Dogstock are typical of what are often deemed the ‘evil’ races in many other fantasy works. They were created by some higher force to be slaves, they are carnivorous by nature, they resemble animals other than human in dentition and build. They growl and bite and walk behind.
The Uhasr (a dogstock culture) are descendants of such slave-infantry that was abandoned when the empire that used them to capture the steppes decided the land wasn’t so profitable after all, and more pressing matters drew their attention elsewhere. Like tools left spent on the ground, the unneeded, excess dogstock were left to survive on their own in Hochkiskuph. The native peoples, of course, did not welcome them any more, or see them any less as oppressors when the hand released the lead. To the Hochkiskuph peoples, the Uhasr are a predatory ghost, an echo that consumes them even in absentia. To the Uhasr, one human is much like another, differing in number and equipment, but never in essence. Uhasr are a species of wild animal with a human face. Humans are prey on two legs. Humans smoke and poison uncovered dens on principle, Uhasr abduct and consume men and women and children all the same.
A common trend I have noticed in media which aims to humanize monsters, is that it often relies on passivity. Humanity is contingent upon kindness. The monster that is A Person only so long as they are a harmless thing at heart, something which can be understood and befriended. Their violence is reluctant, their hearts noble. Grace is a concession to the dominated. Only the toothless beast, declawed and pinioned and caged, is one which has earned its personhood. The ontological enemy supersedes the ontological man.
#haven't posted them much (all wips) but been thinking about the sphinxish people in my setting. same world as thrones#different part of the continent like 2 whole seas away#this is inspired by a shitty comic a friend is reading and also thinking some of the writing in the long way to a small angry planet re#hostile aliens really really sucked.#i want to talk abt this more so im posting it if you have thoughts i would like to hear themmmmm#i'm very cynical about this kind of stuff lmao#dogstock#im also reading tollkien rn so im thinking about ORCS#i dont actually like the lotr trilogy all that much but not even bc i think the writing is bad i just think its kinda boring. sorry.#thats not a very interesting reason to not like something i dont even think its not good im just not super entertained. rip#like not saying there is no issue with it at all writing wise there is very much to say abt how it is utterly and uncritically#white good black bad fair elves and dark orcs and shit like that#but i've liked things more that have bigger issues. hi pern. maybe i just like shlock! idk!#rambling. im keyed up hi#the gibberish in spookygibberish

I love the idea that, whenever a Cybertronian space-faring vessel lands or docks within a predominantly non-Cybertronian space station or port, that it's required that they either confirm or deny whether their vessel is sentient or not before being permitted to land.
1. For proper accommodation and clarification, along with the chance for communication between the vessel and crews working the station/port.
2. Because there has been... incidents... incidents that have led to the requirement of the above reasons.
#an irate dreadnought with a brain and very big feelings could wreak all sorts of havoc on an unprepared station unfortunately#also. itd be a bit shocking to be just some guy working the fuel station. idly complimenting a shiny cruiser only for it to say 'thanks <3'#transformers#maccadam#tf idw#tf worldbuilding#???#i mean. yeah. its technically world building. we dont see much of that kinda stuff#but im sure as hell thinking about it rn#i love wacky sci fi worldbuilding. theres not enough of it on a broader galactic scale in tf sometimes#like. they mention other aliens and hubs in a few continuities i think. but then they only do so much with it#outside of crossovers ig#idk. i just like thinking of how beings other than humans perceive cybertronians and the colonists#like. they're new to humans. usually. but theyve had other alien neighbors for millions of years#transformers surely are quite talked about on a broader galactic scale. and obv taken into consideration either for good or bad#they're nigh immortal. they're constantly fighting each other and dying. they're peacekeepers. they're warlords. they're big. they're small#they're fucking weird. and somehow end up all over the place#they hate your kind. they love your kind. they think you're disgusting. they're offering to be your car#how many citizens of their galaxy nervously attempt to politely ask a vehicle if its alive or not on a daily bases in popular hubs/stations#its so funny to me#also. thinking about fic stuff relating to idw1. and like. all the background aliens and their factions fascinate me a bit. its fun inspo#mtmte#lost light#nearly forgot those. since other aliens and factions are featured in them a bit#slowly getting through robots in disguise rn. and all the nail stuff got me thinking about neutrals finding homes amongst other aliens#also like. some of the darker stuff thats mentioned about cybertronians being sold or indentured. like. hows that viewed broadly?

