Tumblr Porn (Remember the Internet, Vol. 1)
Literary Nonfiction. LGBTQIA Studies. Art. In this first volume of REMEMBER THE INTERNET, a series that tells a complete history of the Internet, one book at a time, journalist Ana Valens introduces us to the erotic gifs, hashtag fetish fan art, and sex worker resource blogs that combined to transform Tumblr into the vanguard of a user-generated sexual revolution. As she tells the story of her own online sexual and political awakening, Valens investigates how Tumblr's technical architecture made it a convenient laboratory for social justice and sexual freedom, one that would ultimately clash with the government's crackdown on sexuality online.
