I did it everyone, I kept my promise and made this meme dedicated to the fight for net neutrality and I’m on you’re side.
Reblog if you want a terrible, 3 sentence fan fiction in your ask, based on your url
Aries, Taurus, Scorpio, Capricorn, Gemini, Leo, Aquarius
Please help them!! I’ve seen some posts about this couple, but nobody here has directly posted the link to their crowd fund.
This isn’t art-related, but this is EXTREMELY SERIOUS IF YOU LIVE IN THE US. The following message is pasted from Reddit user DrDreamtime. I did not write this, but it contains all the most important information you should know. It should be spread as far and wide as possible.
For those that do not know or understand what net neutrality is and would rather see a video instead of a LOT of text, here is a good video by John Oliver on Net Neutrality.
Don’t want to do that? Understandable, it’s a 15 minute video. So heres a simple picture to highlight what things could look like
Please take the time to at least do the first easy step, either of the two options work and take very little time.
If this fails, the possibility of actually having to pay more to access reddit, facebook, and any other website or face massive loading speed increases or even a straight out site-block by your ISP.
Tell him how you feel.
Ajit Pai, FCC Chairman: 1-202-418-1000
Reddit won’t let me post the rest of the FCC contact information, something with the formatting and the automod, I think. You can click here, to go to the FCC’s official contact page.
You need to contact your representatives and senators about Net Neutrality even if they already support it, but especially if they don’t.
Remember that this very thread is only possible because of a free and open internet; kill net neutrality and threads like this might be a thing of the past.
Easy way:
Step 1: Go to BattleForTheNet.com. Step 2: Do what BattleForTheNet.com tells you to do.
-OR-
Text RESIST to 50409 to get help from RESIST Bot. It helps you find your reps, write letters to them, and sends them faxes FOR FREE. Everyone who cares about Net Neutrality should take 5 minutes to write to your representatives, once a week (or a day). Be heard.
The harder, but still very easy way:
Step 1: Find out who your Representative and Senator is/are.
Find your Representative.
Find your Senator.
Local elected officials.
Step 2: Find your Representative and Senator’s contact information.
5calls.org has a decent repository of Representatives and Senators contact information, though the site is a bit difficult to navigate.
Call My Congress just asks for your zip code and tells you what district you live in, who your Representatives are, and how to contact them.
DailyKos has a list of all of our Senator’s phone numbers, not just the DC office. (Current as of February, 2017.)
FaxZero has a system set up allowing you to fax your Representatives and Senators for free! (Faxes are good if you can’t get through on the phone lines, or just if you want congressional staffers to listen to fax machine noises until Net Neutrality is safe.)
Fax Congress
Fax Senators
Step 3: Call, write, or fax to express your feelings on this.
A lot of people are nervous about calling their elected officials for the first time, maybe you don’t know what to say, or how to say it, or even who you’ll be talking to, so here’s what you’ll need to know.
There’s a 75% chance your call will be answered by a Secretary who is specifically there to listen to your concerns, there’s a 25% chance your call will be bumped into a voicemail box which is specifically there to listen to your concerns, there is a ~0% chance you’ll find yourself on the phone with your Senator or Representative.
You may be asked for your name and address or zip code, it’s okay not to tell them if you don’t want to, but the information is useful for your elected officials. I usually just give my first name, zip code, and the name of my town.
Don’t worry about a script, don’t worry about being eloquent, you’re not writing Shakespeare here, you’re a concerned citizen voicing their frustrations, fears, and hopes. “I’m really scared of Ajit Pai’s plans to roll back net neutrality, a free and open internet is important to me because [Your reason here. Some suggestions: An open internet is important to democracy/I worry what Donald Trump might do with more power/Cable bills are already too high/etc.]. Please tell [Senator or Representative] that I support a free and open internet, I support Net Neutrality, and I vote.” The only hard and fast rule is that you need to be polite; these folks are getting dozens, if not hundreds of calls a day, they don’t need you bitching and swearing at them for something they have no control over. Be passionate, but be polite.
Reminder: Only call YOUR OWN elected officials! Calling Mitch McConnell from sunny Florida won’t do anyone any good, and might actually harm the cause. Only call your own elected officials, period.

