I got a comment yesterday that was just such a backhanded compliment. “I just know we’ll never get more chapters but thanks for everything you wrote!”
I have the next chapter. I have notes on the following chapters. I had life things come up that gave me negative associations with the fandom, but I was planning on getting back into it. Now I’m not sure I will. If I *do* ever continue writing that fic, it’ll never go on AO3 because it’s not the first rude comment I’ve gotten on that fic and honestly the fandom was already pretty toxic when I joined it.
Why would I stay in fandom spaces where I’m viewed as if I owe the consumers content? I have other fandoms that are much MUCH kinder that I *don’t* have any negative associations with, why would I want to go back to that one, especially after this comment?
Fanfic authors owe you nothing. Fanfiction is a hobby, a side project, a *PASSION* project. Negativity kills passion in ways that are hard to truly express until you’re on the receiving end of it.
I get being frustrated with an unfinished work, but you’re able to filter that out - and I do when I read fics for this reason. The authors owe me nothing, I owe my readers nothing, what good does it do to put yourself in a place where you’re going to be upset about an unfinished work? Especially given that there’s absolutely no way for you to know what’s going on on the other side of the screen.
Tumblr media
Please, for the love of god, please don’t be this person. No matter how long it’s been since an update, no matter how many unfinished stories are sitting on their account, no matter what - do not be this person.
Not only is it insanely rude, but you also do more damage than you think be being such a self-entitled ass about something someone created for free and for fun. “This author” can see what you say.
RIP decency indeed.

Can we talk about this Rescue Bots episode (Spellbound) because I need to appreciate how TERRIFYING it is??? Especially considering it's cannon in the Aligned Universe. This is some A+ horror.
Like damn, some of Griffin Rock's technology is more powerful than even the Decepticon's tech.
Can you IMAGINE if those creepy mind-control cell phones were used in TFP?
Legit mind control that effects humans AND Cybertronians?
And it's SO UNSETTLINGLY subtle, too. The victim's voices sound like their normal selves but just SLIGHTLY off. *shutter* The voice actors did such a good job.
Just IMAGINE that in Prime.
I feel like Optimus would probably be immune (because the Matrix of Leadership is goated) but can you imagine the Jasper Trio getting mind-controlled, and all their guardians + Ratchet know SOMETHING is off, but not what? Then, slowly, the mind control spreads to the Bots? Or vice versa, the Bots go first, and the humans are like: "Something's up with my guardian."
Kinda wild that Invasion of the Body Snatchers shit 100% exists in TFP's world. Felt like I needed to acknowledge that.
Is this gonna be my next TFP headcanons post? Feeling inspired.🤔

How come no ever talks about the fact that Heatwave was once a Three time Lobbing champ. Like, that's the only type of information we have of him when he was still in Cybertron. Well, other than the fact that he was a Fireman before becoming a rescue bot.
Mf drop his lore like it was nothing

Moderate Your Site Tumblr
The crazy thing about the complete shitshow of medical bots flooding Tumblr tags is that it demonstrates just how awful Tumblr's policies are.
Relying on users to report bots and spam only works when you are dealing with maybe one or two blogs every now and again. I think I have reported and blocked over 200 in three days now.
Moderation is a job. Asking your users to moderate your site for free while you refuse to look deeper than the accounts being reported to you is an insane route to take for staff. Maybe deal with the issues that make your site unusable.
Edit: Very good point we should tag them - @staff telling your users to just report them is crazy when almost 1K posts in health and wellness tags seem to be just spam bots

