ATTENTION HOMESTUCK COMMUNITY →

bilious-slick:

ohgodwry:

Do you know what this link is?

It is a link to a production company that is GOING TO ANIMATE HOMESTUCK (ACT 1). They’re going to animate the entire first Act, and then present it to Hussie and Whitefish if it’s a success.

So yeah, it’s a pretty big deal.

They are ALSO going to be holding auditions for voice acting(NOT YET HOWEVER—DON’T ASK ABOUT IT RIGHT NOW), as well as places for people to join their production team! This include signal boosters, consultants, public relations, sound editors, Foley/Ambiance/Music Researchers/recorders, website maintenance, and coordinators. If you do help out, not only will you get your name out there, but it also looks fantastic on a resume or college application.

I can’t stress how important this is, as the FTS Studios is so willing to give their time and effort to give back to the community.

Even if you can’t join the team, please do them a service and reblog this. We want Homestucks, and even non-Homestucks, to help, as this is a serious animation project.

AGAIN THIS IS THE LINK TO THEIR PAGE WHERE THEY WILL ANSWER QUESTIONS OR MAKE ANNOUNCEMENTS.

They are also going to be posting their announcements in the tag “HomestuckFTS” (no quotation marks)

So yeah, help them out. 

please be real and please be a quality animation team

If Tumblr Can Help a Guy Get a Chicken…

Hello. My name is Neoma Lindley, and I live with a condition called ‘pseudo-tumor cerebri’, a form of IIH (idiopathic inter-cranial hypertension). This condition causes severe migraines, vision problems, and at times leaves me in such pain that I can’t function.

Treatment for this condition is a lumbar puncture and tap, to remove excess cerebral-spinal fluid. However, this procedure is expensive, and since my mother’s death last April, I have not been able to afford a tap, meaning my inter-cranial pressure is very high, and I am struggling to function.

With out treatment, I am experiencing radical and continual vision loss. I really need help.

I need this tap, and I need it as soon as possible, but without aid there is no way way for me to get it. Every little bit helps, you have no idea — if four thousand people can spare a single dollar to me, I’ll be in the clear for this procedure.

Please guys, I know this pain, I dealt with this just over a year ago and may be dealing with it now.
I have dealt with a lot of pain in my life, but the pain of a pseudo tumor is something… special. I have never vomited strictly from pain until then.

If it is untreated it can cause permanent blindness, brain damage, even death if it gets bad enough, long enough.

Signal boosting. Pseudotumor is literally the worst pain in the entire world ok like seriously until I got my tap all I could do was cry and throw up, I couldn’t even sleep I was in so much pain, much less get out of bed. 

Please donate. I can’t imagine not being able to get treatment. 

((It’s kind of mind blowing to see other people commenting on this post who know what I’m going through. Just, wow. Thank y’all for helping spread the word.))

Save George Buzinkai!

iambowman:

Yes, the same George Buzinkai who has contributed so much to the soundtrack of Homestuck including Doctor, Explore, Endless Climb, and Firefly has been through a lot lately.

Despite having composed some of the most identifiable and beloved themes in the Homestuck soundtrack, George Buzinkai has been befallen some of the worst luck. In the last year he has suffered many hardships while attempting to pay his way through college to pursue an animation degree with little-to-no financial support. He has had little time to create music between Hurricane Sandy turning his life upside-down for a month and relocating several times throughout the past months.

Most recently his house burned down, leaving him homeless, uninsured, and destroying all his old music equipment. In one fell swoop, Buzinkai has lost all of his work including his Homestuck music and animation projects.

If you have anything to spare, please visit his homepage at buzinkai.net and donate to his Paypal. This isn’t a fundraiser - there’s no rewards - this is simply about George’s well-being.

Buzinkai has been a calm and courteous contributor to Homestuck from the beginning and almost never speaks up until he has something to add. He doesn’t vent about his hardship over the Internet - he has no Tumblr and only 82 posts on the MSPA forum - and only brought these problems to us because he wants us to know he’s trying his best to contribute to Homestuck but just can’t find the time or resources.

So if you have a moment please share his site buzinkai.net with other Homestuck fans and give whatever you can. He has never asked for a favor of any kind from us until now - we hope you’ll help.

My mom said if this post gets 500,000 notes nothing will happen.

But if this petition gets 500,000 signatures we can get federal laws preventing rapists from suing for custody/visitation of their victim’s children.

You guys accomplished Operation Fluffy Chicken
How about putting in an effort to Operation We’re Finally Taking Rape Seriously?

