In to everything that is weird and wonderful. Most of it is safe for work, some of it isn't. Alternative gay dude with too much time on his hands. Welcome to a peak into my mind. Just a small collection of random shit that I find off the internet. Not sure what the theme to this blog is but if you like what you see feel free to follow. Gimme more followers :-p
in case you don’t know, Gail Simone wrote Deadpool
in fact she relaunched Deadpool
I just want to say, I think people are making a bigger deal of this than they should, to be honest.
It’s not that he didn’t recognize me (why would he?) and it’s not that I thought he was ‘sexist.’ It was just a guy excited about Deadpool and he started telling the closest person in line.
I said a bunch of times after posting this tweet that I didn’t think he was being sexist, it just seemed kind of funny. I live in a tiny small town, there’s no reason for him to think someone who wrote Deadpool was in line with him.
AND the few times I’ve told a guy who talked about the movie that I used to write the character, they were universally very positive and excited about it. Not one bad experience.
So, while it would be nice if people didn’t just ASSUME that a woman wouldn’t know who Deadpool was, I didn’t ever think it was this big deal, I just thought it was kind of funny that the ONE person he chose to explain Deadpool that day is actually given a shout-out in the movie. That struck me as kind of amusing.
He wasn’t being a dick, he just was excited about Deadpool, and assumed I wouldn’t know who Wade Wilson was. Not a big deal at all.
If you’re European, in a couple of weeks you will be denied any and all access to fandom contents on Tumblr and everywhere else on the internet. Here’s why.
On June, 20th the JURI of European Parliament approved of the articles 11 and 13 of the new Copyright Law. These articles are also known as the “Link Tax” and the “Censorship Machines” articles.
Articles 13 in particular forces every internet platform to filter all the contents we upload online, ending once and for all the fandom culture. Which means you won’t be able to upload any type of fandom works like fan arts, fan fictions, gif sets from your favourite films and series, edits, because it’s all copyrighted material. And you won’t also be able to share, enjoy or download other’s contents, because the use of links will be completely restricted.
But not everything’s lost yet. There’s another round of voting scheduled for the early days of July.
What you can do now to save our internet, is to share these informations with all of your family members and friends, and to ask to your MEP (the members of the European Parliament from your country) to vote NO at the next round, to vote against articles 11 and 13.
Here you can find more news and all the details to contact your MEP:
We have just a couple of weeks to stop this complete madness, don’t let them dictating the way we enjoy our internet.
#SaveYourInternet now!
I’m not from Europe but #Save yourInternetEuropeans
Fuck!!!!….
PLS GUYS VOTE!!!!!!!
Why does this have so few notes??? When American Internet was in danger, everyone helped you guys. At least do the same for us.
Fandom means a lot to me and other Europeans - I can’t imagine a world where I can’t see or share Star Wars gif sets and Reylo fanart or write Star Wars fanfic - Please help us
I’m an american but studying in Germany and dammit I need fanfic
Just wanna point out that this was a collaborative art and musical project between Xan Griffin and Peter Mohrbacher. You can listen to Xan Griffin’s full Zodiac album on his youtube page. It’s really good music.
Devil’s Tramping Ground a wooded section of Chatham County, North Carolina. A forty foot in diameter circle can be found there. Any objects that appear in the circle will mysteriously disappear or get moved from within the circle. No wildlife, vegetation, or inanimate objects can be found in the circle known as the Devil’s Tramping Ground. This phenomenon was first discovered in the early 1800s and is believed that Satan paces around this circle and ponders about ways to undo mankind..
boy scout troups have tried camping on it, and woken up in their tents a few miles away. Some guys tried to stay up all night in a tent on the spot, and later reported that a soft, soothing melodic voice lulled them to sleep and they too woke up a few miles away
I just love the idea that Satan has a specific spot for pacing and pondering
that doesn’t sound demonic, that sounds fae. surprisingly nice seelie fae, considering they woke up the same age as when they went to sleep, and not even hallucinating or with their hair turned white or anything. i bet if you left a bowl of milk and some honeycomb there you’d have good luck all year.
Americans reach for the Devil as the catch-all explanation for supernatural shit just so readily when there are so many other candidates.
well, you gotta understand, ‘the devil’ in american folklore isn’t exactly satan. he’s more of a trickster figure, albeit a dark one. he can’t resist a gamble or a challenge, and it’s possible to beat him. meet him at the crossroads and he’ll tune your guitar for you, guaranteeing fame. shoe his horse while blindfolded and you’ll be rich, as long as you don’t peek.
the american folklore devil is basically the same trope as the european fae.
