some people’s blogs are being incorrectly flagged as explicit so if you would like to check your status, you can look it up on postlimit.com.
if you have been incorrectly marked as nsfw, you can appeal before tumblr permanently filters you as such and your blog is set back to default settings prior to december 18th here.
Please don’t fucking log off tumblr on the 17th as a protest. All that’s going to do is give tumblr more reason to shut this place down because of revenue loss.

Oh shit, I didn’t think about that,
CHANGE OF PLANS EVERYBODY, SPAM STAFF AND SUPPORT AND EVERY OTHER CONTACT WITH YOUR COMPLAINTS ON THIS DAY OF UNLAWFUL AND PLAIN STUPID THINGS BEING CALLED INAPPROPRIATE, WE CAN PROTEST AND STILL KEEP THIS SITE TOGETHER, I HAVE NO IDEA IF WHAT IM SAYING IS A GOOD THING AND HONESTLY FUCK. THIS SITE IS FUCKED. WE ARE ALL UNGODLYLYLYLY SCREWED.
I DIDN’T THINK OF THAT EITHER
CHANGE OF PLANS
Thank you for the insight!
NO NO NO
This is blatantly untrue
Companies do not experience one day of revenue loss and pull the plug, destroying years of work and firing dozens if not hundreds of employees.
Companies which experience loss in revenue and consumer interest make investments and changes in order to ragain their users/customers. That’s why organized protests and boycotts WORK. Tumblr will NOT go down after one bad day or week, but they might be willing to listen to its userbase if we put up an organized protest. (If you don’t believe me, think about how long sites like MySpace and Google+ hang around with fractions of their previous user base, often for years.)
Yahoo paid over one billion dollars for Tumblr, and the website will not go offline because of a one-day event, so in conclusion,
DO log off on December 17th to show Tumblr that you disapprove of its recent content ban and clumsy execution of censorship.

As much as I wanted to use ‘Teaching a robot to love’ it’s been done to death. Plus this is darker B)
If you thought I would pass up making a ‘Sei is dead’ joke you were sadly mistaken
Hey so @staff it’s really really shitty to flag as explicit a post about my gay uncle who died due to AIDS.
@staff this is unacceptable
Thank you. I didn’t even see a notification – I just came across it while I was scrolling through my blog to see if anything was flagged.
I’m honestly pretty upset about this. It’s also wild considering the history of the AIDS epidemic and how the US government censored PSAs about the epidemic to not mention gay men because it might be seen as endorsing “deviant” behavior. I’m not saying that’s why this was flagged, I’m just saying there’s relevant history here.
This is also an indication that random LGBTQ posts being blocked isn’t a fluke. This post doesn’t contain any word that could possibly be construed as sexual, like sex/sexual/sexuality. “Gay,” “orientation,” “HIV” or “AIDS” is probably flagged.
