Dear Transformers Fandom,

Anybody else getting spammed to hell and back with non related posts flooding the transformers tag? I'm getting everything from generative AI (ew), p0rn bots (double ew), to completely random mass posts of like nature photography but tagged with transformers and other fandoms.

I hate having to use the report/block system so often just to be able to get the giant robot fix for the day.

Sincerely,

A Very Tired Fellow Fan

Personal rant: I hate it so much how Clint is portrayed as an baby and idiot in our community. I developed a rational hatred against people who talk about him like that. He is a grown ass man, one of the best, deadliest and smartest agent, assassin and marksman on the planet and they portray him like that stupid clumsy idiot who can’t get anything right and Nat has to solve every issue of him. Nat has also a ton of issues of her own. She is not perfect either. And yes also Clint has to save her. They complement each other. Nat is not his mother, they are partners, soulmates for a reason. Hell as much I loved the Matt Fraction run, it literally destroyed the reputation of Clint Barton. Take him seriously as every other damn character. Fucks sakes.

Got home from work. Sprocket is acting like she needs to go out. Ask Jon when they were out last. He says an hour and a half ago. Asked him if she did anything while she was out there. He shrugged. I told him she eats things if he doesn't watch her. He grunted, didn't look up from his phone. Screaminggggggggg.

oh fuck off apple why the fuck would pdfs saved on my ipad suddenly be inaccessible and then when i look for a fix i see it’s something that’s been happening to people for at least a year and there’s still no recovery solution if they aren’t in the cloud FUCK YOU

What makes the least sense to me about Scully giving up William is that he had literally been KIDNAPPED earlier that season, but that didn’t make her think she needed to send him away for his own safety. No, it’s only after his powers are neutralized, when he’s no longer of use or interest to anyone, that’s when she decides he can’t stay. It makes no sense and it pisses me off.

My mom just tried to pull at my mask while we’re on our way to visit my dad to the hospital. “You don’t need that anymore” ?!?!? Tbfh, even if Covid wasn’t a thing, I think that wearing masks in hospitals should be the norm.

worst advice i was ever given is that pushing your butthole like your gonna shit helps you sing better. it’s not “worst” as in it was bad advice but rather because i tried it and it worked so fucking well that my breath support improved like 90% and it makes me so angry that the secret life hack to good breath support is to mime shitting yourself

Apple Pages is gaslighting me. (And maybe you.)

Recently, Apple released their new AI tools including options to proofread, rewrite, and even connect with ChatGPT (no way) in their writing app Pages. Curious, I decided to play with the rewrite tool to see how it worked. I will admit, as much as I am against AI, I can see its use as an editing tool. I certainly don’t take its rewriting suggestions verbatim, but it has made me rethink some of my writing choices—switching sentences, replacing words, etc. However, I have been finding some strange things as I slowly review the entirety of my Lost Avatar story. Words have been replaced and phrases have been added that I know I didn’t have in the original. And this is before utilizing the rewrite tool.

Now, one might argue that it’s over two-hundred thousand words. There’s no way I could possibly remember all of them exactly, and that’s true. However, I’ve read my story enough times to know when something is out-of-place or inaccurate. The proof? The final version is posted on AO3. Several times I’ve had to reference my own work to see if I had really written what is now in the final draft on my Pages.

The first time I noticed it, I dismissed it. A fluke, right? The second time, I got annoyed, which prompted this entire post.

Let me share an example:

Original:

“That’s not Mako.” Korra had seen the cold stare on his face once before. It was the same as when she had fought him while he was possessed by darkness. Except this time there was no dark energy around him. Just anger.

What I recently found in Pages:

“That’s not Mako.” Korra had seen the cold stare on his face once before. It was the same as when she had fought him while he was possessed by darkness. Except this time there was no dark energy around him. Just anger which meant she might still be able to reason with him.

See the difference? The addition of that last phrase? I have no idea where that came from and, again, this is prior to utilizing the rewrite tool.

So, a word of caution to anyone that is using Pages as a word processor or using its AI tools. You might want to review your works or make sure you’re saving a copy in another location. Otherwise, they might not be the same as you remember them.

Thank you, I deleted it. I had to reset my computer, and now Shinigami eyes isn't showing any marks except for big obvious crap like the BBC -.-

Please tell me if I reblog from a transmisic. Unless I'm doing a "ok bigot" to archive their bullshit it's not on purpose.
