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.

Wearing natural fabrics helps a lot too. They can absorb and make moisture unavailable so the bacteria aren't able to produce as much of a scent.
Wool is fantastic at this, but other fabrics can too like cotton and linen. Polyester in the other hand does not absorb water at all, it just sits in the surface of the fabric letting the bacteria have their feast and producing smells.
Linen's good at it, cotton's pretty bad, rayon however is excellent (aka viscose, "bamboo" etc) despite being semi-synthetic.
