Anonymous asked: For one crazy moment I thought that drawing of Heydrich was actually a decorated cake. Which I'd probably eat. Must go lie down now.

Okay Anon. Okay.

Anonymous asked: Here's a LOL for third picture, bottom left hand corner: "Hellooooo ladies! Care to ride the wild Heyd?"
Clever anon. Clever.
Let’s have some LOLs.
These are probably repeats, but I kind of don’t care.
hello-heydi asked: I think that this magic amount of family photos just make from people minds potato soup, partially: totally understand that. Anyway, still have hope that Heydrichs family wouldn't be scammed by Cvancara and company, because well, this guy is not very pleasant and it's not first behaviour of him like that... Unfortunately, he is not very good historian. He is not historian at all.
I’m pretty sure that if they do get scammed, this little corner of the internet will happily rise up in defense. Especially with my hard-earned knowledge of copyright law. ;)
But thanks for being an awesome human being.
hello-heydi asked: Bah, heard the same about this whole book so I completly don't understand why such big drama exploded about photos, especially that the most likely this book is not gonna be release in English and will be hard to get outside Czech Republic, so better to give people chance to see it than hide it and behave like Gollum "my precious, my precious". I ordered one copy, so if someone would like to see photos then just ask me here on tumblr in next two weeks (release is 21th so after that date).

Thank you!!!
Wow, what weird downs and now ups this book is causing.
“Not bad.”

How cute~ We get to see him as a family man.
Just thought I’d let you know that a friend of mine who is a friend of Heider Heydrich says that Heider is not at all happy with the re release of his mother’s book, despite participating in it. It seems that the final chapter is very critical of his mother. I have a feeling that the reporter who interviewed him might have left out the fact that she was going to give her own slant on what Lina knew and didn’t know.
Just a tidbit I thought a Heydrich history person might enjoy.
This would appear to be the best of Heydrich’s profile shots.

Sorry about the cross posts again…. occasionally Admin Grimm manages to mix up which blog to post to and showers the FuckYeahHeydrich blog with personal thoughts.
Anonymous asked: all opinions relating to our followers concerns, so long as they’re nicely worded and not a long paragraph of ‘fuck you you fucking fucks.’- funny cause you did not response for my reply about IP law ;) too hard to take?
Alright, if you insist. Although I must respond in kind that you did not reply to my invitation to take this out of anon and out of this blog’s posts.
While I am no law scholar, I am able to look up the definition of intellectual property on the World Intellectual Property Organizations website. It states that “Intellectual property (IP) refers to creations of the mind: inventions, literary and artistic works, and symbols, names, images, and designs used in commerce. IP is divided into two categories: Industrial property, which includes inventions (patents), trademarks, industrial designs, and geographic indications of source; and Copyright, which ncludes literary and artistic works such as novels, poems and plays, films, musical works, artistic works such as drawings, paintings, photographs and sculptures, and architectural designs. Rights related to copyright include those of performing artists in their performances, producers of phonograms in their recordings, and those of broadcasters in their radio and television programs. “
Yes, photographs are in there. However, upon further investigation, and a reading of their very nice overview on “IP in regular life”, it didn’t say anything a family photo album. I’m pretty sure that the Heydrich family photo album is not protected under IP laws. Even if it was at some point, unless they renewed the copyright, it would have expired by now.
Either way, I am not making a profit off of POTENTIALLY posting these pictures sometime in the abstract future. I am not insulting nor tarnishing the Heydrich family name. I have already posted a number of photos of Reinhard Heydrich that I don’t want to count, I haven’t made a penny off of it, and all I did was share things that already existed. I have already said that I would be more than willing to credit the source material and provide citations, under every picture if necessary! And if Herr Heydrich wants me to take this blog down, and he has a good reason for me to do so, I will be happy to do so.
However, I’d like to point out that we’re arguing about a hypothetical. This HASN’T HAPPENED YET. My original ‘call’ was a call, yes, but it wasn’t a very serious one, nor do I expect anyone to give me these pictures. All this was was a good debate exercise.
I could keep debating with you, but it would grow pointless because I’d just keep repeating myself, and I have an analysis of the film Waltz With Bashir to do. I really hope that you can set aside this hypothetical event that may or may not happen, and that we can continue on our separate ways, peacefully.

Unless, of course, you want to tell me why this bothers you so much. I’m really curious now.

Admin Grimm out.
Anonymous asked: I apologize for being dickish and coming on too harsh with my comment re fair use. I am blunt to a fault. Carry on the good work.
Nah, not dickish at all gentleanon! I just wanted to make it clear that *I* wasn’t trying to be unfair and gang up on the other gentleanon. Your comment was fine.
And thank you, we appreciate it.
