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.

I wonder if Nanni would be satisfied to know that over 3,700 years later, people still know that Ea-Nasir was an asshole?

How do I save comments on kbin?

[โ€“] Deiv@lemmy.ca 23 points 2 years ago

Uninstall kbin and install something better
