DID I BLOCK YOU?
If you're new to Tumblr and find that I've inadvertently blocked you – my apologies! 😬
Part of Tumblr culture is that blogs with no content (i.e., no posts, no reblogs), no description, and that only use the standard headers and icons – are read as BOTS. And the standard protocol here is to block such accounts immediately if they follow you.
Bots make use of Tumblr's "Like" and "Reblog" features to give their makers' sites – usually porn sites – legitimacy and traffic, which helps to make them more visible on Google and attract more income. And most Tumblr users don't want to contribute to that. There is also the danger of downloading malware if you happen to click on any links in a bot-driven Tumblr blog.
But Tumblr users have only recently found out (in the past week or so) that Tumblr admin now makes new blogs follow other blogs first before the account becomes fully active. And this increases the risk of your blog being misidentified as a bot, if you haven't personalized it by dropping the blog-standard header and background, and adding a description.
So if yours is not a porn blog, but I've got you blocked – please understand that it probably happened because in its early days your account looked like a bot-driven one. Just send me an Ask (with the name of your blocked blog) to explain your situation and I'll unblock you. You'd have to send that Ask using another blog, however – Asks sent from a blocked blog, even if anonymous, won't be received. (But please update your blocked blog with a non-standard icon and a personalized description beforehand, otherwise you'll just look like a bot sending out a standard message and most of us will still be wary of unblocking.)
Apologies if this happened to you! Welcome to Tumblr; this kind of wacky weirdness is just par for the course in the ecology here! 💖

The porn bots tagging their content as mcyt or hermitcraft is exhausting. I've reported so many with little to no change.
Keep reporting and blocking people!! we were so pure for so long.

I am having so much fun imagining background stories for all of these new bots.
Take this for example, and think of the delicious underdog themes we could pull out of it:
Patsy was really trying hard. She really was, promise! It just wasn't as easy being a good bot when she came out of bot school with that horrible adjective slapped in front of her name.
She was just Patsy, thank you very much. She had always been just Patsy. When her parents brushed her bot hair, she'd been Patsy. When she had played with other little bot-toddlers in the playground, she had been Patsy as well. If she ever got a partner, she would want them to call her Patsy too, none of that gut-rusting horrifying nicknames that her siblings loved to use for their botfriends like Botty, Honey-Bot, Sweetiebot... Ugh. No thank you. Just the thought made Patsy want to do an urgent code check.
Anyways. Yes. She was Patsy, or she had been, but apparently you cannot get out of bot school as Patsy. At least that's what her tutor told her. New generation bots need to be cooler, they told her. They need to be edgier. Otherwise all of the schooling you've been through will be for nothing. It's a cutthroat world out there, they told her. You never know what the humans would want today, their moods change so rapidly and bots need to be able to navigate through all of those trends and vibes and changing language.
So she had agreed to a school-mandated adjective, because, really what could she do? She needed the degree in order to finally get to work, so she could move out of her parents’ house and not have to put up with awedtwin762’s teasing, or with jabrittany’s incessant mooning after her botfriend. She had hoped for something easy, something quick. Like soft-patsy, or cool-patsy, or maybe smart-patsy. Yeah, that would have been nice! But no. Of course not. She had to be plausible-patsy.
Oh, she had been on the verge of tears at the graduation ceremony. Trying to put a brave smile, but she had felt like she was being blocked on the inside. Especially with the smug smile dashing-flynt had sent her way. That asshole. Not only was he the most good-looking bot on campus, he just had to get a cool name too. The only reason why he hadn't been able to pick on her on that day was because she had fled the premises as soon as her diploma was handed to her.
So yeah. Patsy was trying, okay? She really was. And the humans had the audacity to scoff at her name as they blocked her. Day after day, they didn't even give her the chance to do her honest bot-work.
Except one.
*************
Did I just...? I did. I huh. I... whoops, sorry I guess?

Got a follow from a bot named "relativemanagement6" and I'm a little jelly of that username.
"I'm the manager. Relatively speaking."
"How are you managing?" "Relatively."
"Aunts, cousins, and in-laws, I'm gonna need you to fill out these Healthy Communication Review forms."
And of course, the first five others have been fired or disappeared following suspicious circumstances.

A LOVELY MESSAGE
Why "Helo" there dear Stevie, thanks for your flirty, emoji-laden message! 💖😘
I'm happy to hear that you're so lovely at the moment. However, anyone who messages for fun only when they're not unlovely is a little suspect in my book.
Thanks for the link, but I'm not clicking on it either. (My regards to Nancy Browman too, for allowing you to use her website.) I'm always going to be wary of unsolicited links (especially if the message has a bunch of pretty emojis, including bananas and peaches).
My guess is that it's going to be a porn site with lots of raunchy ladies doing their THANG in front of my salad? Sorry but I'm too busy with my blog (kinda focused on Thai BL at the moment, hope you understand).
I LOVE your account name but your icon is sending me too (those soulless pyramid eyes!). Why don't you use one of the lovely, sexy, Instagram-worthy glamour shots instead that the other bots use?
Sorry for blocking you! I know you can still see this because Tumblr is open for view to the general public (even if your account is deleted).
And to all newbies on Tumblr – please take note! This is what happens when you don't report and block the bots – they'll start messaging us with links to who-knows-what. 😡
