my blog

I'm a queer Lakota woman-ish person with Endometriosis, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, pelvic floor issues, and a bad case of general clumsiness. I’m also 24 and in my first year of a Masters program in the Bay Area. If you have any questions or want to talk about anything, feel free to shoot me an ask :] I know that chronic illness can be a tough, lonely struggle but we’re not alone. They/them, she/her

I’ll be honest one of my favorite headcanons is that the pokedex is not scientifically accurate whatsoever but rather the result of sending ten year olds out into the world to gather your research for you

POV Fantasy slice of life book when?

[katzedecimal]

“Now I am old. The fur around my muzzle is grey and my joints ache when we walk together. Yet she remains unchanged, her hair still glossy, her skin still fresh, her step still sprightly. Time doesn’t touch her and yet I love her still.”

[popetato]

“For generations, he has guarded over my family. Since the days of my great-great-great-great-great-grandfather he has kept us safe. For so long we thought him immortal. But now I see differently, for just as my fur grows gray and my joints grow stiff, so too do his. He did not take in my children, but gave them away to his. I will be the last that he cares for. My only hope is that I am able to last until his final moments. The death of one of his kind is so rare. The ending of a life so long is such a tragedy. He has seen so much, he knows so much. I know he takes comfort in my presence. I only wish that I will be able to give him this comfort until the end.”

Dorothy: What are we learning about today, Ms. Frizzle?

Ms. Frizzle: We're learning about gender and orientation, as well as transgender issues!

Arnold: Why does your dress say "down with cis?"

Ms. Frizzle: Why don't we get on the bus and find out!

Reminder: Your friends really do love you. No they dont secretly hate you. No they dont just put up with you and think you’re annoying. Your friends truly love you and care about you as much as you do.

I kind of just sat here staring at this not knowing how to reply for a minute bc just saying ‘thank you so much’ doesn’t really express fully how much I appreciate that you would tag me in this. It’s so sweet of you <33 thank you, really.

I saw this post on my dash (with commentary, dw) and there was one thing that I didn’t see addressed in the comment chain that I really feel needs to be

Once an artist creates a work, they own the copyright

None of this “I paid for the art. It is mine.” bullshit, unless the artist actually sells you the copyright (something which has to be stated and never assumed, and something you would have to pay extra for) you can not claim ownership over the piece, even if you paid for it.

And yes, this means you can not alter the work in any way, you can not use it for banners/advertisements/etc., you can not print it, you can not sell copies unless agreed upon with the artist

and artists are also protected under moral rights

meaning that the artist has the right of attribution (the right to be identified and named as the creator of their work), the right against false attribution, and the right of integrity. (Source)

so fuck off with your “I paid for the art. It is mine.” crap, it doesn’t stick legally

[ingthing]

I actually attended an extremely useful talk at my (design) school held by a professor who’s also a copyright lawyer, and there are a couple more things you should know.

TO EXPAND ON THIS:

Copyright actually is control over the following:

Reproduction 

Distribution 

Derivative Work 

Performance 

Public Display

You do not have to give/sell the entire copyright to your work. 

You can, for example, license someone to publicly display the work. That would permit them to exclusively use the content with limitations. You can also non-exclusively license others to use your content, which would be a broader “You can do X with my work” statement.

Transfer of copyright ownership has to be in writing. 

This does not mean “I asked you to draw X for me and I paid for it so I claim ownership of everything this image is and all rights to it.” It means “the artist explicitly wrote that they’re transferring copyright ownership to me.”

And in case you were wondering when, exactly, copyright attaches, copyright attaches the moment the expression of the idea is fixed in a tangible form. That means I could draw a fast scribble on a piece of paper and I’d own copyrights to it. This also applies to digital mediums.

Of course, it’s best to register copyrights through (if you’re in the US) the US Copyright Office, but copyright applies even without registration.

EXCEPTIONS…

…to copyright laws include employer-employee relationships and “work for hire” agreements, but only when signed before the work is created. 

BEFORE you do any work for a client, definitely create a contract in which you claim that “[You] reserve the right to reproduce the work for promotional and online portfolio purposes” if you want to be able to use the work as promotion for yourself. Here’s a wikihow on how to create a freelance contract.

Copyright laws are in place to protect creators.

Don’t fall for tricks!

There should really be a ‘nevermind’ option on Netflix. Sometimes I start a movie or a series and ten minutes or an episode in, I decide I don’t like it. I don’t want to see it in my ‘continue watching’ category, and I certainly don’t want to see ‘because you watched this thing’ either. I made a mistake. Please stop reminding me.
