One can hope, right? Pleeeeeease let it be what I think it is….
I’ve been in contact with ‘The Guy’ who is over seeing the production of Cumblr.com and has informed me he has a team put together and they’re aiming for a December 17th launch! Please help share this information more for a great success!
In response to the NSFW ban being enacted by Tumblr Staff, on December 17th 2018 I propose that we all log off of our Tumblr accounts for 24 hours.
The lack of respect and communication between staff and users is stark. Users have been begging staff to delete the porn bot outbreak, which has plagued the website for well over a year. The porn bots oftentimes send people asks and messages, trying to get them to go to a website full of viruses. They also spam advertisements on others posts.
Users have also begged that Tumblr ban neo-nazis, child porn, and pedophiles, all which run rampant on the site. The site/app got so bad that it was taken off the app store.
However, instead of answering the users, Tumblr has instead taken the liberty to ban all NSFW content, regardless of age. But users have already run into issues of their SFW content being marked as sensitive and being flagged as NSFW, not allowing them to share their work.
Not only does this discriminate again content creators, but it also discriminates against sex workers. Disgustingly, the ban will be enacted on December 17 which is also International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers.
This ban is disgusting, and while I (and plenty of others) welcome porn bots and child porn being banned, the Tumblr filtration system is broken. It tags artistic work’s nipples as NSFW (when it is art), it tags SFW art as NSFW (when it is not), and does not stop the porn bots, neo-nazis and dozens of other issues.
This ban is discriminatory. This ban is ineffective. This ban is unacceptable.
To protest, log off of your Tumblr account for the entirety of November 17th. Log off at 12 am EST or 9PM PST and stay off for 24 hours. Don’t post. Don’t log on. Don’t even visit the website. Don’t give them that sweet ad revenue.
Tumblr’s stock has already taken a hard hit. Let’s make it tank. Maybe then they will listen to the users.
Okay so ive never liked tagging and I very much am a silent follower (I love all of your content by the way!!) but I honestly that feel that this is important. You have what’s most important - FOLLOWERS - and you can really signal boost this shit. Tumblr’s response has been to take down sfw and queer content instead of the child porn, pornbots and neonazi content, which is NOT acceptable. So many people have had their content flagged for NO REASON AT ALL. not to mention that this was done only after apple removed it from the app store. Its clear staff doesn’t listen to their consumers’ demands and fix shit when they need to,, so this is the best way to get staff’s attention and LISTEN to what we want,,, so please reblog this if you support it, and let your followers and mutuals know!! ♥️♥️♥️
I usually wouldn’t share something like this on my art blog, but this is the kind of friendly and peaceful protesting that I’m into. I do not like fearmongering, I do not like panic inducing posts but this… this is something I want to support.
Let’s do this, people! And please share so it reaches more users on this website!
all ships are great, whether they’re close to Canon or not. whether they’re gay, lesbian, hetero or whatever, your ship is great and valid. bashing another ship just because you like a certain ship is pointless and childish. your otp, ot3, ot4, ect,, is valid and cute!! don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!!
- midoriya and tokoyami bonding over dnd in the common room
- “Yes. I am a level 12 druid shifter. Dark shadow is a level 6 rogue.”
- “That’s so cool Tokoyami! It’s been a bit since I played, but I’m a level 10 warlock, maybe we could campaign together!”
- Bakugou’s about to call them fucking losers
- but then Kirishima’s like “bro hold my weights” and he just launches into how he used to live for this kind of stuff back in middle school and about how he’s a level 17 dragonborn fighter
- Midoriya and Tokoyami are so utterly taken aback and impressed that they all just start rambling and Bokugou’s just u p s e t
- Todoroki walks in and just sort of…listens? he doesn’t know what Midoriya’s talking about but he sounds enthusiastic and when they make eye contact, Izuku’s eyes just light up and he whispers “half-elf”
- Todoroki is intrigued
- an hour of brainstorming and explaining later and Todoroki’s starting off as a level 1 half-elf sorcerer.
- “His name is Shouto.”
- “Todoroki are you su-”
- “Shouto.”
- Kaminari barges in, “DO YOU NEED A HUMAN BARD”
- followed by Shinsou who reluctantly confesses he’s a level 5 tiefling paladin because of course Kaminari had to get him into it
- Bokugou’s just f e d u p and starts yelling about how stupid dnd is and about how lame this entire conversation is and how he’d never be caught dead playing dnd and Kirishima just sighs and is like;
“Too bad, you would’ve made a pretty cool barbarian.”
“A fucking what.”
- It takes Kirishima an entire hour to explain and convince Bakugou that he can’t just start as a level 20 barbarian goliath. They manage to negotiate it down to level 3.
- Ochako comes back from practice in time for the start of the campaign and she just opens up a stray notebook and it’s got SO MANY notes and weapons and stats and she just levels them with a dangerous glint in her eyes, “level 18 orc, fighter class, when are we starting”

And Santa’s all like, “You know, I can handle a few spelling mistakes, I got this,” and Lucifer is like “They’re addressed to me, fuck off, I’m doing it.”
Lucifer being protective of his fanmail is ceaselessly entertaining.
*deep and booming Satan voice* “Belphagor!”
“You summoned me, Your Infernal Majesty?”
“Belphagor, do we have any Barbie dolls in our stores?”
“We certainly do. Would you like one whose eyes glow red or one that chants Your praises in the middle of the night?”
*deep and booming Satan sigh* “Ugh, are all our Barbies possessed?”
“I am pleased to say so, Your Infernal Majesty.”
“Well, un-possess one of them. You heard me! Melody Lian wants a veterinarian Barbie, the one with a cat not the one with a dog. And Belphagor! Make sure the cat has the right number of limbs this time.”
“And let us see, Isaiah Stanfield who asked for a musical instrument will be receiving… a kazoo?”
“The instrument I judged to be most annoying yet still within his likely ability to play, my lord!”
“So young Isaiah will receive this miserable piece of plastic, apparently the finest gift you think I can offer him from my vast holdings, on Christmas morning only to have it confiscated by his parents by New Year’s. Leaving him with no present at all.” *Satan grows even taller, his voice drops dangerously* “Do you wish to make a fool of me, Belphagor?”
“N-no, Your Infernal Majesty! Please, mercy!”
“You will have a suitable present for Isaiah by the time I return. And I expect no more mistakes.” *Satan storms off, muttering* “A million demons at my beck and call and I still have to do everything in this Pit myself…”
