Thanks for bringing Tumblr's censorship to my attention. I didn't even realize the post had been taken down until I saw your post, and I certainly didn't delete it myself.

Thanks. It can't be a matter of it being a private Facebook picture. These creeps are proud of what they're doing and posted it publicly - in fact I was able to share it to my own profile.

Tumblr, how did all these posts go missing?

UPDATE, here's the answer, from Chris Mohney:

Chris Mohney, editor in chief of Tumblr, emails re: the Israeli couch potatoes:

Hey — saw the fracas over the deletion of the couch photo and reblogs. I talked to Support and it appears to have been a mistake of the entire reblog tree getting accidentally deleted when a reblog further down the chain was removed after another user’s hate speech complaint (someone had reblogged the photo and appended violent anti-semitic threats etc). Tech is looking into a way to restore the reblog tree, so if that works out you’ll hear from them and/or Support. Apologies to all affected. Feel free to post this email in whole or in part if you like. chris m

Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for all of the love you consistently show my blog. I feel like I see your name in the notes to at least 90% of my posts, and I almost always see a surge in traffic after you reblog anything, so I wanted to make sure you know I appreciate it! Keep up the great blogging!

Thanks for the kind words, Scott.  I appreciate the great stuff you post.
