I’m going to be honest. Zero empathy for formerly trans masculine detransitioners who wax poetic about how testosterone made them sooo ugly and they just weren’t prepared for it and how the evil trans cult destroyed their feminine beauty. That’s not testosterone’s fault, that’s not trans people’s fault. That’s a genetic fault. Take it up with your bald-headed daddy. Get a toupee and get a grip.

@staff openly tagging face selfies of trans women as sexual content after you already lost ONE lawsuit over queerphobic moderation is quite a fucking move

Lawsuit (linked here) required tumblr to:

• Train all employees (including subcontractors) on New York City Human Rights Law and unconscious bias, with a focus on sexual orientation and gender identity
• Have humans review user appeals on adult content. Previously they only had humans review post-removal appeals
• Revise the language used in appeal process for users
• Search random sample of previously filed appeals for terms involving sexual orientation and gender identity to identify bias and retrain AI image classifier
• Hire an expert in image classification to remove algorithmic bias around sexual orientation and gender identity and train employees on addressing image classification bias.
• Have an image classification expert complete a evaluation on bias in moderation and steps taken to address it.
• Search filed appeals after new review process in place for terms involving sexual orientation and gender identity to identify bias. Monthly reports of bias will be sent to New York City's Commission on Human Rights for 18 months.

Would be very interested to see these reports on bias as clearly it has not worked!

They also terminated someone's blog that she had for ten years for disputing the report by walking through all the community guidelines that she did not break. They claimed it was a mistake and would be unflagged and instead

1. Her account was terminated

2. The post remains flagged

This isn't a glitch. This isn't a coincidence. This is targeted harrassment.

there's something compelling to me about the fact that sometimes leaving a blade or bullet inside the wound it made is the only way to prevent you from bleeding to death. something about the symbolism of it. when the thing designed and intended to kill you is the only thing keeping you alive.

also yes i do enjoy a bit of penetration imagery and the perverse intimacy of violence. if you must know.
