Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
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.

Am I happy with Biden? Nope. But I'm definitely not voting for the cheatin' Cheeto, or anyone even tangentially related.
Hopefully; I sincerely hope that I can act when it's time, rather than being paralyzed by fear. But a lot of people are really good at not directly confronting abuse in a system, aren't they? How many people acted directly to prevent the murder of George Floyd, versus filming and yelling?
