I didn’t want to have to make a post about this, but i’m pretty pissed off at the moment.
I’m sure for people who have looked up “Mystery Skulls Animated” they’ve seen this 3 video compilation result that’s very high up in the search results. We have already sent out a copyright strike since last night so i’m hoping that will be the end of it, but if it’s not, please do not give this person who uploaded our videos your views, they have edited out all our credits and the video already has over 500k views which is absolutely stolen views and potential extra revenue for our VERY SMALL production team even though they have not monetize that stolen video. They also had a comment pinned earlier (before changing it) from people who thought they had made our videos. To the person who did this, I know you’ve seen our comments on your video to take it down and are actively ignoring that and gloating about how many new youtube subscribers you got on your twitter page. Putting one link in the description doesn’t absolve you of guilt that you stole our content and that was after people badgered you to do it.
You’re an asshole.
(BTW we do have a playlist made up for the videos so this makes me even angrier.)
Also one thing I forgot to mention, this reupload has effectively stunted growth of views on ALL 3 VIDEOS, especially for Hellbent which was at a steady pace until this upload happened. I made sure to check. So we’re barely gaining anything in comparison at the moment. Even with a frickin’ ready made playlist which is already super convenient. >->
I started Pikmin 2 again and I hadn’t thought about it before but why the hell are the creatures only worth a handful of Pokos at best? Does Hocotate not value discovery? Like “Hey, here’s multiple specimens of a previously undocumented species from another planet.” “Cool, I’ll give you five bucks for one.”

All promised that 100% of their plastic packaging would be reused, recycled or composted within seven years.
The aim is to combat plastic waste pollution, which is harming the seas.
The
Ellen MacArthur Foundation, which is behind the campaign, said if
current trends continue, there could be more plastic than fish in the
seas by 2050.
The foundation was launched in 2010 by the record-breaking
yachtswoman to improve environmental standards, particularly on plastic
use, after she was shocked by the level of plastic pollution she
observed on her round the world sailings.
An estimated 8.3 billion
tonnes of plastic had been produced since the early 1950s, with 60% of
it ending up in landfills or the natural environment.
And while
packaging, such as bottles, yoghurt pots and wrappers, is not the sole
source of plastic pollution, it represents the biggest use of plastic.
The move was welcomed by environmental campaigners, Friends of the Earth.
Friends
of the Earth plastics campaigner Julian Kirby said: “It’s encouraging
that more firms and governments are listening to public demands to curb
plastic waste and are pledging to act. A global movement on this issue
is urgently needed.”
According to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation,
signatories to the pledge – which include big firms like Burberry and
Mars, as well as governments and NGOs – have made commitments to:
Eliminate “problematic or unnecessary” plastic packaging and move from single-use to reusable packaging by 2025
Ensure all plastic packaging can be “easily and safely” recycled or composted
Increase the amounts of plastics reused or recycled into new packaging or products.
One signatory, Marmite-maker Unilever, told the BBC it recycles about
two thirds of the plastic it produces but has been cutting plastic
waste for some time.
In February, stopped sealing its pyramid-shaped PG Tips teabags with polypropylene, using corn starch instead.
‘Circular approach’
It
is also looking at ways of reusing black Tresemme shampoo bottles and
getting recycled plastic into Hellmann’s mayonnaise bottles.
Currently Hellmann’s bottles can be recycled but contain no recycled plastic.
“The
aim is to move towards a circular approach, where you are only using
recycled content and you work toward eliminating single-use packaging,”
Mr Blanchard told the BBC.
“We are seeing consumers wanting
fully recyclable solutions. In the next few years people who use our
products will be looking for packs that are recyclable or use recycled
content, and we will be telling them on the packaging when that’s the
case.”
Dame Ellen MacArthur, founder of the MacArthur Foundation,
said the pledge offered a “clear vision for what we need to create a
circular economy for plastic”.
Signatories have agreed to publish
annual data on their progress, with targets become “increasingly
ambitious” over the coming years.
