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:

They're fungible, and can be transferred into each other easily. They have the same value but different situational utility.

Value is not and cannot be derived solely based on utility in a vacuum. This is proven by the marginal utility of too many titties. While one pair of titties may have value based on their utility, each subsequent pair of titties decreases in utility, as you only have so many hands and so much time.

Sure but it quickly becomes meaningless. Once you have a billion titties, now you don't even have the time to look at them all. That's why a sharp increase on the rate of the progressive annual titty tax is very important.

Too many titties - does not compute, pls provide a better metaphor.
