Hello some info about me

Machinerisms here. I use she/they pronouns, some bot stole machinerisms so now I’m machinerismsx. I’m FloingMachines on AO3.

I’m finally making a pinned post for my blog. I’ve been here since 2014 and I’ve been fighting making one of these because I’m stubborn.

I’m 25, aerospace engineer and physicist, I store the stuff I like here.

No theme here! We die like men! Currently writing mainly for Wicked and Star Wars, can be talked into other things. Used to write for The 100, Wynonna Earp, Orphan Black, and Agent Carter.

I don’t use many tags, but I tag all nsfw as such (#nsfw) and my original posts (#machi speaks), asks (#machi asks), and links to my writing (#machi writes).

if you’re having a bad day just remember that glinda upland is having a substantially worse one (she just lost her wife to a bucket of water thrown onto her by a twelve-year-old girl and now she’s forever locked within the vicious cycle of her own self-curated image alongside the immense and almost certainly lifelong guilt over not being able to save her old school roommate, who came into the world unloved and left it similarly unloved. only that’s not entirely accurate, because glinda loved her. loves her. but there’s nothing heavier in this life than a love that will never see the light of day)

I find it very telling that Tamsyn Muir, who came up through this hellsite, wrote books where the evil emperor starts out as a basically okay leftist millennial tumblr user.

What makes the villain the villain (inasmuch as it's useful to examine TLT characters through that kind of simplistic lens) is that when the chips are down and he has to choose, his priority is punishing the wicked, not saving the people left behind.

I would invite anyone whose engagement with their cause consists of finding the 'correct' group of people to hate, to consider whether 'evil emperor' is the next career move you see yourself taking, and if it isn't, to gently suggest disembarking from the hate train.

Because no one wants their God King to be a tumblrina called John.

If I could directly implant this understanding into the brain of every TLT fan, by jod I would

rip to the shiori haters out there. you're just jealous that she has upwards of ten different symbolic motifs (she's a locket & she's a miracle & she's a java sparrow & she's a moth & she's a parasite & she's a car & she's a rose bride & she's an anthy parallel & she's 'cruelly innocent' like utena & she polished someone's sword every day) and has pulled at least 4 bitches (orange, tomato, moldy blueberry, brunette), all despite being a side character. and did I even mention it's a big mistake to think you're the only one who can turn into a car? she's a car now too.

the Beatles would exist in star wars but they'd be actual beetles. they'd look like the real Beatles but w like insect antenna and they'd be part of an alien species who are all musicians. they'd all have star warsed versions of their names except for Ringo bcos Ringo Starr is already a star wars name.
