17th Tumblr will no longer allow adult content (or non-sexual nudity)
Adult content apparently includes “nudity” (which I assume means even non-sexual stuff).
I’m not sure what I’m going to do about either Quest To Die or my erotic art blog.
What would be a good website to post on?
Already stuff on my blogs have been “flagged” for removal by the automated system (even though the 17th is several weeks away). Even non-sexual pics are being flagged for removal (e.g pic’s of Karla were flagged just because she’s not wearing a shirt).
Lately I’ve done quite a bit of art, especially various monsters, for my surreal horror setting “Quest To Die.” I thought I’d share sample of some of the monsters. (I should warn though that QTD can be morbid and in the future will delve into heavy themes. It was inspired by things such as HR Giger’s art, the manga “Berserk” and the webomic “Feast For A King”)
I haven’t done much with my other characters lately because, aside from monsters being easier to draw, not many people have shown much interest in my OCs.
Plus it’s been hard for me to feel motivation to draw happy things lately.
So basically you can't search for the stuff anymore is what your saying So what made them remove the safe search option
Yep, the option in search, and mobile’s filter settings, are gone while desktop’s filter setting’s have no effect anymore. I originally thought this was a bug.
But people on here are saying this was another of tumblr’s responses (aside from the blog purge) to being taken down from the app store due to pornbots and CP. It sounds believable and reminded me of what youtube did in response to elsagate and videos of human death and child abuse that resulted in the adpocalypse. But it might also be an uncanny coincidence (although that seems unlikely). I can’t find anything confirming if this is just short-term or permanent.
(Unrelated but you’re the first person to send me an ask on one of my blogs)
edit: So starting December 17th, tumblr is going to remove ALL adult content, including nudity (which I assume means even non-sexual nudity).
Apparently tumblr disabled the ability to turn off safe search (and various nsfw, and even sfw, blogs have been wrongly removed without notice by automated systems)...
Something I want to point out is that there are people on this website who make money off adult-themed art and similar media. So it’s not just “people losing access to their porn,” but people losing access to income.
I’m totally all for wanting to get rid of child abuse and pornbots (I learned that supposedly that’s why this happened and it wasn’t just bugs) but I don’t understand how forcing everyone over 18 to use safe search, or having random blogs taken down without warning, would achieve this goal.
It just punishes people who did nothing wrong. Like how youtube made it so videos with swearing,violence and etc. were demonetized in response to the Elsagate and other garbage. It ended up hurting people who relied on ad revenue for income.
That said, you CAN still access nsfw blogs through links or reblogs. You just can’t search for nsfw blog or tags. While this doesn’t nullify the harm caused by the above, it’s still something nsfw artists and their fans should utilize for now.
This but instead of me being toxic person in “someones life,” I’m sorry for being a toxic person to every single living being I’ve ever interacted with.
I try so hard to keep my emotions under control so as to not bother anyone, but they only get worst and build up with loneliness like a dam. Then when I finally get the confidence to interact with people I have to restrain myself so hard to not be a negative prick… and then the moment I think I’ve finally found people I can talk to about personal issues, the dam breaks apart and I just end up a horrid mess that no one want’s to be around. I vent about stuff no one wants to hear and/freak out over every little stupid thing like it’s the end of the world!
(Also sorry, I initially reblogged that on the wrong blog a minute ago)
I decided to try drawing some of my beast shifter's beast-forms again, both stylized and unstylized.
I didn't bother coloring the unstylized version, but might in the future (also to clarify, the stylized version's retain their human form's eyes whereas the unstylized do not retain human eyes)
I hate how I always find it weird when I hear about other bisexuals hating that people ask them if they want them be part of threesomes/poly relationships since I’m bi and would love if someone offered something like that...
but then I remember it’s probably because I’m so ugly that no one would want me in the first place.
Apparently several people enjoyed the fnaf and spongebob joke drawings I made, so I decided to do another.
While I initially didn’t intend to do much fanart on this blog, if your interested I can make these a regular thing.
Since the last pic was basically Foxy doing inappropriate things to a cute Toy Bonnie, I thought for this I do the opposite. This time I have Bonnie and Mangle, despite being grotesque looking, having a more wholesome and consensual interaction.
I made a new separate blog for my “Quest to Die” stuff and deleted the posts I made on here earlier, then moved them to the new blog.
https://questtodie.tumblr.com/
I might also post other stuff there, like virtuous monsters and etc.
I gave it some thought and the theme I had established here really doesn’t go well with those projects. So I made a separate blog for them.
However, I’ll still post some stuff regarding Karla and her family here cause they’re cute and she’s a monster girl who does lovey-dovey stuff with her hubbies.
I might also use that blog to vent about depression and illness, so that way this blog stays more positive.
They were once ordinary humans but died in a mysterious disaster to be reborn as monsters called, unsurprisingly, The Reborn, in a nightmare world ruled by alien gods known as “The Ancient Ones.”