aries: full mother bird mode. someone is going to get cut, stabbed, or possibly hospitalized. mauled just enough for them to learn a lesson. taurus: they get in a debate and argue back and forth with whoever is placing the person they care about in harm’s way. they’re great in arguments thanks to their resilience, so the person ends up giving up. gemini: they’d back them up like any tru homie 10/10. nothing too extreme because they don’t want anyone getting hurt, but it’s not cool to mess w people. cancer: you wouldn’t expect it from cancer, but they go on full on, almost as dangerous as aries when upset. not only will they get physical if necessary, they also know a lot of cards they could pull to make you look like a terrible person. bye-bye social status. leo: DO NOT MESS WITH THEIR FRIENDS. probably one of the deadliest people to mess with alongside aries and scorpio. they’ll destroy from the inside out or the outside in–any way they can, they’ll make it happen. virgo: they care for their friends, but the last thing they want is trouble. they’ll try to find a way to negotiate things out, and will probably succeed. libra: they know everyone and have ties everywhere. there’s no one to run when libra is around. libra knows all. libra sees all. libra hears all. scorpio: lmao grave should be dug and headstone rightfully purchased and carved into bc dead for sure sagittarius: they’ll try not to upset even the person harming their friend. they’ll just protect, protect, protect. maybe that will require some contact with the person, or even physical violence. whatever needs to happen, will. capricorn: they’ll snake their way into destroying the person socially. they’re not social butterflies, but they’re good with words and spreading their words around like wildfire. their friends are carefully selected and must be handled with great care because of that. aquarius: their friend will be protected in the end, but the “villain” will still leave with their limbs intact. their dignity, not so much. aquarius will probably mess with them playfully, but it will do the trick. pisces: they don’t want to pick sides. don’t make them. this is too stressful. their friend is their friend and they want to protect them, but the bully is big and scary and what if they come after them next?! this is too much. too dangerous. they’re just one person. they can’t take the pressure.
aries: haha fuck
taurus: this isn’t so ba — jk make it stop pls
gemini: pls god why me
cancer: again???

scorpio: can I sleep this one out
sagittarius: but they’re so lame tho
capricorn: @heart: can u not
aquarius: what is this I didn’t call for this
pisces: …maybe I’m just hungry??
*I’m aware that this isn’t an original idea, I just wanted to make my own post about it lmao*
Aries: Fucking fuck! I had plans to go to the grOCERY STORE.
Taurus: I really hope the lights stay on so I can finish this chapter.
Gemini: I have a prepare kit in case of emergencies, but I'm not going to share anything in it. Especially the flashlight, in case the light goes out.
Cancer: Perfect. I was hoping for an excuse to miss the start of my shift.
Leo: I'm stressing out because I need to make it to school, but I'm relieved that I'm missing my test.
Virgo: I literally hate all of these people and I haven't even said "Hello."
Libra: Is everyone okay? Does anyone need anything?
Scorpio: I can't tell if anyone is attractive enough to make a connection with...
Sagittarius: I guess someone didn't press the button hard enough! Hahaha!
Capricorn: Not only am I bored, but now some idiot's making senseless jokes. Life is so mundane.
Aquarius: I bet the person next to me just experienced a traumatic event, and the person closest to the buttons just had a promotion at work after going through a hard time, and the person in the corner...
Pisces: I'll throw this problem onto my pile of reasons why my week is horrible.
aries: they fall pretty hard, really fast. theyll obsess over you and do anything in their power to get you to pay attention to them. they will tell you nice things, try to show off or compete with you, or try and come up with the most random things that you have in common, they also might try to get into some of your hobbies or intests just to know you better. they may even act like this towards people they arent in love with, bc they naturally flirt with almost everyone without realizing it, but if they love you it will be almost 100% obvious. for some reason, they begin to fall for either too confident people or really insecure people. they crave an extremely passionate relationship thats nothing but interesting. to get to know them, really all you have to do is ask whatever you want to know. its rare that they are distant, even to people that they really hate.
taurus: theyll laugh at all of your jokes, smile a tonnn around you, and always try to make eye contact with you. theyll also buy you lots of thoughtful gifts that they think you might love! they may try to act like they dont love you, even by teasing you or making fun of you but they always fall really hard without even realizing it. when they realize they love you, they will touch you a lot and always want to be really close to you. although, taurus like to take everything they do slowly, they need some time to open up. the more you want to get to know them, the more you need to be patient and try to understand what they feel. the longer you know them, they more you will learn about them so dont rush it. also, if you want them to feel safer and more open with you, tell them about yourself and how you feel.
gemini: they will always tell stories and make up jokes to impress you. they'll do anything to grab your attention and become kinda loud when youre around. they will fall in and out of love a lot so dont be surprised if they move on quickly or their opinions change. at one moment theyll talk like they're madly in love with you to their friends and the next theyll be saying the worst stuff about you. deep down, gemini's main goal in life is to find their soulmate, no matter how long it takes them or how detached they seem. they normally, cut themselves off when it comes to showing their emotions, but they might reveal somethings if you are alone together. if you want them to open up, approach them v casually, not like you really deeply need to know.
