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.

Also, we adapt by dying and having smarter kids. The secret behind the supposed indestructibility of humanity that makes people confident in being dumb is that is something happens, the dumb people die more often then the smart ones.

Of course a shitload of people of every ilk dies, it's just the survivors will be slightly overrepresented in smart people.
