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.

Many parts of the eastern US had the Brood X cicada emerge in 2021.

It is a LOUD and constant droning that you get used to and then forget all about a year later.

If there is a god, north america must have been cursed by them.

Nah, I think Australia can take that one. They probably have human sized cicadas down there.

I don't see why there can't be multiple cursed lands!

Maybe God can multitask.
Maybe cursing a land is a one-time action and doesn't need any more input afterwards.
Maybe there's more than one god!

I do like the pantheon of cursed lands! I'll start sending some cicadas over to Deutschland so you can join us. ;)
