They occur in around 80% of Asians, and 80% to 85% of Native American infants. Approximately 90% of Polynesians and Micronesians are born with slate grey nevus, as are about 46% of children in Latin America, where they are associated with non-European descent. These spots also appear on 5–10% of babies of full Caucasian descent. African American babies have slate grey nevus at a frequencies of 90% to 96%.

Super cringe. I'll take the hate, though, if it means I don't have to look at an exposed ass unless I want to.

That's not what you wrote originally though? Don't write "the community has spoken" immediately followed by "I don't care what you all do, I do what I like". That's kinda the opposite of what you postured as in the beginning.

Or was that the royal We and you are the community?

And that's regardless of the fact that I agree that the photo falls under the original definition of NSFW.

Members of the community have made their opinions known to me, and asked specifically that this instance of nudity be marked as Not Safe For Work. It's a reasonable request and an easy fix that I cannot do myself. The buttons I have let me lock posts, nuke posts, and ban people, but all I need is a button that lets me NSFW the thumbnail of an otherwise cromulent post.

I personally want to consent to view a NSFW/NSFL thing, whether it's as innocuous as a baby ass or something of a greater magnitude. We just have to all come to an agreement on where the boundaries are. Full resolution ass cracks seem to set the lower boundary.

And I do care what you all do. I misspoke if it came across that I'm only out for mine, or I'm drunk with banhammer power. I care. Deeply. Especially at 2:14am. The Fediverse is still so very small and tenuous, and we (royal and otherwise) are still figuring out how to navigate and interact and exist in the space. So now we know something new. And Royal We have to fix the sidebar again.

Thanks for the elaborate answer, I somehow took your original posts in a more aggressive tone than you probably meant them.

Just some short remarks:

OK, that is seriously lacking in mod tools then
Ah okay, if other people reported it as well, that makes it more understandable, but we as non-mods can't see that (at least I don't know how)

3.Thanks for the mod work! It is a thankless job and you need to interact with people like me. I see from your response that your heart is in the right place.

And thanks for the kind words. I'm sure there's a mod tool suite out there that does everything I want it to, but I'm just not that sort of tech literate, so I work with what I have. And yell in the comment section from time to time.
