happy pride
Is this the correct way to say this?
“Persuade the vote”
I’m meaning to say a sentence that means giving information that may make someone else choose one option over the other
Matter of fact I’m asking y’all too

Sorry for us politics posting, but we have until May 22, 2026 to submit public comment to the FCC:
More info from GLAAD:
https://glaad.org/fcc/
They have some good tips about writing a comment and protecting your privacy which, fuck it, I'll just paste here:
Providing an email address is optional. If you have concerns about privacy, you may use your initials or public address in your local area, such as City Hall. Do not use a joke name. It diminishes the comment’s credibility.
Your submission does not need to be long. A single, well-reasoned paragraph is sufficient.
Do not copy/paste a template comment. The FCC values unique perspectives, and an original comment carries significantly more weight in the public record. You can explain why this matters to you without revealing private or sensitive personal information.
Here's what I said:
“Free speech is a fundamental American freedom. I do not need a warning about seeing queer people, much like I do not need a warning about women, veterans, or any other group of people.”
Here's the link to submit your comment by May 22:

Why Tumblr Has Rolled Out ID Verification
UK legislation: Online Safety Act 2023
Brazil legislation: Digital Statute For Children And Adolescents
Apple App Store Age Verification
These are not tumblr specific policies. Tumblr is implementing age verification in response to legislative moves that were made months ago.
Tumblr is a failing social media site that has escaped death multiple times already; they do not have the social cachet to defy state regulatory agencies. We know they won't say no to Apple, either--the porn ban on tumblr was in response to Apple's crackdown on explicit content.
If you did not know this was happening, you were behind the curve. That is fine. You're caught up now. The next step is to link up with people in your country who are working to preserve privacy, to roll back these laws where they exist, and to prevent their passage where they do not. In the US the organization you want is Stop KOSA--in the EU you can start with Fight Chat Control.
Repealing ID verification and blocking chat control will help everyone, especially the most vulnerable. We can push this back, but we cannot get it done through the Feedback form. We have to get it done at the legislative level and lock it down so it cannot be forced upon us. I see lots of anger out there. Good. Put it to use.
Right now in the US, they're trying to pass a number of internet age verification mandates, including the Parents Decide Act and the App Store Accountability Act.
The single most useful thing you can do is to call your state representatives and tell them that you OPPOSE these mandates. Here is a script that takes less than 30 seconds to read during a call:
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY/TOWN].
I'm calling to urge [REPRESENTATIVE] to oppose the App Store Accountability Act, the Parents Decide Act, and any other legislation that mandates age verification on internet platforms. Current age verification methods are unreliable and threaten our privacy, and they let predatory tech platforms off the hook without accountability.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
IF LEAVING VOICEMAIL: Please leave your full street address to ensure your call is tallied.
The phone numbers for your representatives, along with this script and additional information, can be found here:
Various federal and state bills have been introduced to require age verification for internet platforms. While these bills’ purported purpos
IF PHONE CALLS MAKE YOU NERVOUS, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO CALL DURING BUSINESS HOURS!
It is perfectly acceptable to call and leave a voicemail after hours, so long as you include your address. Both ways result in your opinion being tallied, which is the single most influential way you can oppose these laws.
Try to call every day! Be LOUD! Make it as hard as possible for them to pretend that this is what their constituents want! This is how we put an end to this before it can get worse.

