#i'm normal about them. just like they're normal about themselves

[yume-writes]

I wonder how the TFP bots would react to the MCBS magical technology. Fleta’s bow, Megatrucker’s shield, the cannons/beams, Blue’s gauntlet, Redblitz’s shoes!! They would’ve been flabbergasted from Blue’s combined form cause how on cybertron—. They’ve seen combiners before, but not with that much power once combined at least in TFP!! Megs getting his aft wrecked from Fleta’s bow alone cause that looks EXPLOSIVE.

I wonder how’d they react to the Speranza crew too. Especially with Cielo/Siero practically revealing herself the second time she visits Mowtown. She’d be scolding Redblitz all the time probably. Rock Crush and Bulkhead might get along. I feel like Glober and Wheeljack would meet from time to time on earth cause they both are sort of “rogue”. Redblitx would practically insult Starscream cause of his frame.

MCB x TFP crossover

The bots would be absolutely shock

Like, sure, they have weapons but nothing to the degree that the Cardbots have. Add on to the fact that the weapons appear out of thin air and yeah, they would be flabbergasted

The cardbots would probably wonder why they're so shocked and get shocked themselves once they learn the bots can't do that, lol

Ratchet has his head in his hands trying to figure out how they can do this, others like Arcee are confused but just accept it, and others like Bulkhead just cannot wrap their head around it

Megatron tries to give his usual speech and just gets blasted into the dirt by Fleta-Z's arrows, he tries to get up and gets thrown across the field by Heavy Iron's cannon, every time he gets up a new Cardbot jumps him, he will not have peace

The bots would be flabbergasted about Blue Cop's combined form, first off because he wasn't a combiner beforehand and he can just become one. Like, yeah, other bots can join combiners but that takes time, Blue Cop just instantly does it and he can go back into his normal form, it confuses them endlessly. On top of the power he has is insane, he could be as strong as Optimus, do you know how many bots are as strong as Optimus!? Very few that's how many.

Also on the topic of the Speranza crew I'm not quite sure how the bots would act with them (I'm waiting on all of s2 to get sub to watch it all at once) But with how easily Cielo and Red Blitz reveal themselves to the world they, probably, would feel a bit exasperated.

I really don't have anything to add to Rock Crush and Bulkhead's friendship other than the fact they would be good friends. Glober and Wheeljack would get along well, I feel like maybe they would also get along with Fleta-Z, they're all rouges who roam around

Red Blitz insulted Starscream so badly one time that it took damn near three hours to separate them, it was like two cats fighting

It's so cool to see CRK getting popular again, it feels so refreshing like so much new quality fan content dropping that we couldn't even DREAM about a couple of months ago, but it hurts my very soul seeing new players being interested in beast x ancient ships, in their dynamics, asking is it okay to ship it and getting slapped in the face with another "IT'S ABUSER X VICTIM IT'S A PROSHIP IT'S A DARKSHIP" (which is just not true) killing off all the fun, bc apparently enemies to lovers, AUs and what-ifs doesn't exist anymore and everything that isn't pure fluff is illegal now. "IT'S NOT ENEMIES TO LOVERS, BEASTS ABUSED AND TORTURED THEM" yeah THAT'S WHAT ENEMIES DO??? What else do you expect from a villain honestly??? Like in ANY media??? Beasts still got their ass beat in the end as they totally deserve BECAUSE ANCIENTS ARE NOT SOFT INNOCENT SMALL BABIES THAT NEED TO BE PROTECTED, they're grown ass IMMORTAL ADULTS with huge responsibilities, they rule kingdoms, they hold a huge power in their hands, they're imperfect and not innocent. They can stand for themselves, they can fight, they can destroy, they can lie and they WILL if they need to.

I can SMELL that a shit tonne of people in this fandom secretly enjoys beast x ancient as a guilty pleasure, a forbidden fruit, but they will never admit it just because they're afraid of being harassed and bullied and it's just sad how normalized it is to hurt actual people over shipping some mobile game characters, who are adults, doesn't have power imbalance between them and aren't related.