i know astrology is fake but i'm not too keen on how a lot of people on this website seem to be clowning on it as a hobby a bit too hard. i swear the woman who thinks it's neat how she and her friends with the same sun sign are all similar isn't trying to say that you are who you are born as and there is nothing you can do to change it. it's a hobby. an interest. what happened to finding meaning and joy in the small things. does it affect you if someone enjoys tarot reading or crystals. does it make you upset someone has interests that they enjoy.
#im not saying astrology/tarot/crystals/etc. get clowned on so much bc theyre hobbies mostly enjoyed by women But....#i saw a post about some astrology study and made the mistake of opening the notes on that bad boy#not fun. and that reminded me of that old post that was basically like ''liking astrology is transphobic''#anyways idk maybe its just that my bestie is very much a ''crystal girl'' but like. stuff like that are such neat hobbies#she makes some cute little jars with pretty rocks and they make her feel better bc if you believe in something you can make it happen#when it comes to small things#like yeah if you pick up a stone that's like ''this can help you be more open with your emotions'' and you are like ''oh hell yea!''#ofc that will be on your mind and the item will be a constant reminder and actually help you with your goals#and its like. ok what really stuck with me was when i was talking with my bff and i was like ''i think all this stuff is interesting but i#feel bad bc i am superstitious and believe in some signs like lucky numbers but i know that logically its just. if i pick a lucky number of#i pay extra attention to it but i want to believe its lucky but i know how human brains work in that aspect''#and she was just like. ''so? those things dont have to exclude each other'' and it clicked#if i have a little tigers eye with me it does not make me feel more grounded magically#but if i decide (or believe) it's grounding then it will b bc it's a reminder for me to calm down#and stuff#like. ah idk how to put my thoughts into words#but i just think its unfair that a few rotten apples have ruined the perception of fun hobbies for a lot#not every astrology enjoyer is trying to sell you mlm essential oils or genuinely believe peoples entire lives are dictated upon the stars#or something#idk i just feel like these things are v misunderstood even tho im not personally like super into them myself#but ppl super mean about that stuff arent invited to look at my medieval themed fortune telling cards#idkk im sleepy and cant articulate my points someone else say this but better#leevi talks#im just saying. i dont think its bioessentialism to decide to believe you personally have a season for growth when the stars are in a#certain position or whatever

Y'all need to SHUT UP about "transandrophobia/transmisandry". I saw a post the other day I haven't stopped thinking about, about transmisogyny, and like most the comments were going "Isn't that just transphobia?" (Which is already wild, 'cause it isn't. Since transmisogyny is the overlap of two very real oppressions: Transphobia & Misogyny)
But one was like "Sees post abt transmisogyny, checks blog, transandrophobe. like clockwork." When literally there was no posts on OPs blog that were hateful toward transmascs/men... just posts talking abt OPs experience with transmisogyny. (even if there were it wouldn't be "transandrophobia" cuz its not real, it would just be either transphobia or bullying/harassment depending on if their transness was attacked)
If you see people talking abt women's issues and think "This means they HATE men!!" (trans or no) you need to stop an think for a moment. Women on this site can't make ANY exclusive post (Transmisogyny, Lesbianism, or just talking abt being women) without guys coming along and going "How can I make this about me?".
And I know it's mostly trans men who are suffering through dysphoria and thinking about women makes them ick. But consider for a moment that you don't need to verbalize those thoughts, especially under posts that aren't about you/your experiences.
Please refrain at least from doing it under other ppls posts, I'm begging.
OPs note: I'm not being hostile/trying to start shit. Im just upset and wanna talk abt it. I'm transmasc myself (tho not a man).
#transgender#transmasc#trans man#trans masc#transmisandry#transandrophobia#tagging those so the ppl who NEED to see it. see it#small edit: even if this specific OP was talking bad about ppl who complain abt transmisandry. i see these comments literally every where#on trans womens posts that arent even abt transphobia/transmisandry. just abt being trans and a woman#gay men reblogging a lesbians post abt being a lesbian but in the notes 'this but with men'. 'me but im a man'. “im gay! but i like men”#and if you havent seen these comments then im very happy for you! doesnt mean they dont exist :)#idk if one person called ppl who complain abt transmisandry a 'mean name'. doesnt make it right to turn their posts into all abt being a ma

