Today we announced some big updates to our Community Guidelines and what kind of content is permitted on Tumblr. Adult content will no longer be allowed here. While we do not judge anyone for their desire to post, engage with, or view this stuff, it is time for us to change our relationship with it.
We expect you may have some questions on how this will affect you, and we’re here to make sure those questions get answered.
When does the new policy take effect?
Our new Community Guidelines will go into effect on December 17, 2018.
Newly uploaded content flagged as adult will no longer be allowed on Tumblr. We’ll also begin flagging and removing existing adult content with the ultimate goal of removing as much of it as we can.
What is considered adult content?
Adult content primarily includes photos, videos, or GIFs that show real-life human genitals or female-presenting nipples, and any content—including photos, videos, GIFs and illustrations—that depicts sex acts.
What is still permitted?
Examples of exceptions that are still permitted are exposed female-presenting nipples in connection with breastfeeding, birth or after-birth moments, and health-related situations, such as post-mastectomy or gender confirmation surgery. Written content such as erotica, nudity related to political or newsworthy speech, and nudity found in art, such as sculptures and illustrations, are also stuff that can be freely posted on Tumblr.
Oh, so no sex workers, but somehow weird furry illustrations will stay.

Happy birthday, me. You’re another year older… yay

This mess I’m hammering out today.
Interesting illustrations from the Jodorowsky’s Dune screenplay which sold recently on eBay.

Brazilian graphic designer and illustrator Butcher Billy got the idea of turning famous love hits into book covers of horror master Stephen King.
Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart,” The Smiths, “Head Over Heels” by Tears For Fears and many others were portrayed in a very unusual way.
“This series imagines an alternate universe where some of the most desperate and tragic romantic songs in the ‘70s and’ 80s are actually books written by Stephen King. The concept is to look at the dark side of love by the vision of pop culture, bringing aspects of its classic stories to play the true meaning of the songs - this can be completely subverted or stressed strangeness, while paying tribute to the vintage design of the original covers,” Butcher writes on his Behance.
Reblog with some of your favorite horror/paranormal book covers. I need some inspiration for the Nocturn revamp!

How Tumblr feels these days.
I read posts by other writers who are so thrilled about how people will react to a certain scene or a certain interaction, and I think, “is something wrong with me?” It never occurs to me what the reader might think until it’s too late. I get so lost in the minutia of my writing, that I often forget why I’m writing things and have to delete it. I guess in that way, I’m both absent-minded and self-involved. What an awful combination of things. I guess I do want people to like my books, but I get so lost in the process that I forget to check if it’s fit for consumption.

Oh no. This one hurts me.
