For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

I made the icon using multiple creative commons svg resources, the banner is this.

This is my favourite kind of mistakes!
It shows you that someone knew enough to pick a word like CALIFORNIA, but for them, A and R looked the same, much like C and O. Something I totally saw with primary school kids learning our alphabet.

It's like us mistaking 手 and 毛, or 人 and 入, 目 and 日, etc. Looks idiotic when you're a native, but a fair mistake when you are a beginner.
