"Don't be like Sentinel."

Don't be like Sentinel, who put his own desires over the needs of everyone else on Cybertron and made their choices for them. (Was D killing Sentinel to fulfill his own desire for revenge with no consideration for what all of Sentinel's other victims might want not him selfishly making their choice for them?)

Don't be like Sentinel, who as a leader promoted values that made their society worse. (It was normalized caste discrimination for Sentinel, but is setting a precedent for brutality against those who get in your way or wrong you as acceptable "justice" really any better for a leader to be exemplifying? And becoming the new leader by killing the former, is that not effectively what Sentinel did?)

Don't be like Sentinel, who had just been planning to publicly execute D, Bee, and half the High Guard without a trial just like D is about to do now. (Executing someone without trial or due process, when he's already been defeated and is helpless on the ground, is murder, not justice.)

I'm getting tired of the Orion Pax slander. Orion wasn't even saying that D's like Sentinel at this point. He was pleading with D to not act like Sentinel when they're better than that. Claiming that Orion was saying "the act of killing the bad guy alone is enough to make D just as bad is him" is literally the most surface-level reading of that scene.

And this isn't even getting into Megatron's presumption in taking Megatronus' cog for himself to gain more power, which is exactly what Sentinel did, or his indiscriminate destruction of Iacon heedless of the collateral damage. Both of these happened afterwards but only serve to prove Orion's point.

Sure, D's motivations are more sympathetic than Sentinel's ever were, but when his actions are functionally similar, when they produce similar results, is it really wrong to say that D is behaving like Sentinel? Orion was right. Sure, maybe it wasn't the most effective way to get through to D, but regardless D has agency and he made a very deliberate and conscious decision to betray his friend and become a tyrant. That's not Orion's doing. I've also seen takes that imply it's Optimus Prime's fault that civil war happens because he banished Megatron, when it was Megatron that attacked Optimus when he returned, and it's Megatron who chooses to start the war.

Just real tired of the takes that subtly or even not-so-subtly blame Orion/Optimus for D/Megatron's own choices, or try to exonerate Megatron because he was angry and hurting. Megatron's feelings are valid. It doesn't justify his actions.

As much as I'm loving season 2, I don't think anything would be able to top this scene:

It's pure gold. The music. The flashbacks. EVERYTHING. Jinx vs Ekko will forever be the best. (the fight scene with sevika's new arm and episode 3 fight scene are close runner ups tho)

2. Trust me.

3. Had a dream about it.

4. BECAUSE I SAID SO!

OKAY! Quick rant! I was looking for an LAES episode, when I suddenly came across this channel.

I don’t know who they are, and I don’t wanna know. THEY ARE STEALING EPISODES FROM TSAMS, LAES, AND EAPS! THEY ARE TECHNICALLY STEALING ART TOO BECAUSE THE THUMBNAILS ARE THE SAME! Sure, they give credit but still! This is not cool, especially since I see more stolen videos from other content creators! Please report this person if you come across them.

im gonna be honest for a moment

i say this as a genuine fan of helluva boss. i say this is a genuine fan of Stolas. he’s my blorbo worblo silly rabbit and i will love him until i die

that being said, i cannot fucking stand what season 2 has done to him

season 1 stolas was so FUN. the posh way he acted was FUN. the way he clearly carried himself as a royal was FUN. the demeaning way he spoke was FUN. his hypsersexuality was FUN. he was genuinely an entertaining character that i not only enjoyed but honestly related to in a lot of ways

whether intentional or not, season 2 stolitz (and by extension, stolas) feels like SUCH a fucking retcon. it genuinely feels like the narrative is trying to gaslight us into thinking that stolas was always this noble hearted and humble prince when (as many have pointed out) HE VERY CLEARLY WASN’T (AND STILL ISN’T)

that and it just feels like all of the character traits from before that made him entertaining to watch have just been replaced with Sad and Desperate. im sure there’s a way to flesh him out beyond just a Horny and Strange Prince Guy. but i just cant help but feel like this isnt the most satisfying way to do it

Mantah Corps. is the villain of Camp Cretaceous but honestly, props to them for making the only not deadly as fuck hybrid dinosaur.

Like, Wu was over here making; a horror movie monster looking dinosaur that has scorpion fish DNA and kills anything with a heat signature, a white dinosaur that managed to convince a pack of four raptors to betray the man that raised them and killed an entire field of brachiosaurus just for fun, and a third hybrid that was created by using a bone from the second hybrid and was designed to be a killing machine as a military weapon

Good on Mantah Corps. for not making a completely carnivorous hybrid. Even if part of the spinoceratops/sino-spinos DNA is most likely sourced from the JP3 Spinosaurus I'm at least hoping the Sinoceratops DNA could help them be more mellow.

