I have been posting naked girls daily for almost 2 years before Tumblr came up with a stupid idea of “protecting minors from harm”and made all explicit blogs closed from the world. Now you can’t see anything in this blog, nor find it from Google, unless you are logged in to Tumblr. This is against my principles and therefore I will not post here anymore. The Internet must be open to anyone unless they want to filter content, not the other way around.

Tumblr used to be one of the last strongholds of freedom left in the Internet, but unfortunately this bastion has fallen and joined the Evil (Facebook, Instagram and others who are closed within themselves and withold the content from the outside world).

Fuck you, Tumblr. I quit.

Fucking Fuck It All…

Well, I’m late to this party of having something to say about the announcement Tumblr made today, but fuck it, I’ve still got some things to say, and I need to get this out - even if it’ll only live here for a few weeks.

We’ve had a lot of messages today, asking for our thoughts, and for most of the day I’ve not known what to say. The shock has left me a little speechless. Now I’m home and not putting out fires at work, and I’ve had a few glasses of a really good 2001 Shiraz so fuck it - I’m feeling more inclined to put down some thoughts.

Both Mrs. and I have a had some things come up in our lives that we’ve had to deal with that have been very difficult. As have many of you. It helps give some perspective to what this is. Is it the worst thing in the world to happen? Is it as bad as some people’s situations all over the world? No to both of those.

I’m not trying to minimize what happened today and how many of us are feeling. It’s a fucking sucker gut punch - and it fucking hurts - it fucking hurts a lot - and it fucking sucks. It makes me angry, sad, and a lot of other emotions. It’s a huge disappointment. This is one of the most Monday things of Monday’s I’ve fucking heard of in a long fucking time.

That being said, we’ll all find a way to move on - but most importantly we’ll hopefully find a way to move on still in contact with those we’ve met here that we’ve made genuine connections with. Tumblr can’t take that away for good.

That’s the most important thing to us. The connections. We’ve made some amazing connections with people here. Real people just like us. Normal everyday people who found a safe place to share their desires and thoughts around sex (and many other topics). We’ve gotten to know some fellow Tumblrs very well. Some we’ve had the chance to meet in person, and some we’ve even gotten to fuck. All in all a pretty fucking great experience overall.

This place has not just been an escape for us, but also a continuing daily lesson into our desires. We’ve learned so much more about what excites us, and it’s helped us grow so much over the last few years - as people, as a couple, as sexual human beings, as swingers - it’s been eye opening and it’s helped us be able to communicate with each other about things we see, ideas it gives us. We’ve felt accepted, and okay for our desires. Not ashamed of what we do, or what we share. Fuck you Tumblr staff for making it seem like we should be ashamed of having NSFW content.

The header of their post about a “better, more positive Tumblr” was such a horseshit title. I mean fuck you and your self righteous moral posturing. You know what’s positive? Deciding to share with others your experience, thoughts, desires, and showing all sizes, shapes, and colors of body types. Now not only will there no longer be no adult content allowed, they’ve gone so far back with regressive pre-1950’s censorship bullshit like “female-presenting nipples” as content that won’t be allowed. Fuck that. While our blog may not completely go away - we do have a few SFW posts over the last five + years, not sure we’ll try to keep it going for very long after the 17th.

I know some people consider what we do “not classy” - frankly I don’t give a fuck and won’t feel ashamed for sharing what we decided to share. It’s who we are, it’s real, it’s honest. It’s positive and Tumblr can quite frankly fuck off they don’t see it as such.

We won’t disagree that child pornography is completely abhorrent and not something we support either. I find it hard to believe they don’t have a way to monitor that better, but still allow consenting adults to post adult content. But let’s be honest, with all their high moral posturing, this is also about money and their ability to monetize a platform and turn this into another Instagram.

Five + years - that’s how long we’ve had this blog.

Over 328,000 followers, and over 122,000 posts - over 4,420 of them our own personal content posts.

We’ve taken ninety eight different photo sets and shared them here.

This is what it comes down to?!?

I said it before - this fucking hurts. I hate having the rug pulled out from under me and that’s exactly what this feels like. We’re grateful for so much here - the people we’ve connected with, what we’ve learned about ourselves, what we’ve been able to share that’s been appreciated - there’s a long list of what to be thankful for - and we genuinely are.

Where to go next for us? I don’t know. It’ll take some time over the next few days to find the best options. Open to suggestions. Again, most importantly, we’ll find a way to keep connected to those we’ve made friendships with. That will outlast the bullshit of this decision.

As I’m writing this, listening to some music to help process this, these words came across my headphones to my ears and heart…

“I have lost a hero, I have lost a friend, but for you darling, I’d do it all again” because “You’re the only motherfuckers in the city who can handle me.” - St. Vincent

Good Bye Tumblr.

