“KOSA wont pass, it got rejected the last two times!”

It wasn’t passed because people spoke out against it. People called and emailed their senators. So, CALL / EMAIL YOUR SENATORS. MAKE IT KNOWN THAT WE DO NOT WANT THIS BILL TO PASS!

“But its unconstitutional-“ There’ve been multiple bills passed before that are unconstitutional. This will not be any different to them, they do not care.

STOP KOSA!!!

KOSA made it out of committee, so now is the time to contact your senator and tell them to vote no on KOSA.

& if your rep is Dem: Remind them, please, that LGBTQ+ content - heck, SEX ED content - is considered obscene by the GOP membership, & maybe consider that keeping kids & teens from accessing either of these things is one reason your GOP colleagues are so eager to collaborate on this bill??

if your rep is GOP: Remind them that realistically, sites that host ‘adult’ content will likely have to collect & keep records of legal IDs, & data breaches happen *on the regular*? Do they know anybody who’s had their identity stolen? How excited are they for the day their *own* browsing habits are exposed by a data breach?

Remind them all that they might trust their opposite-party colleagues, but they *don’t* trust the opposite party any further than they could throw them, and think about every possible bad-faith interpretation of the bill before voting ‘yes’, for fuck’s sake??

I’m tired & deeply worried. The internet has been a relatively safe space for queer ppl the world over. If KOSA passes, it’s a big step towards waving goodbye to that world.

HI LET’S SHARE NICOLE’S WORDS ON THE SUBJECT! 

It has been literal years but every time I see Martin’s tweets posted somewhere and his word is shared as truth while her post is not shared it sort of reiterates the fact that we trust men to speak about feminism more than we believe women who experience it. 

Interesting, innit? https://medium.com/@nickyknacks/working-while-female-59a5de3ad266

Reading her account of how their boss treated her blows me away. Men are so emboldened that they will literally admit to illegal discrimination casually and face no consequences.

In all the years of seeing this post I’ve never seen a link to her side. Didn’t even know she’d written one.

Adding screenshots of her post. His whole post is there without needing a link. Hers should be, too.

Also, she posted this is 2017! It’s fucking 2020 and I’ve seen his side of this for years, but it took 3 years for her side to make its way to my dash…

I’ve reblogged his story at least twice; it’s time for Nicole’s.

two barely-avoided meltdowns later and the coke is IN the oven 👍 will post pics when it’s done

CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions

if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators

THEY ARE TRYING!!!!! SIGN THE PETITION TO GET THE DISNEY ANIMATORS' UNION RECOGNIZED

this petition is from IATSE (union), btw! it actually has credibility, unlike most change.org/etc petitions! please sign it!!

Here's an organization dedicated to protecting and restoring mangroves

Mangroves are so fucking important

you don't have to provide a reason :] feel free to share why you're choosing them though! pls be courteous

I’d best be seeing that anti JKR energy for this twilight show too bc Smeyer continuing to profit off the Quileute tribe is not cute

I keep seeing people on Twitter being all "I'm sure they'll be more respectful and mindful of the Quileute tribe this time around."

Except, they won't be. Even if they get actual Native American actors to play these characters, even if they bring on a Native American to serve as a cultural advisor, it wont matter. Why? Because Smeyer appropriated a real Native American tribe and twisted their culture and history in her fantasy books for her own profit.

This fictional Quileute Tribe is and always will be disrespectful to the real life Quileute tribe.

The Quileute Tribe is still taking donations to move out of the immediate tsunami zone as of April 2023. Instead of directing attention to this TV series if/when comes out (and even if it doesn't honestly), please consider supporting the tribe financially here if you can afford it.

ive said this before and ill say it again Etoiles for president you guys. i am so fucking serious. Because who else is doing it like him? who else discovers a major bug that has gone unnoticed throughout the server's entire runtime this far and can run the mathematical calculations all on his own because of his own nerd swag to prove it? who else was willing to fight for the lives of the eggs killed by that bug despite him never even having met them? who else in that same nerd swag creates an entire presentation also via mathematical calculations about the best armor sets on the server and causes us all to learn that diamond armor is actually better than slime armor? who else has more Kind and Generous and Likeable And Sweet swagger as him, who is incredibly rich and farms for hundreds of hours yet constantly gives that wealth away to his friends?

