You should share this for people in DC and close to you!!

Psstt

It’s crazy how this one person, in a study of only twelve children, gained so much traction in the world. He put this lie out there—and it was a lie, not just interpreting data incorrectly—and now it doesn’t even matter that he’s been proven totally false. Years of effort to reestablish the truth can’t undo the lie once it’s out there in the world. Hundreds of thousands of people believe that lie, and actual children are getting sick and dying because of it.

EDITS TO CLEAR THINGS UP:

- This is NOT for Old Friends Senior Dog Sanctuary, the one that you see a bunch of popular posts for! This is for Forever Dream Senior Dog Sanctuary, a separate sanctuary located in North Carolina.

- If you are concerned about the legitimacy of this post or the sanctuary, you can see the facebook page, which has been verified by facebook as a legitimate page, and their post that links to the youcaring donation site. You can also check out this tumblr post to find more evidence of the legitimacy of the Sanctuary.

PLEASE HELP!!!

Forever Dream Senior Dog Sanctuary, located in Tryon, NC, is at risk.

Last week a trusted volunteer, and close friend of the sanctuary owner for 30 years, shocked our entire community by stealing all of the sanctuary’s funds and disappearing.

Police reports have been filed, investigations are underway, but while all of that is going on, the sanctuary still has no funds. The local community is already helping out by donating what food and supplies they can, but tens of thousands of dollars worth of donations were stolen. That money goes towards keeping the sanctuary running.

Please, please help. Verna Wilkins, the sanctuary owner, is my friend, and I have had the privilege of working up close with the seniors and the sanctuary, and seeing the amazing work she does. The sanctuary is such a wonderful place. It not only provides forever homes and medical care to undesirable senior dogs, but Verna also rehabilitates feral seniors that were abandoned - something that happens all too often in this area.

Here is the link to the youcaring fundraiser.

Or, if you want, you can donate directly on the website here.

Here is the facebook post that links to the youcaring fundraiser from the verified facebook page of the sanctuary.

The sanctuary is a 501©(3), IRS recognized, non-profit organization, so all of your donations are tax deductible!

Please for the love of all that is holy DO NOT USE THIS TO PERSONALIZE YOUR TUMBLR. It’s covered in adware and every single time I click onto someone’s tumblr who has it I have to run my spybot and then it catches a bunch of stuff and in one case one of these addresses downloaded an adware program onto my computer that prevented me from hitting back on my browser and had loud popup ads now and then and annoying blue hyperlinks everywhere. It took several hours of my time to remove the darn thing from my computer completely.

“But I can have a cool personalized name with .co .vu!” Yeah, you know why? Because most people don’t use it so names aren’t taken. Why?

Because it’s covered in adware and spyware.

So, you know how how “co.[country abbreviation]” is commonly used to signify that a site is from some country? For example, “amazon.co.jp” is the Japanese version of Amazon dot com.

The people selling “co.vu” sites want you to think that that’s what’s going on–that you’re getting nice good web addresses from Vanuatu.

But what’s actually happening is that they publish your sites as a subdomain of a site called “co” that is in Vanuatu.

In other words:

In the url “http://amielleon.tumblr.com”, “amielleon” is the subdomain, “tumblr” is the actual site, and “com” tells me that it’s a commercial site and probably from America.

In the url “http://mytrashyotp.co.vu”, “mytrashyotp” is the subdomain, “co” is the actual site, and “vu” indicates it’s from Vanuatu. But they WANT you to think that “mytrashyotp” is the site, and “co.vu” indicates that it’s a commercial site from Vanuatu.

What are they getting out of this? The ability to throw shit on top of your blog (like adware) and also leech off your content for search engine rankings.

These are pics of myself, reblogged by a porn blog, with my caption removed, a sexually illicit caption added, and a questionable short link that I do not dare to follow.

The use of my image as above is not something I have consented to. Nor is it something I will ever consent to.

I am not a camgirl. I do not want to fool around with anyone. And I do not wish to communicate with anyone in any sexual way.

There is one other instance to date of a porn blog reblogging my photos in this way, however, I could not find the permalink on their blog. The below screenshot was provided by my friend who first noticed these porn blogs sharing my photos.

Whilst searching through the porn blogs for my own images, I also found images of abuse victims and self-harmers to name but a few groups of people who I am sure did not upload their photos to Tumblr for pornographic purposes. I also, because these blogs tend to be ran by bots, happened across some random photo sets that were neither here nor there. But one that most sticks out, is an image set of a young Asian girl that my mom advised me not to post evidence of.

There is no option to report these posts or these blogs, however, blogs like this can prove to be very harmful. I can only imagine what the girl above or the victims and survivors would think if they realised how their images were being used. And what happens in the future if my baby niece or my boss or any significant other happens across these reblogs and mistakes them as real?

