“Keeping The Internet Open Is Critical For Us. It Powers Social Movements, And Provides A Global Platform

“Keeping the internet open is critical for us. It powers social movements, and provides a global platform for people of color, LGBTQ folks and the most marginalized communities to tell their own stories, run their own businesses and route around powerful gatekeepers.”—Candace Clement, Free Press Action Fund Campaign Director via @fight4future​

Starting today, June 11, U.S. internet providers will be legally allowed to censor and block websites and apps, and force you to pay extra fees to to access your favorite places online. Your internet sanctuaries, the communities you are part of, the ones you have help build up, could be decimated.

Will it happen today? No. Next week? Probably not. The changes will not be swift. They will come piece by piece. A slow, tempered death to the free and open internet we love.

It doesn’t have to be this way. You can still make a difference, Tumblr. We need the House of Representatives to sign a discharge petition in support of the Congressional Review Act that would force a vote on the floor.

Contact your reps—let them know you support net neutrality.

It’s so easy. Just go to BattleForTheNet.com, fill out the form, and follow their directions from there.

They have an updated widget for you to throw on your websites to urge others to make a difference. You can put it on your Tumblr. Let your followers know what you stand for, encourage them to do the same. It’s so easy to do. Just copy and paste their small line of code right into the customize theme page on the web.

Go, go, go, go. We know you have that passion in you. We’re fighting right alongside you.

Would you ever want to add another writer to help with one shots?

I guess I probably should, huh. Well, let me think about it and if I agree I'll hold a competition or something like that, I don't really know. Thanks for the suggestion!

Are you an Angel? Cause' I'm a Dinosaur

One-Shot request: You’re a new employee to Jurassic World and Owen fall in love with you and keeps flirting with you. Announcements: I literally have NO idea how to flirt so I reverted back to dinosaur pick-up lines. Hope you enjoy! Warnings: None

Dress codes sucked, you decided as you lifted the last sack of food onto the truck and shut the gate. I mean, it was 103 degree weather on a tropical island and you had to wear pants, like, really heavy long pants. You suffered in silence though, I mean, who can complain when you get to feed dinosaurs? This was a job of a life time that also satisfied your childhood dreams. You were new to Jurassic World but so far had gotten along pretty well with all of your coworkers and the animal trainers, at least the ones you’ve met. It was later in the day and you only had one more stop, the Velociraptors. Chills went up and down your spine, this would be the first time you would get to see them. You had heard all of the stories on the news and gossip amongst the workers about what had happened 22 years ago when they first tried to open the park, about the horrors of Jurassic Park and how Raptors were a big part of it. But you pushed those thoughts to the back of your head as you climbed in, started up the truck, and made your way towards the enclosure. Eventually you found it, parked, and hopped out of the nice cool car and into humid island stickiness. You noticed everyone seemed a little on edge and saw a skinny looking kid being looked at by a medic. You furrowed your eyebrows and frowned slightly as you looked around for someone who would tell you where to unload. You caught the attention of a man who came over to where you were leaning against the car. “Hi,” you introduced yourself, “I’m here to drop off the food for the week. Can I asked what happened?” He sighed and looked back at the skinny kid, “He fell over and into the enclosure. He’s fine but it gave us all a scare. Anyway, you can grab some guys and unload the food over there,” He nodded with his head over to a little area built into the side of the concrete wall of the arena. You looked at him funny, “He fell in with the Raptors and he’s ok? How did that happen?” He opened his mouth to speak but was cut off by another, rather cute looking, man with deep green eyes, “I, just being my usual awesome self, hopped in and showed the Raptors whose Alpha.” The first man snorted, “Yeah, your ‘usual awesome self’, that’s a good one Owen, really subtle.” Owen shot the man a slight glare, “Thanks, Barry, really.” Barry chuckled, “Alright, alright, I’m leaving.” And with that he walked away and started up another conversation with some other men. Owen shook his head and turned back to find you already unloading the truck, “Hey, do you need some help?” “That would be great. Be careful though, sometimes the meat bleeds through the sack.” He smirked as he picked up a bag, “That’s ok, I don’t mind getting a little dirty.” You thought you saw him wink but your turned around too quickly to notice, you were trying to hide the fact your cheeks were bright pink. This continued for a minute or so, an awkward silence as the both of you went back and forth from the truck to the growing pile of food. Finally you said something, “So, did you really jump in front of a bunch of Raptors?” He looked up and smiled handsomely, “Yeah, like I said,” he looked you in the eyes with his dark green ones, “I’m the Alpha.” “Oh,” you said simply. He was not really trying to be subtle was he, you thought. Again there was a little time where neither of you said anything. But then, “You know,” Owen started, “Kiss me if I’m wrong but you’ve seen the Raptors, right?” You almost choked right then and there, “No,” you managed, “I haven’t had the chance.” He smiled over at you again, “So, what have you heard about me?” You glanced over at him, “Just that you’re the Raptor whisperer, and that you could be a little cold sometimes, at least that’s what I’ve heard.” You turned around to find him right in front of you, “Don’t believe what you hear, I’m as warm-blooded as they come.” You raised your eyebrows, “Oh, so we’re venturing into this territory now? Dino pick-up lines, nice,” You smiled and grabbed the last sack in the truck. “Live in the moment, I like to say, we could all be extinct tomorrow.” “Wow. Why are you flirting with me?” He looked at you softly, “One look at you and I feel like I’ve died and gone to a museum.” Your smile widened, “You do realized we’re holding bags of bloody meat in our hands, right? Not the most ideal place for this kind of conversation.” “Does this mean Jurassic-ing me back to your place?” You laughed and heaved the sack onto the pile and turned around to look back at the man in front of you, “These are possibly the most corny pick-up lines, and about dinosaurs I might add,” He looked down, slightly discouraged, “But, they might just be working.” He looked back up, smiling that goofy smile of his, “I can tell you more over coffee if you’d like.” You looked around, “I would say its carbon date!” You both chuckled and said your good-byes, exchanging numbers in the process and went on your ways. Driving back to your little trailer you began laughing, what a dork, you thought. The following Friday you met up with him at the parks coffee place. He looked good enough to eat.

