DrGraevling's den

So Tumblr has gone completely off the rails this time. It’s kind of obvious that this was happening, seeing as they’ve for a long time tried to marginalize adult creators here by sneakily turning Safe Mode on for users during updates and adding extra steps and hoops for adult content. This time at least they’re being honest.

They don’t want us here anymore.

We, who most likely brought a large part of the users of the site here in the first place, have become something they no longer want, because they don’t want their nice little community tarnished by our presence.

I don’t know if this means Tumblr will completely go under or anything. I’m sure there are enough people here who mainly make family friendly content that the site will limp on and survive. I’m sure the next couple of months will be rough for the people who decide to stick around, though, and I’m not talking about smut creators, because we will be purged. No, I’m talking about all the ridiculous false positives on those anti-smut bots.

Anyway, the important thing is that you can keep following me on Twitter:

You can also check out my Patreon, of course:

I might try to save everything I’ve got here and make a separate Twitter for reposting my Tumblr material, but I can’t make any guarantees about that.

You know why. Unfortunately I haven’t given much thought where else to put NSFW stuff yet.

Really? Right before Christmas? Evidently, Tumblr is being run by Ebenezer Scrooge and little Timmy won’t have any jizz in his stockings come Christmas morning.

I guess all good things must come to an end. It’s been a crazy ride over here at Tumblr. I’ve laughed, I’ve cried, I’ve gone through hell and back emotionally over the years.. I’ve met some great new artists who’ve always kept inspiring me.

To the artists and all 11,6K followers I’ve gained here, I want to say:

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR STICKING WITH ME ALL THESE YEARS AND I HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL AGAIN SOON IN ONE OF THE CHOICES BELOW!

Anyway, you know the drill. You’ll be able to find me on the following galleries from now on.

Well, seems like this is over. Quite disrespectful way of getting rid of lots of hardworking ppl who made this site something valuable.

I send a big hug to all of those who will be having real trouble generating their income now that their fanbase it’s gonna be erased with just two weeks notice.

For those who want to keep track of my art I’ll be posting it on those sites:

Hey guys, here is my twitter, unfortunately tumblr will be removing nsfw accounts so i will no longer be uploaded here. Not gonna lie, I’ve made this into a little home for myself and I’m sad to go…I will be active on twitter and I hope to continue my uploads there.

Now that I have your attention, due to the recent events at Tumblr I will be moving my main base of operations to Twitter, so please follow me there! You can also follow me on some of the links below (might be under construction still). Any signal boosting is very much appreciated, thank you all.

I will be removing some of my more hardcore stuff from Tumblr, so hopefully this blog can stay active if I only post artistic nudes. Everything can still be found on my HF and other places, so fret not.

Many years ago, all of my content only got uploaded to one place.  A little forum called Darknest.  It’s a great place for all adult creators, but the reason I went there was because it allowed “manipulation” artwork AKA Machinema-style.  I was never a good artist in the conventional sense, so it allowed me to express myself in ways that few other places allowed.

At one point though, the (former) admins of the site decided they didn’t like manipulations anymore.  They started the process to remove the board I had put in years of creative work and just told me to basically learn to draw.  I was sad, I was angry, and I didn’t know what to do. 

Thankfully, the forum got new admins and reinstated my old board, but I admit, my love of the site never really recovered.  Even though I was a mod there following the return, I felt a bitterness I never told anyone about, and before I realized it, I sort of let the forum fad from my life slowly. 

I still support the forum on my own site, and I support the newer admins and mod team that are there now, just to be perfectly clear, but I just find it hard to log in there anymore because for some reason, it still hurts.  I was too much a coward to say it before.

But out of that, I gained something.  It drove me to make my own website, it made me look into social media outlets like Tumblr, which was the first site I signed up for and put effort into.  It was on tumblr, I got my first big boosts.  I still remember when I hit 1k followers, then 2k, then 5k.  So on and so forth till the 40K+ I had of today.  It gave my site exposure, and before I knew it, I had become, at least I feel, decently well known by others in the NSFW communities.

Years later, I would go on to have a successful patreon that allows me to make my stuff all the time, and I honestly feel it never would have happened without tumblr giving me that space.

Why do I bring all this up?  Pain, anger, sadness.  It feels like that event on Darknest all over again, only on such a larger scale.  I feel betrayed, I feel like my importance as a creator and a contributor on this site was worthless to the people that run it.  Tumblr decided I (and all other nsfw creators) were not important enough to even fucking try.

If this goes through, I know what will happen.  Tumblr says they will allow people to post SFW content on their blogs, but that was not why I came here, and I know the bitterness is going to consume any love I may have had for this site. 

If this goes through, then I don’t really want to be here.

To all those that follow me here,

THANK YOU.

You have all helped keep me creating and doing what I love, supporting me with likes and reblogs and kind words (and criticisms too).  I wouldn’t be here if not for all of you.  I can’t really say that enough.  If you want to find me, here are some other places I will still roam.

Hey gang, you probably noticed I’m re-blogging a bunch of artists I follow when they put out their list of links to other places you can find them.

Tumblr is already starting to flag everything that is NSFW (several of my own old posts and new reblogs just got tagged) so I suggest you guys try to follow folks you like ASAP, before their stuff starts getting deleted!