This is something that makes me incredibly uncomfortable and yet it is also something that will likely never be resolved. Nevertheless, I felt a need to make this post. Please share it. Please tell the Tumblr Staff that it’s about time they finally took action. Please….

Here’s what I did.

Hover over the username until you get the little pop up.

(Scratched out porn gifs, which is the red)

Go to report and click that.

Click “This violates Tumblr’s Community Guidelines”. Tumblr will also automatically block them when you select this.

Hit continue.

If they have deleted your captions, like they did on my cosplay photos or like OP, click “Misuse of your identity or work”.

Then go to the bottom and there is:

“Confusion or impersonation”.

It will ask you if it’s you, your brand/organization/company, or someone else. If it’s your photos, click you.

Then you get this screen.

My email is blocked out in red here.

What I did was past the url of the posts they reblogged from me and put it in the explain box, but it could also be put in the url space, and basically explained to Tumblr what they did.

The intent of anti-trans “bathroom bills” is not to make trans women use men’s rooms, or to make trans men use women’s rooms.  No one really wants that.  No one is even trying to pretend that things would be okay if we used the “correct” bathrooms but still dressed and acted like ourselves.

The intent of these bills is to drive trans people out of the public space entirely.

On March 4th in the capital of the US, there will be a gathering and march for Trump supporters. Just as Trump’s fascist agenda has emboldened white supremacists and misogynists everywhere, this march is sure to attract the worst of the country’s authoritarian shitheads.

We are calling on antifascists, anarchists, and anti-authoritarians everywhere to resist what is sure to be an open display of racism and misogyny. While some argue that confronting fascists in the streets will only draw attention to them, we know better than to remain complicit. Fascists don’t deserve a single outlet or forum to promote their disgusting ideology. Events like these empower and embolden these scum to further organize.

In Berkeley, the events are specifically being organized by members of the Alt-Right, connected to groups like the ‘Proud Boys.’

Along with the March in DC, a number of local “March 4 Trump” events have been announced throughout the country. A list of local US marches is available here. A list of Canadian events are here.These events are being organized in an attempt to make it appear that Trump has widespread public support despite massive anger building against him, and seeks to use his supporters as an auxiliary army against rising social forces that are physically confronting Trump and his policies. Trump and his administration represents a disgusting pro-corporate and pro-billionaire agenda that seeks to push neoliberalism to its authoritarian conclusion while destroying the environment, privatizing everything, attacking immigrants, Muslims, the trans and queer community, and the poor and working-class as a whole.Let’s not let these marches go unopposed.March 4 Trump Events

About 6 or 7 months ago, my neighbor got a drone. I don’t mind people having hobbies, but for some reason he insisted on flying like the biggest jerk possible. He would hover in front of other houses and windows, try to “race” cars going down the road, and worst of all he had a habit of flying his drone in my fenced back yard buzzing over my dog, diving low just over my dogs head before circling around to do it again. My dog isn’t small, he’s about 70lbs and a Malamute, but the drone terrified him, and I was worried what would happen if it hit him.

I asked my neighbor several times to please not fly in my yard and explained that it was scaring my dog, he basically told me to get lost and laughed in my face. When it still continued, I called the police. Unfortunately there wasn’t much they could do other than ask him to please not fly over my house/property.

Finally, in late December it happened - my dog got tired of his shit and managed to catch the drone right as it was diving towards him. He shredded the drone, the thing was just a jumbled mess of wires and plastic.

Neighbor was pissed. He stormed over to my house swearing and threatening me, which I ignored. A week later, I got a summons to small claims court - he wanted $900 for the cost of his drone and an additional $300 for supposedly denying him access to his property (the drone sat in my yard for a couple hours before it was retrieved). F*ck that. He could have killed my dog. I don’t have kids or a girlfriend, I just have my dog who is my best friend for the past 7 years. That dog has moved with me three times, was there when I graduated college, saw me buy my first house and my first new car. I love my dog.

Went to LegalAdvice, got some great help from them. Turns out, him suing me was the best thing to ever happen. When we got to small claims court, the judge basically laughed away his claims that I had intentionally trained my dog to attack his drone. But little did he know I was prepared. I had dozens of photos of my yard showing it was impossible for him to “accidentally” fly that low to my dog, videos of him harassing my dog in the past, and I had saved all my medical bills from taking my dog to the vet. $700 for an xray? Check. Another $250 to sedate him during? Why not, don’t want him being uncomfortable. Full dental exam with tooth cleaning/repair? $400. Then there was the cost of anti-anxiety meds and a secondary check up, wet food for a week in case his teeth were hurt, and extra just for good measure. In the end, the a-hole ended up owing me almost $2,000, and now is being investigated by the FAA for not having a registered drone and violating several FAA regulations concerning drone flight, too near an airport, too close to other people, out of sight of operator and waaay above the maximum altitude.