No

One-Shot: Hi can I have a Teen Wolf one shot when I’m Scott’s sister and Stiles falls in love with me? Announcements: Sorry I haven’t posted in a while… I’ve just been really busy but I hope you all like it! Warnings: None

You changed out your Science books for English and slammed the locker door shut, revealing the puppy dog face of your older brother. Not the werewolf puppy dog kind, but the kind where he puffs out his lower lip and looked at you with round eyes.

You looked at him, “Hello, Scott, what do you want?”

“I love you too,” he replied, “Why do you think I need anything?”

“Scott please, have some faith in me.”

“All right, so here’s the deal, Kira and I have plans for a really nice night, I’m taking her out to that really nice restaurant, y'know, downtown? It took me two weeks to get a reservation, but anyways, then I’m taking her to a movie and I’m paying and anyways, it’s going to be really nice and-”

“Scott, I’m going to be late for class at the rate you’re going. Please, just get to the point.”

He slid himself in front of you and grabbed you lightly by the shoulders, smiling a cheesy smile, “See the thing is that, I have a shift tonight at the clinic and I need you to cover for me.”

You groaned, since you worked with your brother at the clinic and since you were single you had always gotten stuck with taking his shifts whenever he had a date. You didn’t have to take these shifts obviously, but you really couldn’t say no, he always had good excuses.

“Please? You would be the best little sibling in the entire world and I would love you forever.” he said, his eyes growing big.

You stopped walking in front of your english class, other kids pouring in around the two of you, “Ugh, fine. But you have to bring me back left overs when you’re done. Now move.”

He smiled and let you go, “Thank you so much. I promise I’ll make it up to you. Later!”

You huffed and made your way into the classroom without replying.

The air smelled like disinfectant and medical instruments as you wiped down the main examination table and other surfaces in the room. Today had been a very long day for you, seeing you had to do two people’s worth of work non-stop after school along with homework. You threw the dirty paper towel into the garbage and sat down, wiping your forehead and closing your eyes.

You were about to stand up, grab your stuff, and head back home when the front doors burst open, “Scott! Hey Scott, I need to talk to you-”

A young man, a rather cute looking young man, about the same age as your brother rounded the corner, stopping when he saw you.

You recognized him as Scott’s best friend, Styles, “Uh, hey, Scotts not here, do you need me to tell him something?”

He stared at you with wide-eyes, “I, uh, no. I just needed to, uh, you look very familiar, do I know you?”

“Yeah, we go to the same school. I’m just a year under you.”

“Oh,” he paused.

“So did you need me to talk to Scott for you?” you asked.

“Uh, nah, I just needed to talk to him… so you know him?”

You chuckled, “Yeah, I know him.”

“Cool, cool. Um, so I guess I’ll see you around then? At school?”

You looked him in his deep colored eyes, “Yeah, sure. See you around.”

He made an awkward smile and backed out of the doorway. You were about to turn around when he came running back in and tried to nonchalantly lean on the doorway.

“I almost forgot, what’s your name?”

You smiled, “Y/N, what’s yours?” Of course you knew his name though, did he not know you were Scott’s sibling?

“Styles. Uh, yeah, see ya!” and with that, he exited the building again.

You paused for a moment, expecting, no, hoping he would come back through the door. When he didn’t you shrugged and went out to your car.

School, you thought, might be a little more interesting tomorrow.

—-

Styles looked around the hallways trying to catch a glimpse you walking to your next class. He swiveled his head back and forth, scanning the faces passing by, looking for the cutest one, yours.

Scott looked over at his friend and frowned, “Dude, whats wrong? You’ve been like this all morning, who are you looking for?”

Styles spoke without looking at him, “Yeah, um, oh! There they are, ahh. They’re beautiful, don’t you think? I met them last night at the clinic when I was looking for you but, they’re… why are you looking at me like that?”

Styles faced Scott, who was giving him a look, “Seriously, whats wrong?”

Scott pointed to where you were walking, “Them?”

He nodded, “Uh, yeah, why?”

“Dude, that’s my sibling. No.”

Styles gulped, “N-no?”

The other boy growled, like, literally growled, “Just… no.”

Click on the 17-108 link (Restoring Internet Freedom) 2. Click on “express” 3. Be sure to hit “ENTER” after you put in your name & info so it registers. 4. In the comment section write, “I strongly support net neutrality backed by Title 2 oversight of ISPs.” 5. Click to submit, done. - Make sure you hit submit at the end! **Feel free to share this**
