I think if you talk to the people at lemmynsfw.com you might be able to find a space there. They certainly won't blacklist you for the content, even if you don't like the term.
Thank you!
To be clear about my dislike of the term it's twofold: One it excludes sex workers (because sex work is real work thus saying not safe for work is weird considering that) and it's also not explicit enough about what kind of thing is behind the warning. Is it lewd? Is it drugs? What exactly is the thing that might not be safe to view at work? Sure there might be other context clues sometimes, but that's not always a guarantee.
You're right, it's a very broad term with a few weird gaps. Perhaps society will start defining some new terms, tags, descriptors or whatever to add that nuance. Good luck with your endeavors!
Thank you for understanding and I hope so!
Thank you, you too!
