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.

At no time was that ever possible
I had a big break in my college years. My first year of college in 2002 at a state school, tuition, dorm, and a meal plan combined came out to about 10k a year. I remember that the dorm and meal plan combined was $1419 a semester, and ALL unmarried students with fewer than 60 hours under the age of 25 were required to live in them unless they had immediate gamily within 30 miles.
By the time I went back to college and graduated in 2016, just the tuition at the same school was over 1,000 an hour, and the dorms were like like 4k a semester with no meal plan and there was a lottery to get to live in them because they tore most of them down to cut costs and increase rent.
