it worries me so much that there’s been this (mostly unintentional) culture built up around coming out, to where young lgbt kids are putting themselves in danger at school and at home because they don’t want to “live a lie.” i just want to say, i came out when i was 15 and it created a lot of difficulties in my life that i could have avoided by waiting until i was older. it isolated me socially, it exposed me to homophobia from my parents, my family, my teachers, and my classmates at the most important developmental stages of my own confidence and sense of self… closeted people are not living a lie. closeted people are surviving. don’t let anyone pressure you to come out before you’re ready. don’t put yourself at risk when you don’t have to.

The decade-old LiveJournal adult content ban gives us a hint of what’s next for Tumblr
“Want a glimpse of Tumblr’s future? The decade-old LiveJournal adult content ban gives us a hint of what’s to come”
Sounds about right to me. Hey @staff, how it going to look on your resumes? “So you helped turn Tumblr into the next LiveJournal? Yeah, can you help us do that for our company too?” 😂
With the end of adult content on Tumblr, people whose identity, sexuality, or interests fall outside the mainstream have lost one more online space to find ourselves.
Even the mainstream clickbait pioneers at BuzzFeed are sypathetic to Tumblr’s adult community and… not so sympathetic to @staff.
It’s not the first time Reddit’s data hoarding community has saved content that is about to be purged from the internet, but this archiv
“On Wednesday afternoon, the redditor u/itdnhr posted a list of 67,000 NSFW Tumblrs to the r/Datasets subreddit. Shortly thereafter, they posted an updated list of 43,000 NSFW Tumblrs (excluding those that were no longer working) to the r/Datahoarders subreddit, a group of self-described digital librarians dedicated to preserving data of all types.”
Yeah, there’s a subreddit for almost anything including some of the shittiest people on earth BUT also some of the coolest.
out of respect for my mutuals who will be leaving tumblr soon, I will exclusively beat my meat to your explicit content as a salute to your years of service
what even are any of these “alternative sites to tumblr in case it dies” everyone’s suggesting like i’ve never heard of any of these in my life do you really expect me to create an account on babar the elephant dot com or some shit and follow you there
@staff wench, ha! for what reason is thou angry? because mine own pussy poppeth sev’rely and thine own does not?

Real talk, though, because it needs to be said: as much as we all joke that porn was the only good thing this place had left, the reality is that it being the only place where one could regularly engage with and promote sexual content being gone is really not understanding at all what makes this place special. I mean we all joke about “horny on main” and all that, but the reality is that for a lot of the LGTBQ+ community, particularly younger members still discovering themselves and members in extremely homophobic environments where most media sites were banned (but Tumblr wasn’t even considered important enough to be), this was a bastion of information and self-expression. For a lot of artists too, this was a great place to come and post NSFW work and get traction that became Patreon pages that became honest jobs. The problem with “family friendly” social media is that more often than not, the ones hit the most by the whole family friendly nonsense are marginalized groups that have no vehicles to express themselves. Stuff like YouTube consistently bans or flags simple content featuring something as innocuous as two men kissing as “adult” content and makes it hard for LGBTQ+ content creators to compete with their non-queer peers for a lot of those reasons. The ultimate problem isn’t even that banning of NSFW content, it’s the general mess surrounding it and unintended consequences to these groups. For MONTHS Tumblr has had a huge problem with porn spam bots and outright child pornography, and for MONTHS the majority of the userbase has been in general consensus that both of these things needed to stop. Tumblr did NOTHING. Absolutely nothing. When Apple finally removed their app from the store, SPECIFICALLY because of the child pornography, Tumblr decided to do what any rich corporation owning a social media site with zero understanding of what makes it popular would do, and decided that the best course of action was to eat itself like an Ouroboros. Rather than admit that they have done an absolutely shit job at keeping pedophiles off this website and rather than hiring the necessary staff to carefully moderate content, they decided to loose a poorly programmed bot that literally deleted perfectly SFW blogs with thousands of followers, and rather than properly handling moderation, they decided that it was best to simply go the lazy route and block anything even remotely NSFW. They run this site in the worst way possible, and I don’t understand how @support or @staff or their completely oblivious “CEO” plans to keep this sinking ship alive.
the reality is that for a lot of the LGTBQ+ community, particularly younger members still discovering themselves and members in extremely homophobic environments where most media sites were banned (but Tumblr wasn’t even considered important enough to be), this was a bastion of information and self-expression.
I’ve generally do not repost from other blogs as I liked to create my own content. However, I am moved by comments about marginalized communities and feel it is worth sharing. I hope you find someplace to learn, discover and thrive.
He might play innocent but your brother’s best friend knows you look and knows you’ll take his load. He didn’t want to play video games with you when your bro was out. He’s playing you to play your hole. And you’re good with it.
