REBLOG if you have amazing talented artist friends!
in the latest cyber-news: the internet archive has lost their case against 4 major publishing houses (verge article). they’re going to appeal, but this is still a bad outcome. the fate of the internet is currently hanging in the balance because 4 multibillionare publishing groups missed out on like $15 of combined revenue during the pandemic because of the archive’s online library service. it’s so fucking stupid.
for those who don’t know what the internet archive is, it’s a virtual library full of media. books, magazines, recordings, visuals, flash games, websites - a lot of these things either don’t exist anymore or cannot be found & bought. heard of the wayback machine? that’s part of the internet archive. it is the most important website to exist, and i don’t say that lightly. if the internet archive goes down, the cultural loss will be immeasurable.
so how can you help?
boycott the publishing companies involved in this. they’re absolute ghouls, frankly, and don’t deserve a penny. the companies involved are harpercollins (imprints), wiley (imprints), penguin random house llc (imprints), and hachette book group (imprints). make sure the websites are set to your location as it may differ worldwide.
learn to torrent. download a torrent client (i recommend transmission), a vpn (i recommend protonvpn - sign up and choose the area that’s closest to your continent/country), and hit up /r/piracy on reddit for websites. with torrenting, you can get (almost) any media you want for free in high quality, with add-ons such as subtitles, and with no risks of loss. i would also recommend getting into the habit of watching stuff online for free. the less you can pay to a giant corporation, the better.
get into the habit of downloading and archiving materials. find a TB external hard drive, ideally the higher the better. it’ll probably cost around $60 for 1TB and continue to go up, but they’re so so useful. if you can’t afford a drive, look for any GB harddrives or memory sticks you have lying around and just fill them up. videos, pdfs, magazines, songs, movies, games - anything you can rip and download and fit on there, do it, because nothing is permanent.
donate to the internet archive. this is the most important option on the list. the IA relies entirely on funding, and it’s going to need more to fight this case. whatever you can donate, do it. i promise it’s helpful.
and finally…

Hello! The first Submas story I ever read was written by you, and I was wondering what you think would have happened if Ingo had been sent to Hisui as a kid. Would he still have become Lady Sneasler's Warden? There are 2 child Wardens already, as of the events of Legends Arceus. What do you think Emmet would be feeling and thinking? I love your writing!
I think he still might have become her Warden because I'm sure the Pokemon have some hand in the selection of Wardens! Its obvious that ancient Hisui puts more faith in children and more responsibilities onto them than modern society, so I think he would have been named as her Warden. Now he's just pocket-sized and carryable

Hey so im curious about something. Reblog this and put in the tags if you are introverted or extroverted and what your favorite weather is. Sunny vs rainy or whatever! Consider this a super informal study. If you want to help but not participate untagged reblogs are still welcome. Depending on the results I might just do a write up. Watch this space!
POST PLUS IS COMING, WHETHER YOU WANT IT OR NOT!
Despite the fancy survey, changes to the UI and TOS reveal we’re getting the service in the future whether we want it or not. Obviously, Post+ is a terrible idea that is trying to bank revenue on user content. Unlike patreon or onlyfans, tumblr’s primary focus is on FAN content. The legality of this is NOT in the users favor and as the new tumblr TOS states, said users will be entirely liable for whatever legal matters arise.
SO WHAT ARE WE DOING?
Besides filling out the survey, it’s time to show tumblr we mean business and show our displeasure by hitting them where it hurts.
Ad revenue.
We’re proposing a 24 hour log off as phase one of this protest.
WHEN IS THE PROTEST?
AUGUST 6th, 2021 12 am Eastern Time (US) 5 am Greenwich Mean Time 6 am Central European Time 8 am Moscow Standard Time 1 pm Australian Western Time 2 pm Japan Standard Time 3:30 pm Australian Central Time 4 pm Australian Eastern Time AUGUST 5th, 2021 11 pm Mountain Time (US) 9 pm Pacific Time (US)
THE END TIME IS 24 HOURS FROM START TIME!!!
So no posting, no queues, no likes, and no reblogs!
WHAT IF I CAN’T/WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?
Like this post and share it AS MANY TIMES AS POSSIBLE. Use the hashtags #tumblrlogoff2021 or #postplusprotest on ANY and ALL social media.
WILL THIS WORK?
Maybe, maybe not. It’s an attempt at doing SOMETHING.
Listen up!
You see a post like this? Where OP might hurt/kill themselves? You hit that button that I circled
Hit that.
Click Suicide or Self-harm Concern
Yes.
Fill in the rest of it, and hit submit. The "content you reported" will fill itself in
Tumblr will follow up and help them.
Warning: this is only for mobile. If anyone knows how to do this for desktop, please add it!
This could SAVE SOMEONE'S LIFE.
YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE NOT TO REBLOG THIS.
I DON'T GIVE A FUCK IF IT DOESN'T GO WITH YOUR BLOG'S THEME.
And yes, REBLOG. Liking does no shit at all. This isn't ig.
You reblog, people see it. You don't, people don't see it. This shit's that simple.
This could save someone's life. It's not a joke.
I've had glasses since second grade. I'm thankful to my teacher for caring enough to notice that I had to walk to the front of the classroom to read the board every class
reblog if you wear glasses. too many mutuals don't know they have glasses wearers in their midsts
14,000 kids will die. This CANNOT be allowed to happen
Let’s not forget that there are government officials saying that black and brown kids should go back to school first in all this
I doubt this will get much traction on here, but Puerto Rico’s governor has just passed Código Civil (Civil Code) that has loopholes regarding women’s and LGBT+ rights. This code was passed despite activists’ call for a veto, and was intentionally speedily passed so that public hearings would not take place
In a nutshell, women’s bodily autonomy has the potential to be restricted which can take away their right to abortions, and the discrimination bans against the LGBT+ community are able to be overridden.
5 trans people have died violently in Puerto Rico since the beginning of 2020.
I ask my followers and mutuals to please reblog. There is so much going on in America today and this is one thing to add. There are protests for #BlackLivesMatter in Puerto Rico and a significant black community there. As an Afro Latina and a member of the LGBT community, I ask you to spread this and help.

Gen Z is making nihilistic jokes all the time.
Gen Z is saying you want to die and hearing your friends say they want to die and not quite knowing if they really mean it anymore and being scared that they do.
Gen Z is not making those jokes so much after someone really does die.
Gen Z is knowing exactly why every door on campus needs an ID card to open.
Gen Z is knowing that those locks won’t do shit if something really happens.
Gen Z is wondering when someone will come to your school and start killing your friends.
Gen Z is hating the shitheads in charge and just waiting until you can finally do something about them.
Gen Z is being torn between wanting to die and wanting to overthrow the government.
Gen Z is being tired of being treated like a child when our childhoods were ripped away from us years ago.
Gen Z is growing up too fast but still no one else will take you seriously.
Gen Z is angry.
Gen Z is done.
Gen Z is here and you’d better watch your asses.

Sarai: Here’s a fun Christmas idea. We’ll hang mistletoe, but instead of kissing, you have to FIGHT whoever else is under it.

Undertale kept me alive, AND I SHALL DO THE SAME
Okay, so- I have seen people getting bored/uninterested of/in the Undertale Fandom and dropping out- so- I’d like to know something...
Please reblog if you’re still into Undertale or it’s AUs or ship children!
Ignore if you’re not…
@marblehornetsncreepypasta I relate SO WELL
My mind is like an internet browser. 17 tabs are open, 4 of them are frozen and I don’t know where the music is coming from.
