Sorry, last one. I had to.
I haven’t used this blog in over two years, aside from the ocassional like, but I came back to finally delete it because of the changes of policy, after saving my memories.
I refuse to have an account here after the announcement. I don’t care about porn posts; that is not what I came here for. But Tumblr has been censoring all types of posts that the bots misread as being nsfw, such as pictures of animals and landscapes, and even screenshots of text. And what also shocked me was the infamous comments about “female presenting nipples”. Excuse me but what the fuck. Not only is that sexist but also transphobic.
Since when do we see female nudity as dirty and shameful? Why is that not the case with men? Even art blogs are being flagged left and right. I’ve seen classical paintings get flagged. Embarrassing. A painting with a nude woman in it, such as The Birth of Venus is unacceptable now, but dead bodies and brutality are perfectly fine. It’s madness.
This is not Tumblr. This is not the site that used to be home to me. It’s now a place of censorship, hypocrisy, misogyny and all around ridiculousness.
These people are the same who pride themselves in being so open and feminist. Sigh.
Last post I’m going to make in this blog probably ever.
If you would like to know the name of my new blog, send me a message (not anonymous, of course).
I’m so sad about having to give up my blog, but it really had to be done. It was a pleasure to meet those of you with whom I got to talk.

I am starting to be okay with being forsaken and replaced.
This realization feels like a heavy weight being lifted from my shoulders.
I’m not going to pretend it didn’t hurt in the beginning, because it sure does when someone you love decides to do that, but I learned long ago that that is how human interactions work. People approach other people, take what they need and leave. This is just another confirmation.
It is not nice but it is what it is, and I am finally accepting. I have to accept to move forward, and that is what I’m doing. Let the grief go.
