At last! The custom mini tokens have been revealed over on @commander-cube’s blog. AND there were extras printed, so you can buy some of these. XD Also also, because of the deal we made, I get a little as well from each sale, so no worries on plunking down some cash X3

Super excite about this. I’ve been sitting on these images for a few weeks. It feels good to finally fully post this. X3

New poll data suggests that the majority of Canadians would be willing to work longer hours in order to work a four-day week.

A recent study conducted by Angus Reid determined that 68 per cent of Canadians across all age groups would prefer to work four 10-hour shifts a week than five eight-hour shifts.

My latest project: going through my collection, picking out vanilla creatures and simple sorceries to turn into ultra low complexity mini-decks. Hopefully I can donate them to shelters (idea from Alex Steacy of Loading Ready Run), since they’re a good toy for older kids.

There is a rally against Family Separation and child immigrant detention being held on July 1st, 2018 in Toronto (Ontario), Canada.

Info:

Canada has a holding (read: detention centre) in Etobicoke, Toronto. “Since 2011, Canada has housed more than two hundred Canadian children in detention in Toronto’s Immigration Holding Centre, alongside hundreds of formally detained non-Canadian children, according to the report Invisible Citizens: Canadian Children in Immigration Detention (PDF) from the University of Toronto’s International Human Rights Program (IHRP). The report recommends that Canada urgently implement alternatives to the detention of children rather than confining them in immigration detention facilities or separating them from their detained parents.” Let’s meet at the Centre to demand an end to detention and urge the Canadian gov’t to end the Safe Third Country Agreement. No one is ilegal on stolen land—let’s remind them. Indigenous families continue to be separated by the nation-state and this event must centre these simultaneous inhumanities perpetrated in the name of nationalism, borders, and “civilization.” These are colonial efforts and must be resisted. Visiting hours for families at this are Mon-Sun 9:30 am-11:15 am, 1:30 pm-3:15 pm, 7 pm-8:45 pm so we will begin the rally at 11:30am. Here’s the citation for the info above and a link for more info re: Canada’s system: https://ihrp.law.utoronto.ca/page/working-group-and-clinic-reports/invisible-citizens If you would like to speak at this event, DM the creator of this page. If you have an issue with this page, DM the creator of this page. I am an independent organizer looking to coordinate with all the community groups that have been working on this issues for many years and decades. This includes all immigrant/migrant/refugee social justice organizations.

There is a rally against Family Separation being held on June 30th, 2018 in Hamilton (Ontario), Canada.

Info:

The Hamilton Community is horrified about recent events south of the Border The Trump administration has cooked up a vile new scheme: ripping children away from their parents in order to discourage immigration. Separating families is more than cruel and unnecessary – it’s torture!! THERE ARE STILL UNACCOMPANIED CHILDREN LOCKED UP HAMILTON COMMUNITY! HAMILTON MOTHERS! HAMILTON UNIONS, HAMILTON FAITH COMMUNITIES, WE URGE YOU TO COME AND LET EVERYONE KNOW WE ARE AGAINST ALL FORMS OF FAMILY SEPARATION. BRING YOUR CHILDREN, BRING FRIENDS, YOU AS A COMMUNITY MEMBER CAN SPEAK AND LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD. Background: Update (6/21/2018): On June 20, President Trump issued an executive order claiming to end the family separation crisis he created. In reality, the order has no plan to reunite the thousands of children who remain separated from their parents – and it lays groundwork for mass family prison camps. We’ll continue to fight to reunite all families and stop future separations. This crisis isn’t over until the administration proves that family separation has actually ended and every child has been reunited with their families. There are many sources of information on USA but we also want to raise awareness in Canada: Canada is not immune when it comes to family separation * In 2016-2017, Canada jailed 162 minors, 11 of whom were unaccompanied. In 2015-2016, the number was 201, 20 of whom were unaccompanied. * In 2016-2017, over 2.5% of all individuals detained were minors in Canada. What to call for: * From the US government: An end to all detention, because whether it is children or parents, the resulting family separation is the same. * From the Canadian government: (1) Condemnation of the US government’s immigration policy, (2) ending the Safe Third Country Agreement which the federal government is trying to expand and which deters refugee claimants from coming into Canada via the United States + DCO list and refugee quotas which restrict refugee entry into Canada (3) Ending immigration detention in Canada and (4) Providing permanent residency status to all undocumented and migrant individual as otherwise they will end up in detention. As many others have noted - family separation outside of immigration policy has been taking place in Canada for generations, including through Residential Schools, the 60s scoop and CAS. What can we do in Canada? Read about myths and facts about immigrants and refugees (see Canadian Council for Refugees at http://ccrweb.ca/en/myths-facts). Read about immigration detention in Canada and alternatives in other countries (https://north99.org/2018/06/18/now-is-the-time-for-canada-to-end-child-detention-and-separation/). Read the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action (http://www.trc.ca/websites/trcinstitution/File/2015/Findings/Calls_to_Action_English2.pdf) and the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (or UNDRIP, http://www.un.org/esa/socdev/unpfii/documents/DRIPS_en.pdf). #FamiliesBelongTogether

Heard some people complaining that Colossal Dreadmaw is in every set now and I thought, what if Colossal Dreadmaw WAS in every set?

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.

“How to Art?”

“Hey man that’s not bad!”

“It’s not that great!”

“No it’s good man!”

“Maybe though, add some shading around where the head shadows the neck.”

“Make sure you it’s obvious where the light source is coming from.”

“It will help give the drawing more volume and depth.”

“Whoa! You’re really good at art, man!”

Concept: Some jackass shows Bucky how to make a blog and it becomes really popular. Not because it’s the blog of James Buchanan Barnes, American Legend, War Hero, Infamous Assassin, Alleged Terrorist. Nobody even knows it’s his blog. It gets really popular because people think it’s a really great shitpost generator or something. Because Bucky is just a Weird Fucking Person and everything he posts on his fucking personal blog comes off as somewhere between dril and Jaden Smith and people are like “this is some quality garbage right here” and thus Accidental Memelord Bucky is born.

“airbenders are able to warm themselves with only their breathing”

ok so this explains why katara and sokka were bundled up in parkas galore while aang was just walking around in his little jump suit like it was a perfect summer evening. I’m so glad this was cleared up. I literally thought Aang’s optimistic attitude is what kept him warm, heavens.
