I used to run a Tumblr “mood board” for my zine that had a little over 8 years of content, much of it dancing around the line between obscenity and legitimate expression of sexual identity. When Tumblr was sold recently, I didn’t expect the new Tumblr censorbots to do a good job of making the distinction, and I’m fucking angry that I need to worry about it. With Tumblr’s new policy of crawling through and removing adult content, I have a weary fear that queer content is going to suffer.
So once my backups are done and filed away for my future reference, I’m folding my Tumblr blogs and deleting my account. I’ll still be around on Instagram at @pinkmince, and as always I’d like to encourage everyone to stop by pinkmince.com to check out the zine that gave birth to this project, and expresses the end result of all of this gathering and inspiration and thinking.
