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.

This is why I try not to tell my kid how I feel about his stuff; even if I think he’s being weird, someone else might end up loving them for them later on, and I would hate to rob that from them.
Yeah exactly. What to do adult might just seem weird and part of an obsession (and likely is) can still be an idea what other kids would go crazy over and be worth a lot!
Everyone interesting is weird in some way. I don't have kids, but I've got nieces and nephews. I tell them all the time weird people are the interesting ones.
I don't know if it's because of that or because Gen Z is pretty accepting of weird shit in general, but they're all pretty comfortable being little weirdos.