i think the people complaining about wonderful precure not having combat are kinda funny cuz ive literally only seen futari wa and wonderful and im currently watching wonderful precure and futari wa max heart at the same time and enjoying both of them
#Idk why yall want these girls to beat the shit out of animals so much#They have combat capabilities they just arent using them cuz like...theyre fighting animals who remember being beat up#The moral is dont beat up animals#Also wonderful precure is a little girls show on a clear small budget#I get its not as exciting as soaring sky but sometimes its okay to be a little girls show for little girls#It can still be fun#If anyone remembers my last pretty cure post yes im still on futari wa max heart#Im bad at watching anime and i took like a year break after finishing futari wa cuz i didnt really like the second half#I mean i did it was just kinda boring cuz it got extended u know what i mean?#The vaild complaint is that satoru isnt a precure im part of the justice for satoru campaign him and daifuku need to be midseason cures#I mentioned satoru to my friend and she thought i was talking about gojo and i was like no the yuri guy from wonpre#Anyways#wonderful precure#pretty cure#futari wa precure

yknow i do think it's possible to support trans men and transandrophobia theory without obsessing over the existence of baeddels
#trip talks#like idk theyre such a small minority of people just block them#i really don't think hyperfixating on a subset of shitty people in a group is ever good#whether you acknowledge it or not you will form a subconscious bias#it's hard not to get sucked into the minutiae of individual bad actors but it's necessary to being normal#been feeling uncomfortable with how... reactionary certain people are#im not a hypocrite and i hold my allies to the same standard as everyone. don't say you want all baeddels to die#i dont care how frustrated you are or how shitty they are stop saying you wish a group of trans women were dead NOWWWW!

it is pretty funny to me when i see people using like almost my exact wording from one of my posts in their posts/asks cuz like at least i know they liked my take but sometimes it makes me so nervous for some reason.. like wdym ur using MY take in conversation with other people or in posts/asks of a completely different context... i'll take it as a compliment but my timbers are shivered
#its really common on here since yk... this fandom is so small#but its kinda being thrown in my face with like the confessions blog and other things#i dont send anonymous asks because i like to just post my thoughts constantly#so whenever i see an ask thats like practically something ive said but a little different im like oh ??????#its usually not obvious unless i posted it really recently#otherwise i'll just be like huh maybe just a common opinion#but if i JUST said something and someone else starts saying the same thing its pretty obvious#not that thats a bad thing#im just not used to it#meows post#ok fyi idk if this comes off right but im talking about like#very very specific wording with specific takes#especially because oftentimes itll be an opinion i had never seen on here before i posted about it#and i could be wrong maybe i just dont pay attention#idek what im trying to say anymore

