Strike!

We released a video on Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok today about a filament I was going to go over to print on TikTok live.   All was well when suddenly, after a very busy half-hour of thirty or forty thousand views and about five hundred people in the livestream with me, TikTok decided to strike and remove the video, stating it violated their guidelines for inappropriateness and involved nudity.  

What?  We, first of all, didn't have any bad content in that or any other videos we post (at all) but second, what could it have been?   My husband appealed it and came downstairs to tell me as I was sitting behind the phone where people were watching the printer print, saying TikTok apparently thought a graphic model of a male Orc, who was dressed, qualified as nudity. 

TikTok restored the video a short while later.   I was impressed that they were on top of things both to watch for inappropriate content and then to restore the video when it turned out the content wasn't bad.  

The Big Boy Update:  My son was losing his mind earlier tonight while I was on the livestream.  I thought he was in trouble with his father.   He wasn't, he was upset he couldn't get past a level in a game he was playing and was complaining loudly and pitifully to either himself or whomever he was talking to in game. 

The Tiny Girl Chronicles:  My daughter's one-hundred balloons shirt for the hundredth day of school was a big hit today.   She, I think, had the most creative outfit of anyone in her class.  Her father's fingers and mine were a testament to our dedication to the first hundred days of school for her this year.
