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

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

I gotta tell you as a 42 year old man I had pretty serious cancer. I made it through but now at 50 my give a fuck is all gone. I switched to kilts about 6 years ago and I don't even own pants anymore. I fucking love them and I don't give two shits about what anyone thinks or says. That's their problem not mine.

I don't like wearing pants much, usually only when it's really cold or something formal. At my previous job I was the only person who wore shorts. Some people from the sales department were jealous because they weren't allowed to wear them.

I had planned that if they tried to enforce it with us that I'd swap to kilts, and if that was a problem I'd have demanded that the ladies not wear skirts or dresses as that would be sexist.

I quit before it came to that, but a few more people started wearing shorts before I'd left, and that was enough.

do you buy online or local? I am thinking of getting a kilt but when I buy clothing I either buy thrift shop or fancy as fuck.

Yea I'm kinda the same. Sloppy 90's guy. I mostly buy kilts online from Damn near Kilt "em but I am Canadian so the company forces me to buy through amazon, which sucks balls but what can you do. I like to have real pockets and they're one of the only manufacturers that have a style with this feature.
