Now I may not personally subscribe to the idea, but you know, Megatron now having golden horns in this Megabull form is not helping Bumblebee beat the “child of divorce” allegations
Assuming this is supposed to be Megatron and not a separate character. I mean I hope it’s the same guy
#I don’t know I’ve had this thought for a while and then I put the picture in my drafts for it#I think it’s kind of funny#and I’ve seen some people make Bee Megatron and Optimus’ kid#though I’m not 100% if they mean bio or adopted#so that’s where this came from#I need to know more about Megabull I swear#I think his design’s pretty cool too#transformers#transformers cyberworld#megatron#megabull#bumblebee#random stuff

Does anyone else automatically size themselves up with people their age and look for ways that you’re inferior to them? Just me? Ok….
#the reasons why I think like this are…complicated#honestly a lot to do with the#adhd struggle bus#surprise surprise the neurodevelopmental condition has overarching and very specific effects on my life and how I interact with the world#of course disclaimer that this weird thing I have is not inherent to adhd#but maybe is a way of thinking I developed in part due to it#this is a me thing if anyone else relates to this fine but you don’t have to#I think thi oversharing series is a way for me to microdose journaling#I try to get into journaling but I have way too many thoughts#it’s all or nothing either I write nothing or I spend 3 hours documenting everything thought I had that week#I think a lot of this has to do with my persistent issues with time management#and I’ve tried to hide this struggle in a lot of ways because ngl it’s embarrassing#to the point where I held myself back from doing certain things I wanted to do because ‘hmm could you handle it though you’re already#struggling to manage in school with the bare minimum. maybe you just suck’#and this is probably because I went to a college prep school so yeah#there were 14 year olds taking multivariable calculus and people with various talents#to say that I was intimidated would be an understatement. it’s strange because while in middle school my self esteem was decent it dropped#in high school like how stock prices dropped in the beginning of Covid#even though I was like an ok kid I somehow convinced myself that I was dumb and inept#all because I struggled with one area in my life#honestly I’m not sure if I can paint a clear picture of this time. for one#memories are complex. but I do remember feeling that way and needing a lot of support to be hyped up#fuck#I’m now remembering how my aunt used to be that person. she was my cheerleader growing up and practically raised me in childhood#she passed away from cancer right when I turned 15#shit I’m crying now#during this time in my life I needed a lot of reassurance since I took any small failure as a sign from the universe that I was indeed inept#it was her and my middle school friend who used to rant to me about dragon ball and pewdiepie that hyped me up#my parents were a mixed bag. unfortunately they too sorta overreacted to things like getting a B in math. they used to make me feel like#uchiha-gaeshi overshares

“Made the right choice then.”
Fanart of @yeyinde ‘s cyber-Price from Neon Medusa !!! I intended to render this fully but I got sick so this hardline version will have to do 😭 pls pretend something visually stimulating is happening in the background I got halfway through this drawing and realized I don’t know how to draw backgrounds OR men so
#i’ve been a anxious to post this bc i’m not super happy with how it turned out#it’s been done for like three days but#this cold is kicking my ass and I figure im not gonna be able to repaint this for a long while#I thank god and google dot com for pictures of takemura bc I had NO idea what a grumpy old military man would wear in a cyberpunk setting

