For those unaware because staff isn’t saying it

Tumblr was deemed too full of inappropriate content to be allowed to be downloaded from the app store.

It has this “inappropriate” problem because of rampant porn ad bot accounts. The old solutions were bots to detect image sets with nsfw content, the automatically enabled safe mode, tag filtering for mobile, and wide takedowns of nsfw bots based on words used (that’s why their messages are full of numbers and symbols, to evade this)

Tumblr released their own bot supposedly capable of wiping the ad bots, but it’s taking down many popular blogs, possibly due to sheer amounts of posting or sheer amounts of ad bots in their notes. This bot was likely rushed to be put out.

You are more likely to be accidentally flagged if you post external links, as well. If your acct is taken down you CAN get it back, but it’s a pain. E-mail tumblr support for help with this. It takes down side blogs with the main ones.

I’ll be halting posts for about a week or until this problem is fixed.

Having Depression for years is so wild because you just kinda become?? Desensitized to your own suffering?? Like yeah I want to kill myself every day. Oh, oh yeah normal people don’t have that????? Oh shit I forgot

It’s always fun to top this with chronic pain. You get desensitized to so many injuries. I smashed my hand between some metal equipment and my co-worker was all worried and I just looked at it and said, “Welp. It’s not bleeding and I can still move it. It will be fine.”

Both of these are super fun with doctors.

New therapist? “Have you ever had thoughts of killing yourself?” “???? What kind of q is that I mean yknow duh but wouldn’t do it”

ER Doc? “And how’s your pain?” “-with a straight face, conversationally- Oh, it’s pretty much unbearable.” “You seem fine though?” “Ya this is my daily but I recognize I need medical intervention at this juncture get on my level.”
