This will be where I post my own drawings, as well as NSFW (and not-so-NSFW) reblogs. If you want to get to just the art, just click on "My Art" at the bottom of this sidebar. This blog is 18+, so proceed with caution!
Seeing as you drew fanart of early 2000's fitness model, Kitchie Laurico, I hate to inform you that she passed away recently to heart related issues.
I didn’t know that, and now that I do, that’s sad to hear. She was pretty adorable when she was modeling. I even posted about her here, if you haven’t seen the post already.
This is not a drill. Our new Community Guidelines are here.
We recently introduced Community Labels to give everyone more control over their dashboard experience. With this new feature, you can adjust your feed to your preferred comfort level by setting the types of content you want to see. It was our first step toward a more open Tumblr.
Today, we’re taking the next step: We now welcome a broader range of expression, creativity, and art on Tumblr, including content depicting the human form (yes, that includes the naked human form).
So, even if your creations contain nudity, mature subject matter, or sexual themes, you can now share them on Tumblr using the appropriate Community Label so that everyone remains in control of the types of content they see on their dash.
We have updated our Community Guidelines to reflect these changes; the rest of our content policies remain the same: We still don’t allow hate, spam, violent threats, or anything illegal, and visual depictions of sexually explicit acts remain off-limits on Tumblr (if you want to know more about that, our CEO Matt recently explained why it’s not feasible for us to safely and successfully support porn communities at this time). If you come across these types of content, please continue to report them to us.
Similarly, if you come across content on Tumblr that doesn’t appear to be appropriately labeled, please let us know. This is how we’ll work together to create safer spaces for everyone on Tumblr, whatever their interests and needs.
We hope this shift creates more room for artistic expression to flourish on Tumblr while empowering each of you to craft your own experience and safely explore and discover the things you love.
So, it appears that Tumblr has, for the most part, walked back it’s controversial decision from… *checks notes* NEARLY FOUR YEARS AGO?! Was I asleep during that time?!
Anyways, so now nudity is fine, but 1) You have to use the new (and appropriate) Community Labels[tm] they introduced sometime ago, and 2) You can’t show them having sex. There was a reasonable rationale given for this, but even with that, Tumblr’s getting horny again!
But! Some might be, shall we say, cautiously optimistic about this, and that’s understandable. The original decision NEARLY FOUR YEARS AGO to ban nearly anything the least bit erotic was seen by many as Tumblr shooting off their foot, and then blowing off four toes on the other foot. Those that didn’t smutpost to begin with were unaffected, but those artists and others that posted NSFW content on a near regular basis were pissed to say the least, and BOY did they let their opinion known. But now, Tumblr has pretty much walked back that unpopular decision (with a couple of exceptions), so whether or not we’ll be seeing a new era of NSFW here remains to be seen.
