When I explain if an animated movie gets turned into an animated TV series, you can not expect it to look the same because budgeting is MUCH lower and sometimes casting have different contracts so some roles might have to be recast. I get looked at like public enemy #1

Like I love the idea of Kpop demon hunters touring and every episode or season being them on tour ....but you cannot expect that HIGH LEVEL of animation budget that was put into their songs, choreography, backgrounds, etc.. it would end up kind of looking rushed and not as fulfilling since you went from an insanely detailed animated movie that spent YEARS being produced and made to about a 30 min episode for a TV series that depends on the company and they need episodes like ...next week if that makes sense.

And this is not to shit on animated TV shows. Literally, some of them are beautifully done and have great pacing and cast! (Owl house, Amphibia, Tangled the series, Avatar, etc..) but also they worked with their small budget and ...we live in a time where animated shows are getting canceled for tax write-offs and immediately swiped from their streaming services (don't get me started on streaming services being ASS) but I think sequels would be better personally.

This is a personal opinion!!! Don't witch hunt me. I'm a graduate student studying visual development and currently making a whole pitch book. I'm tired and do not have time to argue, LMAO

The more I see and the more I hear, both things I've seen for myself, and heard others talk about. It's really all just stacking up. I try my hardest not to hold hate and anger, but if my Appalachian ass didn't already hate the government before this clusterfuck happened (and believe me, I hate it), I sure as hell will hate 'em now. As an Appalachian myself, I stand in solidarity with any and all Appalachians right now. If anyone tries to come at me with any slander towards this area right now, I swear I'm gonna catch my first assault charge

Please just unban my blog, the most promiscuous thing on here is COWBOY GATSBY, and that's NOT VERY PROMISCUOUS

[ask-the-great-gatsby]

So, I believe I'm un-shadowbanned???? Hopefully??? I've changed my icon and header back to normal--hopefully its visible. A follower notified me that they could actually SEE MY BLOG. Hopefully my BLOG is visible. I filed three appeals, my third this morning and I was...kinda rude ngl. I was just getting fed up lmao. SO. Hopefully I'm BACK IN BUSINESS. Dang.

[ask-the-great-gatsby]

Well, I guess this blog has been shadow banned for now? I'm gonna see of I cant get this worked out because, wow holy shit, this is ridiculous.

I haven't watched Queen Of The Damned, and I don't really want to bc I'm biased, but I've seen enough scenes to know that they really and I do mean really missed their chance to make Lestat more of a Glam Rock band and it shows. Like. Dress him like Nikki Sixx you cowards

My friend is obsessed with Jay/Nick and I don't see it and I'm afraid they'll be mad at me if they find out.

If a friendship literally ends over someone not shipping smth, that's like. Super unstable. If you dont ship Nick/Jay or you dont see them being together, that's completely okay! Assuming you're not bashing the ship, and assuming you're not dissing your buddy for shipping them, I dont see why there should be a problem! Like if you tell them politely, like "I dont actually ship nick and jay, but If you do that's completely fine! I dont mind what you ship and what you dont!" And they react negatively? That's not good, man, like. Someone shouldnt get mad at you for not shipping something. I know a couple of people have come on this blog and told me they dont ship natsby, and it's really not a big deal to me. I ship them yes, I post a lot of natsby content yes, but if you dont ship natsby, I'm not gonna go off or smth, like it's your choice, no one is telling you to ship them? And if your friend actually gets mad st you for having your own opinion, and you've respectfully told them your opinion, that's just kinda not good on their part

Sorry for the whole essay I just have strong feelings regarding stuff like this, like if I had a friend that got pissed at me for not shipping smth they do, that seems really...not okay to me

With tumblr being one of the only social media platforms I bother with, seeing all of my favorite artists (that tag their posts, nsfw or not, that have a +18 disclaimer in their bio, that make their living doing commissions and advertising their art from this very site) really upsets me. I dont have a snapchat, twitter, instagram, anything else. Just tumblr. And Seeing some of my favorite fandom bloggers delete their blogs, even seeing some of my mutuals delete their blogs--not because they post nsfw content, but because most of their sfw posts are getting flagged and they are just done with the bullshit? Yea, it sucks balls.

I'm not leaving tumblr, for the, like, 4 of you I talk to on this app, and I'm not one to often voice my opinion, but I seriously think this is pretty fucked. People who use this app to make a living are getting fucked over. Dare i say it. Even Sex workers are getting fucked over. Porn bots? I've gotten followed by four today. I've had to blog and report them for spam. Nothing is changing with the main problem--the porn bots. Have I ever came in contact with a sex worker on here? Yes. One. I've seen their blog, and all of their content was tagged nsfw, and so I just blocked them and went on my merry way. They even had a bio that said "please block me if you're under 18, this is an nsfw blog, don't interact". Like. I'm not saying they're all like that. I wouldn't know, I've only encountered one. But like. Most nsfw stuff never shows up on my dash, and if it does, I block and go on. Reason I say MOST nsfw stuff, is because the only nsfw stuff that DOES pop on my blogs is

FUCKING PORN BOTS.

And I'm so. Fucking tired. Of the porn bots. And nothing is happening about the porn bots.

Used to, the porn bots would just follow me and send me the typicall repulsive fucking messages like "h0t single big tiddy babes in y0ur area! See if she is 0nline n0w" with a link that would probably give me 12 viruses, so I would block, delete, mark as spam, report, done.

Ever since this ban on nsfw content has come up, not only has the amount of porn blogs following me DOUBLED, But the stupid fucking posts are showing up on my feed.

I'm just sitting there scrolling through my fandom content on my feed and between all of the posts I'm liking and reposting, mainly consisting of memes, and the assorted amount of fandom I'm in, boom, some basically naked girl in a G string giving a guy a bj in a swimming pool and it's labeled "h0t babes in your area" or some stupid fucking shit, and oh, what's that? It's tagged "sfw"! I'll be damned, the bots are learning, and thus they're becoming FOUR TIMES AS FUCKING ANNOYING.

I know people on this app that are +18 and the only problem they have with nsfw on this app is with the porn bots. They have no issue with nsfw creators/sex workers--if they find an nsfw creator or a sex worker blog, they just block them, and block some extra tags. Problem solved.

I have 54 blogs blocked. 50 of those are porn bots. Like 6 of those porn bots are posting what I think is child porn. I have reported all of the porn bots for spam multiple times, and only a few have been taken down? 3 of those blogs I've blocked are exclusionist, and the last one I have blocked is that sex worker--I blocked them just so I didn't have to see their content. I didn't report them, their content was tagged and there were disclaimers like, everywhere all over their blog.

But I've seen about 20 people that I follow for art delete their blogs/content because of this ban, when this was their biggest platform. People that have been here WAY fucking longer than me. People making their living selling their art here. People with like 5000 followers. Some of these people, yes, draw nsfw content. But they have made separate blogs for their nsfw art, with disclaimers and all kinds of tags.

But not a thing has been done about the porn bots. In fact, they got worse. Not sure if this has happened to anyone else--like, porn bots posts showing up on your feed/following you twice as much I mean.

But. Idk. This is just my highly disorganised input. This post is really really rambly, like, I just kinda spilled my thoughts but. I'm pretty mad about all this and I know people on here are much angrier than me, much more affected than me, and much more willing to speak out than me. But here's my input, though it's a little all over the place.