I work as the person in an amusement park who watches the children who get lost. Here’s some advice. This also applies to any mentally disabled adults that are under your care. Keep in mind that many places will not look for a minor ages 13-17 unless it is close to closing or they are disabled, as corporate considers it a strain on resources and employee use.
1. Teach them your phone number. Best gift you can give them. I’m not supposed to have my phone out at work but I can cut down dependent’s being-lost-time by probably 400% if I can contact you. It also assures the children That We Are Doing Something and that They Are Helpful and Smart. If your dependent has a poor memory, apparently writing your phone number in sharpie and then covering it in nail polish makes it stay all day, even if they’re sweaty or getting in the water. I haven’t tested this but I’ve heard a lot of moms recommend it. I’ve also seen bracelets with little plates or the beads saying the phone number.
Addendum: your dependent may tell you that they know your phone number, but they actually only know your passcode. True story. This summer has been a lot better, but last summer exactly one child the entire season knew his mom’s phone number.
2. Acknowledge that dependent’s memories are faulty, especially in new places. If you tell them to meet you in X spot or that your stuff is all in Y place, they may not remember where it is or remember how to get there.
3. All dependents, but especially little ones, have shit time sense. They might find your stuff, wait there for a minute or two, and truly believe that they’ve been there for an hour. Half the small kids that are brought to me are ones who *know* where their stuff is, but haven’t seen an adult they know personally in 5 minutes, so they’re going to panic.
4. Don’t take naps!!! And don’t let your dependent go anywhere you can’t go or at least go where you catch them at the end!!! Yes you’re staring at the play structure your dependent entered, but can you see them? No? Then there’s a good chance they went elsewhere. So many of the littler kids that are brought to me are brought by genuine, good-hearted strangers who see lost children and take them by the hand. Away from the spot you’re napping in front of/staring vaguely at.
5. This might just be something from my work, but we will not call dependent’s descriptions over the loudspeaker. This is because if an asshole were to see your dependent, hear the description, know it’s a lost dependent, and decide to steal it, they can then use the excuse, “I know where your guardian is! Come with me!” And then lead them out of the park or toss the dependent over their shoulder. Do you know how many crying and screaming dependents leave the location every day? A lot!!! We’re a fun location!!! We’re not going to know if the dependent is screaming because they don’t want to leave or if a stranger is taking them away. We might call the description over the loudspeaker if it’s past closing time and the dependent still isn’t found. But before that, we will only report it over secure radios across the park.
6. Tell a park worker right away. Preferably someone with a radio. Even if you spot the dependent within the next minute, that means the dependent will have less being-lost time. Especially if we already have the dependent with, you guessed it, me. Also please tell us when you find the dependent.
7. Take a picture of your depdendent at the start of the day! That way security guards can have a good idea of what to look for. One mother told me her daughter was blonde and showed me a picture. Her hair color looked brown to me, but then I knew what to look for in the crowd.
8. Keep at least one person in your group in one spot at all times, especially if you don’t have access to your phone or forgot to give out your phone number to the guards. That way they can find you if they pick up the dependent. If you are the only person in your group, then PLEASE stay in one place or at least stay with ONE security guard. It sucks for the dependent if they can’t find you right away even if the both of you are looking for each other and a guard is helping them. You are NOT helping if you panic and run around. And keep your goddamn phone on you and answer calls from unknown numbers!!!!! God. This is a good time to do that.
9. If you lose your dependent in an attraction like the lazy river at a water park, and you have that ONE person staying in place, then this is what you can do with 1+ mobile people.
A. If only one person can be spared to be mobile, have them pick a spot and stay right there, watching the river go by. Eventually, if the dependent is in the river, they’ll go by.
B. If you have two people that can be mobile, both start at the same place in the river and go opposite directions. If you meet up again without spotting the dependent, well, they’re not there.
C. If you have more than 2 people, you can do B but also station different adults at the lazy river entrances/exits.
10. Don’t blame the dependent! Even if they ran away and/or are pissy that you’re upset once you all reunite, trust me, there’s a 99% chance they’re upset too. Yes, this is a good time to have a serious conversation with them. Yes, if this is a repeated problem, and/or you warned them you’d leave the park if this occurred, you should not back down. But also - they’re dependents. They’re not stupid, and they should be told consequences and dangers so they can make good decisions, but they will never have the adult/guardian perspective that you do. Be kind.
Also please for my sake teach them if they’re brought to someone like me, that it’s THEIR job to be safe and listen to me while us park workers look for you. It’s YOUR job to find the dependent, not the dependent’s job to find you. I had a six year old little girl genuinely toddler-howl at me because she wanted to go look for her mom. I’ve never before heard a kid her age howl like that. I can trick kids out of crying 9/10 times but howling came as a surprise lmao. I think I can manage it now that I’ve experienced it but damn.
Also make sure those kids are DRINKING. Being in a water park is NOT the same as drinking water. They should be drinking every 15 minutes at LEAST, I am NOT kidding.
Also if I call you to tell you your kid is here, please don’t call or text me back after you have the kid. I’m sure other places have phones for these types of things but the only one I have is my personal phone. And I am happy to get the kid off my hands and into your arms, but I’m using my personal phone so plz. Don’t call me back. Absolutely call me if you need directions to my ‘office’ in the park. Don’t call or text me after. I have stories about that hoo boy but this post is already long.
#I am not exaggerating when I say howling#not in a wolf way more like a howler monkey if you have no idea what human toddler cries sound like#I like kids of all ages but there’s a reason why#I’m not going to teach elementary school#I am the person in the *place I work* where if a kid is lost#the staff brings the kid to me until the parents are found#so like. I’m never going to see these kids at their best#I wish I could just hug them but I’m barely allowed to hold their hand if I’m escorting them to get water#this time of year their emotions are heightened by the fact that they’re almost certainly dehydrated#but if they’re a flight risk I do NOT want to risk losing the kid#so I have to wait until#a coworker comes by to get them some water sometimes#the howler girl = this kid#this kid was reunited with her mom without too much time going by thank god#she was a huge fucking flight risk omg#she desperately wanted to go find her mom and I’m like#GIRL you are the lost six year old ITS YOUR MOM’S JOB TO FIND YOU!!! Your job is to stay safe!!!#and color this pretty picture oh god please look back at the coloring page instead of calling upon the hounds of hell#I like to assure every kid that is brought to me that#1. mom’s (or whoever) not going to leave without you (sometimes this is a lie judging from the parents.still very important to tell kids thi#2. they did the right thing asking for an adult’s help#3. as they are literally a kid it’s not their fault they’re lost (again a little debatable with the older kids but still they’re minors)(so#I tell them all this)#4. it’s their job to stay safe while we find your mom#5. now do you want some water?#it’s more obvious in the pale kids but I’ve had so many Black and Brown kids come up to me the last couple days looking positively pink#those kids needed water. so I try to get everyone water#it pisses off my coworkers but idgaf. everyone has a legal right to water in this state esp in the summer#and even if they didn’t#fuck you I’m stealing it. these kids need water

