Honestly I can’t believe that I’m watching this right now. This is This is the sweetest most gentle and loving and pure thing I’ve ever beheld and I feel so blessed to have seen this
A sea turtle swimming up to a nap in a giant barrel sponge.
ABSOLUTELY NOT! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLY CUTE
Good to know that sea turtles are the oceans version of cats
Wow. At first I was like, “Wait a minute, how they gonna nap underwater? Don’t they need to BREATHE?” So I looked it up and “A resting or sleeping turtle can remain underwater for 4-7 hours.” Holy cow!
I don’t usually share this kind of thing, and I will delete it later. But this June 20th the EU want to pass Article 13 that will destroy fair use on the internet and will effect non-EU residents too. Goodbye to making money from fan art and livestreaming games and parody videos. No can do. Visit saveyourinternet.eu to very simply send a pre-written email to you MEPs. Please spread awareness as there’s not much time.
Edit for anyone seeing this original post for the first time (idk if it’ll appear on reblogs but it’s worth a shot): I’ve heard from a large number of people this is merely alt-right hysteria cos it would mean censoring them. So I’m not supporting this anymore having seen some of what was actually written in the documentation about the articles. I wanna protect fair use, but I ain’t no alt-right supporter *mic drop*
We have till around the 4th July to try and fix this.
I believe that this now proposed law is flawed when it comes to fanart and fan created works. Although it’s apparently trying to protect creative work and publication that are posted online, by making sure they aren’t posted elsewhere. Websites will be required to put in a system that flags anything that breaches copyright so this could include fanart as the artist will not have a license for the characters used in the artwork.
I can see both the good and the bad in this proposed law change.
On one hand, my original artwork will be more protected than ever ( on my illustration Instagram account) it on the other hand, I may no longer be able to post fanart. My small tributes to show my appreiecation for a series or character.. I and many others are most likely in the same situation.
This is why I urge you to contact your MEPs. Explain your concerns as this could affect us all.
Heres hoping it’s not as bad as it sounds if it does stay 😦
this fucking article 11 and article 13 stuff is fucking bullshit.
basically means that a bunch of people in the EU JURI thing voted for websites to start using copyright programs. so memes using gifs from tv shows would get banned and taken down. fanmade content would probably get taken down. people have to pay the creators to use gifs and quotes or else itll get taken down.
fuck this. i am over this. people do not have the authority to decide how to operate the internet.
ive seen hardly anything about this online, and i wish it would have the same ripple affect as net neutrality did.
if you want more info on this, either just google it or message me and ill divulge all i know (which isnt much and might be inaccurate. but its better than nothing)
The part of this I don’t like is “they will most likely move on to an easier target.” Like I’m supposed to feel fine about someone else with a less sturdy door getting ripped off?