As we say our goodbyes and mourn the loss of our freedom I have come to inform my faithful and loved followers that I am importing my tumblr posts to a new domain as we speak! I mourn the loss of such an amazing platform. I wish there was alternative options as such but unfortunately death becomes us.

staff:

Since its founding in 2007, Tumblr has always been a place for wide open, creative self-expression at the heart of community and culture. To borrow from our founder David Karp, we’re proud to have inspired a generation of artists, writers, creators, curators, and crusaders to redefine our culture and to help empower individuality.

Over the past several months, and inspired by our storied past, we’ve given serious thought to who we want to be to our community moving forward and have been hard at work laying the foundation for a better Tumblr. We’ve realized that in order to continue to fulfill our promise and place in culture, especially as it evolves, we must change. Some of that change began with fostering more constructive dialogue among our community members. Today, we’re taking another step by no longer allowing adult content, including explicit sexual content and nudity (with some exceptions).  

Let’s first be unequivocal about something that should not be confused with today’s policy change: posting anything that is harmful to minors, including child pornography, is abhorrent and has no place in our community. We’ve always had and always will have a zero tolerance policy for this type of content. To this end, we continuously invest in the enforcement of this policy, including industry-standard machine monitoring, a growing team of human moderators, and user tools that make it easy to report abuse. We also closely partner with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and the Internet Watch Foundation, two invaluable organizations at the forefront of protecting our children from abuse, and through these partnerships we report violations of this policy to law enforcement authorities. We can never prevent all bad actors from attempting to abuse our platform, but we make it our highest priority to keep the community as safe as possible.

So what is changing?

Posts that contain adult content will no longer be allowed on Tumblr, and we’ve updated our Community Guidelines to reflect this policy change. We recognize Tumblr is also a place to speak freely about topics like art, sex positivity, your relationships, your sexuality, and your personal journey. We want to make sure that we continue to foster this type of diversity of expression in the community, so our new policy strives to strike a balance.

Why are we doing this?

It is our continued, humble aspiration that Tumblr be a safe place for creative expression, self-discovery, and a deep sense of community. As Tumblr continues to grow and evolve, and our understanding of our impact on our world becomes clearer, we have a responsibility to consider that impact across different age groups, demographics, cultures, and mindsets. We spent considerable time weighing the pros and cons of expression in the community that includes adult content. In doing so, it became clear that without this content we have the opportunity to create a place where more people feel comfortable expressing themselves.

Bottom line: There are no shortage of sites on the internet that feature adult content. We will leave it to them and focus our efforts on creating the most welcoming environment possible for our community.

So what’s next?

Starting December 17, 2018, we will begin enforcing this new policy. Community members with content that is no longer permitted on Tumblr will get a heads up from us in advance and steps they can take to appeal or preserve their content outside the community if they so choose. All changes won’t happen overnight as something of this complexity takes time.

Another thing, filtering this type of content versus say, a political protest with nudity or the statue of David, is not simple at scale. We’re relying on automated tools to identify adult content and humans to help train and keep our systems in check. We know there will be mistakes, but we’ve done our best to create and enforce a policy that acknowledges the breadth of expression we see in the community.

Most importantly, we’re going to be as transparent as possible with you about the decisions we’re making and resources available to you, including more detailed information, product enhancements, and more content moderators to interface directly with the community and content.

Like you, we love Tumblr and what it’s come to mean for millions of people around the world. Our actions are out of love and hope for our community. We won’t always get this right, especially in the beginning, but we are determined to make your experience a positive one.

tumblr is kicking people out of their blogs, making them reset their passwords and wiping their blog themes stating it had “suspicious code”

go into your blog themes HTML code RIGHT NOW and copy & paste EVERYTHING into a new google docs or whatever you use so you can save it and not have it wiped from tumblrs fucking incompetence at running a website

IF YOUVE BEEN AFFECTED BY THIS! USE TUMBLRS THEME RECOVERY TOOL

I’ll be recreating my tumblr there

Out of literally 104 flagged posts going back to the very beginning of my Tumblr account, there were maybe five posts that had explicit content that I deleted.  I challenged the other 99 posts and ya know what, I only lost ONE appeal.  Fuck Tumblr and it’s bullshit algorithm. 

Fuck you tumblr

try to flag this one more time tumblr i dare you

i just spent so long censoring a pic to try to post on here and i got flagged immediately i’m so tired of this shit

Guys, we’re 4 days away from the Tumblr BS…let’s spend them the way we know it

Can we just agree that clothes are nothing more than a cage and we would feel so much better if we didn’t have to think about wearing any?

Reblog if you agree

Okay Tumblr this is getting ridiculous. A gif of a spider chilling on my hand is adult content? I see tons of actual porn videos still up but this is what gets flagged?

So I don’t know if you’ve all seen this ad

But it’s always there when I’m scrolling through my dash

And it’s disgusting, and it makes me wanna puke

And I don’t wanna see it anymore

But I can’t get rid of it, because it’s paid for.

And I did not consent to see this

I did not ask for or go looking for this

But it’s there anyways, and there’s no way to censor it

But remember: titties are bad.
