Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

My grandma played a lot of Zork through the '80s, and taught me to play it in the '90s.
I imagine from her point of view arcade games got gradually more computerized.
I'm 51 and remember playing Asteroids in the arcade. The state of video games today literally blows my mind, I have a hard time processing what's going on!
I'm close to 50 and have never stopped playing them since Pac-Man in 1983. The big budget ones have gotten too bloated for their own good, though!
