There Should Be A Tax That Youtubers Pay Where 1.5% Of All Of Their Revenue Goes Back To Kevin Macleod

Controversial Truths About Ancient Egypt Masterpost

The pyramids were built by contemporary workers who received wages and were fed and taken care of during construction

The Dendera “lightbulb” is a representation of the creation myth and has nothing to do with electricity

We didn’t find “““copper wiring””” in the great pyramid either

Hatshepsut wasn’t transgender

The gods didn’t actually have animal heads

Hieroglyphs aren’t mysteriously magical; they’re just a language (seriously we have shopping lists and work rosters and even ancient erotica)

The ancient Egyptian ethnicity wasn’t homogeneous

Noses (and ears, and arms) broke off statues and reliefs for a variety of reasons, none of which are “there is a widespread archaeological conspiracy to hide the Egyptian ethnicity”

Please give what you can.

!!ATTENTION!!

ART THIEF WARNING!!!

Turns out, there’s an ENTIRE website making money off of stolen art. It’s called CopyCover, and even the fucking name implies that it steals art for phone covers (which it does exactly that).

SPREAD THIS MESSAGE LIKE THE PLAGUE

Here’s some screenshots of phone cases that could include stolen art!(YOUTUBE-RELATED. There may be other fandoms involved in this too!!) I found my art in this!!! If you recognize an artist, PLEASE inform them! 

(Take note that there IS a slight possibility that some of these are not stolen, and are the actual artists selling their stuff, but this website stole MY art, so I’m assuming it’s stealing everyone’s. I follow a lot of these artists shown here, and none of them have EVER promoted this website)

AND BEFORE YOU SAY: “Oh! They credited the artists, so it’s okay!”

NO. IT’S NOT OKAY. THIS WEBSITE IS MAKING MONEY OFF OF OTHERS’ ART WITHOUT PERMISSION. THAT IS STEALING. IT DOESNT MATTER IF CREDIT IS GIVEN. PERMISSION FROM THE ARTIST NEEDS TO BE GRANTED. (That’s like if you stole money from a bank, and “credited’ them by saying which bank you stole from).

PLEASE HELP SPREAD THIS MESSAGE! THANK YOU.

(I will tag artists shown in the examples above, and I will tag people that can help spread this around!)

Welcome to Good Omens Comics where the colors are made up and the character design doesn’t matter.  Here’s the WHOLE drunk conversation. Pg61-65 in my copy of the book

View it here X on tapas for better quality

This would have been done sooner and look better if I didn’t get waylaid by Moving and Pet Sitting and things like that. But I’ll call it a WIP for now until I go back and revise the whole thing  Under a cut because it’s about a mile long and set up for mobile. 

Keep reading

Very informative thread -source

AAAAAA I LOVE IT

this was bound to happen. it really was

tl;dr my country is literally on fire and the politicians refuse to help

I know there’s a lot going on in the world, but you probably haven’t heard about what’s happening in Australia.

we’re on fire.

approximately ¼ of australia’s population is in catastrophic fire danger. A catastrophic fire level means your only chance of surviving is leaving before it’s too late.

it’s Spring in Australia, and rainforests aren’t meant to be dry enough to burn, yet at the time of writing this (11/11/19) there are 71 active fires in NSW (43 out of control), and 51 active fires in Queensland - not including those that have already burned before now, and there are more in other states. Sydney is already rated “catastrophic”, the first time this rating has ever been used there since its creation in 2009. That’s right, we had to add yet another level of destructiveness, because “high”, “very high”, “severe”, and “extreme” were no longer adequate. To quote the Fire Danger Ratings, “for your survival, leaving early is the only option”. conditions tomorrow will be the worst they have been, and people are evacuating as we speak. the fire fighters are preparing as best they can.

This isn’t just about people losing their homes; people have died and will die, countless animals have already lost their lives and many more will still perish. our land, our lives, and our hope is up in flames and will soon be nothing but ash. the annual fire season has not even begun yet. this is only the beginning. my native land is burning, and there is nothing i can do to stop it.

the government refuses to acknowledge that we are in a climate crisis. the fires have never been this bad. we have been in severe drought for more than a year which has only contributed to the force of these fires. the Prime Minister Scott Morrison has done nothing but send his “thoughts and prayers”. He will not accept aid from other countries because he is too egotistical to admit that we need it. All the while the people of this land are suffering. Climate change needs radical human change to be combated. we are already seeing the results of years of indifference, and this is barely the beginning of something that will only get worse the longer government’s and big companies refuse to act to counteract climate change.

Our government has also cut funding to Fire and Rescue NSW by 35.4%, the Rural Fire Service by 75.2%, and QLD Rural Fire Service by 26.42%, resulting in closures of services; they don’t have the resources to cope. We are fighting a losing battle against the results of climate change.  and this is only the beginning.

A little background as to why the Markiplier fandom is panicking about The Edge of Sleep.

So YEARS ago. Mark was in a podcast called The Edge of Sleep, which was adapted into a TV series... Which was never released

Until

Mark made a movie adaptation of a video game, Iron Lung. He's put all his energy into this film, directing, producing, editing, even starring in it. the movie is done, and he's working to get it released in theaters.

We, the public don't know why, but we know that some doors have been locked on the release of Iron Lung, however some big wigs somewhere have promised that if his popularity alone can put Edge of Sleep in the TOP TEN a lot of doors will open for Iron Lung. He wasn't allowed to even say where it would premiere, nor was it advertised AT ALL

So now, Edge of Sleep has shadow dropped on Amazon Prime in the US. Three days BEFORE they even told Mark it would air. In order to get this man's work out in theaters this thing has to get to the top ten by word of mouth alone.

So. Watch Edge of Sleep! It's an apocalyptic horror. There are some mild gore warnings (blood, knife mutilation, brain dissection, self harm). Even if you can play it in the background and let it run just so it gets views thatd be helpful.

Stick it to the Hollywood Bigwigs! Show them YouTubers can have an audience! Open some doors for creative people trying to show their work to a bigger audience!
