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.

Ok but what's the "don't stop me now" writing method?

Some other ADHD-addled Tumblr user would play "Don't Stop Me Now" by Queen on repeat while they wrote essays, forcing themselves to finish the paper before they could turn off the song. It worked surprisingly well, except they also conditioned their brain to go into panic-fueled-essay-mode whenever they heard the song in any context

Ah so similar to how when I was first leaning C++ I listened to spirit phone a lot, and now whenever I hear cabinet man I get the sudden urge to commit crimes against memory safety.

Yeah, though I would've expected Touch-Tone Telephone to be the primary trigger
