Welcome to /c/Tumblr

All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CursedThis 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 PostsSome 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.

Ambulances cost in Australia too, very expensive.

I was involuntary sectioned once, and the ride to the hospital cost me $1200.

I now pay for insurance, about $300 a year for ambulance and dental. I recently had crushing chest pains while driving out in the middle of nowhere, and they sent me two ambulances, each from different towns. That would have cost me $4k without insurance, but cost me $0 with insurance

The costs for ambulances varies between states, here in qld the ambulance is free and if I remember correctly in Canberra you won't be charged for specific emergencies.
