Don’t coddle white people’s feeling about race. Don’t change your behavior to appease them, hoping that’ll accept you. Don’t degrade or mock your race so white people will like you. Don’t allow yourself to be their token friend. 

Children of color are not protected from racism, they aren’t given that privilege of being coddled. White people don’t need it either. White people won’t truly accept you the way you hope they will. They’ll tokenize and use you against other people of your race. 

the officers who murdered george floyd should be on trial for murder. getting fired is not enough.

Boyd Grape slush :3

Leo lake trip? i love your art ^^

Leooooo

(Also nice to hear you like my art!)

Gyro and B.O.Y.D's moments is the cutest thing ever! (╥﹏╥)

I hope that B.O.Y.D and Gyro become closer and start to have a father-son bond in future episodes.

Huey and B.O.YD <3

This episode was AMAZING! Huey and B.O.Y.D's friendship is just so wholesome and adorable! It's also nice to see Huey go on adventures on his own without his family from time to time (not that it's a bad thing), it really shows that huey is maturing. He's exploring and he learned a lot from the experience. The fact that Huey didn't even panic (well maybe he did but he handled the situation quite nicely) when B.O.Y.D went haywire shows that Huey gained more confidence and he knows that B.O.Y.D is nice and under all those wires has a big heart (not literally) UwU

If you haven't seen the latest episode yet, go see it now!

Yes, intern. I was once like you. Of course, I was a naive idiot back then.. But if I had someone to actually listen to me, I might not have been so hopeless. So...

WHY THE FUCK ARE THERE NO POSTS ON THE WHOLE COPPA AND YOUTUBE SITUATION

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JzXiSkoFKw

Watch this video to understand what’s whappening, but as a general TLDR, if The Children’s online privacy protection act is inforced on Youtube, youtube content as we know it will change forever.

If you don’t have time to watch the video let me summarize it (and other videos on the topic) for you

One of the things COPPA prohibits is the use of personalized ads (Ads based on your location, age, sex, gender, interests, basically all the data that is collected through use of the internet) for children under the age of 13. For this, Youtube was fined and now they’re making changes to the way the platform works. 

One of these changes is making creators mark their content as “Meant for kids” or not. However there are a wide range of items that, on youtube’s eyes, classifies as children media. 

So basically if your video contains something that falls under any of these categories, even if its just one, and a minor thing, youtube can flag it as kids video and apply the new restrictions to this video or even your channel as a whole. And if youtube’s automated system finds any of these things in a video NOT catered for children, it can penalize you both by applying these restrictions anyways, striking you, or fining you for breaking the law

This is a snippet of a complaint made to be submitted to COPPAS’ feedback page, since they saw how problematic this act and laws can be. The whole complaint was written by a mexican youtube channel called Alfrely, and it reads:

YouTube viewers and creators petition the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to clarify and reconsider the new Children’s Online Privacy Protection (COPPA Rule) regulations on YouTube creators. Shutting off personalized ads on creators’ content will cause more harm than good, especially for children. Quality family-friendly content will shrink, while more mature content will grow — yet kids will still be watching.   The FTC should not expand COPPA regulations for content creators. Broadening the definition of “child-directed” to include “child-attractive” would force many more creators to turn off personalized ads. As a result, even more quality content will dry up, and more mature and extreme content will fill the platform. The free YouTube Kids app is a better solution than regulation targeting family-friendly creators. YouTube Kids removes privacy concerns around personalized ads. Parents buy devices and allow their children to watch YouTube Main. Many parents prefer to use YouTube Main because it has more features and less barriers. Creators should not be punished when parents choose not to use YouTube Kids. COPPA is about putting parents in control of protecting their children’s personal information online. The FTC should not use COPPA to remove parents from the process in regulating content and online advertising. While large corporations will survive these changes, small business creators face terminating employees, changing their business model, or shutting down production altogether. These regulations will particularly hurt young underserved audiences who participate in YouTube communities on topics like special needs, faith, and minority groups. Limiting quality free content for kids expands the digital divide. Turning off personalized ads on kids’ content also encourages increased product placement and brand deals within kids’ content. Creators face COPPA fines up to $42,530 per video, yet the regulation and definition of “child-directed” is vague. The FTC needs to provide creators with enforcement clarity.  We ask the FTC to: 1. Provide an enforcement statement for creators 2. Clarify the definition of “child-directed,” and not expand it to cover “child-attractive” content  3. Delay enforcement against creators until the FTC concludes its review of COPPA 4. Allow parents to use YouTube Kids or YouTube Main, without forcing creators to turn off personalized ads when parents choose to use YouTube Main 

Now onto another point:

The woman from the video replies

“We will start limiting the data we collect from ‘Made for kids content’ to comply with the law.”

The changes that will be applied to these videos are:

Comments

Personalized ads

Info cards

End screens

Stories

Community tab

Notification bell

Ability to “Save to watch later” or add to playlists, just to name the ones listed.

You basically get stripped of everything that makes youtube, youtube.

This change basically encourages content creators that live off the platform to create content that DOESN’T cater to children, creating more mature content that is already frowned upon on youtube and by advertisers, and will inevitaly make kids continue to consume media that is not for them

Not to mention that things like cartoons and videogames will be among the things that people won’t talk about.

Big corporations will always find a way to make this work, and the people who depend on youtube for a living may also find a way to make this work, but at the end of the day, it will ruin the careers and possibly the lives of many many creators, maybe even creators that you enjoy.

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT THIS. THE MORE PEOPLE SUBMITTING FEEDBACK TO THE FTC, THE MORE CHANCES TO SAVE THIS WE HAVE. DON’T SLEEP ON THIS.

I’m not good at making any posts like these so I may be forgetting things or saying something wrong so please reblog and correct me or add to what I’m saying. Spread the word.

Yo, I was gonna go with a different format, but couldn’t find it

Here’s a comic that I never finished, back from when I started watching both DT17 and DWD. Also a bonus Gyro:

the news about bolivia is so incredibly infuriating. the fact that people are happy about evo’s resignation, trying to convince everyone that this is what the majority wanted, that he cheated, that he rigged the elections even though he won the election fair and square, is infuriating. it is an insult to every indigenous person, every poor person, every working person, everyone who stood by and continues to stand behind evo in this. there is no reason to celebrate this. death to neoliberalism, death to the cia, death to capitalism and corporations and fascism. viva evo, viva bolivia.
