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.

It's the one Canadian spelling that somehow makes me irrationally angrier than all the rest when it's done wrong.
Centre/center, grey/gray, licence/license, defence/defense, i couldn't give a hoot...
But I will defend to the end that check is when you're looking for things, and cheque is anything to do with money. Neighbour/neighbor is a distant second place.
I was raised to see center and centre as:
Centre = a place Center = middle
If they are verbally pronounced the same way, then one of the spellings must be wrong. French spelling only maquese senco whenn pronouncedu whith thath stylè off pronunciationne.