I know the full arsenal update is out and hype for that but I just found the gutterman's poem in 7-2 and I HAVE to type about it because its night where I am and I cant wake up my friends to rant about Ultrakill.
Anyway, absolutely indescribable how we have the thoughts of a machine just laid bear in a secret for the first and maybe last time. The fact that a machine made for merciless slaughter could not only feel sadness for the person powering it but also WRITE a POEM? A machine made art??? The knowledge that they understand how cruel it is to make a human a blood battery, recognize it as torture, but also feel gratitude for the life they've been given?? It was known that machines had a sense of aesthetic from Swordsmachine and Mindflayer's entries but. Goddamn. The gutterman refers to the human as their mother and it states it CRIED when it crushed her skull as it hoped it would redeem its life.
Also the excerpt, "I know I know you would hate me so, and mother of me, I do too." Does this mean the Gutterman hated itself as much as the human? Did it hate the human instead along with the feelings of love and gratitude? Probably the former. Gutterman angst is so in.
V2's mannerisms and Swordsmachine's data entry are intresting, but a gutterman's eulogy for its prisoner and its attempt at redemption is another level. Actual machine thought process recorded!! Sapient lifeform that knows only war and death! The fact that the gutterman crushing the human's skull seemed to be out of mercy. Ough.
Noone has to interact I havent proof read this I am just RANTING this is CRAZY HAKITA HOW COULD YOU AND THE TEAM DO THIS

II 18 SPOILERS:
The amount of gore we had of this guy this episode LMAOOO
Like imagine if this was like animated as real people or smth and this would basically be brains or smth being pulled out of his body💀💀
He did not want to lose AT ALL .He went to such extreme lengths to win, going as far as to ripping his body apart and being so desperate to get rid of HIS creation that he ended up getting blinded by victory over a assumption and that ended up literally cooking him
+(and then probably being eaten up by Lightbulb or something bcz WHERE IS HIS CORPSE LMAO??)
"Im going to cook" "no, you're going to get COOKED" (ignore my stupid vocabulary I had 2 hours of sleep guys😭)
Hydrogen bombs vs coughing baby ahh match
I loved his character though, these people are so good at writing such interesting characters and giving them satisfying endings (taco and pickle was sad but at least we hot Yuri YAYY)
I wish taco and pickle talked or at least interact but then again what we got was pretty realistic lmao, ignoring people after getting hurt by them is so accurate
Taco defender since day 1 🔥🔥 I knew she'd get Mic
Bow screaming 'brother!!' And literally swooping in to save him was so cute too I loved that, and the immediate sibling response of Dough asking for a voice recording of it is perfect 😭😭
Can't believe an attempt was made on Doughs life oh my days
I can't believe its OVER AUGHHNHHHH

Friendly reminder; if you are trying to get art commissions, this is not how you do it. Do not go onto a persons fanfic and make them feel good about their story only to come back and say "this will be a paid partnership."
I am writing this story for free I am not asking you to create art for my story. If you want to create art for a story of mine, you have permission. But if you're trying to get someone to pay you to make art for their story that they are already putting in free labor and time into, this is not how you do it.
Now, if I approach an artist and ask them to create art, then yes, I am absolutely going to pay for it. I'm the one asking for that art piece based on my works.
but this ^^^ this is just soliciting and spammy and rude asf. don't do this.

I love the fact any time Heatwave and Optimus talk to each other or have a moment it just looks like a father talking to his son and giving him advice
It’s wonderful to see
Tumblr media
The adults are talking

I wanna rant but I need your guy's opinions on this . Cody is a ENFJ and Bumblebee is a ESFJ . THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE , they're literally the same I can't .
Tumblr media
I always knew they were my favorites for a reason . I just absolutely love the parallels between Cody and bumblebee . There's the most obvious one , aka the most sad one . Cause they are both pure good , and really the only way they did evil was under mind control + psychological manipulation .
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But also there are also sweet parallels , like the father-son bond Optimus and Bumblebee , and Cody and Charlie have going on . It's more obvious in rescue bots because Chief is very open about trying to keep Cody safe trying his best to keep him off the Field , while Optimus has to have bumblebee on the battlefield but would still kill for Bumblebee; but when Bee's hurt he will ensure he needs to get better .
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They hate being put down like their incapable of fighting/protecting but so much shit happens to them daily , Cody being caught in most dangerous situations and target of all the bad guys , whilst bumblebee gets targeted by all the bad guys and Targeted for the most gruesome shit ( bro legit got his t-cog stolen 😭 ) Also not to mention the youngest of the group . But if Cody was in a cybertronian station I bet he'd be a scout . ( Soldier when he's older )
+ extra not them both getting grounded at base lmao

