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.

Is this viral marketing? 'Cause if it is, it's kinda working.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 112 points 9 months ago (7 children)

Dude I wish. Do you know how many of my posts have been reported for 'viral' or 'guerilla marketing'? As if there's someone out here paying my fat gay ass to post a random meme about fuckin Dennys. I genuinely got a screenshot of a report saying as much about a post of mine yesterday.

I would gladly shill out, you fuckin kidding me? Daddy desperately needs new clothes. The last clothes that I bought that weren't underwear or socks was a pair of pants 5 years ago.

[–] PotentialProblem@sh.itjust.works 20 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Any tips on not having to buy new socks every 3 months? God damn socks develop holes far too quickly.

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 24 points 9 months ago (1 children)

When you buy socks, buy a lot of socks. Should last you longer than a smaller number of pairs of socks.

[–] pikmeir@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

This. Socks don't "expire" in a few years if you're storing them in your house or a closet. You can save them new for later and now you have new socks.

[–] Zoot@reddthat.com 8 points 9 months ago

Check your shoes, get an insert if you can to help with your back. Should also save on socks as a side!

[–] fadingembers@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 9 months ago

I for one, greatly enjoy your posts

[–] InfiniteStruggle@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 months ago (4 children)

Bruh send suggestions for where you buy your clothes. Clothes that lasted 5 fucking years? GIMME!

[–] mihnt@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Uh, blue collar clothes. Shit ain't cheap though. Duluth Trading, Carhartt, 5.11, etc...

Duluth I know has stretchy denim. Meant for comfort but it helps with minor weight changes.

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Become (more?) familiar with the needle and thread. Things can last a long time when they need to.

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago

To make your clothes last longer:

  • Buy natural fibers instead of polyester, they take heating and bending a lot better than plastic

  • Wash cold and without bleach unless otherwise necessary, both cause more wear on the clothes. Fabric softeners are also not great and will make your clothing less absorbent, which is miserable when you’re sweaty

  • Dry in a dryer minimally if you can avoid it, they’re very rough on clothes. And no dryer sheets, that’s just coating your fabrics in oils

  • Inspect and repair small tears before they become big tears. Patch big tears before it falls apart

You don’t have to do everything on the list to get good returns on longevity, I always use a dryer have a few 20ish year old shirts that are just now coming to the end of their lifespan from being worn to death.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Walmart. I'm just careful with my clothes, use cold water and gentle cycles

[–] Blackout@kbin.social 7 points 9 months ago

Chill, I just sent your check today. Thanks for hyping the latest Kia Sorento. Boss upstairs says you da best shiller he's ever known.

[–] DrWeevilJammer@lemmy.ml 5 points 9 months ago

I still have a pair of undies from Mervyns, which closed 15 years ago.

[–] model_tar_gz@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Damn dude, when one of the best memers of our time is hangin’ on by threads. You should get paid for your Car Talk with Martok series. Tell the Founders you need a raise.

[–] experbia@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

I bought a new pair of jeans recently, because the old ones were nearing blowout territory and I needed to go out to a restaurant for dinner. I feel unreasonably ostentatious for briefly owning two pairs of pants.

"it's actually surprisingly simple."

Proceeds to explain 4 dimensional chess in several long paragraphs

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago

It is surprisingly simple.

According to the picture, it highlights possible moves. Why understand the concept when you can just select the best spot? /s(but only barely)

[–] paddirn@lemmy.world 37 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Whenever I start that game up after a long lull, I have no idea what’s going on when I first get into it. After my first few games I feel like I start to get a better grasp of it and I’m like, “Ok, now I’ve got it.” Then I just get thwomped and can never do as good as when I had no idea what I was doing.

[–] GabrielBell12fi@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago

Oddly -- that's how I feel about most games.

[–] IWantToFuckSpez@kbin.social 37 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Just checked the Steam page. The screenshots look like a version control tutorial.

[–] rockerface@lemm.ee 32 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Isn't version control basically a multiverse for code?

[–] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 10 points 9 months ago

And now my brain is leaking out my ears.

[–] piecat@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Huh

A multiverse is really a 5+Dimensions situation

[–] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 13 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I'm not big on chess, but I'm excited that 4D Golf releases next month! It will include a level editor too.

[–] SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz 13 points 9 months ago (1 children)

My kid asked for this game! He's 12. He really likes it. He says it's a solid 7.

[–] optissima@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)
[–] SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz 16 points 9 months ago (1 children)

There are infinite possibilities you see..

(Seven out of nine, he says)

[–] devilish666@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Whoever made that game smoke some serious crack-shroom-benadryl when made the game

[–] perviouslyiner@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Saw an actual first-person 4D game being developed and it's even more fascinating than these ones which show slices instead of the real insanity of the projection!

[–] copygirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago

Be sure to check the rest of the channel. The 4D golf game is set to be released next month.

[–] sharkwellington@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I vaguely remember there being some sort of cheese where you just change something stupidly far back in the past that was a bit of a balance headache, wonder if they did something about it.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

That's how muktiversal time travel works

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Best recommendation: perfect for chess novices 😄
