The real cherry on this shit cake is that no one I’ve spoken to is getting any kind of email or notification that their posts have been flagged as explicit.
Because you thought your blog was SFW, and the ban-bot is losing its fucking mind, and no one told you that you’d been targetted.
So like, please. If you see someone has been flagged as NSFW incorrectly, let them know.
Because tumblr sure fucking won’t.
Also, I’d encourage any content creators, especially artist, to check their posts themselves, even if you don’t think you have anything that would be flagged – several of my sfw, black and white line drawings from nearly a year back were flagged. God knows why, but I think it’s safe to say even avoiding flesh tones will not guarantee your work won’t be flagged. Check your posts.
Yep. I’ve had photos of my dogs flagged, and I’m seeing a lot of other people say the same.
In fact, I’ve scrolled through my posts and found that a post of some photos of mice was flagged on one blog, but not on another. You have to literally scroll through all your posts.
the same people who scream “I’m leaving, this is the final straw” every time staff fucks up are here five minutes later shitposting spongebob memes. let’s be real you were here through the porn bots apocalypse, you gonna be here through the titty prohibition.
I know there’s a lot of tension after Tumblr’s new policy annouced for December 17th, but reblog this if you aren’t leaving Tumblr so that other blogs can know they aren’t going to be completely alone!
– Play “don’t let the balloon hit the floor” with multiple balloons while at the same time playing “the carpet is lava”
– play hide-and seek in a mall or large public place
– dress up in elaborate costumes to do normal things like go to walmart
– play hide-and-seek or something in walmart without getting kicked out
– get on youtube with friends and try to learn a new talent like juggling or dancing or something
– look at the ingredients in the house and google what you can bake with them
– go to a park you’ve never been to before and walk around like you’re an adventurer discovering everything (“I do say! This here looks like a leaf! What an interesting specimen!”)
– just go to a park in general. I mean, they got slides and swings and crap. Get all over that (but don’t be a jerk. kids are awesome. let them play first).
– dig up toys/games from when you were a kid. Try to play Nintendo 64 games on your hi-def TV. Feel yourself get cut by the sharp, pointy pixels.
– make a super tacky music video to a song that you thought was super cool when you were in middle school
– draw with chalk, blow bubbles, jump rope, ride your bike around your neighborhood
in general, just stop pretending you’re too cool to do the fun stuff you did when you were 10. 10-year-olds don’t have money to spend on entertainment, and yet I notice that they have more fun than anybody. Have an awesome summer, everybody.
You are still going to be here after the change. If your characters and relationships you’ve made on this shit storm of a site, is too important to abandon.
I’m looking into options to preserve my fandom’s history, but I’m not expecting a hard crash on the 17th. Hoping for the best, preparing for the worst…