Ultrakill Headcanon:
V1’s blood absorbing armour plating, and V1 as a whole, has one major weakness.
All machines with the possible exception of some very old models like the Gutterman can self repair, in or out of combat, but that it a lot of power and by extension blood to do, especially if they’re trying to repair damage quickly, and for most machines refueling is something that is best done out of combat, since most refueling processes involve talking blood from whatever source they can find (usually a corpse or something), opening a fuel port somewhere on their body and pouring the blood in. Even for some of the most advanced machines it’s a moment where they simply CANNOT be in combat, because it’s time consuming and distracting enough for it be deadly if something else gets the drop on them.
A major point of V1 is that their thin armour plating absorbs any fresh blood spilled on it so they can refuel and repair themselves mid-combat, skipping the process of having to extract blood from a corpse and “drink” it while leaving yourself open to attack. HOWEVER, the major problem comes in the phrase “fresh blood”.
V1 can absorb blood through their armour, but that blood NEEDS to be fresh. If the blood is left to sit for even the slightest bit too long, if it gets the chance to coagulate, even for a few seconds, it gets too thick for V1 to absorb. They could still fuel themselves with it, any machine could, but since V1 doesn’t have a fuel port of any kind they NEED to take in blood through their plating.
That’s why they can’t heal from blood taken from corpses or any of the decorative rivers of blood seen in the Prelude or the blood fountains in Heresy, it’s too stale and thickened for their Plating to take it in. V1 needs the blood to either be fresh from a living thing and absorbed almost immediately, or fresh from a machine that’s already been using the blood for power and has effectively “refreshed” it by doing so, also absorbed immediately.
Leave a machine in a room full of corpses and it’ll last a good while refueling itself off the corpses until it either runs out or the blood rots and decays to the point where it’s completely unusable, depending on the machines fuel efficiency. Leave V1 in a room full of corpses and they’ll run out of power extremely quickly in comparison because they physically cannot get the abundant fuel all around them into their fuel tank.
#Ultrakill#headcanon#this headcanon makes me wonder#would blood thinner be like#a mechanical repair substance?#Like a machine has a problem where it’s fueling systems just aren’t working properly#and the problem is that the blood it’s using has thickened to the point where it can’t be properly processed and made into power#so some engineers grabs a gallon jug of some stuff labeled “INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH BLOOD THINNER” and pours it into the machine’s fuel tank#idk I’ve just had that picture in my head for a while now

my brain after finding two monkees records i already have: oh my GOD!! the store owner should give me those free because I already HAVE THEM and the ONES I HAVE ARE IN BETTER CONDITION.
like sorry brain. this man does not care about your record collection. he’d only care about it if you were SELLING IT TO HIM.
#the monkees#i just got so excited to find monkees#i always dig through for monkees but i think i’ve bought all the good ones already#this is the local store where i found the fnb 45s#in short: i need to learn that i can’t just HAVE every monkees record i see#i just love the monkees and love hoarding old beat up objects#i could’ve haggled him for a price but i had another thing i wanted to buy and i definitely didn’t have enough on me for what he would’ve#charged#(though he is always nice to me)#(he brought out a beautiful picture sleeve monkees 45 for me from the back a while ago)

The worst part of using the names of people you know for your characters is if you have a falling out with one of them and now you can’t change the character’s name because it’s theirs now. And you can’t change their personality because that just doesn’t work for the story. Pain in the ass.
#it’s such a pain#I have a lot of coworker friend with interesting last names#and I’ve used more than one of those last names in my story#then I had a falling out with one of the coworker friends#who’s last name I used for one of my main characters#this character has to stay alive for the entire book#not sure about other books in the series but he has to stay alive for the entire firet one#he’s meant to be a sarcastic but loving person and I can’t change his character because then he wouldn’t mesh with the other mains#and it wouldn’t end up as heartbreaking when one of the other mains turns#so here I am#writing this adorable fun loving sarcastic wholesome little guy#while I can’t even look at a picture of the person who’s name I used because it makes me mad

Can people on the internet stop actively wishing for others to die 😭😭 like are you fucking kidding me
#mypost#titanic#discourse#I’ve had the tag ‘discourse’ blocked since 2017 I can’t believe I’m contributing to this bs#get over ur black-and-white morality and stop cheering on horror type death#i think I’m more pissed abt this bc in the picture of those ppl it looked like one was a younger guy#one of the billionaires kid#and as a child of a dad who got some material power#the constant pressure while being in their company is insane#it’s almost impossible to make your own morals-defined decisions when around them#unless I want to stop talking to my dad forever and loose his financial help#then the social justice values I’m trynna impart on him go slow asf