Each type of monster is of a particular caste and is both biologically programmed and culturally conditioned to serve a specific purpose that furthers the goals of the Ancient Ones.
However instead of accepting their fates and be overcome by their intended purposes, the seven banded together. Bonded by their friendship and love for one another, they work together to overcome both their monster instincts and the pressures imposed upon them by the world they live in.
-------
Patience - In life she was a considerate woman who went out of her way to understand others and see things from the point of view of others. She was reborn as a Warrior Caste, which exists for combat and to destroy everything that inconveniences them or the nightmare world, no matter what justification. She is now plagued by near constant anger, bloodlust and impulsive thoughts of violence and brutality while the other warriors pressure her to hate anyone who is an inconvenience. She also has a huge crush on Chastity.
Chastity- In life he was a very respectful boy who valued the lives of others even when they didn’t benefit him. He was also hopeless romantic bisexual who adored love stories and dreamed of being married one day. He was reborn as a Raptorial caste, a predatory being who exists to find ways to manipulate and exploit for immediate self gratification, as well as to warp innocence into perversion. He is now plagued by impulsive perverted and sexual thoughts about everything he sees and think about, while other raptorial castes pressure him to view un-beneficial things with disgust. He pretends to not to notice Patience’s feelings towards him, not because he dislikes her, but he fears that his instincts will make him see her as something to take advantage of and he loves her (and his friends) too much to let that happen.
Charity- In life she was a kindly grandmother who constantly gave to others even at own well being. She was reborn as a vampire caste, a parasitic beast that exists to take things from enemies, mostly their blood (which they do not even consume) but also any potentially valuable items. Her thoughts are constantly plagued of wanting more blood and other vampires encourage her to want objects that do not belong to her no matter how meaningless they are.
Humility- In life she was a silly girl into anime. She was very modest and enjoyed nothing more than making others feel better about themselves and see their worth with compliments and words of encouragement. She was reborn as Harasser caste, a harpy like creature that exists to decrease enemy moral through not only physical strikes but also insults and making them see their (oftentimes nonexistent) weaknesses. Her thoughts are plagued by narcissism and a tendency to see traits in others as flaws while the other harassers encourage her to value brutally honest (but not necessarily truth, for to be honest is not the same as to speak what is true). The cat ears are actually a headband, one of the few earthly possessions from her prior life that she still owns.
Temperance - In life she was a young woman who enjoyed savoring the beauty in everything, especially nature and cooking. She was reborn as a Devourer Caste, a fearsome beast that exists to consume enemies and their resources. Devourers are always in a constant state of many pains (not just hunger) that they desire to drown out through mindless consumption of not only food and beverages, but also vulgar entertainment, narcotics, sexual pleasure and etc. Likewise, her others devourers pressure her to only value pleasure over everything else, especially over the well-being of others.
Kindness - In life he was an optimistic boy who tried to help others see the good in life and avoid being needlessly spiteful towards others. He was reborn as a morale caste, an incredibly weak, helpless and anxiety prone worm like creature. Morale castes are designed to make ally monsters feel better about themselves by having something pathetic to compare themselves to and mock, as well as something helpless to take their frustrations and immoral desires out on when there’s no enemies around. Kindness is plagued by impulses to be bitter, cynical and sardonic to others while also suffering from great self-loathing and depression. Unlike most monsters, these feelings of his are not the result of biological programming or cultural pressure, but a natural reaction to his current state and the way other monsters (aside from his friends) treat him. Although the other morale castes think he’s foolish for trusting and being dependent upon his friends, especially since they’re non-morale castes. He and Temperance have crushes on each other. But Kindness thinks he’s too pathetic to loathsome to interest any woman, while Temperance thinks she’s too fat and gross to interest any boy. They also share a fondness for socks, their last earthly possessions.
Diligence - In life they were a thoughtful and wise person who had strong interests in science and history. They were reborn as an Information Caste, a biological computer and propaganda machine designed to take in stimulus and information for other monsters to utilize. But while Information castes take in information, they’re not supposed to actually do anything with it themselves, except to sometimes warp it to seem like it supports the ancient ones overall ambitions. Diligence often suffers from taking in things without using judgment or reasoning skills, while the other information castes encourage diligence to deny any information that does not suite the beliefs of the gods.
I thought about posting pics of my own cuts/scars but decided against it. Granted my cuts aren’t anywhere near as deep as those from the blog I’m following (not that anyone but me would even want to see them) but I wish they could be as deep. But aside from me being a pathetic weak little bitch, there’s no way I could hide cuts that large from my parents.
Couple nights ago, after going almost 2 days without sleep, took like 0.5 g of Diphenhydramine, didn't even go to sleep that night and just felt shaky and nauseous until finally falling asleep in the afternoon the day afterwards. Yesterday and Tonight I'm back to sleeping during the day and being up at night. I guess it's better than not sleeping at all.
It's odd how given all the times I've way too many sleeping pills, or tried to intentionally overdosed (including my mother's pills and one time, when I was in high school, an entire package of rat poison) I've never had to go to the hospital.
