#I meant as in like not a bot

Hi I am new

[somerandomcockroach]

Okay, but decepticon Prowl didn't plan and prepare and properly defect from the decpticons, he was thrown out.

The ask that mentioned him being a bad shot got me thinking.

We rarely see Prowl as a bad shot, so either one of two things are going on

1.) Prowl is just not emtionally invested in this fight and is running too many numbers for something else but he has to be here against his will

2.) Prowl is intentionally shooting certain deceptions because "they threaten the future of the decepticons" (they threaten and beat up Prowl)

So after enough "bad shots" the grunts of the decepticon base Prowl was stationed on (as barricade) beat him up, and throw him out. Prowl is annoyed by this because obviously he is important but he can't reveal himself without ruining his cover. So he goes planet hitch-hiking to get back to Megatron and obviously get reinstated and protection.

While planet hopping, "Barricade" meets Jazz who is currently under the name of Meiser since he is infiltrating and taking a look at some decepticon territory. Barricade does not know that Meiser has been following him since he got thrown out. Barricade also does not know that Meiser has his suspicions about who he is. Afterall, there aren't a lof of praxians left in the deception forces, and this one has some dumb gold paint on his cheveron that has already started to flake and show red in these harsh outdoor conditions.

Barricade does think that Meiser is either an autobot spy (since he is not accounted for in any of Prowl's databases and battlefield simulations), or has a major glitch in his logic circuits that got him kicked out and now desperate for any social interaction (which must be the reason why he is hanging around Barricade, since no one ever actually willingly hung out around him before, and especially nobody hangs out with Prowl).

Things keep happening that try to kill "Barricade". But luckly clumsy Meiser is right there to "accidentally" shoot the problem right in the processor. Barricade does not remember Meiser having a gun on him. Or a knife. Or that feral of a smile. But anyways he has places to be and a mech to see.

Prowl intends on turning in Meiser-the-spy or just ordering the death of Meiser-the-idiot once he gets back to Megatron. Especially since through this adventure, Prowl has learned that Meiser will listen to a long thought out and perfect plan, then immidiately go do his own thing, so he can't be used as some disposable pawn in one of Prowls plans.

Evnetually Prowl gets back to Megatron. It is unfortunate that this regrouping happens on an open battle-field, but Prowl predicts that the decepticons will have to make a hastly retreat in 27.8 joors and does not want to miss his ride home. He expects to be welcomed by Megatron, updated on all battle field data, and then sent to the safety of the back of the lines to go sip a cube and win this battle.

Except Megatron has noticed that decepticons tend to have more friendly fire where ever he sends Prowl. And Prowl has already given him predictions and battle maps and troop movement plans for the next 100 vorn. And honestly? Megatron has wanted to punch Prowl for a while now.

So he does just that. One moment Prowl is clearing his vocalizer to get his attention while he is OBVIOSLY busy beating up an autobot. And the next moment Prowl is 12 feets away with a large fist-sized crater in his chest. Serves that nerd right.

Prowl goes offline. Not from the injury. But from the glitch that spawned when Megatron didn't welcome him back and start a much needed debreif.

Anyways, Prowl wakes up in the autobot medbay.

HELP, oh you all really don't like Prowl and want him punched ahagsgga

In my mind it's hard to turn events to that. You see, I think Megatron would treat Prowl like autobots treat Ratchet. Megatron is ruthless in the way he treats his warriors, they fight for "freedom" so someone's life is worth it. Prowl always gives 99% successful plan with minimal risks. And these plans work because Megatron accepts them. Decepticons can say nothing but they hate "Prowl" behind all these plans, because they can see that they are turning in even more bugs than they were before. Before it looked at least like a live or die battle. Now it is a straight order of dying in their cases. But hey, ahah, who is this "Prowl"? There is only Barricade and a possibility of his hidden identity leaking, it's just Megatron can't keep his optics on him 24/7 so making him second identity is a good way of preventing him from instant death. I actually want to think of the ways Starscream could switch his attention to Prowl and not like him because he can't be bribed. "With such tactician even I can be a leader" and Prowl just "-_-".

