Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
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.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

"We found a drug that extends someone's perception of time. Imagine having small moments of extended peace during a busy week, or time to decompress after trauma, or using it to prolong pleasurable moments..."
"Okay but what if we used it to make hell a reality?"
Didn't we literally have an episode of DS9 about this? O'Brien tries to kill himself because of it.
When you said busy week it kinda clicked lmao.
What if we got 7 day work week with 12 hours a day, but you get one single 8 minute break with this stuff.
Well either that or underperforming employees get 2 minutes in the time prison idk.
Jokes on them I LOVE the time prison
I'll spend a thousand years learning to speak in limericks and then we'll see who's in a prison of cruel design
Perhaps in civilized countries it will be used that way.
But for others the appeal of slave labor, political donations, and bloodlust as justice is too strong.