And allat coming from ME, who doesn't ship a single beast x ancient ship

It's sad lol. Sad for the Beast x Ancient community and honestly kind of pathetic for ardent detractors at this point. I've seen sooooo many Beast x Ancient fans get harassed and even sent death threats, it's not even funny (not that it ever was in the first place). Don't you have better things to do than get this mad about video games lol. Like a job or school or a hobby or something

You're right, the Ancients are not helpless widdle babies and I'm kind of sick of how often they're infantilized, in general and just for the sake of tearing down BxA. They're grown adults who are thousands of years old. Two of them are parents, whose children are grown adults themselves. 4 of 5 founded entire nations. 1 is an active ruler still (Cacao), one seeks to rule again (Golden). Let's not kid ourselves, they've probably all got blood on their hands (not to the degree the Beasts do, but still. You don't live that life without having to make tough choices). Stop treating them like porcelain dolls lol. Yes, the Beasts attacked them, but they're villains. That's what villains do. Go play Animal Crossing if you can't handle heroes and villains fighting each other lol

And then I get a laugh whenever those same people who screech about toxicity and abuse and yadda yadda turn around and ship H*llyt*ya or Sh*dowSp*ce. The former is BxA in a different costume. The latter... Man. You know. Because TWO deranged maniacs, who are fundamentally incompatible in every way and do not make sense at all and absolutely would hurt each other and bring each other down I hate that ship so damn much. Do not ask me abt it I WILL ramble and nobody needs that. Zero beef with fans though, we're coolio! Just a difference of opinion!, is such a better option, isn't it lol. Hypocrisy.

I'm sure you noticed that ep 7 + 8 brought out a whole lot of new ShadowVanilla fans. I agree w/ you, I can feel that there are a fuckton of BxA fans lurking in the darkness, waiting for an excuse to poke their heads out (like 7 + 8 lol), only hiding because they don't want to attract lunatics. Even YOU sent this ask anonymously. Most of my inbox is stuff from anons, and I look at them all and wonder, "how many of you are just afraid of backlash for expressing any joy in BurningCheese or any of the other BxA pairs?" It's ok, guys. Don't listen to them. Be you. I'm being me right now, as cringy as I am. I am Extremely Normal about BurningCheese and I'm not ashamed :) they're video game characters at the end of the day, just have fun. Why can't we all just be bros, man, what does any of this matter

Supernatural S.5 Ep.2 - Good God, Y'all! - Liveblog

Welcome back welcome back, let's get started liveblogging. This appears to be a somewhat Castiel centered episode based off of the episode summary, and that makes me happy because his character really intrigues me!

Dean is struggling with the idea of Bobby not being okay it seems. Which I can understand. It's never easy to deal with the struggles of a parental figure, and we've seen how everything with John impacted him. I can understand why he just wants everything to be okay.

The X-Rays of the ribs are really cool. Is it bad I kind of want a scene where when can see the actual ribs, not just the X-Ray of them? Like, one of the brothers gets their chest carved open? I just really want to look at those ribs and study them...

Cas is cut off from Heaven. That's what I expected after what happened with the archangel. I do feel bad for Bobby though, because I know he was counting on Cas being able to heal him.

"I'm gonna find God." That's. Yea. Maybe some people on tumblr need to take one from you and do that too (I SAY JOKINGLY)

Seriously though, you know how a few posts ago I said moments in this show make me feel sacrilegious? That's the start of one. Not that I can't watch religion based shows, or shows that satirize and criticize elements of religion, but sometimes there are moments they make me, as a pretty religious person, feel like I'm doing something wrong.

Castiel not understanding sarcasm, I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE-

Watching Castiel lose his faith, have to kill his brothers, only for Dean to criticize his desperation, oh Castiel you are a stronger man than I am, Dean would be on the FLOOR by now.

"I did all of it for you" I know what you are I know what you are I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE

The necklace Sam gave Dean is basically a God metal detector? I love that- I knew it was going to be relevant. I'm honestly surprised he's giving it away so willingly.

ELLEN!! I missed her. Very glad to see her again. She seems mad at them. Does she know? Does she know they started the apocalypse? Oh never mind, she was holding it safe because they were outside.

Dean doesn't trust Sam... That's what this is about. Ouch.

Demon blood... I fear this won't end well. It's not that I don't trust Sam or believe in his strength but... Please don't do it, it's not worth it. Please, Sam. The scene is done really well though. I can see the distrust in Dean's eyes. I don't like seeing that look.

To Dean, Sam shoving him was basically proving his point... Ouch I don't like these episodes, I don't like what they're doing to me. I don't like seeing Sam and Dean fighting.

Wait I'm confused. Jo's eyes are black but she seems to think Ellen is possessed?

Sam is kidnapped. Why do I get a feeling they're going to uh... donate some blood, so to speak...

