Fascinating but also insanely creepy. I had a Flickr about 15 years ago when I was young and single. Don’t remember doing anything like this

This is crazy. When did Flickr start censoring? You sight comes up with a black page that says "adult content." I couldn't fine the Offending photo. And, why is my profile pic covered up here? How do we protest!

This was a first for me and given the huge volume of adult images the site has, it seems unimaginable my shots of a crowd on the Brooklyn Bridge is unfit for broad public viewing. Sorry I don't know what you mean by your profile pic covered up, but if you want to send me a screenshot w regular email I'd be curious to check it out.

I have no idea what the Flickr process is their link was useless but it is clear to me we need more than individual online fights we need a revolution and fingers crossed that's already begun with censorship of the threat, feet in the street! :~)

I just shared a few of these images on my Instagram (and FB) with photo credit to you! 🙏🥰

Awesome, thrilled to hear that! The only thing happier for me than getting the pictures is having folks share and enjoy them. Lucky us that works out perfectly. :~)

I even sent them to my Expat American friend who lives down in Oaxaca Mexico. She said she was “encouraged about such visible pushback”!

That's wonderful, courage is contagious and the more people see we are the many, asserting our right as free people to make health choices for ourselves, the sooner this insanity will end. There are other events in my Flickr album the day in Times Square was massive. Saturday Nov 13 at Pfized HQ should be huge too. Thanks for the great update and happy you're sharing! :~)

A good portion of my ‘Followers’ (I assure you I don’t have alt), know my ‘content’ and appreciate it! My IG ‘posts’ roll over to my Facebook page and My Stories, those ‘Friends’ on FB are a whole other kettle of fish! They only like the pictures of babies, puppies, food, or Vaykay pics! They never ‘like’ controversial memes or pictures like yours! Hee! Hee! But they still need to see them! 😉😜😂

More accurately I created an account @PamelaDrew to follow Clark Stokely's art when he left Twitter but it doesn't let me add pics from a desktop so it was only good to message him years ago.. I haven't looked at it since.. kind of a a stickler for accuracy.. even w inactive account lol
