In response to the NSFW ban being enacted by Tumblr Staff, on December 17th 2018 I propose that we all log off of our Tumblr accounts for 24 hours. 

The lack of respect and communication between staff and users is stark. Users have been begging staff to delete the porn bot outbreak, which has plagued the website for well over a year. The porn bots oftentimes send people asks and messages, trying to get them to go to a website full of viruses. They also spam advertisements on others posts.  

Users have also begged that Tumblr ban neo-nazis, child porn, and pedophiles, all which run rampant on the site. The site/app got so bad that it was taken off the app store.

However, instead of answering the users, Tumblr has instead taken the liberty to ban all NSFW content, regardless of age. But users have already run into issues of their SFW content being marked as sensitive and being flagged as NSFW, not allowing them to share their work.

Not only does this discriminate again content creators, but it also discriminates against sex workers. Disgustingly, the ban will be enacted on December 17 which is also International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers.

This ban is disgusting, and while I (and plenty of others) welcome porn bots and child porn being banned, the Tumblr filtration system is broken. It tags artistic work’s nipples as NSFW (when it is art), it tags SFW art as NSFW (when it is not), and does not stop the porn bots, neo-nazis and dozens of other issues.

This ban is discriminatory. This ban is ineffective. This ban is unacceptable. 

To protest, log off of your Tumblr account for the entirety of November 17th. Log off at 12 am EST or 9PM PST and stay off for 24 hours. Don’t post. Don’t log on. Don’t even visit the website. Don’t give them that sweet ad revenue. 

Tumblr’s stock has already taken a hard hit. Let’s make it tank. Maybe then they will listen to the users. 

Reblog to signal boost! We must force change.

Got a reminder set.

For NSFW content creators, artists and writers, Pornhub might be another platform that you want to consider.

Why only NSFW? Wouldn’t it be fun to flood the platform with all kinds of content? I got so used to the mix of vintage, art, fashion an politics with some hardcore porn here and there showing up in between.

So, who’s muted? Anyone not muted? Is Tumblr just deciding to try to piss off their entire user base now?

To find out if you’re muted, go to your blog’s URL- specifically to the [yourusernamewhatever].tumblr.com- and see if your recent posts or reblogs are there. Like, for my blog, no matter what I reblog, the posts don’t show up there, it just shows one from yesterday as my most recent.

Looks like I’m muted.

me too. So @stuff fuck you and your mothers.

Indonesian City to Begin Fining People For ‘Immoral Same-Sex Acts’ and ‘Transvestite Activities’

projectqueer:

Pariaman, a city in the Indonesian province of West Sumatra, passed a new law on Tuesday penalizing “immoral same-sex acts” and “transvestite activities” with a $70 fine. That total may not seem like much, but taking differences in per capita income into account, it’s more like $1,300 in the United States.

While homosexuality is not illegal in the majority Muslim nation, Pariaman City Council Chair Fitra Nora told The Guardian that LGBTQ people “will be subject to sanctions and fines if they disturb the public order.”

Deputy Mayor Mardison Mahyudin said the proposal resulted from “anxiety” toward LGBTQ people in the town of more than 80,000 people.

So sad.
