As some of you might have noticed I’m no longer active on Tumblr, and I don’t plan to in the foreseeable future. The whole woopin’ can of “no adult content” hurt anything and anyone but the porn spam bots, especially for the queer community.
In December I made the move over to Mastodon, and I’ll be available there from now on:

Compared to a few years ago, the Mastodon community has matured a lot, and it’s now a viable social platform. It’s also way more open and welcoming, something that I’ve sorely missed here on Tumblr.
Feel free to interact with me there~<3

Hey Tumblr–
A couple of weeks ago we announced an update to our Community Guidelines regarding adult content, and we’ve received a lot of questions and feedback from you. First and foremost, we are sorry that this has not been an easy transition and we know we can do a better job of explaining what we’re doing. We knew this wasn’t going to be an easy task and we appreciate your patience as we work through the challenges and limitations of correctly flagging tens of billions of GIFs, videos, and photos.
Today, December 17th, our policy begins to take effect. This means that we will start hiding – not deleting – posts that contain GIFs, videos, and photos from public view that are in violation of our policy. Again, this is a complex problem, and over the coming weeks we will gradually, and carefully, flag more adult content. (Yes, we will still make mistakes, but hopefully fewer and fewer.)
More importantly, we want to clarify the things that you, as a community, have asked about the most.
Tumblr will always be a place to explore your identity. Tumblr has always been home to marginalized communities and always will be. We fully recognize Tumblr’s special obligation to these communities and are committed to ensuring that our new policy on adult content does not silence the vital conversations that take place here every day. LGBTQ+ conversations, exploration of sexuality and gender, efforts to document the lives and challenges of those in the sex worker industry, and posts with pictures, videos, and GIFs of gender-confirmation surgery are all examples of content that is not only permitted on Tumblr but actively encouraged.
We also want to reiterate some important information from our Support post:
Your content will not be deleted. If your post(s) are flagged under the new policy, they will be hidden from public view and will only be visible to you. You can appeal these flags if you feel your content was erroneously marked as adult content. Upcoming feature changes will also make appeals more manageable for those of you with multiple flagged posts. Your blog won’t be deleted if you’ve posted adult content in the past, and there is nothing you need to do if you have interacted with adult content up until now–it will just be flagged and not publicly viewable. Don’t forget too that you can download your content. It’s yours after all, and we don’t take that lightly.
What is still permitted? We’ve heard a lot of concern about what the policy does not permit, but we want to make sure that you also know what is still permitted:
Written content such as erotica, nudity related to political or newsworthy speech, and nudity found in art, specifically sculptures and illustrations, is also stuff that can be freely posted on Tumblr. Although, photorealistic imagery or photography – images, videos, or GIFs – with real humans that include exposed genitals or female-presenting (yeah, we know you hate this term) nipples or depict sex acts is not allowed per our guidelines.
Examples of exceptions that are still permitted but that you may need to appeal if they are misclassified are: exposed female-presenting nipples in connection with breastfeeding, birth or after-birth moments, and health-related situations, such as post-mastectomy or gender confirmation surgery.
The automated tools will improve. Having a post mistakenly flagged as adult totally sucks; we understand and agree that there have been too many wrongfully flagged posts since we announced the policy change. With tens of billions of GIFs, videos, and photos to review and millions of new posts every day, we really need your help to get it right.
The more you help by reporting content that’s not permitted and by appealing content that you believe was flagged incorrectly, the better our automated tools will get at classifying your posts correctly. The more content these tools review, the more they will learn the difference between what’s permitted and what’s not. Most importantly, your content won’t be deleted if erroneously flagged and all appeals will be sent to a real, live human who can make the appropriate call.
We love Tumblr and the communities that call Tumblr home. You are Tumblr. This place has always been a reflection of the voices and communities that thrive here. As you’ve always done, help us continue to shape Tumblr into the community you want it to be.
<3
“this place has always been a reflection of the voices and communities that thrive here” Agreed. Except now it’s a censored and moderated ‘reflection’ of these communities.
Tumblr was supposed to be a safe place where people could enjoy and express what they wanted without judgement or harassment, but now you’re judging what sides of ourselves we can and cannot present to the public. You’re taking away our freedom of creativity and expression, for what?
Go ahead @staff and conform to the rest of society in it’s prejudiced and childish ways, but don’t expect people to want to “shape Tumblr into the community we want it to be” when you’ve just put an iron-barred box around it.
