You're Touching Me @mischievouscanadian - Tumblr Blog

@Staff

I’ve been seeing all these posts about everybody putting their two cents in on this whole NS|FW thing and I feel it’s time I put my own personal two cents in as well. So here we go. I’ll try and keep it concise.

I found this site when I was a Sophomore in highschool. I can’t even truly remember what brought me here. Maybe it was other friends talking about it, I’m not sure. I was 15 at the time when I joined the site. There was no “Safe Mode” per say when I joined so I had freedom to search and look at whatever I pleased. Over the next two years I was on the site, I made friends, found new fandoms to join, learned more about my sexuality, and just had a safe place to come while going through the hell that was highschool. And it was great. I was so happy those two years being able to come home and literally scroll for hours catching up on all the “clean” and “dirty” stuff that had been posted. I can’t thank tumblr enough for giving me such a safe and wonderful place to come and be myself.

But it was around the beginning of Senior year when “Safe Mode” was seriously rolled out. I remember getting on here one night to find some “dirty” stuff to look up just for the hell of it cause I had a stressful day but nothing came up. I searched around and found out the problem. I contacted tumblr @staff and they said that I couldn’t turn off “Safe Mode” until I turned 18. Well I was 18. I even provided a picture of my drivers license to prove it but they said that the date of birth I had provided on the site was wrong. Well my birthday is June 30th and I had this whole shebang happen on September 26. I WAS 18. Why would I put down a birthday that made me YOUNGER than I actually was?? Anyway. They told me I had to wait until the next year to turn “Safe Mode” off. That New Years was the best I’d had in a while because it was finally 2018 and I could update my app and TURN OFF SAFE MODE. I can’t tell you how many hours I spent just enjoying the site again having full freedom. I was SO ABSOLUTELY HAPPY to have “Safe Mode” OFF and be in contact with all my friends again.

And now this has happened. Me and everybody else have been forced into a permanent “Safe Mode”. I get why. It’s because of the whole Apple Store thing with the CP. But this isn’t how you handle it. You’ve literally just killed yourself tumblr. I no longer feel welcome here. I can’t find half the stuff I want to search and most of it is just fanfiction. Not NS|FW. Just a few minutes ago I searched something that used to always have TONS of posts. Well it only had three this time. THREE! It’s just..unfair. You aren’t targeting the problem. You’re just targeting everything. You’re dropping a nuke and hoping it with take care of the issue, not caring about the causalities. This site is meant for “Mature 17+”. Says so on the app store. Meaning it is meant for mature people. Who can view mature content. Cause quick story, I grew up with violence. And no. I’m no taking about abuse. I’m talking about how my older brother had me watching Predator and Scarface when I was about five years old. And how I’d seen V for Vendetta and War of the Worlds by age seven. I’ve seen every Fifty Shades that’s come out. And as a CHRISTMAS TRADITION my family piles up on the couch Christmas night and watches all the Alien movies cause nothing says Christmas like facehuggers im|preg|nating people and having aliens burst out of their chests. So trust me. I can handle seeing a di|ck. I can handle a nip|ple. I can handle s|e|x. Don’t take my freedom away. We’ve already got to deal with Net Neutrality and Article 13. Don’t put this new stress on everyone else too. I’m already afraid of the world we’ll be living in, in the next few years. I’ve even already started investing in flashdrives to save art, pictures, and videos offline like it’s the apocalypse because in reality it is. It looks like we’re nearing the end of free speech online and maybe even in the world. So please rethink this ban. Target the real threats. The nazis and CP accounts and po|rn bots. Not the accounts that are posting mature content in appreciation of it or the ones posting it to make a living or the ones posting it to be themselves. It isn’t right and you know it…

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

‘I love you’ means that I accept you for the person that you are, and that I do not wish to change you into someone else. It means that I will love you and stand by you even through the worst of times. It means loving you even when you’re in a bad mood, or too tired to do things I want to do. It means loving you when you’re down, not just when you’re fun to be with. ‘I love you’ means that I know your deepest secrets and do not judge you for them, asking in return that you do not judge me for mine. It means that I care enough to fight for what we have and that I love you enough not to let go. It means thinking of you, dreaming of you, wanting and needing you constantly, and hoping that you feel the same way for me.

Oh no, I’m crying.

This is one of my favorite things about being a parent: how you learn things that you might not have had to otherwise. That’s the thing about it–yes, I love my daughter and she is the focus of my parenting goals, but my experiences with her have helped me learn and grow in ways I never expected, and I’m grateful.
