Do you like science?

@tyrannusumbrarex brought this to my attention once and the more Klei games I play the more I want this to happen BUT I have no clue if people want it in the first place. So, uh, like, reblog, whatnot if you’d like to join a server like this. I don’t think it would offer anything new aside from the Klei fandom could unite as one and have fun with crossovers… maybe it’s worth a shot? What do you think?

So first of all, now that it has been approved I’m seeing a lot of confusion about what the proposal actually does. You can read all of it here, but here’s a short summary of the proposal:

- The proposal was first published around two years ago. The two most problematic things about it are Article 11 and Article 13, Article 11 wanting to prevent people from using snippets of text from news articles, possibly also affecting links that contain the headline of the article; Article 13 is about using upload filters on websites with lots of user uploads to prevent copyrighted material from being posted online. This would not only affect screenshots and gifs, but also memes, music used in remixes and similar content. That’s right, if this law passes we won’t be able to post memes and similar content online anymore. (Note: Don’t worry about your fanart and fanfiction. Those won’t be taken down.) It’s not clear what kinds of websites will have to make use of those filters yet; while some sources state it will only affect big platforms like Youtube, Facebook, Flickr etc. others say it could also affect start-ups and forums who aren’t able to pay for those filters and might have to close down. (Please note that I’m no expert, so if you have anything to add/correct about my summary, feel free to do so.) - Today, on June 20th, a parliamentary committee approved of the proposal. However, it’s not over yet. The Internet won’t suddenly “die” today.  There are a few more steps to be made before this passes as an actual law. Presumably on 3rd-5th July, there’ll be a Parliament Negotiating Mandate Vote. Finally, there’ll be a final Parliamentary Vote in December. The proposal has to pass both of those votes before becoming an actual law.

Long story short: Keep contacting your MEPs. Just because the proposal has been approved, you shouldn’t stop fighting against this shit being passed. It’s not over yet. Here are some useful links: https://saveyourinternet.eu - Call and tweet your MEPs or write them (pre-written) emails https://act.openmedia.org/savethelink-call - Call your MEPs https://www.change.org/p/european-parliament-stop-the-censorship-machinery-save-the-internet  - Sign this petition against upload filters Lastly: No, this is not alt-right propaganda. I know many of you were confused when this issue first blew up, as there were barely any reliable sources and most articles about it seemed to come from alt-right websites who used the issue to bash the EU. I fell for the rumor about the issue being faked too and was surprised to read in my local newspaper a few days ago that it is an actual issue, and now I just regret to not have done anything before the proposal passed. But as I said: It’s not over yet. We can still fight against this.

❝ Just one question– we do get paid, right? ❞

The name is Lex Splorer. So how do a – technically speaking – criminal end up in the Global Action Team, fighting alongside those badass guys? Easy, I am one! Seriously, have you seen me? I’m more than just the >dashing look< and >irresistible style<, trust me when I say, partner, this guy has some sick skill-level going on!

-open blogs you follow and see if there is a rules page -read the rules page (-ask for a link if you’re on phone and don’t have access to it) -if someone is mutual exclusive, selective, associated or private, please respect that -and if you are unsure about something, shoot an ask* -accept a no as an answer. it happens sometimes.

*for example, if you don’t know what ‘mutual’ or ‘associated’ means and you see it on a blog.

we are here to roleplay, to have fun, but as everything in life, there are rules which we appreciate if you followed. we don’t ask for much, we don’t have very high expectations and it’s a turn-off when despite what little we ask for it’s not given to us.

one last thing:

-wanna rp? style’d asks again, we are roleplay blogs. again, we are here to roleplay. that’s why we made our blogs. of course we want to roleplay. and this is not a way to get us interested. we might not want to be another ‘wanna rp thread’ which dies after a few short replies because there is no plot, or at least an overall idea where the thread goes. you need to be open and a partner to plotting to define a general direction. even if you lack ideas, you can still be a partner. we can guide you and inspire you but we cannot do everything.

My family and I are being evicted from our house and we have to leave in 2 months. Since I’m graduating next month and the costs are extremely expensive, I can’t worry enough about having the money leftover to find a new home. I can’t get a job until june, so for now I’m opening up commissions to at least get something. 

Donations and commissions are appreciated!! Please message me if you have any questions, and please boost !<3
