Transgender day of visibility is over...

Now onto the important matters...

[wearesorcerer]

The eternal dilemma. @wearepaladin and @theoutcastrogue are my shoulder angels. Er. D&D class avatars. I say Rogue because I lack an evil Collective peep who's active to prod.

Day 25 of my vampire lady series! Another busy day for me, but I still got to draw an armored lady this time... I wonder what she should be named? ❤️❤️❤️

[i-am-wyrmdrake]

Atalanta the Unmoved is my suggestion

I still think the single funniest thing about the cybertruck is that it has all those security cameras built in that are set to activate if anyone gets too close to the vehicle...and those cameras need electricity to run, and the cybertruck is a piece of shit that has way less battery life than you'd think, so you can legit just fuck over the owner by just standing near it and doing nothing else.

Like goddamn Elongated Muskrat found a way to let us siphon gas out of a car without even touching it. Fucking incredible.

#cybertruck #surely some of these are made up #a vehicle canNOT be this poorly designed #on the other hand elon musk IS a raving moron (tags via @words-writ-in-starlight)

Oh no my dude, it's all true and WORSE.

This IS the vehicle that bursts into flames if you get the engine components wet.

The acceleration petal frequently comes apart AND gets stuck in down position.

This is a car you cannot exit if the battery has no charge or the electric components are even slightly glitchy, and all the systems are interconnected btw, so if one goes the rest do to.

There have been several deaths already thanks to people not being able to get out of these deathtraps when they've burst into flames or reverse accelerated into bodies of water.

This is a vehicle where if you slam the doors teenager-in-a-snit style they jam shut and pulling them open again rips the interior panel of the door off.

This is the vehicle with ZERO crumple zones, that starts rusting if you get the exterior wet.

This is the vehicle that looks so much like a dumpster RACCOONS are legitimately mistaking them for one and trying to break into it.

This vehicle is very literally uninsurable in most places, because all the car insurance companies have refused.

[authorgirl0131]

It doesn't even have basic safety features. Do you have any idea how basic a safety feature crumple zones are? The way the windows are supposed to shatter into tiny pieces of safety glass that his cars don't do? At this point I'm surprised he included the bloody seatbelt!

[sullina]

Elon didn't want sidemirrors on the truck but couldn't get *the regulations* changed.

The rearview mirror? Tiny as fuck, so your only real option is the rear camera. Which gets dirty often. Because it's on the outside of the truck.

I cannot even *begin* to tell y'all how much a camera and a mirror and *not comparable*. An electronic device will ALWAYS have latency, meaning by the time the camera shows you what happened, it's already been a couple moments. You just canNOT have that when driving in a car in traffic!!! A mirror simply reflects the happenings back to you, as they happen, in real time.

You also need an app for the truck. An APP. for your CAR. Like, just to charge it.

Most of the features that Elon promised the cybertruck would have, like self driving and whatnot? Most of them are not available. Yet, he says. He charged some people extra money for some of these btw. And then didn't deliver. He scammed those people, like, outright.

you gotta be fucking kidding me 💀

2-4 SECONDS?!

I was playing Cyberpunk yesterday and tried to drive normally with the in cabin camera and I looked back to try to back up but there just wasn't a rear windshield, no rear view mirrors, and I couldn't help but think "this is the future Musk wants"

[i-am-wyrmdrake]

"What are you now, just a wild thing. You, the greatest of the Lord's servants. Once."

"I was always a wild thing, teeth and fur and rage. Only the lord took my fur and cased me in steel, and used my rage as kindling for his holy duty."

"You've no more steel now, wild thing."

"But, I still have teeth and fire."

One thing that happens in the background of the story is that, sometime around the year 2090, the government of Norway decided there weren't enough Norwegian citizens floating around so they added a few generations to the birthright citizenship laws and generally beefed up that whole institution and a whole bunch of people all over the world became Norwegian whether they'd wanted to or not.

The purpose of this detail is to explain why there's a Space Viking and why it was so easy for her to find legal representation

[natalieironside]

It got real complicated, too. A whole bunch of ppl who lived in places that didn't allow dual citizenship had to officially renounce their new nationality before they could renew their driver's licenses.

[i-am-wyrmdrake]

Can real Norway do this please

[hollowboobtheory]

I have to upload this as a video bc you can see her think this in real time

[maraudingcaptain]

OP you just can't leave out this golden comment

[i-am-wyrmdrake]

This is the Joker redesign we were robbed of in Batman Caped Crusader

Best Penguin in decades and icon on arrival Harley Quinn but 80s Girlboss Joker just wasn't in the design budget

My head is killing me

[demilypyro]

I think I gave myself another stress headache

[demilypyro]

I'm not aware of either of my parents having migraines

[i-am-wyrmdrake]

Could your blood sugar be low?

[demilypyro]

I don't know

[i-am-wyrmdrake]

If a slice of bread and some fruit juice helps then it might be low blood sugar.

i dont feel confident in streaming when i feel like this. i'm not gonna be good at the game, i'm not going to be insightful or funny or interesting. i'd be doing both the game and my audience a disservice. they deserve better from me. and i dont think i can deliver

[demilypyro]

i expect my best.

[i-am-wyrmdrake]

Relentless affirmation and supportive sentiments can be less than productive feeling when our brains are being difficult with us.

Doing your best can be a result you expect of yourself, but what Your Best is can also be a resource you can expend before you need to recoup and recover.

[skyekurisu]

Hi. I'm a Mexican trans woman who lost her job and is living out of donations.

Any support towards this would be monumental and appreciated.

https://mangadex.org/group/cd2dec68-2dee-4b2f-aa6f-234f51f8e9e4/elpsykongroo

Or because of the "Yay! I'm ____" edits.

Please, if I've at least given you a smile pls consider helping me out this time. Any amount is appreciated.

Thanks.