HEY GUYS THIS IS IMPORTANT.

This is my school. This is what happened to my school last night. The Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York had a massive fire break out last night around 2:30 am in the senior painting studios. BFA painting students who were almost completed with their thesis presentations lost ALL of their work with only weeks until senior gallery shows were scheduled to start. No one was seriously injured, luckily, but this is a devastating loss for our school’s young professionals who are just about to embark on a career, now without the fruits of four years worth of intense labor and dedication.

Here’s the New York Times article on the fire: nyti.ms/YkDmj9

Right now, our students need all the support they can get. If you have any time, money, supplies, or resources that you can donate to aid our students or help in the rebuilding efforts please contact the active dean of the art and design department, Leighton Pierce, at lpierce@pratt.edu. There is no current phone number for anyone in the administrative department due relocations after the fire, but any further help can be directed to Pratt’s president, Thomas Schutte, at  tschutte@pratt.edu.

Oh man…Signal boost… ;~;

Oh, that’s terrible! ;_;

I loved being at Pratt and so many students lost all their work. Please try and donate what you can.

hi! i wanted to bring attention to you guys this cat, carl, who really needs help.

as i quote from the page:

Hi my name is Natalie Graciano mommy and owner of cat Carl aka my baby.. He fell from the fourth floor of my building and broke his jaw. I have three days to come up with $6000 for his surgery and was admitted to Oradell Animal Hospital under intensive care. He is in critical condition. For the time being he is getting pain medicine and antibiotics and is in so much pain. He cannot eat because he is unable to close his mouth. From what it looked like to me being that I’ve raised him, his teeth look detached and hanging from the roof of his mouth. He is in extreme pain! I’ve gotten multiple opinions and based on what we have found out he will not survive without this procedure done he will starve to death from not being able to use his mouth. Carl is the sweetest cat on earth! This is my only hope to saving his life. I try to take care of my cat the best I can  and would of never expected anything like this to ever happen therefore I was not prepared for this type of expense and you guys are the only hope I have to saving his life. He is all I have and I am all he knows and has as well. If I had the money I wouldn’t think twice about putting up the money to pay whatever expense to save my cat Carl’s life but since I don’t have the money this is why I’m going down this route. I would really appreciate if anyone out there can help! 

Thank you, 
Natalie Graciano

!!!URGENT: BAD VIRUS GOING AROUND, PLEASE READ!!!

This is ScorecardResearch. A terrible virus, an awful popup, & something that should be avoided at all costs.

Be careful of the malicious websites you go on. One of them may install behind your back this popup. ScorecardResearch is a dangerous pop-up virus. It seems legit, right? But why would something just pop up without your permission? I received this twice. After the second time, I decided to look into it.

I started noticing that whenever I loaded a page, Chrome would have this at the bottom:

Why is this working behind the scenes of my browser?

According to BotCrawl.com, this is what ScorecardResearch is:

“ScorecardResearch.com, including b.scorecardresearch.com, and Scorecard Research surveys are categorized as severe malware, and is most noted to be connected to a Trojan infection that attempts to disguise as a legitimate marketing research group collecting anonymous data and information about the user’s internet activity, usage, etc.”

Do not click into this. Don’t touch anything. Close the tab immediately. Go through all your programs, addons, etc, & delete anything suspicious. Scan your computer, delete your cookies & clear your cache, do whatever it takes. You can read more here.

tl;dr — Do not trust ScorecardResearch. This thing will fuck you over.

OK IDK IF ANYONE ELSE HAS SEEN THIS but ive actually seen it on quite a few of my ‘reblogs’ from various people with ‘Absolutely impossible’ and the first time i clicked it brought me to a WEIRD LOOKING SITE and my firewall was warning me about malicious blahblah blocked
id ignore it but seeing it more than once makes me wonder if anyone else has seen this?  

Edit; JUST DONT CLICK IT ITS BAD

We need JUST UNDER 400 more signatures!!!! →

With this update, the Tumblr staff have succeeded in alienating their entire userbase. The Tumblr staff have added features that make it more like a fully-equipped Twitter ripoff than the actual Tumblr site now. People once used Tumblr to AVOID having to deal with the interface of Twitter or Facebook, but that is a thing of the past now, apparently.

This petition’s purpose is simply to roll back the update- give Tumblr users back the posting on seperate pages, and more importantly for many users, fix what damage this update did to RP or story blogs.

Hey folks.

Go do this.

EDIT: Also, apparently the signatures needed is now more than 2000. Better get your gears in gear, friends.
