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.

When you learn minimalists weren't actually about the looks but about keeping stupid adult responsibilities on the low.

Yes!

Wife was saying big, far away houses are getting cheaper and we should buy and retire there. Nope, the more space the bigger the mess she'll do. Can't literally take 2 steps further to drop whatever it's in her hand. I have a dozen reading glasses spread through the house, usually accumulating at a few preferred places.

Case in point: I replaced my coffee machine with a chemex. So much easier to maintain.

I just eat the beans. Nothing to maintain

I eat the dirt the coffee grows in and suntan my butthole. No relation to the topic at hand, just thought you should know.

How do you keep your butt cheeks spread during the tanning process? Asking for a friend.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I have a glass buttplug with a handle of sorts that pushes the cheeks apart. It's non UV resistant so does not interfere with the tanning. On the plus side, the interior of the rectum&anal cavity also get tanned with the glass transmitting the light.

Wouldn't a clear, plastic, speculum oris, be better, and not run the change of curved/pointed glass focusing light in dangerous ways?

For anyone else who doesn't know what a chemex is and can't be arsed to google it:

Can't beat $6 melitta plastic cone. Unbreakable, and pour straight into cup so less things to wash.

Btw doesn't v60 made of heavy, fragile ceramic make the water cold? Plastic is cheaper and better, change my mind.

Plastic 1-cup V60 is about the same price.

The costs is not in the dripper. It’s the €225 coffee grinder, the €200 pouring kettle and €200 coffee scale. Not to mention the specialty coffee at €75 or more per kilo.

I use a plastic v60

I just drink instant coffee

I use a phin filter.

Yep, I mentioned to my mum a few times that I'm 'baking' in my microwave, which I know is terrible for this task. So, she'll tell me I should be getting an oven, I should be getting an air fryer etc. etc.. I always tell her, I don't have the space for it, but really, I don't want to be cleaning yet another appliance.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I have an oven that's also a microwave and can also cook with a special pan. It's also smaller than a normal oven, so it's closer to an air fryer and heats up really quickly

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago

That sounds a lot like adult responsibilities of ordering a new microwave oven and disposing the old one. :P

I mean, yeah, that does sound cool. I was kind of expecting your comment, because I've also been eyeing those.
But yeah, I'll have to see. I'm extremely picky with such appliances, so researching one I like will genuinely take a lot of time...
