Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Extremely passionate niche communities about seemingly mundane things are my absolute favorite thing about the internet.

Have you seen Ian's Shoelace Site? It's serious business. And actually useful.

That's so weird I taught myself how to tie my shoes in the "Ian knot" when I was like 12 to seem special and I had no idea it was a whole site.

For anyone out there who doesn't know it already, learn the Ian knot. Life saver

funny enough learning the Ian knot is the only way I'm able to reliably tie my shoes. bunny ear method works half the time, the standard knot just doesn't translate between my brain and fingers

Oh wow, that's the website where I learned to tie my shoelaces about 20 years ago. My shoelaces kept coming undone and I finally went to look for a solution online. Turns out I've been using a granny knot all my life until then.

There was this fantastic list on chocolate bars and taste per dollar for each. Sadly it's buried by SEO listicles and I've never been able to find it again
