Addendum: In the recorded discussion, we focused on the impact of the adult content ban on the every day Tumblr user. This decision’s implications for fan artists, however, has been decidedly more severe. For many, this will result in the loss of their primary channel for sharing work, and regrettably, in the short time we had to put this special together, we were not able to include this very important voice in our discussion. We encourage you to support fandom artists as they deal with this momentous change.
