Baiae, the submerged city in the Gulf of Naples.

Throughout the 1st century BC, the city of Baiae was a retreat and leisure destination for emperors and wealthy Romans. Tectonic movements between the 3rd and 4th centuries AD caused much of the coastline between Pozzuoli and Cumae, including Baiae, to sink. Today, its remains lie 5 meters below the sea.

The number of people responding to this post claiming to be bodhisattvas is hilarious. If you'd resolved your karma you wouldn't be on tumblr.

A warlord asked his teacher, a great monk, what he would do in his next lifetime.

“Oh,” he said, “I think I will spend a few lifetimes on Tumblr, most likely.”

The warlord was astonished. “Your merit and virtue are renowned far and wide!” he responded. “Why on earth would you be condemned to Tumblr?”

“If I did not post on Tumblr,” his teacher responded, “who would be your mutual?”