Also Wu should've learned his lesson the first time when his first hybrid had completely erratic behavior and tried to kill him

I'm watching mob psycho 100 and Serizawa looks so hot that it makes me ill

[crowleyholmes]

Guys help I think Crowley is possessing me I am very suddenly overcome by such a WAVE of love for Aziraphale????

I mean I've always loved him but Jesus Christ it just got turned up to 100 suddenly I mean he's just so GOOD isn't he???!!!

He's so kind and he's so nice and he's so PRETTY I mean have you seen him in his little outfit with the comfortable-old-couch waistcoat he refuses to ever take off and the silly little bowtie he thinks is so stylish and you know it actually KIND OF IS but ONLY on him??!?! and that beige coat that suits him so well and he just looks so well put together and also so soft and cozy at the same time like HAVE YOU SEEN HIM???

And he's so gentle and he's so full of love for everyone and everything and he always tries So Hard to do the right thing... and he's so ready to change his mind about what The Right Thing is when he is presented with new information like that is such a rare trait!

And he's so FUN, you know all his weird little hobbies I mean who collects old prophecy books and misprinted bibles ONLY this weirdo!! And he's so obsessed with silly little magic tricks that aren't even magic at all when he could very easily do real magic instead but noooo, making people think you're doing real magic when your Not Actually doing real magic is so much more fun apparently idk??? And he collects licenses (shooting guns, driving cars, literally who knows what else, at this point I wouldn't be surprised if my guy knew how to scuba dive and fly a plane), and he learned French the hard way just because?? He likes learning I guess?? And he's so bad at it, it's so silly it's Infuriating but it's also so endearing he's taking such JOY in it!!

And maybe you'd THINK that's all he is, sweet little goofball, but no!!!! Beneath all that soft exterior, this very intentionally soft and fun and kind exterior that he's carefully cultivated for millennia, he's also so incredibly brave. I think about how he was ready to face the thing he feared the most, to save three innocent kids. He was so ready to give up everything he had, fall from grace and spend eternity in hell, just so these kids could live. Just so that family would be spared the grief. Just so they could have a few more short years of human happiness. He lied to his boss for justice and he lied to GOD for justice and he somehow got away with it who does that??? AZIRAPHALE IS WHO. And he Never backs down did you see him pick up his little sword at almost-Armageddon when Lucifer himself rose from hell to end it all and my angel was ready to fight Satan Himself if he had to HELLO???

And then he blew up his halo and casually declared war on hell to save two humans and his former boss and his bookshop what a fucking badass!!?!?

And have I mentioned how pretty he is yes I have but it's worth mentioning again because have you seen his eyes?? Color of the fucking sky, they are, and his nose is so perfectly shaped and his stupid lips with his stupid cupid's bow, and his hair!! Is just so Damn soft it's and I just want to watch him be himself and do his thing but I also want to HOLD him and protect him and keep him safe from everything because if anything ever happened to him I-... UGH.

I don't KNOW.

I JUST LOVE HIM SO MUCH.

being in a fandom but not being an artist is physically painful. There is so much you become unable to do- mock up headcanon designs, show off your OC, tell stories in engaging and easy to access ways, join drawing trends, not be able to do any individual ideas for drawings or animations you have yourself. It feels awful, like my wings are clipped, like I am a fish in a birdcage watching all the pretty birds flying around, calling out for others to join in- oh, and how I long to.

"Ooohh but you can just start drawing and posting your drawings whenever and whatever your skill level! No one will make fun of you-" WRONG. I have had multiple bad in-fandom experiences related to posting my practice art and people tearing me apart. I have seen beginner artists and, to my horror, disected their art in my head, judging it against everything I have seen in the past. It's awful, I wish I could stop, but sadly this kind of thing is hardwired into many non-artists (and some artists as well) minds. Sure, ten people may like my art and three people may praise me, but that's unknowable amounts more who saw it, ignored it, stared at and laughed.

And if you don't have prior experience drawing, or references, or any good materials/drawing mediums? If you are unable to keep up with drawing trends? Unable to perform or render or download any art or animation software? Well, you may as well be dirt. It's honestly feels like there's a whole cultural or class divide between artists and writers, as I once said I was branching out of writing and doing art, and got so much more praise than normal. All of this feels so fucked on so many levels. There is a reason I never post my art on my blog, besides it mostly being fuckass doodles, but even the pieces I am proud if never see the light of day.

I am just sick of how you automatically become "better" if you are a talented artist, and how everyone shits on beginners.

(This is based of my own experiences and I am tagging this with my own fandoms. Feel free to add on your own thoughts and expand fandom tags in reblogs.)

Do you feel a slight pang of jealousy when people around you are very evidently loved, while you keep trying to earn the love you think you don't deserve?

[peace0ut-004]

I’ve been watching too many zombie shows/movies lately, and I don’t know if it’s just me, but I always get peeved whenever I see characters walking around with their arms or legs exposed ( even though zombies tend to bite that area)
