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.

"rascacielo" (lit "sky scratcher") is the spanish term for skyscraper. Lots of english-primary students think that's a weird one until they reflect on the english term.
Japanese is the same too: 摩天楼 (_matenrou_sky scraping/rubbing tower). As a kid I thought the ma part was 魔, which means "evil," so I thought it meant "evil sky tower."
We love to give the sky a little tickle