Literally who else is doing it like him. he'll stop at nothing to protect every single other person and egg on the server, he's kind to everyone and has the power and resources to do probably literally anything he wants, He has the extremely fucking corny slogan of literally "Reach for the stars" yet at it's at the same time such a good slogan and. AND. How can he get corrupted or brainwashed by the federation when im pretty sure the FEDERATION doesn't have Dark metal or netherite or a Banpack or Anything like that..... like im just saying....... What could they possibly have over him? that's right. Nothing. And let's be real it would be so funny to watch HIM of all people experience The Horrors like could you imagine

Also he told bbh once he had someone in mind to add to the server if he won the presidency who he referred to with she/her pronouns and on this 2/26 women to men server erm. Etoiles sweep right now i am so fucking serious

Hello, if you're feeling like doin something helpful today consider tweeting at Johnson and Johnson or making a complaint about the renewal of a patent on a tuberculosis drug that will, as always, disproportionately affect the global south. Not only will many die now, non-treatment of TB will lead to the evolution of more multi-drug resistant TB, a similar story to the evolution of strains of COVID we all know and love /s This is not a random campaign, this barrage will go on over the course of a week. The aim is to show that people in rich countries are paying attention and give a shit. You can help do this! For more information see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMhgw5SW0h4

Submit a report

https://secure.ethicspoint.com/domain/media/en/gui/28704/report.html Submit a report about the renewable of a patent on bedaquiline a Turbuculosis drug. Here's the information you'll need: Market - where you're from Market you're concerned about - This box sucks. Treat it like a video game you're trying to get through the form to get to the end bit. I put south africa, Ghana also has incredibly high rates of TB death, if you want do some research on where TB deaths occur and choose that box but it dunt matter too much our purposes specifically. Select the sector related to your concern or issue - Other Select the Region where the violation took place. - Just any of them Select the Company related to your concern or issue - Unknown/other For area of concern: Buisness integrity, Manufacturing, Research and Development, and Patient Safety or Human Rights Complaint: Evergreening the bedaquiline patent is a violation of your own Credo and shows that your business can't be trusted. Hundreds of thousands will die if this is not stopped. The in access to this drug will lead not only to deaths now, but also in the future and multidrug resistant TB grows unchecked. Drop the efforts to enforce the secondary patents If you don't wanna do that, consider flooding their twitter and instagram with comments. The aim is to show we're paying attention. Talk to ur friends and family about it, pay attention!

MASSIVE fuckin update!! The patent was renewed but organisation working in low and middle income countries have been given a liscence inorder to produce generic versions of bedaquiline!!!!! While there may come at time where we need to reapply pressure, this is HUGE FUCKIN WIN.

IT WORKED

We are currently awaiting the details (so if you have twitter, ask them for the details) but this is still fucking Huge.

Thanks to everyone who signed this and kicked up a fuss. Fuck Johnson and Johnson, look what we can do

on a serious note regarding the wga strike and (as of 1:50 AM PST 7/13) upcoming sag-aftra strike, dsa-la has a fundraiser called The Snacklist which provides snacks and water on the picket lines here in LA. right now the funds they have will not last through the end of the summer, especially given the current and upcoming heatwaves necessitating more supplies. if you have a couple of dollars to spare it's a great way to directly support the writers (and potentially the actors) during this difficult time!

happy first sag-aftra strike in 60 years to all who celebrate.

if you are an enjoyer of media (which i will guess based on your presence on tumblr that you are) please consider donating to the snacklist (linked above) or to any of the following mutual aid funds that directly support striking actors/writers, IATSE and teamster union members who are also out of work and by and large refusing to cross the picket lines, and nonunion PAs and assistants (like yours truly) who are directly impacted by the work stoppage. everyone in this industry works unbelievably hard to bring you the shows, movies, webseries, and variety programs that you enjoy and every worker deserves a fair contract. any support you can give is extremely meaningful.