*kicks wall and bites through drywall*
I can’t stand when related fandoms take over tags because people won’t let go of the idea that things are connected and they don’t leave the tags in the individual tags.
Like, I get it, parallel universes are interesting but FUCK let me scroll through a tag without seeing shit that isn’t TRULY related!

I will never understand ppl who hate/anti ANY of the members of the Gaang, or even any of the other kids. coz they are just kids. in the middle of a fucking war. of course they're gonna fuck up and make mistakes and be little shits, THEY ARE 12-16 !! ALL OF THE GAANG (including Zuko but excluding Suki) HAVEN'T HAD PROPER SOCIALISATION WITH OTHER KIDS THEIR AGE UNTIL THEY MET EACH OTHER !!
and yes, you could argue that Katara and Sokka had each other, but that's siblings and siblings are not the same as friends, and also Sokka was the only teen boy left in the tribe and I think Katara was the only teen girl too (might be wrong there tho)
you could also argue that Aang had friends before he got stuck in the iceberg so he did actually have that socialisation, but bro is fucking 12 and he was stuck in an iceberg for a hundred fucking years and had the whole avatar thing weighing down on his shoulders, cut the boy some slack ???
Toph and Zuko were both Rich Noble Kids™ so they automatically did not get proper socialisation with other kids their age. Toph was sheltered from the outside world because she's blind and a young girl, but yes she did go to that underground boxing ring but that was mainly adults, I highly doubt she was hanging about with kids there and definitely not in normal circumstances.
And although Mai and Ty Lee were there, they were Azula's "companions" (not originally meant to be friends but may have ended up as so after the war) and they weren't there for Zuko, they were there for Azula only. I'm pretty sure Zuko spent most of his time with tutors or with his mother before she left, he didn't get any socialisation with normal kids and he definitely did not get a normal childhood.
None of them got a normal childhood, so can you really blame any of them for being manipulative or assholes or doing dumb shit, whilst still being a kid/teen !!! and then being bad parents too, when they literally have no good role model to go off of (love Hakoda but bro was not there for his kids for a good couple of years and that does a lot to a kid)
edit: also Azula deserved a redemption/healing arc because she was a victim of abuse as much as Zuko was. she was in fact just a child, as much as the rest of them were, and deserved better. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk 🙏
edit 2: Jet also deserved a chance at healing. like bro watched his village burn and was the sole survivor, he probably has mega survivor's guilt that isn't touched upon in the show, like his hate for the fire nation is pretty rational and his actions (to an extent) are justified. all I'm saying is that if he had anybody else in his corner, that wasn't more angsty, out-for-revenge teens or kids, he could have had a much nicer life. one that didn't lead him to his downfall.

It's the Holiday season so I guess that's also the time for people to try and pull on others' heartstrings by begging for money for various causes.
Within the past three days, I've received several Asks on my main and side blog from random "bots" who all have similar messages and the same kind of avatar (usually a portrait, a family photo, or ruined buildings). Heck, I've received the same copy-paste "gofundme" asks over the past year and I don't see an end to it.
To the people behind these fake accounts; Fuck you for trying to scam people by tapping into their humanity, especially during the holiday season. And fuck you for playing light of people who are in actual need and giving them a bad rep. Try provoking my empathy this way and you get yeeted onto my block list so fast, I'm not kidding.
So done with this. Ugh.
(I've thrown this post into my drafts several times over the past few days because I wasn't certain if to actually post it. But fek it, we ball.)
