Or typed? I ask because a couple of posts I wrote--
one from 2016 and
another from 2019--now have one of these in front of them:
|
Yeah, a sensative content warning. You know, that thing blogs get if they regularly post porn. I mean, that's what I heard. |
|
Pictured: basically me. |
I've been doing this for like twelve years now and I've never had one of these before. Evidently someone flagged me? I guess I don't know how this works, and finding out seems to involve a lot of reading of end user agreements and guidelines, so really there's no way to know. According to the email they sent me I can update the sensitive content and then re-publish or something and that's fine, whatever, but I'm not actually sure how this happened in the first place. For one, I think like maybe, at most, five people actually read my blog and I know all of them. Have I been betrayed? Has someone close to me ratted me out?

Singer Bryan Adams also pulled out-- let me finish--of some shows in the State. |
I'm not saying I don't deserve it, but I'm not super clear on precisely what in the posts in question warranted the flagging. The 2016 post is about how the website, XHamster, which I understand to deal in adult content suspended operations in North Carolina in response to law that allowed business to discriminate against queer people. A spokesperson for the site called out North Carolinian's robustly diverse pornographic preferences (as evidenced by XHamster's each history) as evidence of hypocrisy in passing their bigoted laws. That is, for a State with homophobic laws, they sure do love gay porn.

I suppose my admittedly obvious jokes about Sodom and Gomorrah could conceivably be considered
adult, but I mean, the definition seems a little squidgy. The 2019 post on the other hand was about the (first) impeachment of Donald Trump, and how maybe he wasn't on the up and up. I don't think it rises to the level of bullying as outlined in the community guidelines, but conservatives are threatened by M&M's so who can even say with these people?
It looks like I can request a review or something but I don't know, is it even worth it? On the one hand I just don't like the idea that some rando can, without offering a specific criticism or complaint, get my blog slapped with a Sensitive Content Warning. On the other hand, that all seems like a lot of work when I could just move on with my day.

There are so many other reasons to take issue with my blog: frequent spelling errors, incorrect use of punctuation, an over-reliance on images with joke captions. Why are you even reading this? I mean, I wouldn't. |