Wait what? I'm actually very confused right now. They seem to think that Sam and Ellen are demons, but are they not demons themselves? What is happening?

Oh I get it. Someone/something is manipulating the situation. Making them think the other is/are demons. I'm wondering about this dude.

The four horsemen- That makes sense that makes sense! I'm a little disappointed I didn't get it to begin with...

The horseman toying with Sam, calling him out on how he wants blood. Jared's eyes are so emotional in this scene, I normally hate eye contact but I'm actually struggling to look away. The slight tremble in his facial muscles, I always adore this kind of acting and Jared is doing it so well.

Okay so they cut his fingers off and got the ring, where did War go? How do they destroy it.

OH IS SAM COMING CLEAN? He is- Oh Sam...

No- No this can't be the end- They can't be separating- No- I hate this-

Fuck. I was expecting a Castiel episode and instead all I got was an emotional wreck. This fucking sucks.

I don't know if I can handle this season, this is hurting my feelers.

[happyandticklish]

Un-tickling related but guys, can we just... like, normalize being into your partner? Regardless of gender or sexuality?

I see sooooo much shit with bisexual women who are tripping over themselves apologizing for being in a relationship with a man or primarily dating men. And I do get where that comes from, though I don't agree with it, but could you imagine being a partner in a relationship and your partner feels like they need to justify being with you? That feels super shitty.

Also, if you aren't into your partner, then leave them. If you are with someone and you're embarrassed of them or don't like a lot of aspects of their personality or feel the need to justify liking them, then leave them. I'm not talking about if other people are judging you, I'm saying, if you are judging yourself for being with that person because they are not the person you want to end up with, then leave them. It's not worth being in a relationship with somebody you don't like just to be in one or to spare their feelings.

Your sexuality does not have to be defined by anything! That's the cool thing about sexuality! It is a weird, slippery, slide-y scale that works differently for different people. If you are bisexual and primarily into men but are definitely attracted to women, that's fine! If you are bisexual and find men attractive but only want to date women, that's fine! If you are primarily into women but end up falling in love with a man and marrying them, that's fine! All being bisexual means is that you are attracted to both genders. This does not mean an equal amount, this does mean you date both genders, this does not mean you have sex with both genders. It means you're attracted to both in whatever capacity that is.

Don't buy into the bisexual hate. It exists and it's shitty, but fight against it. If you're a bisexual woman in love with a man, celebrate it! You love someone and they love you, and that's awesome! If you are a bisexual woman in love with a woman, that's also great!

I am a bisexual woman and I am with a man and he's fucking awesome. I love him so much and would not change a thing about him. I also find woman extremely attractive and could just as easily have ended up with one. Just... love your partner and be nice to them. And if you are treating your partner as a placeholder for when you get into a relationship with someone else (i.e. until you get a girlfriend), that's shitty, man. Technically a thing you can do, but shitty. Date whoever you want to date, don't let the terms of sexuality box you in. Labels are helpful but they're not contractually binding. Explore and figure out what works for you and, most importantly, don't be shitty to the person you are in a relationship with. Love them openly and truly.

This applies for bisexual men too, I just happen to be a bisexual woman, so I am using those terms primarily.

Sincerely, a PSA brought to you by someone who has seen way too much of this this Valentine's Day.

[cellaspider]

sorry is it centrist to not like actual bigotry? It's okay to hate america the country and it's political system and politicians. It's okay to be angry at the americans who did nothing about what has been happening. It's not okay to hate all americans for being american. It's not okay to hate a group of people because of their nationality. That's what fascists do. Also you did hurt my delicate centrist feelings. I think that the current status quo isn't working and we should adopt a more egalitarian social and economic system. But I don't think all americans are subhuman filth unworthy of respect because they have a shitty government. Because I have no feet to stand on. I haven't done jack shit to resist the american government and you haven't done anything to resist the american government. You need to get off your high horse and learn how to respect human beings, and while you're at it, learn about all the different ways americans are working to resist their current administration. Even people with shitty politics.

What have you done again? Were you perhaps standing there with a gun helping to drive out neonazis? protesting trump's illegal and dangerous, sometimes orwellian moves? Or perhaps you brought a legal case against one of his executive orders? Took out a newspaper ad in opposition to his genocidal ethnic cleansing plan? Quit your job rather than carry out his bidding, an ineffectual, if not symbolic move? Wait no, this is you.

