The heartbeats of the universe and the earth overlap, “Ultraman Omega” is complete!!
Although my time as Sorato was short, the days I spent with everyone were fun.
Be happy!!! Thank you. I want to eat yakisoba again.
sometimes I talk about disliking copyright/IP on here, and I always try to stress that the reason these conversations matter is because copyright law is used in real life to hurt real people. I want to highlight a current example of this happening which I haven’t seen talked about on my dash yet.
Solar Being is a small business run by two natural hair sculpting artists. their art has gone viral online a few times, and one of their most recognizable creations are their shaped hair puffs:
recently, their business has been under attack by frivolous DMCA & copyright infringement complaints by a competing company. Solar Being has had to close pre-orders for their hair extensions and redirect the funding they raised through a kickstarter campaign into now building a legal defense fund, at the expense of their allocated labor and production budget. in the meantime, they can’t even post uncensored photos of their star puffs to social media without facing copyright claims. this issue goes beyond just promotional materials and is also affecting any posts where they (or their customers!) have their hair puffs visible.
on Solar Being’s legal defense page they say they “believe [geometric hairstyle] designs should remain free for others to use, reinterpret, and express through their creative and commercial endeavors”. and if these copyright infringement complaints are held up, it will likely affect the rights of other natural hair sculpting artists to create designs like this.
if you’d like to support Solar Being’s legal fund they’re accepting donations now, and I’d recommend supporting them through social media as well. I’m not personally associated with Solar Being and am just repeating what they’ve already said through their website and social media.
lots of people around copyright/IP discussions like to talk about supporting artists, and if you want direct that supportive energy somewhere productive I feel this situation is one that deserves your attention.

Time is running out and my wife’s life is in danger
I will not be able to forgive the silence that ignores this human plea
This is not an exaggeration or an attempt to pressure — this is what the doctors have confirmed My wife’s health is deteriorating due to a severe vitamin deficiency and malnutrition and her body can no longer endure any delay
The urgent surgery and treatment are her only chance to survive Every day without support brings us closer to the worst.
I stand helpless beside her watching the woman I love grow weaker before my eyes with nothing left but hope in the kindness of others.
Your donation or even a share could be the difference between life and death

Sadly, in Gaza even basic wound disinfectants are unaffordable—if they exist at all. Today, Qais’s wound became infected, swelling larger and angrier. I will not forgive anyone who scrolls past and keeps browsing without sharing my post.
His wound is worsening, infection is spreading, and surgery is urgent. I am a mother in Gaza with no medicine and no answers, watching time steal my child piece by piece. Please donate to save Qais.
I refuse to let my baby fade quietly while the world scrolls past. If you are reading this, you are part of his story now. Share, help, donate now—be the reason Qais gets another tomorrow.

My name is Motasem from Gaza 🇵🇸🍉,
a father to a small child who asks nothing from this world except the most basic needs for his family—milk for my baby and safety.🥺
Today, I am unemployed, living a harsh reality after our homes were destroyed and we were stripped of the simplest necessities of life.
My child urgently needs baby milk and diapers, and I am unable to provide them amid extreme prices, siege, and destruction.
Gaza can no longer endure this suffering, and its children are paying the heaviest price.
Any support, no matter how small, can make a real difference in the life of an innocent child.
From a heart weighed down with pain, I reach out my hand to you… hoping that compassion can still find its way to us.

We are so grateful to everyone who supported us while my sister was in the hospital. Thanks to your prayers and kindness, she is finally home and slowly getting better.🙏💗
But now, we are facing a desperate situation. Our landlord has given us only two weeks to pay the rent of $1,500 or we will have nowhere to go. The weather is bitterly cold, my elderly parents cannot withstand it, and my sister is still too weak to face any stress.😔💔
We don’t know what else to do, and we are turning to you with hope in our hearts. Every single donation, no matter how small, will help us keep a roof over our heads and give my family safety and warmth. Please, help us today , your support can save us from the streets and give us hope in this very difficult time.🙏😔💔
