tkfromthe90s asked: Ohhhhh Jeeeeeeeem~ Are you excited to walk into a hallway full of Mountaintop sticky mines, Prospector sticky kines, explosive throwing knife traps, actual tripmines, and smiling Hunters? Because I'm sure as hell ready to maaaaake theeeeeeem~
I don’t know what else I can say except that this is really important and please donate if you can!! (and if you can’t, reblog!!)
Wait. What’s going on?
Basically: a guy in Russia named Andrew Duskin is trying to copyright the entire Foundation over a small artbook featuring SCP-inspired art. The copyright has taken effect in Russia and now the Russian branch of the Foundation is shut down, and it has the potential to shut down the rest of the wiki.
Obviously, we’re REALLY mad because this one guy is trying to claim the work of thousands as his own, and the copyright will severely affect everyone involved in the Foundation, ESPECIALLY those who make their living off of it.
This copyright came up before in the past- and was briefly forgotten for some reason- and now the administrators are working to sue Andrew Duskin (as you can see here), but the process of suing someone is very expensive.
The main issue we all have with this is him trying to copyright everything. Like I said, it’s the work of thousands of people, and by putting a copyright on the Foundation, the whole thing might come to a halt and shut down because of copyright laws.
Which is, again, why he is (rightfully) getting sued.
So, if we want the Foundation to continue being the Foundation, we gotta help out if we can.
so today I drove past a traffic sign that said ‘hey teens buckling up is totes yeet yo’
i wish i was joking but after we screamed a bit my brother attempted to get a picture as proof, failed, and ended up with this masterpiece that pretty much sums up the whole experience
