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.

Several comments here provide evidence to the contrary.

And maybe that's the problem. The people who are assholes online don't think about there being real, earnest people behind the other keyboards.

Anonymity and the abstraction of interacting online can and does weaken the sense of social contract for many people, unfortunately.

And it does count. Because what one says online can and does affect others in a real way.
