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.

Should they then also pay rent in prison? :D (not serious)

Oh boy, let me tell you about pay-for-stay.

At $249 per day, prison stays leave ex-inmates deep in debt - AP News (2022)

Essentially, that already happens. They get charged for rent. And food. And medical care. And whatever else can be charged.

Ok not funny anymore. What a dystopia! Thanks for the info.

I know you're not being serious, but for the sake of the argument, if we're going to force a person, against their will, to be in a certain place for a certain amount of time then we should have to cover all the basic needs that that person may have.
