Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
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.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts
-
/c/Memes@lemmy.world - General memes

i'm all for not shaming people and everything, but we also do need to be conscious about what we're buying and consuming.
You probably don't need a macbook, and if you do need a laptop, there are almost certainly better options that are cheaper, and more repairable. Please don't buy a macbook, they aren't good products. (though now with M series macs they actually do work, kind of)
consumerism is not good, we shouldn't be encouraging it. We should be encouraging conscious spending.