The Entertainment Community Fund provides emergency financial assistance to anyone in the entertainment industry who is unable to pay their immediate basic living expenses such as housing, food, bills, and healthcare.

The Union Solidarity Coalition has been formed by members of the wga, sag, and the dga to help cover the cost of healthcare for IATSE and teamsters who will not get enough work hours to qualify for their coverage this year due to their refusal to cross a picket line.

The Hollywood Support Staff Relief Fund (also run by the Entertainment Community Fund but separate from the above link which supports all film and tv workers) offers assistance to tv and film support staff and assistants who are not protected by a union and have been displaced from low or entry level positions.

Drive 4 Solidarity is an IATSE organized event in August raising funds for all union and guild members. Tickets are available for those in socal but donations are being taken as well.

Humanitas Groceries for Writers fund provides WGA members with grocery gift cards.

Green Envelope Grocery is a grocery fund for all workers in the entertainment industry regardless of union status.

q!bad and fit are currently trying to fix sofia by putting one of the sus cats in her system because “anything is possible”

prev tags I’ll explain it for you >:D

Sofia is q!Maxo’s AI supercomputer daughter! she had been helping him and the Ordo Theoritas investigate the island for a while. her major discoveries include: quesadilla island canonically being located in Point Nemo, getting the french pilots’ crash transmission from the black box of the plane, and the eggs having metal/radioactive substance in their DNA.

But something happened to her a couple weeks ago, she blue screened, broke and we have no idea why :(

onto the sus cats- ever since the binary code entity attacked Forever’s Ninho hotel, weird already-tamed cats have been appearing, watching and following players. Fit has been followed by them on every stream lately. Bad has a theory of what if it has something to do with Sofia, because she really loves cats

so naturally they put the sus cat in a box and stuck it in her system to see what happens :D

jesus fucking christ

"i wish i could do something 😔 / i wish the wga had a kickstarter or a gofundme, i would throw money at it" good news! it's amazing how you can literally go onto the wga strike website or the wgawest linktree from their twitter and find links to support writers and other workers affected by the strike

Also, don't let this scare or intimidate you! The pressure is on for these studios, especially with the looming SAG-AFTRA strike. It's the studios that won't last until Christmas without the labor of writers and actors.

doesn’t this remind you of the first mission they gave them when they arrived in Quesadilla Island? two different teams going to different coordinates, separating them

also am i not thinking right or like. did the timer even do anything?

like okay i dont know if the nether was intentional like cellbit said that theyve mightve only opened it for the train to go through to tease it getting more people which explains why it was immediately closed

but the trains SEEMED to be activated by the redstone puzzle rooms WHICH WAS TOLD BY THE ENTITY NOT THE FEDERATION

so what did the timer do? cucurucho sent jaiden there to activate it. but nothing appears to have happened??/?/!/?!3?2 am i missing something

thank you for reminding me roier

WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THE BLACK SIGNS ???? QSMP GIVE ME ANSWERS FOR ONCE IN YOUR LIFE

oh and ANOTHER THING WE DONT HAVE ANSWERS ON WHO BROKE THE COMPUTER???? HMMM WHATS UP WITH THAT??? AND WHAT ABOUT SOFIA HMM??????SHE JUST FUCKING DIED AND NOBODY IS DOING ANYTHING

Either that or maybe Cucurucho’s working with the code against the federation? I remember Jaiden bringing up the idea that Cucurucho wanted her to do this but the federation didn’t