"hahaha. God. Imagine being THIS fucking gay? (homophobia) Such a bottom. I'm sure this retard (ableism) followed his bully around and got him things for free. You can just slap an American (generalizing an entire population.) in the face. They love daddy. Daddy doesn't love them. But they abuse they need is what counts. Like, imagine doing what this fat (fatphobia) retard (ableism) did and thinks it accomplishes anything other than to make him look like the biggest victim in the world. Fuck. This is so fucking funny. IMAGINE BEING THIS MUCH OF A PREDICTABLE LOSER. I'm glad their schools are getting closed down (wishing ill on children???), really seems like a waste of effort, just feed them into the grinder"

Notice how all you seem to do is be bigoted towards people doing bigoted praxis. Better than doing bigoted things, but still. If instead of alienating most people, you just used regular insults... call them assholes and malicious, or use a descriptive one, nazis. The gestapo. You also seem to assume all americans are like this? But assuming you clicked all the links I provided, they aren't. They do more than you. You hold no moral high ground. You cannot say they are subhuman without yourself being subhuman. You seem to have a superiority complex without anything to back it up. You call americans all evil without doing anything to help, and while continuing the use of bigoted language, like using gay as an insult. Which normalizes homophobia. You also seem to overuse "delicate centrist feelings" while being for all intents and purposes a centrist who claims superiority over the barbaric americans while actually seeming to agree with a lot of their points. All people are bad people one way or another with few exceptions. We all have our flaws. This isn't uniquely american. Some people are worse than others. Some are you (bad). Some are me (less bad). Some are people who call ICE (much worse than you). You also claim americans are "vessels for rich and powerful Men to do what they're told. Pathetic. Sad. Like rabid animals." which is true of some. But its also true of many europeans, and africans, and people from all countries. I doubt rich people love luigi mangione as much as some americans, for example.

Heres another quote from you

"No American wants to help. No American will ever help you. They just need an excuse to do nothing and they'll KILL YOU to keep themselves innocent."

Heres a list of places where americans help each other

This is the website of the organization the US government used to use to help people.

Here's another american founded organization dedicated to ending all sorts of societal problems.

Clearly you do no research. You seem to just dehumanize an entire nationality based off the actions of a bigoted crowd of them which is large, but can be referred to without conflating them with all americans.

"REtards out in full force. Imagine being upset someone threw up a nazi salute, unleashed jack booted thugs to raid people's houses and then sold the country out for parts. Imagine, like, having core values that don't revolve around doing what you're told. Imagine, like, being held accountable for your actions. Imagine alllllll of those things happened, and more, including midnight arrests of political opposition, A South afrikaan warlord stealing all your personal information, and the opening of a concentration camp and the ONLY thing the faggots come up with is:"

Americans literally are upset about all of these things? Are you daft? Do you not keep up with any americans online? These are all opposed by many americans. The problem is you don't just talk about that. You imply they all agree with that. Lets use israel as another example. A country doing genocide. Saying that "jews aren't people" is antisemitic. Hell, saying "Israelis aren't people" is still antisemitic. It's conflating a people with a government. If you say "All jews are barbaric violent monsters and unworthy of life" thats nazi shit. Idgaf what their government is doing, thats bigoted. A people is not the government. People agreeing with the government is one thing but a people isn't a monolith.

"Ooooooh. Is the fat yank screaming for genocide gotten bis little feelings hurt? Ooooooh. Little snowflake all big mad and big hurrrrrrrt? You gonna run to your daddy? Faggot? You gonna go cry to your big man daddy to make all the mean people go away? Little butt hurt baby?"

You never denied that you're homophobic. What do you disagree with about trump? It sounds like you're a bigoted fascist who wants to do genocide honestly. You seem to want all americans to die. Which isn't much different than the "barbaric" americans you seem to hate so much want. You sound barbaic. It sounds like you might fall into your definition of subhuman. So put up or shut up. justify your bigotry or delete your account, fucking coward.

Americans when you ask them to do anything productive as nazis overtake their shitty country.

Gotta love em. They're all bad people. One way or the other. But they get sooooooooooooooooooooo mad when you call them out. They're so retarded they never take the easy answer. They never just admit there's a problem. They ALWAYS let their true colors show.

No American wants to help. No American will ever help you. They just need an excuse to do nothing and they'll KILL YOU to keep themselves innocent.

QUICK NO ONE'S LOOKING

(See readmore for thoughts, cope, bonus, etc.)

