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:

Yeah I'd give this as a prime example of a joke that belonged in containment. It's funny in trans spaces because it plays up internal stereotypes and feels like a comedic exaggeration of if not your friend group, one you know. But please for the love of all that's holy I don't want to see my brother in law asking me to explain this joke. And I really don't want bigots to see this and treat it as gospel instead of community teasing. I would honestly rather explain transgendercirclejerk posts from a decade ago to cis people, despite the fact that early in transition I was the person this post is joking about.

it's honestly crazy how wild memes are to non-internet people. I showed my mom the delta p meme thats on main right now and she had no idea what delta p even is, and you cant really explain how you find divers turning to a tube of toothpaste funny

I can't imagine if I had to explain why I upvoted a meme on the intricacies of transfem intercourse to someone I know irl 😭
