Tumblr will ban all adult content on December 17th

About this…

If you’re someone affected by the platform’s definition of what they’re going to be banning, I strongly suggest you back up your Tumblr blog. RIGHT NOW. Info on how to do that is here.

I can’t think why my own Tumblr would be affected, but I’ll be backing things up too… because in situations like this one might expect the algorithm to get a little out of hand and make mistakes that one might or might not be able to recover from. (See this article.)

For safety’s sake – because I’d very much dislike losing the content I’ve shared with other people here – I’l be embodying my Tumblr content in a new WordPress blog over the coming days. I’ll share the address here when it’s ready, for those who might be interested.

But in the meantime, seriously: friends and cousins, back yourselves up.

This is a bigger deal than “horny is banned”, sadly. I’ve got text posts that are completely clean blacklisted from my own damn blog search; the same for art, just based on pixel groupings and a few buzzwords.

Censorship Is a Slippery Slope, especially when it’s done by computers, even moreso when the people behind the computers are the monumental dumbasses that run this site.

Tumblr User: Horny is illegal! Ha ha!

Tumblr staff, banning that user because they posted a picture of their golden retriever that contained too many “flesh-colored” pixels: Horny is illegal.

I’M SO MAD, TUMBLR FUCKED UP MY ASK.

@localrobotfucker Here are my answers to 3 and 13 for the ask game

3. Have you ever unfollowed someone over fandom opinions?

Not that I know of, but I know I would do this if the person either posted about it incessantly or if it was an extremely uncomfortable topic like condoming incest, rape, pedophilia, etc.

13. Unpopular opinion about XXX character?

*Jevil is partially in the right when he tries to kill you, because (in my opinion) he is killing YOU, the player, knowing that Kris, Susie, and Ralsei are just pawns for you to get the reward (kind of like how Sans was killing you more than killing Frisk). People blame Jevil for trying to kill the trio, but if he knows they’ll be reset and come back as soon as you accept continue, why not play along? Part of the reason I think this is true is because if you decline getting the key parts to open the door and playing the game he will say something like “How can you decline when you’re already playing?” Don’t get me wrong, he certainly addresses the trio multiple times, but in that line I think he’s addressing both of you.There are a few more but I’d need to rewatch the quest to list them. I also don’t believe he went “insane” until right up before he got locked out. I think he was in a Plato’s Cave situation, where everyone else was living in their flat game world unaware that there is more beyond it, and he was the only Darkner who knew the truth. If you know the literal truth about your very existence but no one believes you, it will certainly drive you a little bonkers.

The reason I call it unpopular is that it’s mostly just speculation, but that’s what I believe :3

5. Has fandom ever ruined a pairing for you? (btw love your fanfic “Cleaner cotton”, sorry if I mistaken you with creator of a fic)

Oh my goodness, thank you so much! You’re not mistaken and new ones coming soon :3

And in response to the ask, I wouldn’t necessarily say a fandom has “ruined” a pairing itself for me because I’m pretty good at separating the content of something from the fans/haters, but there are certain ships that tended to get extremely hounded with ahem..suggestive images, even when the characters are minors, and it ruined my desire to associate WITH that pairing even if I still liked it from an innocent perspective.

I hope this doesn’t put anyone off, but I grew up a huge fan of My Little Pony as a little girl (gen 3 ftw), and was a fan into my early teens. I really liked Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash’s relationship dynamic because foils like that help each other grow as people and I like that kind of wholesome shit. But of course, that fandom is RIPE with sleezy pervs who don’t know how to tag their gross stuff, and so I avoided the tag as much as possible.