Anyone else up thinking about Ratio's big, strong, secure arms and how warm and all-consuming they could be in a hug or embrace. :/ Anyway

I just wanted to draw them being cute and seizing a sliver of a moment where they could have some PDA silly time without actually having any eyes on them. They're public figures and working adults with very clear boundaries between public persona and private life (to varying degrees of "in a sad way"), so while it may be in Aventurine's nature to constantly blur lines for various agendas and self-preservation (read: play "the flirt" without an aligned goal), I believe that in an actual relationship they'd be fairly private.

It's kind of fun to break your own rules, though! Ratio would be more upset about the consequences, though. He's a little bit of a hypocrite, which is devastating for someone of such discipline, but nobody's perfect.

I'm of the mentality of, "If you're tired of working on it, then just post it!", so here are some fun peripherals that I didn't feel like adding:

Some staff in the background sweeping up to evoke a blended sense of fragile privacy and liminal time.

A laptop on the aquarium/bar/counter because there's something fascinating about seeing people on their work laptops in public.

The rest of their clothes (casual friday)

LAST MINUTE CYL Sharena propaganda, that... ended up being too last minute. Whoops! Well. I'm happy to have them, for any occasion. 😌💕

This is a redraw of one of my fave anniversary arts! The 4th anniversary one! With some slight changes, and focused on Sharena and Alfonse, themselves (I did debate drawing my Summoner in the corner, like in that artwork, but.... no..... I just..... need to focus on Them....)

That said, I have a few other doodles too!

Oooughhfjhhhhghhhhhhhgghhhfff........, the. 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 Yeagh 👍

I also wanted to include the 4th anniversary art for comparison! Under a cut! But also chances are you can just. Go to my blog and See It LMFAOO 🧍

It maybe would have been nice to include the cute background too........ but you can't make me. NUMBER #1 HATER OF BACKGROUNDS 🚫🚫🚫😤😤😤😤😤💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

The pokemon anime subreddit fascinates and frustrates me on equally deep levels

[selfship-confession-box]

to be quite honest. shipping with CANON (not headcanoned) exclusively gay/lesbian characters as someone of the gender they are explicitly not attracted to is a form of erasure and lowkey homophobic. 'just make them bi' is a bad take. bi people are amazing and valid but not everyone is bisexual??? 'theyre not real' is a bad take bc representation matters and i feel like that doesnt really need to be said. obviously the character isnt real and isnt offended but gay/lesbian selfshippers can see how much you dont gaf abt their identities. gay people exist in real life too!!! homophobia is still so acceptable in fandom spaces and its kinda wild.

Actually this one gets to skip the queue because we just had another anon push their luck about this. I WAS originally going to leave this in queue but now feels like a better time to nip this in the bud.

This is the LAST thing I'm saying about this topic because frankly it's the majority of what we've been getting recently and it's exhausting. All future asks about this topic WILL be deleted. AS STATED ABOVE. DO WHAT YOU WANT FOREVER. YOUR EXPERIENCE IS YOURS AND YOURS ALONE.

TAKING POTSHOTS AT EACH OTHER IS NOT A CONFESSION.

THAT'S CALLED BEING AN ASSHOLE.

k thanks bye

Finally done with teen wolf rewatch. Phew

[ceramicbeetle]

one thing i do love about Brennan's storytelling is how often he creates characters who carry Anger with them. like, it's not an anger that subsumes or permeates who they are, nor does it tend to Remain throughout the entirety of their arcs, but it's there, in Zelda, and Hob, and Evan, and Ayda, and Nikhil, and so on. Characters who snap and snarl and growl and shout, and - and this is Key - are never like, reprimanded, or corrected, or resented for it. i cannot express how much this means to me

[jovalencia]

okay the jokes about bi women with jakey ass boyfriends were funny but I'm gonna need everybody to stop before people start getting too comfortable and start getting really biphobic with it

[icewindandboringhorror]

I still very loathe the Media Trope of ‘’cold genius man doesn’t feel emotions and never has relationships... UNTIL.. one random relatively bland Preddy Woman comes along and warps his entire personality and ability to think, his heart has grown and his seeming asexuality has evaporated, he is now Normal :)” or whatever like... AS a walking generic hermit archetype myself.. we would NOT act like that .... just let people be detached weirdos in peace, you cowards .. OR, don’t bother to write one in the first place if you find us too boring to exist realistically in our natural state lol.. pathetic 

[gender-euphowrya]

the absolute vicious shit people think they have to say whenever the topic of 'picky eaters' comes up ESPECIALLY when it's about children is just sickening
