I am writing this article to detail my experience with Tumblr where I posted a photo shoot that, in my opinion, was artistic, personal self expression; which they seem to allow but was flagged to be in violation of their guidelines. 


I would like to know if other creators are facing this dilemma of getting flagged and not knowing why? 


Recently, I learned that Tumblr allows postings of mature themes, (nudity included)

within the realm of personal, artistic self expression. I posted a few photos, labeled them “Mature” according to Tumblr policy, but my post still got flagged in violation of community guidelines. In addition, Tumblr did not mention which of my photos caused the violation. 

After surfing Tumblr I did come across many creators whose posts clearly were sexual in nature, yet they are viewable to the public and not flagged. It reinforces my belief that specific creators get preferential treatment and the community guidelines do not seem to apply to them. 


What is the point of saying you allow mature themes (no porn) in the form of personal, artistic expression when it is selective. I decided to share my experience by way of a vote/poll (please vote below) where different people, various demographics can let me know what they think; perhaps I’m overlooking something.


How many other creators like myself are facing this challenge? Do you continue to post on the platform or do you leave it and move on? 


I think all platforms/ social media should be very clear which “specific” media violated their community guidelines. At the same time, the rules should apply to ALL creators equally! 


In conclusion, I would like to hear what the public thinks about this, perhaps I can learn something new. Also, if I am missing something let me know your thoughts in the comments.

Jobs Today Don’t Pay- My Personal Perspective

Introduction I wrote this article to illustrate my opinion that payroll jobs simply do not measure up to today's cost of living. The sacrifices a human being is forced to make, eating unhealthy, no life, sleep deprivation, no time to deal with important matters like landlord issues, banking, medical appointments all are backlogged. Jobs today are designed to keep the worker on the edge enough so he does not quit. However the slightest anomaly comes up unexpectedly the person is literally screwed into debt. This article will be about the simple fact that the job market has changed for the worse and it does not pay to work out there, the cost went up to the sky and the income remained the same or in some cases decreased.  I will only speak from my perspective and former experience in the job market which had very little positive and more negative. I worked many types of jobs, from customer service, administration and it was always the same pattern: exhaustion, no time, no life, just...