Prowl is left without voice, tracking, comms, everything is done to not let Megatron find him, but he will search for him even if everyone tells him he is dead. Prowl just need to fix everything and not let others find any info on him and somehow leave to send a signal. So I bet there are much more layers to all of that. For Megatron to want to punch him he needs to be like Starscream or be a Sentinel Prime.

Pffht, imagine you see a very beaten up Decepticon, clearly beaten up by his own people. Everything that allows to track you is ripped off. What does it mean? They wanted to get rid of him while making it look like he died of accident in the end, they got all they needed from him and left him to suffer. Means he had something valuable within him and clearly will be more anticipating in the interrogation with autobots. Revenge takes a place, wouldn't it? So even if Jazz is in a good condition and finds him, he clearly will bring him to Autobot base right away. Prowl will not search the way on his own, he will be thrown out where it is impossible to get out by his own, Junkion, so his priority also will be to get saved even if go with autobots with the possibility of revealing his identity and he will make everything to not let it happen

Why are vetted accounts sending people stuff like this.

I mean it's clearly copy-pasted and sent to multiple people but this isn't even a donations ask. Imma guess the reason people aren't responding is because you're accusing them of not doing enough for Palestine and sending it to multiple people who you clearly don't check because I've been posting about and for Palestine since oct 7th when I learned about it.

Also yes he is looking for donations, you can check his account and find it. Why are you sending this guilt trippy stuff to people and accusing them of not caring enough? You don't know me? You send these to multiple people so your clearly not checking the account in question. This dose nothing to help you personally or the Palestinian cause, it just pisses people off and makes them question vetters.

yet another post that is full of doodles one day i'll draw a nice piece again

[genericpuff]

every time i try to go easier on rachel and give her the benefit of the doubt, i find shit like this

i was literally just trying to wrap up the hades x thanatos conversation text edit that i've been posting over on my IG and felt like adding a couple extra panels so i went back to this episode (ep 215) to try and find panels of hades and hecate talking that i could segue out of the end part of the hades x thanatos conversation

and i found this

and i was like "oh yeah they visualize the doorbell ringing with a literal bell, i guess that works-"

that bell isn't rendered in rachel's usual style, it's very cell shady with zero texture

but no, no, don't do this puff, you're just being paranoid, it's just a silly little bell, are you really jumping to the conclusion that rachel and her team didn't draw this just because it looks a little off???

just throw it in google reverse image search so you can put this to rest and prove to yourself that it is, in fact, just a drawing of a bell, i don't need to be reading too much into it-

OH COME ON-

Painty's and Bot's representation are both pretty different and unique in their own ways.

Meanwhile Paintbrush's representation might portray the struggles of not being seen for who you are, and how it hurts that some people don't realize that, it is still good representation. Like, hell, they even said it two times in the series, the second time explicitely. PB came a long way and finally others respect them for who they are. And yeah, they're more on the androgynus side or something, but that's them. They're unique because of that. Not similar to Bot.

What I did see is that people complained mostly over Bot's eyelashes too and how they were the exact same thing which... isn't true? I already explained Painty but Bot's case is completely different.

Like, Bot was built to be the replacement of someone, but even then they weren't a perfect replacement. If you notice this, even before Bot knew the truth, they were kinder and more approachable in comparison with Bow, they had those differences that let you know that something was up.

And, hell! Bot was heartbroken over the fact that they were never a real person to begin with! That they are the copy of someone else! They even told Test Tube that "you are very lucky, because at the end of the day, mephone4 will get you all back, but I'll be stuck here, in a body that isn't mine, BECAUSE I AM NOT BOW!"

And Test Tube starts to help them to change and feel more comfortable about their body- about themselves.

Like, their legs and arms being able to expand/grow? That was because they wanted it to be like that!

Their voice changing? Heck! They even got a more "femenine" sounding voice! Because that's what they wanted!

Them changing from pink to green? That's because they wanted that.