cancer: they're very shy and quiet with their love and they'll try and keep it a secret from you. they will talk to their friends for hours about how much they love you. they will eventually subtly compliment you and stare and blush a lot, even though they wish they could tell you all the things they like about you. they dont like to fall in love, so theyll refuse they are even though its super obvious and theyll sulk and refuse when theyre called out on it. you can tell theyre in love when they start to look after you. they'll always want to make sure youre safe and theyll usually do something to get approval from you. they also tend to be shy, even just in general, but if they trust you, theyll be really willing to open up to you. so if you tell them how you feel, youll most likely get a lot in return.
leo: they'll act even more proud of themselves than usual, they think if they think highly of themselves or seem that way that you will think that too. they'll be really touch and always want to cuddle you, theyll also be really generous towards you. they always want to be seen with you as well, almost showing you off. although, they rarely fall completely in love, but when they do, they fall HARD. if you want a leo to open up to you, you just have to seem like you genuinely care and want to listen. if you ask and actually listen attentively, theyll tell you what you want to hear.
virgo: theyre very very nervous and shy around you. they'll stutter and have a loss of words. also, they stare a loooot. they actually dont really have a problem sharing how they think and feel, but they may seem a little complicated, because they dont even really know how they feel. they like to ask a lot of people their opinions on something to figure out if how they feel is the most logical, so theyll open up more if youre tolerant and reassuring of their thoughts.
libra: they look at you like theyre in love with you and they tease you a lot. theyll be giggly and even more charmimg than normal (if thats even possible). theyll compliment yoU A TON if they arent too shy. they fall in love a lot and really quickly. youll certainly be able to tell, theyll do anything to show you. they seem very friendly and sincere, even if they dont like you, but theyre actually a little scared of revealing too much. they fear rejection and judgement. if you want them to believe in you, show them that you realy admire then and that everything they think is ok with you.
scorpio: theyll laugh at almost anything you say and stare at you whenever you look away. they might even get so caught up in staring at you that theyll continue to stare even after you notice. theyll also tease you if you are close. they dont really take relationships all too seriously until they realize that theyre actually in love. it can be quite hard to get them to open, but when theyre stuck in the moment or so padsionate about something it may just all flow out. although, they are very secretive so if they dont want you to know something, you wont know. the best way ti get them to open up is intimacy. you must be very emotionally connected to them or in a deep relationship for them to share their deepest thoughts.
sagittarius: they will do a lot of things they normally wouldnt do and be extra friendly. theyll also make sure youre alway included in the situation. they dont really go out of their way when theyre in love. they like to watch and admire from afar, so you might not even notice. when it comes to sharing what they think, theyre pretty open, but they wont tell you everything if you're pressuring them. the best way to get them to talk about their feelings is to make it casual and just ask. you can also just wait for them to come to you, if theres something they want you to know, theyll tell you.
capricorn: they get kinda shy and overwhelmed when theyre around you, if you arent totally close. theyll smile a lot when they talk ot think about you. theyll also offer to do things for you and anything to make you happy. they fall deeply in love and when its over it can take them a long time to get over it. they may disappear for a while if something goes wrong, but theyll always come back to you. before they open up to you, they want to make sure you are very caring and that you wont judge them, so this can take some patience. they are less open about sharing feelings about love or anything that can make them feel vulnerable, but once they trust you theyll share almost anything with you. you may need to prove yourself multiple times or remind them that they really trust you, but its very worth it.
aquarius: theyll tease you and try to compete against you. they may even tell you things that they normally wouldnt share with anyone else. they take a while to realize the the like or even love someone so you may notice even before them. they will act very comfortable and a little strange around you and expect you to be totally comfortable around them aswell. they are very flustered when theyre in love and they may even deny it to you or to themselves. they are very accepting of anything that you might share with them but theyre distant when it comes to sharing what they feel. its very important that you act as their friend first before you expect anything too deep to come from them. you need to really show them and tell them that its ok to share how they feel and that you will be just as accepting as they are.
pisces: theyll flirt a little boldly then act as though they arent serious and they think amd talk about you all the time. theyll create little fantasies of you. they will act very sweet around you and try anything to see you smile, but they maybe a little more shy than normal. they love to fall in love and they fall in love with anyone who will love them. later, they may realize that it wasnt true love, but be too afraid to let you down. they will open up to you if they like you a lot and they feel that you trust them. they will follow their intuition and trust you if you feel it, you may need to be patient.
When it comes to gutting Net Neutrality, the phrase “It’s not gonna happen” pisses me the FUCK off. Odds are, the people who say that aren’t doing anything about it. And with the way things are going, it looks like it IS going to happen.
Saying “It’s not gonna happen” gives others a false sense of hope that this will not pass, meaning those who may have helped to make the difference in calling in will now feel like they don’t have to.
The people who say this are literally part of the problem. PLEASE be part of the solution.
Omg 😍 I couldn't help but say I'M DONNY BARNES tho...I'm ashamed😂😂😂
I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING DAMN
