Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

In my experience, the hard part of writing a 600 word essay isn't getting to 600 words, it's not going too far over that! Once you get into the flow, it can be hard to stop in time.
Right? You literally only need an opening, like 3 points, and a closing. If it's a good topic, I'm going way past that
The target word count makes a nice whooshing sound as it goes by, then comes the painful task of deleting half of what you wrote.