All of that is because Bot wanted to be themselves.

Not Bow.

And they're still learning about themselves too, they even changed the shape of their body, they have the shape of a butterfly now thanks to Balloon and Nickel too.

They're both good representation because of that, I'd say, because they're both different stories

And, Paintbrush KNOWS who they are, and Bot is still discovering themselves, they're still learning,

And I think that's a beautiful thing.

Just wanted to thank you for all your no music scenes! Truly highlight during this hiatus! 🩵🩵🩵

( Also if you have the time the buddie confessions ending scene? I know they don't talk in it but I wonder what's it like without the music )

hi! thank you! that's so sweet of you to say, it means a lot 🫶🏻

unfortunately because of the lack of dialogue in that scene, it's not really possible to remove the music in the same way, because there is a lot of music on all the audio channels. i have tried and did manage to make the music not as dominant and bring out the other sounds (door opening/closing etc) a little bit, but it really didn't make that much of a difference for me to think that anyone besides me (who have listened to this clip maybe 100 times now) will be able to tell 😅

I think it's funny when robots in fiction are just,,, super old and they outlive multiple generations of humans and are kinda treated as functionally immortal but irl tech is like "Your car is 20 years old???" or "I get a new smart phone every two years!"

Lemme see old ass bots who are mocked for being all ancient and outmoded and then when someone asks "How old are you??" it turns out they're like five.

I used to have an idea that I could get an investigative podcast to look into the scam gofundmes and find out where they are all coming from, so that it could finally break the spell they have on tumblr's userbase and increase scam literacy. We all agree that money should be going to fundraisers with a high chance that the money will be sent by the trusted organiser to a person in Gaza. Right? So sifting out scams is a really good idea as it will increase donations to the legit ones. Right??

But recently I realised it wouldn't fucking work. They would just say it was a huge conspiracy. Look at what happened with the Russian bots. No one has ever heard from the 'activists' who were removed before or since...if you know anything about tumblr you know that when real people get removed for an unjust reason, they come right back with a new username, especially if they feel they have something important to say. But that never happened with these 'activists ' (in quotes because the blogs they ran weren't really about activism, it was social justice shitposting of the kind very popular on tumblr c2015). And despite that, plus the fact that actual investigative journalism work was done to identify them, a good portion of tumblr still thinks it was a huge injustice, a conspiracy to silence powerful and necessary activism work.

So I think that idea is a lost cause. I'm just going to keep telling people to look at the organiser and beneficiary section till I'm blue in the face.

I’m Salome from Gaza, and I’m sorry for reaching out like this, but my family and I are in urgent need. Our home was destroyed in the war, and we’ve been displaced several times with no safe place to turn. I’m battling Type 1 Diabetes and can’t afford insulin, while my mother needs treatment for kidney failure outside Gaza. Any small donation would help us survive and get the care we need—I need around $150 for my medication. A friend outside Gaza is helping with the donations, and I’m happy to share more details if needed. Thank you.

Didja read this?

Yeah. No sane person in need would say something like this while seeing this description in my blog, letting you know that imma assume anyone who sends these things to my inbox are bots and block them. Way to confirm you're a bot, idiot.

[yumeurl]

⚡️🐍⚡️ is so hard to like cuz ud wanna chill and think abt how to make them work but some of the ppl in it are so annoying that they sadly make u think of other pairs instead😭 like genuinely idc if u depict harry as the bottomest submissive omega ever or daddy dom top tom, if i have anything to say abt that ill talk abt it to my friends in private, cuz u do are allowed to rant without attacking ppl yakno. but i do have problems when they go in places they shouldnt be in (like those who like botTom or even switch ⚡️🐍⚡️ or even lit w a neighboring ship like ⚡️🍏) or annoyingly vague in twt

like bro 1. ure in hp how are u taking things so seriously for a book series w 84935 problems 2. 🐍⚡️ in particular has so many great artists and writers are u rly gonna spend ur time on things u Know u dislike and then shit on it when u discover that its still a thing u dislike
