tumblr issue

EDIT AGAIN: Seems like I'm going to be waiting for a minute to see if Tumblr support will restore my page, and it will only be a temporary thing.
EDIT: I'm sure if you're a patron of me you also know other artists effected. It seems that tumblr has been ditched from the App Store, likely because of NSFW content and mass closing NSFW accounts is their response. I'll probably be looking for a new home. Stay tuned here and on twitter.
Just wanted to share a quick update-- evidently my tumblr got terminated, no clue why. I'm looking into it though, hopefully it gets sorted out quickly, just wanted to let you all know I'm working to figure it out.
Also, I'm hoping to have an art update coming real soon as well!

As I understand it now from reading twitter, Tumblr has an automated system meant to kill porn bot accounts and a lot of nsfw art accounts meet the same criteria. Supposedly they will restore your blog if you only ask, but that might take a while because I'm sure they have a lot of support tickets to deal with right now.
