T-DAY REPORT, Part One

Today is doomsday: the day Tumblr unporned itself. The unfuckingthinkable.

Everyone has been wondering how this nonsense is going to work: Will they shut down accounts? Or just delete adult content? And how long is this bleaching going to take?

So I looked at my Tumblr this morning and found that some bot had been through at least 7 years worth of uploaded and load-shooting smut and flagged maybe 80 percent of it as "adult". Each post was individual marked thus:

I guess that's the good news? That Tumblr isn't deleting anything. It's just that nobody by the OP can see the OP's P'd smut. Which rather defeats the purpose of P'ing smut. Or peeing smut, for that matter.


But I digress. Anyway, I paged through my Tumblr from the most recent posts back to the beginning of 2011, and I clicked the "APPEAL" button on every single one of my posts that did not clearly violate the newly published "community standards"... just so we're clear, here's what Tumblr advises:

Got it? Prohibitions on genitals, actual sex, and the bizarre and self-delegitimizing "female-presenting nipples"—about which this wonderful and snarky meme was posted:




But that assholity aside and asnide: no cocks, no balls, no pussy; and no sex. Let's be generous to the neo-Puritans (my keyboard just typed "putains" by mistake) and say that "sex acts" includes masturbation—though possibly not baseball players and Michael Jackson grabbing they crotches for emphasis. So even given that as-restrictive-as-possible interpretation of Tumblr's new adult content restriction, I'd like to share some images whose adult-flagging I appealed and which were pretty quickly adjudicated and affirmed as adult and objectionable by a real live Tumblr human employee. Ready?


















All that sex. All those spurting cocks. Good thing Tumblr is around to keep society safe.

  1. BTW, there is no appeal to the ruling on appeals. The above content IS forbidden on Tumblr.
