This should be nsfw.

I'd classify as jazz or maybe experimental, not rock. But as Willy said, a rose by any other name...
Now I'm reminded that Tom played this on Fernwood Tonight, thanks for invoking that memory.

There was a long running rumor that it was Elvira in the picture. She wasn't sure if it was her either. She didn't remember doing the shoot but thought it might be her. The boyfriend of the actual model wrote to her so now she believes it most definitely isn't her.

Idgaf about who it is I only give a fuck about it not being labeled nsfw.

[–] KimjongTOOILL 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

She has pasties on.
I'm not OP so I have no control over whether it's labelled as NSFW
If you wrote the original comment that I replied to on an alt account, you could have mentioned "Hey op, please mark this NSFW." instead of something so vague.
If you didn't write the original comment that I replied to, then maybe make a comment that says something to the effect of the previous point.

I was not who you replied to on an alt account and fair enough I like the stylized response

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’m the OP (for this community, I crossposted the post) and the mod for this community. Like you said in number one she has pasties on (pasties aren’t nipples) and if you were to Google the album you’d see the same image without restriction. So, if Google says it’s not-NSFW then who am I to disagree?

[–] KimjongTOOILL 3 points 1 year ago

I agree with you. There isn't anything overly sexual here that warrants it.

Was just trying to explain to the dude who commented on my reply how to "use his words" instead of his previous strategy of targeting an unrelated bystander reply.
