………….we knew this shit was an issue that staff has been ignoring for ages but it finally came to bite them in the ass
hey general psa that in the notes theres a bunch of really stupid misinformation bullshit (as i should have expected) abt how this is a fandom thing, about fanart/fanfiction, and i would just like to clarify for as many people as i can that this is not a fandom thing at all, it is an issue targeting IRL minors.
minors have been running “sex work” blogs, selling private snapchats, et cetera, using tumblr as their platforms. there are also adult rings of CP (photographs and videos of IRL minors) distributors on tumblr that have managed to slip by filters. this is the issue being looked into by law enforcement, this is the issue being pursued by tumblr, and it is the reason the purge is being done so hastily and messily (protection of minors being sexually trafficked is generally more important than avoiding Jane Doe #193′s doctor who blog being nuked by accident). reporting fandom blogs to tumblr for written content and fanart is only going to confuse the matter further and make it more likely that minors will be put at greater risk (if fake reports come in massive quantities and drown out the real reports or make alarm fatigue likely).
please don’t spread misinformation y’all!
to paraphrase what has been also said in the notes: people need to stop reporting fan blogs because this massive number of false alarms are drowning out the actual reports about real life minors being exploited.
And apparently even if you get your blog restored if it’s mistakenly deleted, that’s still not the end of it, because you can then get randomly deleted again.
For all the flack I caught about “defending child porn” this is the exact fucking reason why I keep telling people that no type of fandom related bullshit is child porn.
When you report fictional porn of fictional characters it ties up the system for protecting actual fucking children you knobheads
this just in: romaine lettuce carries the e. coli virus and you will Fuckign DIE!
The health alert spans across the following states as a precaution: California, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Maryland, Illinois, New York, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut and New Jersey.
Throw it out.
is this a new alert or the one from like a year and a half ago?
NEW ONE! Just don’t eat salads or sandwiches with romane/leafy greens until we get an all-clear.
This warning is extended to Quebec and Ontario, too, for us Canucks.
i think high heeled winter boots are the cruelest trick played on women. here’s some footwear specifically designed for cold weather and rough, slick terrain, but we went ahead and made it less functional so you can look more fuckable. don’t slip baby! that’s it that’s womenswear distilled down to its purest core
my thoughts exactly but also about high-heeled hiking boots
high heeled WHAT NOWS
But have you seen the Teva hiking/working stiletto?
If I'm your savior, then you're mine.
