Would you believe me if i told you that it’s a German tradition on New Year’s Eve to watch a British black and white sketch from the sixties that’s entirely in English and deals with an old rich woman celebrating her 90th birthday while her butler impersonates her dead friends and gets more and more drunk throughout the sketch, with the highlight being the multiple times said butler stumbles over the head of their stuffed tiger carpet? And also that this sketch is not almost completely unknown in its home and that the writer and star of that sketch actually really hated the Germans?
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.

Looking for translators for subtitles with EXILE TRIBE stuff.
I am very sad at the lack of subtitles when it comes to EXILE TRIBE and I really want to do something about it, and I can sadly not translate myself, but I can time, typeset and encode.
I’m looiking for someone or several people willing to translate either from Japanese to English or from Chinese to English, given we can get permission from the Chinese subbers to translate their subs.
Mainly I am seeking some to translate, Sandaime J Soul Brothers, Generations, EXILE, EXILE THE SECOND stuff.
something i learned today: never play frisbee with long nails. my thumb still hurts and half of my nail is gone. it took me so long to grow it out and get it shaped like it was.
I’m the kind of girl who is quiet in large groups or around people I don’t know; you only see the real me if we’re close. I smile and laugh a lot, especially at the most inappropriate times. I’m a hopeless romantic. I trip over air, up stairs, and over people’s feet. I am the hardest person to offend, but it is all too easy to make me feel horrible. I hate telling people about my problems; they don’t need to worry about me. I’m the one who listens to other people’s problems. I believe people should not be judged before one takes the time to get to know them, yet I am guilty of doing that exact thing. I love to think rather than talk. I’m awkward, clumsy, shy, strange… but this is me. Take it or leave it.
