If you’re European, in a couple of weeks you will be denied any and all access to fandom contents on Tumblr and everywhere else on the internet. Here’s why.
On June, 20th the JURI of European Parliament approved of the articles 11 and 13 of the new Copyright Law. These articles are also known as the “Link Tax” and the “Censorship Machines” articles.
Articles 13 in particular forces every internet platform to filter all the contents we upload online, ending once and for all the fandom culture. Which means you won’t be able to upload any type of fandom works like fan arts, fan fictions, gif sets from your favourite films and series, edits, because it’s all copyrighted material. And you won’t also be able to share, enjoy or download other’s contents, because the use of links will be completely restricted.
But not everything’s lost yet. There’s another round of voting scheduled for the early days of July.
What you can do now to save our internet, is to share these informations with all of your family members and friends, and to ask to your MEP (the members of the European Parliament from your country) to vote NO at the next round, to vote against articles 11 and 13.
Here you can find more news and all the details to contact your MEP:

Also, sign and share this petition:

We have just a couple of weeks to stop this complete madness, don’t let them dictating the way we enjoy our internet.
#SaveYourInternet now!
It’s funny how y'all will reblog any and all US things but when whole Europe might lose access to internet then everything is quiet.
Are you fucking serious? Is this really happening? I’m European and I didn’t know a single thing about this

I’ve heard from my MEP and they’re working on it.
My fortune cookie wants me to write fanfic
This is the fanfic fortune. It shall inspire you to fanfic.
Reblog to cure writer’s block
I’ll gotta do a lot of swimming then......
When you’re writing and you can clearly see in your mind the exact expression a character is wearing or hear the exact nonverbal sound they are making, but completely fail at coming up with a way to explain it.
When ya girl bisexual
Alright this is my definite favorite version of this, ever.
Full offense but y'all need to stop fetishizing lgbt ppl. Lesbians arent straight men’s entertainment and sexual fantasies. Gay men aren’t your “YAOI GAYBIES xD” and you aren’t “SINNING SO MUCH RIGHT NOW” Bi people aren’t here so you can have a threesome. Trans men aren’t “uwu soft boys so pure” and trans women aren’t “big muscle wife could kill me”.
You aren’t less homophobic for fetishizing gay ships. You aren’t less transphobic for fetishizing trans people.
Stop.
“Those poor boys”
“She deserves to be punished too.”
“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”
“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”
“She put herself in harm’s way”
“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”
“She ruined their lives.”
“Well she didn’t exactly say ‘no’..”
“Yea, but did you see what she was wearing?”
“Boys will be boys!”
“She should know better than to drink at a party…”
Cannot not reblog.
“She should have tried to enjoy–”
“She’s just saying something now for atten-“
Shipping Johnlock - we didn’t start it, they did.
Mycroft ships Johnlock.
“Should we expect a happy announcement by the end of the week?”
Mrs Hudson DEFINITELY ships Johnlock.
“There’s another bedroom upstairs, if you’ll be needing two bedrooms.”
Angelo ships it insistently.
“I’ll get a candle for the table, it’s more romantic.”
Moriarty ships it resentfully.
“I will burn the heart out of you.”
Irene Adler ships it amusedly.
“Someone loves you. If I had to slap that face, I’d avoid your nose and teeth too.”
Jeanette ships it frustratedly.
“You’re a wonderful boyfriend! And Sherlock Holmes is a very lucky man.”
Ella ships it sneakily.
“Everything you wanted to say to him, but never did, say it now.”
John ships it, deep deep down.
“…And no one will ever convince me, that you told me a lie.”
Sherlock ships it desperately.
“You. It’s always you, John Watson. You keep me right.”
In the end, didn’t even Mary ship it?
“I know what you could become…the Baker Street boys, Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson.”

There’s also a little story going on in this gif. They (Ciel and Sebastian) are basically investigating and end up in a dark hallway and Sebastian lights up a match, only for it to get blown out a few seconds later.

[No, this is not a photograph - not that it needs a disclaimer…]
Probably the most insufferable, anal-retentive, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome-inducing study in hyperrealism that I’ve ever attempted. Ow.
I was digging through the vast pile of paintings that I’d started but never finished the previous year and lining them up for further work. This was the one that was closest to completion, so it got worked on first. I’d actually gotten all of the face and hair done last year, but then work came to a grinding halt because I really didn’t fancy painting all that fabric fibre by fibre. (Yes, I actually do that. No, it’s not a recent development in my progressing insanity; I’ve actually been doing that since ‘09). Didn’t care for the original background from the reference picture, so I put London as a backdrop instead.
[No outside textures used, because I’m an obsessive little nut. Work mostly done with a bog-standard hard round brush, but the fabric was done with the help of a scribbly custom brush I made to make life a little easier.]
Is there any point in hyperrealism? I’ll let the experts debate on that, but it *is* good exercise in learning details (I can now paint curls thanks to this goddamn thing) - and it’s the best method of meditation that I know of. And eh, whether or not it counts as art, it’s an illusion of reality - and if I can make the viewer wonder, if only for a moment, whether it’s a photo or a painting, hey, I consider my work done. LOL.
Progress:

Well I looked twice and I do digital art, so. Applause!
God I’d love to see a high res version so I can try and see how some of this was done and learn something. I’d like to have a go at photorealism for the experience and I always wonder about the resolution of the reference image required to have an effective shot at it. Most of my pics use a range of pretty poor quality refs because I need to capture a particular angle or expression.
Sherlock’s version of talk to the hand
“wouldn’t you rather earn something than have it just handed to you?”
Yeah when it comes to actual awards and fancy goods, but when it comes to basic needs, basic human decency, and accomodations, those things should always be handed to people. No one should have to “earn” those things.Value people as people, not base it on how much they produce.
yeah but that creates a severe dependency that could be exploited easily, and creates a slippery slope @musical-clarity
Actually studies show that people who live in places with universal income (who are given money with no strings attached just for being citizens) do far better work than those who don’t and are more enthusiastic to do work.
This is because they still want nice things and will work for those but the part of their energy that was devoted to worrying about if they have enough money to pay the rent and bills this month is now freed up to do other things.
Some people will always be lazy and take advantage of the system, but they are always a tiny percentage and it seems ridiculous to me to punish the majority and severly hamstring their abilities just because a handful of people will simply live of basic income rather than work.
It’s been tested a couple times. In Canada, in some European countries, and the results are always the same. There are two groups of people who show a statistically significant (Greater than one half of one percent, or 1 in 200) increase in Not Working and living off the guaranteed income. Parents of Children under school age, and full time students. Among ALL other groups, employment actually INCREASED. Why? Because guaranteed minimum income means that homeless people can get at least a basic low end apartment. It’s hard if not impossible to get an above board job without a permanent fixed address. Also more people were able to have and maintain a BANK ACCOUNT. It is often hard to get a decent job without an account that can accept Direct Deposit for paychecks. Also, lost work time due to illness and injury decreased across the board. It turns out if people are getting a decent amount of money each month they can A> afford to eat better, and B> obtain decent medical attention both preventative and emergency. Crazy right? So why hasn’t it caught on? Because it doesn’t directly benefit the people in power, and it increases THEIR PERSONAL taxes, their CORPORATE TAXES, and thus decreases their PERSONAL INCOME. So, because Jeff Bezos and Alan Greenspan might fall from making 100 billion dollars a year to making 99.8 billion dollars a year, it’s a hard NO and we can all fucking die.. The End.
