15 Tumblr Posts that Belong in a Museum

Source: mememaster on Tumblr

Tumblr has been around for well over a decade at this point, and in internet time, that might as well be centuries.

The wealth of culture amassed within those years far outweighs the historical remains of some ancient civilizations. You could fill entire massive libraries with the content on this platform, and one or two of the posts aren’t even about Doctor Who.

But a few have risen to the top. They’ve become legends. They are part of our heritage. These are the Tumblr posts that belong in a museum.

15. Lorem ipsum

Some sort of test post, apparently. Or else this “Demo” is an ancient god of some kind.

14. No it’s Becky

Then she infamously had a t-shirt made of this and worse it.
