#5yrsago California wants an end to taxpayer subsidy for WalMart

mostlysignssomeportents:

The State of California is considering legislation that would fine businesses $6,000 per employee who has to turn to Medical, the state’s version of Medicaid. The bill is especially targeted at WalMart, which notoriously counsels its employees to use food stamps and other social programs to make up for the shortfall between the wage it pays and the minimum cost of staying alive:

How to Tell if Somebody is fandom!old

icouldwritebooks:

- They use terms like lemons, smut, or UST to talk about the genre of their fic.

- They have squicks.

- They want you to have squicks. Which isn’t to say that they want to squick you, just that it’s a useful term.

- *glomps*

- They leave long comments on everything the read. Possibly not in the tags. They might do something super bizarre like send a message or put their thoughts on the end of your post.

- They write disclaimers on everything. Or on literally anything, since nobody does that anymore.

- They write about orbs, and those orbs are cerulean.

- Or literally anything else is cerulean. Cerulean is an outdated term. I’m calling it.

- The tongues of their characters are still battling for dominance, even though it’s 2017, and really a winner should have been declared by now.

- They have a fear of Mary Sue.

- Characters in their modern AU are chatting on AIM instant messenger, and calling each other on landlines. There are references to Ceiling Cat, because the characters are hip to meme culture. This AU is ~modern~ after all.

- Their fic is interlaced with slightly relevant song lyrics (disclaimer, they didn’t write the song.)

- They don’t do any of above, because they are New Fandom Savy, but they write or reblog nostalgic posts about these things.

- They had a livejournal.

- They still have a livejournal.

- They ended up on tumblr only after getting into a new fandom, searching livejournal for content and fellow fans, and suddenly coming to the startling realization that livejournal has become a barren wasteland of tumbleweeds and chirping crickets.

- They miss their geocities site.

- They wrote fic for the X-Files while the original nine seasons were still airing.

- Bonus, they wrote fic for the original Star Trek and published it in a zine, before the Internet was a thing. That’s like super mega fandom old.

- They might be less inclined to call themselves “trash”, but they are totally out there, reading all the things.

As of July 4th 2018, the Internet as we know it might be dead for good.

The European Parliament is passing a new Copyright Directive.
Article 13 #CensorshipMachine will impose widespread censorship of all the content we share online. Art, fanfiction, parodies, remixes, mashups, memes, etc.. Anything that you do not hold the rights over will be taken down.

Article 13 would force all online platforms to police and prevent the uploading of copyrighted content, or make people seek the correct licenses to post that content. Internet platforms hosting large amounts of user-uploaded content must monitor user behaviour and filter their contributions to identify and prevent copyright infringement.

Such filters will be mandatory for platforms including YouTube, Facebook, Tumblr, Reddit and Instagram, but also much smaller websites.

(x)

This doesn’t just affect Europe. The content creators you love are going to be in hot water for sharing their art and writing with you online. Any and all content that doesn’t belong to us will be filtered. Even memes are at risk, as the person who took the original photo may want to file complaints against any platform that allows it to be used without permission. But it goes even further than that.

Last Tuesday (19th June 2018) a group of more than 70 people who have played important roles in building the internet and developing it (Tim Berners-Lee, Vincent Cerf, Jimmy Wales, Mitchell Baker…) into what it is today addressed an open letter to the members of the European Parliament:

“As creators ourselves, we share the concern that there should be a fair distribution of revenues from the online use of copyright works, that benefits creators, publishers, and platforms alike.

But Article 13 is not the right way to achieve this. By requiring Internet platforms to perform automatic filtering all of the content that their users upload, Article 13 takes an unprecedented step towards the transformation of the Internet from an open platform for sharing and innovation, into a tool for the automated surveillance and control of its users. […] The damage that this may do to the free and open Internet as we know it is hard to predict, but in our opinions could be substantial.”

Here is the original Article 13. It’s even scarier. / Link 2

Here is how to contact your MEPs.

Here is a full list of everything that will be affected.

Europe is facing a huge problem, and unlike with Net Neutrality, the world doesn’t seem to care.

