trying to do more âintimateâ scenes  asdfgkhajl. but. also just. perusing the idea that what if at the beginning she tried to be very⌠tempting lol
My technique for making runes has improved a bit since I last made them (with glass fishbowl marbles and sharpies about ten years ago, lol).
These are made from translucent Sculpey with ground clove, thyme, peppermint, and gold microbead inclusions for a faux-stone look.
Photos are as follows: before baking, after baking with one coat of gold paint, and then finally a second coat of gold paint and gloss sealant.
Overall Iâm quite pleased with them.
đ¨ The FCC plans to kill net neutrality on December 14 đ¨
Itâs real simple: ISP lobbyists are pushing the FCC to kill net neutrality so phone and cable companies can block apps, slow down websites, and charge fees to control what you see and do online.
Our only chance is congressional pressure and legislative action. But we need grassroots support. Tell your representatives that you support âTitle 2â rules and ask for their help protecting a free and open internet.
Go to Battle For The Net to be connected to your congresspeople.Â
The Internet allowed me to have a life. It allowed me to create a space to help people like you. It allowed me access to jobs and helped create a business. It allowed me to have a career, an audience, and money in my pocket. It allowed me to not be homeless.Â
Iâm not saying this to brag. Iâm saying this because people can use the Internet to carve out their own choices in life. To listen to other people and find role models and to be themselves.
And now, it may be harder and more expensive if the major ISPs have their way.
Will the above graphic be in your future? Maybe or maybe not. But you canât be sure now, can you?
I posted a lot about Net Neutrality such as:

What the ISPs owns:Â https://tmblr.co/ZiTBMv2StfLbA
I know thereâs a lot of things I can be talking about, but without Net Neutrality, it may be harder to talk to you about them.Â
So, I beg you, to read up on Net Neutrality today, not just via my posts, but also via other people. Donât use just Tumblr. Get on other social media sites and talk to people. Engage them to go to BATTLEFORTHENET.com to tell the FCC to STOP the FCC from voting on Dec 14th.
If youâre not going to do it to help people such as myself, you can do it because youâre cheap and you donât want that damn sign popping up.

Without enforceable Net Neutrality principles telecom companies could put a tollbooth on the Internet charging both websites and Internet users special fees to avoid slowdowns, writes Steve Anderson.

Here are four ways Canadians could be impacted:
1.Your favorite U.S. web services could be slowed or disappear entirely
To be clear, if Trump and Pai succeed in their Internet tollbooth plan, some of your favorite online services could be slowed to a crawl or blocked. As the saying goes, even if you donât live in the U.S., many of your favorites web services do.
So if Reddit, Wikipedia, Etsy or any other online service canât afford to pay a new special fee to stay out of the Internet slow lane, they could fade away for everyone since the US is such an important market.
2. Canadian-based services and traffic stifled
Web services from Canada and elsewhere will likely face the same âprioritizationâ fees or worse if they want to reach US users. So Canadian-based Hootsuite, Shopify, New/Mode and Europe-based Prezi, and SoundCloud, could be forced to pay fees or be slowed down for U.S. users. Thereâs no guarantee that U.S. Telecoms will give them a fair deal, especially in the Trump-era.
Then thereâs also the fact that as Internet law expert Professor Michael Geist has noted, âA lot of Canadian internet traffic goes through the US, and weâre not totally sure whether that will be affectedâ.
3. Online services could get more expensive
Even if the telecoms donât hit us with new fees directly, the new costs born on services like Netflix are sure to be passed along to Internet users one way or another. As Executive Director of OpenMedia Laura Tribe put it to the CBC: âExtra costs just to get their content streaming in the U.S. is going to probably be passed along to both American and Canadian consumers in the form of higher subscription fees.â
If that sounds like a transfer of wealth from Internet users to giant telecom conglomerates, thatâs because thatâs exactly what this is.
4. The contagion could spread to the Canadian Internet environment
An Internet tollbooth in the U.S. could also have a domino effect in countries around the world. Since the U.S. is so dominant in the global economy thereâs likely to be a renewed push by big telecoms everywhere to establish their own version of top down control of the Internet in other countries.
Canadaâs arrogant big telecoms will for sure push for more powers to regulate our use of the Internet here in Canada. Big Telecom, as the group of 4 Canadian conglomerates is often called, has consistently tried to undermine Net Neutrality since we won it back in 2009. OpenMedia and others successfully pushed forward when they came back at us, but that will be much more challenging if the U.S. guts Net Neutrality.
In short, if this Internet tollbooth is implemented unchallenged, weâre looking at a much more centralized, costly and restricted internet.
