The “Log Off” protest is in response to the recent NSFW ban announced by Tumblr. The ban flags all content the filtering system detects as NSFW, reducing visibility to the community. The system has proven time and time again that is inefficient, oftentimes flagging SFW material as NSFW.
This SFW material includes art, memes and so on. This ban directly hurts the community and will not solve the actual problems at hand due to the poor flagging system. Because of this, the entire community will suffer.
So to respond, I propose that every user on Tumblr logs off of Tumblr for 24 hours on December 17th at 12 am EST.
Times are listed above depending on timezone!
This post responds to some very common questions about the protest. So make sure to read it over!

social anxiety is realizing you’re lonely, not wanting to be lonely, being handed and opportunity not to be lonely, and still choosing to be lonely because despite every previous indicator that you would be welcome to join in on other people’s fun and stop being lonely, you’re still afraid that no one wants you around
Yesterday, I went to help my neighbor with her barn duties. She has owned her horse Winni for almost the entire 14 years of his life and he is seriously just the sweetest horse I’ve ever met. He’s helped me a lot with overcoming my fear of horse riding after my accident two years ago. Because of him, I’ve started riding again and I really love every second I can spend with my neighbor and her horse at the barn.
Winni is the horse in the middle of the last picture. The little girl is my neighbors two year old daughter. She had a blast sitting in the hay rack and cuddling with Winnis stable mate Endor.
Can we appreciate how badass Sarek is in this picture?
Have a rest

A version for tumblr that can be read without opening a new tab, since plenty of people would scroll past this story otherwise.
Scotland in winter is amazingly beautiful. And I’m lucky enough to experience this beauty at the moment ^^ These pictures were taken today at Loch Tummel, Rannoch Moor and Fortingall.

A little international perspective on neoliberalism and our US healthcare system.
Under the leadership of the Democratic Leadership Council (aka Third Way), today’s “Democrats” are the moderate Republicans of the 1990s. Please recognize that centrism (aka neoliberalism) is simply a more gradual, incremental concession to conservatism, but still a concession.
