The Starting Bloq Ep 17: Hashtags and Female Nipples

Saturday, June 22nd, 2019

with artist Dave Palumbo

On today’s episode, my friend Dave Palumbo and I talk about Instagram, Facebook jail, and the difficulties in navigating the social media waters. Dave had some recent hurtles with hashtags on Instagram that left him perplexed and frustrated. Myself, I was put in Facebook jail, twice now, for posting an art image featuring a nude female figure. Most of the conversation between Dave and I focuses on the enigma that is the “community standard” and trying to determine if we were being censored or quarantined.
