So there has been a bit of “what if humans were the weird ones?” going around tumblr at the moment and Earth Day got me thinking. Earth is a wonky place, the axis tilts, the orbit wobbles, and the ground spews molten rock for goodness sakes. What if what makes humans weird is just our capacity to survive? What if all the other life bearing planets are these mild, Mediterranean climates with no seasons, no tectonic plates, and no intense weather? 

Human: “Honestly we can tolerate anywhere from -40 to 50 Celcius, but we prefer the 0 to 30 range.”

Alien: “……. I’m sorry, did you just list temperatures below freezing?”

Human: “Yeah, but most of us prefer to throw on scarves or jackets at those temperatures it can be a bit nippy.” 

Other human: “Nah mate, I knew this guy in college who refused to wear anything past his knees and elbows until it was -20 at least.”

Human: “Heh. Yeah everybody knows someone like that.”

Alien: “……. And did you also say 50 Celcius? As in, half way to boiling?”

Human: “Eugh. Yes. It sucks, we sweat everywhere, and god help you if you touch a seatbelt buckle, but yes.” 

“Yup, with blizzards you cant see through every other day just about.”

“Amazing! when did you manage to send drones that could survive such temperatures?”

“… well, actually…”

“… what?”

“…we kinda……. sent……….. people…..”

“…”

“…”

“…what?”

“we sent-”

“no yeah I heard you I just- what? You sent… HUMANS… to a place one hundred degrees below freezing?”

“y-yeah”

“and they didn’t… die?”

“Well the first few did”

“PEOPLE DIED OF THE COLD AND YOUR SOLUTION WAS TO SEND MORE PEOPLE?”

aka The History of Russia

aka Arctic Exploration

1. Learning to recognize all forms of animal tracks in the wild so you can avoid bears and moose and search out rabbits and other small animals to eat.

2. Extensive swimming and climbing on glacial pieces with competitions to see who could last the longest, followed by a group sit in the sauna so we wouldn’t get hypothermia (no, not kidding, I really did this many times as a kid!)

3. How to navigate using the stars to get back to civilization.

4. How to select the right type of moss from the trees to start a fire with damp wood (because, y’know, you’re in a field of snow. Nothing is dry.)

It only takes one try before the reality of the situation sets in: human definitions of ‘taming’ and ‘habitable’ are woefully incomplete.

“Why did you not eliminate the venomous plant life?” Grahssk’ti moans, clutching one limb.

“Those?” The human laughs. “Why bother? They’re not that bad. And they eat the mosquitoes.”

Grahssk’ti shudders. The ‘mosquitoes’ are… not to be mentioned. Just one swarm of them caused a landing shuttle to crash three planetary daylights ago.

“And the acid storms? Why did you not warn us of them?”

“I mean, they’re annoying,” the human says, shrugging, “but we figured the cool sunsets made up for it.”

Grahssk’ti flails helplessly. “What about the ten-meter tall Fanged Death Bringers? They can eliminate an entire settlement in under an hour!”

Without fail, a decent number make it a point to settle there because “Fuck You That’s Why.” It doesn’t matter how uneconomical it is, how difficult the conditions are, how utterly ridiculous it may seem, there will be at least one human who will attempt to do it only because someone else regardless of species says it is improbable or WORSE impossible.

ROLL YOUR CLASS

I got Beast Rider…

[a bunch of hands fly up]

“you cannot ride it, it is too small”

As many have already said, do not endorse their campaign! It is done by some pro-Brexit right-wing extremist scums!

The directive they were talking about in the video is the Directive on “Copyright in the digital single market” (text of the law here in English, in French).

Though, you can trust Julia Reda’s endorsing campaign against Article 11 and 13 of the directive (done by the NGO OpenMedia which is aligned in their stances with Pirate Parties philosophy). She is a German Pirate Party MEP at the EU Parliament Legal Affairs committee. Here she says why she is against it and sums up the lastest situation (dated 25 May 2018). 

As you can read on her page, ALL OF THE EU LEFTIST PARTIES ARE ABSOLUTELY AGAINST ARTICLES 11 AND 13.

(according to her table of course, but she is a Pirate+Green MEP therefore left-aligned so i dont see why she’d be lying on that point)

Thus the situation is not as simple as saying “the right wing extremists/EU-skeptics endorse this so we must dismiss this and say it’s fake”. Actually still according to Julia Reda’s last update, the EU right-wing extremists group are in favour of these articles!

The committee she is in is the responsible body on this directive and is going to vote on the final version of it (here is the draft of that last version taking into account last amendments on Article 13, found on Julia Reda’s website) on June 20 or 21 during their next meeting.

THE DATE WAS NOT FAKE AS I HAVE SEEN IT WRITTEN IN RESPONSE TO THE VIRAL POST YOU GUYS.

HERE IS THE PROOF:

EU parliament dedicates each of their discussed laws a summary page on their website with all the actions done surrounding them (meetings, decisions, etc), here is the one for that law: http://www.europarl.europa.eu/oeil/popups/ficheprocedure.do?reference=2016/0280(COD)&l=en

The page looks like this:

As you can see, that law is indeed STILL waiting for committee decision! And the committee responsible for that decision at EU Parliament is the “Legal Affairs” committee called “JURI”. If you click on their mention you get to the committee main page and what do you see? DING DING!

THE 20/21 JUNE 2018 DATE IS LEGIT

I REPEAT

IT IS LEGIT

You also can have access to their list of members here: http://www.europarl.europa.eu/committees/en/juri/members.html?action=1

That’s how I found out Julia Reda was part of that committee, as proved on page 2 of their list of members:

So if you want to trust anyone about discussions around this directive, she is a legit source. She is in the know, and she is one of the actors of the making of that law. She also was assigned first by the EU Parliament back as early as 2015 to do a report about the status of online copyrights and to provide suggestions for a new law about this issue. She centered most of her solutions for that law around more flexibility and more exceptions rights for internet users, for them to be protected by EU law when they want to parody copyrighted material, etc. Her report was rejected by France at the time. (Source in French but i think you can find stuff in English too about it if you google her)
