No one ever tell me anything bad about the person who runs this account.
i hate that fucking right-wing nudniks have ruined these topics for us but if you ever see a meme or funny post and the subject is like, ancient rome, medieval europe, military stuff, or guns, check the OP before reblogging. Half the time it turns out to be some brand of fash and 30 seconds of scrolling on their blog will find some racist shit or something similarly hateful
please report any hate speech you find and block them. bonus is that their chud buddies are usually reblogging the OP too so you get a free report/block list
"You can't be a lurker on tumblr." Yes, you absolutely can. I've been quietly reblogging things since 2014 and I haven't interacted with anyone in years.
im so fucking serious when i say that no one is crueler to visibly disabled people than girlies with blue wolfcuts and sharp eyeliner wearing hundred dollar sweaters from shein.
I’m not a bot, I just kinda like to browse and exist here occasionally :))))
