Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
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.
Sister Communities:
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts
/c/Memes@lemmy.world - General memes
My favorite original English accent (or English-to-English, so to speak, as you say with German-to-English) is the Jamaican accent. Some reggae shows on the radio, I tune in as much for the DJ's voice as for the music.
Go listen to Linton Kwesi Johnson narrating the history of reggae in a BBC Sounds documentary, to see what I mean. What a voice, my god, it goes down like dark honey, a thing of beauty.
