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.

  1. Sure, but this just replaces the music with the sound of my breathing. There's always something in my brain. The only meditative peace I can get is in a flow state e.g. working out.
  2. Yup, damn near always. Yak yak yak goes the brain.
  3. Usually just vocals unless I focus on the music, or if it's instrumental then I hear everything.
  4. Music that I can play in my brain on demand is usually music I listen to all the time already, with some exceptions. Don't have exact data on this, but it depends on context - if it's my favorite band then it'll stick around after 1 listen. If it's someone else or music I dislike it may take several listens.
  5. I play The Axe by which I mean a ukulele. Not particularly well IMO but it's fun and relaxing.
  6. I don't think so, but I can identify most songs I've heard before pretty quickly if I know the band or song name. It's like an involuntary Shazam.
