Okay, folks. So. Tumblr’s jumped the shark in a big way, and I’m not even just talking about indiscriminately blocking all “adult” content on a platform that IS, in fact, primarily 18+.

Many blogs, like the wonderful @blackkatmagic , that are not especially NSFW have vanished.

(And I for one LIKE being able to go to curated porn blogs run by actual people and have a chance of finding stuff to my taste, it was one of the things that kept me on this hellsite, but that’s another issue entirely.)

I know lots of people are talking about migrating, but none of us are sure to where yet. Pillowfort seems to be an option, some people are talking about Twitter. But for now, it’s a mess, and even if we knew where we were going, it’s often a huge process, and a lot of us have stuff on tumblr that ONLY exists there. One possible quick solution to save your blogs, both NSFW and personal, is to import it to WordPress. I found this solution through from frantic googling on how to save an entire blog, text posts an all. There are several apps for downloading all the pictures from a tumblr, (Plently for Windows, but only a few paid ones for mac, of which Tumbelog Picture Downloader is working for me so far) but this is the only solution I’ve seen so far that allows you to save EVERYTHING. I downloaded my NSFW blog in like 10 min. My regular blog, which is significantly larger, is in the process of importing, but I don’t anticipate any problems. I will, of course, update you if I have any.  

This tutorial I found worked really easily. http://quickguide (.) tumblr (.) com/post/39780378703/backing-up-your-tumblr-blog-to-wordpress

I put parenthesis around the .’s like we’re back in FF-Hell, just in case tumblr’s new thing about outgoing links kicks in. You know what to do.  To break it down, just in case:

 Sign up for a WordPress.com account at wordpress (.) com/start You’ll have to create an account, with your email, a username, and a password. They should send you a confirmation email immediately, check it, activate it, and you’re good to go. On the site, it will ask you for a site name. That page asks you a bunch of other information too, but you only have to fill out the site name.

Then you have to give your site a URL. If you’re lucky, your tumblr URL is still available, if not you’ll have to come up with another one, sorry.

It will tell you if that option is still available for free.

Then it will ask you to pick a plan. Free is really good enough, I swear.

Now you’re set up! You can import your tumblr! The only differences from the linked tutorial are that the Import button is now on the first level menu, not in tools.

Hit Import, then you have to follow the link for “other importers”  at the bottom, to find the option for Tumblr.

Then you’ll have to sign in with tumblr, using your normal tumblr credentials. You’ll be redirected there automatically. You’ll have to allow Wordpress permissions on your blog.

Then your blogs, including all your sideblogs, will show up in wordpress.

Hit import, wait a WHILE depending on the size of your blog, and you’re done!

ALSO!!

I made my NSFW blog private for now, since I don’t know WP’s policy on NSFW.

This means that to access it, someone has to have an account and request access. But hey, part of our problem on this hellsite has been people going places they aren’t wanted, so I don’t personally see this as a bad thing. They can send a request from the landing site on your blog, you get an email, click a link in the email, and PRESTO, they have access. To make it private, go to Settings > Reading > Site Visibility. Go back and check, it took me changing the setting twice for it to actually stick. tl;dr, you can import your entire blog to wordpress in just a few steps.  I’m going to tag the hell out of this, in no particular order. PLEASE reblog this and spread the word so people know it’s an option. If you’re having trouble, PM me, and I’m happy to help.

I like adult content as well but I'm not against this notion. In fact it's a motion thats been WELL overdue! For the safety of the community and social media which is to express more appropriate content of expression like politics, music, art, sports, health, entertainment etc. Not running to watch porn because of your own sexual frustrations or to witness something that suppose to really be between those individuals who are just freaks and want to share the only thing that give them notice it clot in their lives. That's a PERSONAL problem. the idea of social media like Facebook, snap chat, Instagram And Tumblr is to move this country, hell technological world into a more promising future. Prompting and promoting careers, networking, etc What you don't realize and understand is that, your addiction to pornography and sex is clouding your judgement. Twitter haven't moved to support this notion as the other social media has done so. Therefore CARRY YO AS OVER TO TWITTER and all those other media outlets that aren't popular as the main high profile social media outlets. Stop fuckin crying. It's so. So. So so sad and pathetic!!!

There's kids up here watching this shit. There's sick people doing sexual acts IN FRONT of kids. LITERALLY. There's even a few of them that are believing and finding that there best life is to display themselves in a demeaning way as thinking they are only appreciated with the content that they display up here. Sadly there are ADULTS commenting on them videos and pictures saying very very molesting and pedophile commentary. THAT'S FUCKIN SICK!!

Unfortunately not few but MANY have to mess it up for the bunch! Get the fuck over it!!

If it means THAT fuckin much to you, go and attend sex parties and clubs. Trust me I'm not perfect. Im much of a freak as allot of dudes up here but what I DON'T so is allow that to cloud my judgement of what's wrong and right. Like I said there are tons of sex parties and sex clubs u can attend to get this sexual desiring satisfaction that you are craving for.

DC , atl NYC Philly la etc all those main states have TONS of them.

DC had crew club. Glorious Gym & Fitness ( which is a sex have) than you have clubs that promotes underwear and jock stripe parties. Plenty of times I've seen dudes fuckin ON THE DANCE FLOOR!!! So please spare your stupidity and ignorancy. Your worse than 45!!