I need to be weirder about the scavengers and cannibalism...
#its been a long day... but im feeling better now. (thanks for the well wishes and such btw <3-)#(-sending my well wishes in return by tenfold bcs. damn. it seems stuff is really going around rn)#but yeah... just. augh. theres just smth about how the scavs sorta translate into more like. thriller-esque genres pretty well?#like. i feel somehow those themes compliment their characteristics? or could compliment their characteristics in a more rounded out way#sure. theyre generally a light hearted romp of absurdity with occasional themes of a not good not bad handling of 'mental health matters'#but they just really shine a bit in horrific circumstances. esp with the sort of absurdity they bring to the table#theyre odd people. even in the context of their generally weird and alien universe. and that right there feels like a trove of potential#its like. ok. the lost light crew? also odd. but thats a huge ship. full of people and variety and a sense of purpose and normalcy post-war#(normalcy being. whatever all those background folks were getting up too while plot happened around them. cruise ship stuff ig)#but in contrast. with the w.a.p crew. its an ark class ship with like. a handful of people. and a whole lot of junk and free time#both just cruising through space endlessly for years. one with hundreds of people. and one with like 6 people.#so both are technically isolated when theyre not making pit-stops planet or station side. but again. 100s vs 6 dudes.#think. top of the line cruise ship from hell with a small town sized populace vs a big shitty boat and 6 starving guys#both have the capacity to become case studies in madness. both could do really well thriller wise. but the scavs being a smaller group?#it only being the 6 of them emphasis the isolation perhaps. less variety. less change. same 6 people for 5(?) years#things could get weird fast. codependent mentalities. us vs them mindsets. an otherness about everyone else outside of their group#and then! then you add to the mix the fact that theyre eating/drinking from corpses?! *chefs kiss* awesome. love it.#non-stationary isolation + cannibalism. ough. perfect mix. a classic of maritime horror but in space! :D!#a big ship. small crew. living while knowing that as soon as you kick the bucket. your body is the meal. your body is the fuel.#no decorum about it. no faith. no belief. just perverse survival. bcs they might enjoy it. a bloody gluttony. with a bite. a sample. a taste#it takes seeing your buddy as a walking talking burger to another level. bcs every corpse you come across is also a burger. and a gas can#also fulcrum making candy out of corpses is so. particularly perfect when it comes to the horrifically absurd. just. smth about it. idk#but also also. the line. where was the line drawn for each of them? and when did they each cross it?#most of them dont seem like the type to jump head first into that. so how did they justify it to themselves? had they done it before?#and then. when did it become normal? a habit? smth enjoyable?#i might be running out of tags. but yeah. them being weirder. esp about each other and others.#nothing brings a group of people together like the overhanging knowledge that you sort of kinda wanna eat each other#(rlly wishing i could stomach realistic thrillers rn. but i just cant. gotta stick to written or artistic styles or risk panic attacks :/)#(ive tried a couple movies and shows now. and cant get through most of them. praise be synopses and peoples long rambles about them tho :D)#(nothing like reading someones passionate ramble about the meaning/symbolism of some gory nightmare without having to actually see it lol)

hot take. masking can be good actually.
#not to say that unmasking is bad bc of course not#but i do think there is a utility and importance to masking that often goes unsaid#and i think learning to unmask and learning to mask can be complimentary#there are situations where small talk and scripting and understanding the rhythms of conversation#will be good for you#and simultaneously#there are times where you will need to unmask to recoup spoons and avoid burnout#idk just food for thought#i understand this is coming from a place of privilege tho#im level 1 autistic and while masking can burn me out#it also comes effortlessly to me#its an automatic trigger. a response i cant quite control#in my autism assessment my assessor described me as a social chameleon LOL

probably my biggest killjoy moment is that i think 9/11 jokes can go way too far. i think people like to dunk on "america" as a vague concept, but i dont think a government being bad means that 2 buildings and 4 commercial flights of regular people deserved to die...
#99.txt#i also dont think that the fact that other ppl also suffered suddenly makes it ok....#idk i have some crazy mental illness that makes it so i think anyone dying is bad#i dont wanna like. diminish how badly the us govt fucked up the middle east. but i dont think any rando in america ''deserved it''#i think like...................... its both bad.#i also think that the us military using the deaths of normal ppl to justify even more violence is cruel and disrespectful#just like. joking TOO much about it is. also disrespectful....#idk my neighbor as a kid was on one of those flights. just like. trying to get somewhere. its still tragic#a pretty small percentage of the victims were even military or anything like it was mostly just random people...#im talking in circles but just like... idk !! war is bad ! violence is bad !!!#i know other places have had it way worse but i dont think that makes it ok to be like ''it should happen to YOU now !!!'' ??#i think thats kinda stupid and weird. to crave random violence like that as long as the people were born in the Bad Country#''its ok for something bad to happen to you because something WORSE has happened to someone else'' <- a weird mentality i see too much#in general#idk ppl might be stupid about this and think im saying like ''i love murica'' or whatever.#or that i think this is like. MORE important than other problems. i dont#its relevant to me because i have personal experience with it. and i think its sad and ppl can be distasteful. thats all it is
