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.

I'm pretty sure this started with Gen X, increased with Gen Y (excuse me, Millennials), and has significantly increased with Gen Z (Zoomers).

At least Gen X didn't get some stupid moniker that stuck.

Gen X didn’t do much of anything, really, except be forgotten

As an old millennial, fuck that term, I'm gen y and always have been

Always felt the same. I grew up being told I was Gen Y, until suddenly I wasn't anymore.
