How much for eyelids and hooves?

*shrug* chicken is cheaper than tongue and stomach were I live at least. Beef is very expensive. The cheapest I've seen it not on like, "spoils in 5 minutes" clearance is ~ $3.49 a pound. Bones (marrow, soup, etc) are expensive even.

There are no meats in the entire US under $1 a pound I'm pretty sure. $1.99 per pound chicken is the cheapest anything you will find like, anywhere.
Depending on the size of the animal, a pair of deer nuts might fit the bill. One set's usually under a buck.

Deep, deep frozen and heavily discounted lovely ground beef that's more fat than meat you can soooooometimes find for under/around $1/lb, if you're "lucky."

She'd be happy to know that a shitload of states reinstated the strict work rules, effectively loving over millions of people who can't afford food! :)

Let's remember the time when Fox claimed that poor people weren't "really" poor because they had fridges. Apparently one of the downsides of asking Baby Boomer Republicans to describe the problem with the poor is that they still think everyone uses iceboxes and cans their own tomato preserves for five hours a day.

Googling around, "50% beef trimmings" are .70 $/lb but even last year were over a dollar.

e: wholesale chickens meet the mark too but that's a fair bit of inedible pieces.

I think it was established that those things were being developed before Slenderman existed. Either way, they're not terribly similar beyond "both tall and mostly black," which isn't a lot to stand on.

I haven't delved into it but from what I understand he holds a copyright for the character, so he can veto projects, but he doesn't actually control the uh, right to option, I don't know what the official terminology is because IA definitely NAL. So I don't know if he's legally entitled to profits or if those go to the other person, although I guess they probably have some sort of understanding/agreement so chances are higher than the initial estimated 0%.

Hopefully some lurker turns out to be an expert on copyright law and helps me out here
Not an expert, but I've read up a bit on it, and I'm pretty sure if you hold the copyright on something then you get to decide who can use it and under what conditions, including whether or not they have to pay you and how much. If multiple people share copyright then they're all entitled to a share of any profits, but they can't stop each other from using the IP in any way they like.

The problem in cases like this is that if someone goes ahead and uses your stuff without permission, it's then on you to sue them to get them to stop or to get any money, and if you're an ordinary person and they're a giant corporation, it's probably not worth even trying because they can just keep you tied up in court until you run out of money and can't go any further, and then they win by default. The only way you'd get anywhere is if you can make them look bad enough that it affects their profits, but with stuff like this there's a general perception that stuff published on the internet is basically public domain, so the company isn't likely to take much flak for stealing it.

As well as Microsoft being too big to go after, this also sounds like it could easily be protected as parody.

Here is someone from my old university writing a letter to the editor complaining that the university isn't doing enough for white men.

http://m.dailyegyptian.com/opinion/article_d60c1266-0b1b-11e6-aa8a-7b56b676553d.html?mode=jqm

The context of the article is that there have been a spike of off campus, non-student related shootings. This prompted a racist video to be released on YouTube condemning the suspect using racial slurs.

So there's this new Facebook page that came out like weeks ago that's against a student movement on my campus.



The header image is our movement at a student protest that made national news. Since our group is mainly comprised of BDS movement members, BLM movement members, Socialist Groups, and (mostly) radical feminists I get why some people would be wary to support us. This page however posts memes and lovely Youtube videos to 'combat' us.





https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iR2nh_XmfkA

Icing on the cake is that they submitted an op-ed to our student paper to combat a previous op-ed in support of our movement. It's kind of disgusting, and they posted it on Facebook when our student paper wouldn't publish it.

It's an Anti-privatization movement. What's disgusting is that it suggests that a "diversity of melanin" is less important than a "diversity of thought," but that may have been one of their facebook posts and not the op-ed. Ohio State's administration is basically privatizing our university (and cutting professor positions to keep enough revenue to do so) while surveys repeatedly show students and staff don't want our resources to leave OSU (for example, here's a survey released in march). They're even trying to shutdown our on campus power-plant just to get a cut of money from AEP.

I dunno, maybe it's just me being annoyed with reactionaries.