Quick heads up to other partnered Youtube creators and anyone who follows my content.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/meganhills1/2018/06/04/youtube-anti-lgbt-ads/#701ae1fe4f73

TDLR: It appears that youtube is running anti-LGBT+ videos as ads before LGBT+ content. One of the people doing this claims it was unintentional but it doesn’t make him less of an asshole. Basically they tagged it as LGBT+ because they are old and dumb. The tagging system is suppose to be used for advertisers to target specific types of videos IE you watch gaming content so here is an ad for a PS4. But it can be abused apparently. So now what?

You don’t have to demonotize your entire channel if you want to stop these ads.

Youtube is really shit at giving partners info so I thought I’d help you out with a image. If you want to block specific ads on your content (as in they will not run on your content and you will not make money from hate speech) then log into your adsense account follow these steps.

1. Click “allow & block ads”

2. Click “content host”

3. Click “All my sites”

4. Put the names of any of the associated websites

5. click the block URLs button and you are done in 24 hours the ads will stop appearing on your channel.

In step 4 you might notice that you will need the specific ad urls which Youtube won’t give you so you are gonna have to rely on going and finding them yourself. Remember that it is against youtube adsense policy to specifically load ads on your own videos so you are gonna have to look at other channels (or just use the 3 I blocked in the image).

This is the part where I need to apologize. If you have ever seen that kinda shit before one of my videos I am very sorry. It is not my intent or my aim to make money from hate speech. As far as I can tell I don’t think my channel ran any of these since my content is gaming and art related (so the ads are all lessons on how to learn to draw or up coming games) but I’m taking this precaution on the off chance that I am wrong. If however you do see an ad for this kind of bullshit run on one of my videos please let me know in a DM and I will add it to my list. Assuming Youtube works as intended (which is assuming a lot really) it will not show again.

If you are not a creator and want to help:

1. please link this to creators that you watch so it doesn’t show up on their stuff (this apparently is more important for LGBT+ creators to do for the above given reasons)

2. Let me know if you see these kinds of ads on my videos or anyone else’s so I can black list the ads. A screen shot of the ad itself is super helpful in finding the source without clicking the links. Send screenshots like that via the submission feature here on tumblr.

3. Tell Youtube that you aren’t ok with this kind of behavior directly. Message @teamyoutube or @youtube on twitter and be as calm and professional as you can be while telling them to stop being such dickheads. Youtube generally only reacts to major public outcry or if the advertisers get scared.

A better way to get in contact with YouTube is mass use of their on-website feedback button. That gets directly seen by the people working on the YouTube team, rather than having to go through their social media managers first

Fandoms years ago: your kink is not my kink and I’m personally squicked by some of the things in your fanfics so I’m not gonna read them, but I’m gonna be civil to you anyway

Fandoms now: I’ve read your 18+ fic even if I’m a minor and I ignored all your tags and trigger warnings. The fault is still yours. I don’t know you personally but your kinks are Bad so you are also Bad. Kill yourself and pee your pants.

VACCINATE YOUR FUCKING KIDS

i know this isn’t my first time reblogging this post to this blog, and it probably won’t be the last. Stay educated.

Also, immunocompromised members of society (including a number of my family members and friends) don’t deserve to have their lives threatened because of antivaxxers and their “right” to believe lies.

Vaccinating yourself and your kids isn’t just a personal decision - it’s a decision that affects your entire community. I have friends whose family members survived cancer only to die from the flu because someone didn’t get vaccinated and exposed the survivors’ compromised immune systems to the virus. I had a friend in high school who nearly died because an unvaccinated family got measles during a trip abroad and brought it back to infect a ton of unvaccinated people at my school. Believing the lies and conspiracy theories about vaccines literally gets people killed. It’s completely unethical to gamble with your children’s lives and the lives of those around you because of some completely debunked, ableist pseudoscience.

I’d just like to add, see how they behave when they’re angry/frustrated/exhausted, and if you see something that concerns you, wait until they’re calm, and then talk to them about it.

My husband used to yell when he got frustrated, but after I explained to him that I found it upsetting, he stopped yelling and started consciously working on asking for help before he got to that level of frustration.

When I’m upset over something, or just in a bad mood, I tend to withdraw. My husband explained to me that it makes him feel like I’m mad at him, so now when I need some space, I’ll tell him what I’m upset about, or that I’m in a bad mood for no particular reason, and I need to be alone for a little while.

See your friends and partners at their worst, but don’t assume that their worst is immutable. If someone loves and cares about you, they’ll try to accommodate you to the best of their ability.

Every big hiccup between me paint and noct have only made things easier in the long run.
