Attention all! We would like to tell you a little bit about who we are! We have had to stay quiet about some things but would like to tell you all about our community’s new home. Many of you may have seen our site already, and we want to let you know that our landing page is in place to protect our name and give you a small tid-bit about our project. On our site, there are instructions regarding downloading your blogs from tumblr, and where you can find us on social media.

First and foremost: We are NOT affiliated with Tumblr, or ANY of its registered trademarks. We are the adult content alternative for when they cut us all loose on December 17th. 

Cumblr, LLC is a newly formed business focused on creating our community’s new home. Our office is in Newark, Delaware. We will be transparent about this address, and it will be the address you’ll see when signing up for our mailing list to stay informed about our progress! [ Head over to cumblr.com to sign up for the mailing list today! ] We will provide more information when we are legally allowed to do so!

The name Cumblr ™ is a trademark of Cumblr, LLC. So please, do not use this name for other similar sites! We are all part of the same community and we aim to give you the best place to blog adult / mature content.

Everyone watches porn, it’s time to have an open conversation about it. We aim to educate the community with vital information about safe sex, sexually transmitted diseases, sexual etiquette, consensual sex, sex positivity, sex addiction, pornography addiction, plus a few other morals and values we think the world could benefit from. We are absolutely open to suggestions here as well. 

What we are doing:

We are currently developing a social media platform that allows you to upload all of your old blogs from tumblr, and continue where you left off. 

We want to inform you of some things that we will allow on our site. We have been also working on a number of legal documents to ensure your safety when participating in our community. Please keep checking out the website for the release of these important documents. Please follow our guidelines… really, we don’t have that many. 

We Encourage - Nudity, sexually explicit content, consensual sexual acts, and NSFW (Not Safe For Work) content.

We accept - people’s blogs of all sexualities: including, but not limited to - straight, bisexual, lesbian, gay, transexual, pansexual and the list goes on! We also accept blogs from the BDSM community. If your “area of expertise” isn’t listed here, just let us know in the comments below!

We will not tolerate - Child pornography, zoophilia, or any other content that breaks local, state, federal, or international laws.

We pledge to create a safe place to migrate your old blogs, and to truly become the community’s new home. We have a multi stage implementation process in the works to ensure our users have the best experience possible on our site! 

Our Progress: We are planning on releasing some updates regarding our progress before D-Day (December 17th). Please stay tuned for an info-graphic outlining our short, mid and long term goals for this incredible project!

At this time, we are aiming to make this platform FREE to the whole community. Make sure to follow our ACTUAL Social media accounts to get the most up to date information:

We encourage you ALL to ask as MANY questions as you’d like! Comment below and please share this with the whole world! We will update this post with other questions that are asked by more than one commentator below.

There’s this emperor, and he asks this shepherd’s boy: how many seconds in eternity? And the shepherd’s boy says: there’s this mountain of pure diamond, it takes an hour to climb it and an hour to go around it. Every hundred years, a little bird comes and sharpens its beak on the diamond mountain. And when the entire mountain is chiselled away, the first second of eternity will have passed. You must think that’s a hell of a long time. Personally, I think that’s a hell of a bird.

Since its founding in 2007, Tumblr has always been a place for wide open, creative self-expression at the heart of community and culture. To borrow from our founder David Karp, we’re proud to have inspired a generation of artists, writers, creators, curators, and crusaders to redefine our culture and to help empower individuality.

Over the past several months, and inspired by our storied past, we’ve given serious thought to who we want to be to our community moving forward and have been hard at work laying the foundation for a better Tumblr. We’ve realized that in order to continue to fulfill our promise and place in culture, especially as it evolves, we must change. Some of that change began with fostering more constructive dialogue among our community members. Today, we’re taking another step by no longer allowing adult content, including explicit sexual content and nudity (with some exceptions).  

Let’s first be unequivocal about something that should not be confused with today’s policy change: posting anything that is harmful to minors, including child pornography, is abhorrent and has no place in our community. We’ve always had and always will have a zero tolerance policy for this type of content. To this end, we continuously invest in the enforcement of this policy, including industry-standard machine monitoring, a growing team of human moderators, and user tools that make it easy to report abuse. We also closely partner with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and the Internet Watch Foundation, two invaluable organizations at the forefront of protecting our children from abuse, and through these partnerships we report violations of this policy to law enforcement authorities. We can never prevent all bad actors from attempting to abuse our platform, but we make it our highest priority to keep the community as safe as possible.

So what is changing?

Posts that contain adult content will no longer be allowed on Tumblr, and we’ve updated our Community Guidelines to reflect this policy change. We recognize Tumblr is also a place to speak freely about topics like art, sex positivity, your relationships, your sexuality, and your personal journey. We want to make sure that we continue to foster this type of diversity of expression in the community, so our new policy strives to strike a balance.

Why are we doing this?

It is our continued, humble aspiration that Tumblr be a safe place for creative expression, self-discovery, and a deep sense of community. As Tumblr continues to grow and evolve, and our understanding of our impact on our world becomes clearer, we have a responsibility to consider that impact across different age groups, demographics, cultures, and mindsets. We spent considerable time weighing the pros and cons of expression in the community that includes adult content. In doing so, it became clear that without this content we have the opportunity to create a place where more people feel comfortable expressing themselves.

Bottom line: There are no shortage of sites on the internet that feature adult content. We will leave it to them and focus our efforts on creating the most welcoming environment possible for our community.

So what’s next?

Starting December 17, 2018, we will begin enforcing this new policy. Community members with content that is no longer permitted on Tumblr will get a heads up from us in advance and steps they can take to appeal or preserve their content outside the community if they so choose. All changes won’t happen overnight as something of this complexity takes time.

Another thing, filtering this type of content versus say, a political protest with nudity or the statue of David, is not simple at scale. We’re relying on automated tools to identify adult content and humans to help train and keep our systems in check. We know there will be mistakes, but we’ve done our best to create and enforce a policy that acknowledges the breadth of expression we see in the community.

Most importantly, we’re going to be as transparent as possible with you about the decisions we’re making and resources available to you, including more detailed information, product enhancements, and more content moderators to interface directly with the community and content.

Like you, we love Tumblr and what it’s come to mean for millions of people around the world. Our actions are out of love and hope for our community. We won’t always get this right, especially in the beginning, but we are determined to make your experience a positive one.

Pink….
