For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

Here’s what OP assumed you knew they meant to say:

TAYLOR SWIFT IS HETEROSEXUAL

just in case it wasn’t fucking clear

It’s so obvious too. Hetero: the other or opposite. Sexual: relating to sexuality. She’s the opposite of sexual. Heterosexuals are often aromantic but not always, which may be the origin of their confusion.

I thought I was being clever with the last bit, too. After a year, I still can’t figure out whether Lemmy hates wordplay or doesn’t understand it.