So to be 100% clear:
tumblr just added an update that requires you to verify your age in order to view "mature content". I'm not sure how they do the verification (haven't yet checked), but given recent similar updates from things like Discord, it most likely involves sending them a photo of either your face or your ID.
In addition, over the past few months, and also years in the long-term, tumblr has been incorrectly marking things as mature content. These include:
Notifications about missing persons and requests for help
Posts about youth liberation
Posts about sex education
Posts about how the mature content is poorly implemented
Posts about being trans, more specifically about trans women and transmisogyny by both tumblr and users on tumblr
Non-sexual selfies by trans women/transfems
Trans womens'/transefems' ENTIRE BLOGS even if the blog contains no sexual content
Reblogs made by various blogs, mostly trans women, which add no additional content but somehow are marked as containing mature content, when the original post is not
Posts talking about racism and antiblackness both on and off tumblr
Posts by black people, especially black trans people, that are non-sexual
And likely many more I haven't seen
In essence, this update has mandated that a majority of users must either a) submit their personal information to tumblr, a website whose moderation has been EXTREMELY biased against marginalised people and who I would not trust with my ID, or b) be excluded from absolutely all conversations tumblr decides are "mature content", whether they are actually sexual in nature or not. Furthermore, anyone not over 18 will also not be allowed to take part in these conversations, or even see them, or interact with many trans women or people of colour on this site, as tumblr decides.
This update is complete bullshit designed to censor and exclude marginalised people, poorly hidden under a guise of "protecting teenagers from sexual content", and they know it.
Also a lot of well-run platforms (in the technical sense of having good programming and security) have had user-data stolen recently and Tumblr is probably the worst run social media platform out there (in that technical sense) so even if you're not a marginalized person: you really shouldn't trust Tumblr with your ID or any other personal data.
So I've seen a spare blog post here or there about this. But I haven't yet seen any official notifications or posts from tumblr. From these random blog posts, I have no idea if this is limited to a specific region, or if it is tumblr wide.
If anyone has it, please link me to the official tumblr post about this.
as of May 8, 2026, you want the most recent @changes post. This affects users (who appear to be, based on IP) in the UK and Brazil, and the method they're using is specified in the post.
Go yell at your government about this; this is not something tumblr's doing for funsies. (And I mean all governments: the UK and Brazil recently passed laws age-limiting social media access, Australia's law has done nothing to protect kids, and the USA has several laws trundling along that would mandate this in one way or another, including in blue states like California and Massachusetts. )
I want you guys to all start making a bigger stink about Tumblr's Age Verification Horseshit.
Like they tried to change Reblogs and people rightfully got up in arms, this is a LOT worse. In order to have access to any sort of thing dubbed mature, and We haveALL seen what they think is mature, Everything from a black and white photo of a black woman's arm, to posts about IUD recalls, to a nude painted by a 17th century artist, to anything involving the word Trans; you have to send your personal information to a third party site that WILL get hacked, and you will be doxxed. And they can say "Oh shit, well it wasn't us who sent your name address and gender identity to Moldovan teenagers, here's a couple extra minutes in the ball pit.
That's bad enough!!!!!!!! But the entire idea of needing permission from state authorities to access anything labeled mature by our friendly AI overlords is some fucking Boll shit. Die Gedenken Sind Frie baby. This is all a reaction to people getting uppity about their lowly lowly rights and is being propped up by the same bad actors tht have made life unlivable. Fuck that shit.
"Well it's only being rolled out in Brazil and UK" Yeah, to start. "Well they're being forced to do this by laws." YOu know it's always really funny when these tech giants (Or whatever you call owning tumblr dot com) get really antsy about laws considering they pick and choose which ones they abide by.
This is a breaking point and it's going to be very interesting to see how we proceed from here.
i get this now and it won't let me click through to any 'mature' blogs :(
Where's the fucking. The form. The fucking form. Hang on, lemme find it.
Tumblr is a place to express yourself, discover yourself, and bond over the stuff you love. It's where your interests connect you with your
This! Please fill out this! Select "Feedback" and fill out the form! They won't necessarily be paying attention to us complaining in posts, but they will read these forms!
send in feedback! please!
even if you think this does not directly effect you, IT DOES! it is going to make more of a difference than you think. i already can't interact with a friend's blog that has been marked mature for no reason. tumblr's flagging system already has huge issues (either incorrectly flagging posts as mature or explicit, and also flagging content involving trans content of almost any kind) and it will act as a ban for some user's content. the UK law has already been in effect for over a year, and tumblr has been used as normal, so i don't see why they have suddenly decided they want to add an age verification. it's tech companies who can pick and choose to monitor information, this does not seem to be about laws (the law seems to be more of an excuse on why they CAN do it, not why they ARE).
When you submit a support ticket, you'll get an email from the auto responder. You'll need to reply to that email or they assume the automated reply solved your problem and close your ticket.
I would suggest insisting a human address the issues raised in your support ticket when you reply. If you're not satisfied with the answer you get after that, escalate.
This is what I sent in. Feel free to copy + personalize it if you want! (Don't do an exact copy as there's a chance it'll get flagged as spam instead of a legitimate feedback)
Kindly please rescind your dangerous and invasive policy of age-verification on Tumblr. This feature puts people's personal information at risk of third party hackers who can doxx us and reveal our information to stalkers, hate groups, and other dangerous people.
In addition, the process by which things get labelled as 'mature' on Tumblr is woefully inadequate and inaccurate. Anything from a photo of a black person to a public safety notice about IUD recalls can be inaccurately flagged as mature content. Meanwhile, I constantly see bot accounts and advertisements that display sexual activity and genitals without repercussion. The inconsistency is hypocritical.
Allowing us, the Users, decide for ourselves what we want to see via the dashboard post filters is best. Trust us to curate our own dashboards, as we have been doing. This user control is what makes Tumblr unique and appealing. Take that away, and you betray our trust - trust that has been built up over decades.
Keep Tumblr as a safe refuge for all the ex-Twitter and ex-Redditor migrants it has been in the past. Keep the features that these migrated users came here for: a unique, user-curated dash that isn't controlled by any algorithm, that trusts its own users to filter out what maturity level they want to see, and that doesn't require the collection of personal data in order to enjoy everything the platform has to offer.
Sincerely,
A Tumblr User

Passionx3/Passionxiv is my muse & inspiration. This is a girl whose progress we get to see laid out right in front of us, from years back. And no matter what type of video it is, I have never had to question whether or not she put her heart and soul into making it because it’s always there. She continues to amaze me and it’s been an honor to see her transform into the beautiful and talented editor she’s become!<3
We finally did it, y’all! We’re married 💍
