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.

Reminds me of the Simpsons episode "You Only Move Twice" where Homer moves the family to work for a supervillain (who Homer doesn't realize is a supervillain) but the guy unironically is an amazing boss and employer.
The first Austin Powers movie deleted scenes show Powers killing a henchman then it cuts to a woman at home or friends out celebrating a birthday when they get the call that their husband or friend was killed at work by a steamroller or laser sharks or whatever.
And none of the viewers thought to look in the mirror and ask - am I Homer? Just because your boss doesn't have a flamethrower doesn't mean the work isn't bad for the world.
Tbf, Homer's normal boss is the supervillain without the flamethrower. The Simpsons writers made that dichotomy explicit.

"Sugar?" pulls a handful out of his pocket "Sorry it's not in packets." ... "Cream?" reaches for pocket again "Sorry it's not in packets."
And they cut that last bit from the rerun?! Pfft. That's gold!
They did?! That's criminal. That episode is near perfect.
Yeah, IIRC, it was only aired in the initial run, and even then only the first few networks to run it. 🤷🏽♂️ Puritans.