This isn’t about the content you’re restricting, it’s about the pointless restriction itself and the message it sends.
rat bastard
Do you remember them?
What about
It begins
The AfD Cola Wars - no, I’m not kidding
So who esle on here is following the AfD Cola Wars™? So far, we’ve had Coca-Cola, Pepsi, fritz-kola, and Vita Cola.
What’s going on, you ask? Well.
1) Coca Cola: There was a fake Coca-Cola ad condemning the AfD (Alternative for Germany, our resident right-wing party which is chock-full of actual neo-nazis), which was then posted on social media (German link about the story here):
(For a tranquil/reflective (this word is damn hard to translate!) time: Say no to AfD!)
AfD fans online were outraged and declared they wouldn’t drink Coca-Cola anymore
The “Director Public Affairs & Communications“ at Coca-Cola Deutschland, Patrick Kammerer, retweeted the picture, saying “Not every fake is wrong”; and the official Coca-Cola Germany account retweeted his tweet.
2) Pepsi: Someone at the AfD then digintally created and shared this picture:
(For a tranquil/reflective time: Say yes to AfD!)
Guess who wasn’t happy? The answer on FB from the official Pepsi account said this:
The poster on this picture is definitely not from Pepsi. We emphatically distance outselves from this political appropriation of the Pepsi brand and are looking into taking legal action against the creator for violation of our trademark rights.
3) fritz-kola: In response to Coca-Cola, this guy wanted to boycott them and, on December 6th, tweeted this (German link about it all here):
(After work a #kola)
Apparently, he didn’t know that fritz-kola is about the most politically minded beverage company in all of Germany, and surprise, they’re not fans of the AfD, they’re leftists. On December 7th, this happened on their twitter:
(280 characters aren’t much. but they’re enough for a big thank you! thanks to all the fritz-friends and all the great people out there who stand for lots of #diversity, #tolerance and togetherness! not everyone likes it, but it’s right! #wearemore) (the signs say stuff like “no kola for fascists”, “open eyes intead of blind hate”, “human rights instead of right-wing humans” etc.)
One might have known, considering they tweeted stuff like this in the past:
4) Vita Cola: Vita Cola is an East-German cola brand. On the 9th, Björn Höcke (oder Bernd, wie heißt der denn nu, verdammt!? ;) tweeted the following:
(Picture: There is an alternative to everything, not only in politics…
Text below: In Thuringia, we drink #VitaCola. This soda is by now market leader here, more popular than #CocaCola. Of course I wish lots of success to our local businesses.)
Well. This is what Vita Cola had to say (German link here):
The statements issued by Björn Höcke on social media were unknown to us beforehand and were neither authorised nor commissioned by us. Moreover, there is no connection at all and therefore no advertising contract between Mr Höcke and the brand Vita Cola. We would also like to note that we do not see these statements ad an advertisement for Vita Cola.
We generally have no influence on personal opinions voiced on Vita Cola online. As brand we are and behave neutrally and will not be instrumentalised for political strife between parties or in connection with other brands. We hereby distance ourselves from any political misappropriation as well. Instead, Vita Cola stands, among other things, for cosmopolitanism and tolerance.”
Yeah. Looks pretty grim for AfD members and fans who want to drink cola whose manufacturers like right-wing ideology. But at least it’s good for their health if they boycott them?
Let’s see who they’ll try next - maybe Afri Cola?
I CALLED IT!!!
5) afri cola: AfD politician Malte Kaufmann (he who tried fritz kola before) now drinks afri cola (German link) and writes this:
(I now drink another cola every evening and learn something about the political opinions of the manufacturers. Let’s see if #afri cola will make a statement for diversity, humanity, openness & tolerance. Cheers!)
And the response from afri cola when someone told them about it on FB:
(Hello and thanks for the message. afri cola stands for pop culture, i. e. freedom and tolerance. afri will not let itself be warped, used or misappropriated by political or other groups. greetings from afri)
——————
I’d posted this in my drafts last night. And then today when I went online, this had happened (German link):
6) Sinalco: Before anyone from the AfD could even try to post themselves with a fizzy drink from sinalco, they posted this:
(Full text: Sinalco is a German family company from Duisbug that stands for diversity, openness, tolerance and respect. We lives these values every day at our company. They show in how we treat each other as well as in the demographics of our employees. Sinalco exists in 50 countries around this world. We are proud of this internationality and our respect of other cultures also shows in the different languages in which our brand name Sinalco is presented on the bottles.)

I think that a couple other characters from the parodies we posted over the years would gladly patronize this blacksmith as well ;) Consider: Lyla from the College Humor sketch, the angry Dorkly comic lady, this poor heroine, the Chainmail Bikini Squad, Princess Adrienne… Oh yeah, there’s also this poor dude from Oglaf strip which we never knew how to address on BABD.
What I’m saying is, bad blacksmiths/armor merchants are kind of an recurring subject in bikini armor satire. And it’s nice for once to see one who’s fixing sexist armors instead of perpetuating them ;)
