when the formers are trans

i am losing my mind

Finally making a transformers sideblog since I recognize that I reblog way too much shit on my main ( @shrilleth ) to get any transformers mutuals.

i know everyone is tired of hearing it from me but i'll never be free from how people think you can only ship a het ship WOKELY if the man is a pathetic useless idiot and the girl babysits and pegs him and has the personality of a door. i promise you won't get your woke card revoked if you spend five minutes of your time to consider the girl has a personality and the guy might be a competent person. and maybe she likes getting dicked down and is a little pathetic too. have you considered also liking the girl and maybe wanting her to be a spoiled baby too? also I'll Kill You

there’s this term i coined in my friendgroup i call “the charizard effect” and it can apply to anything and everything, but it was born from me explaining my feelings about the pokemon charizard. the term is basically about how overexposure to something be it by corporate shilling or fandom prominence drives me away from really enjoying something bc i’m exposed to it so much against my will i become tired of it. it came to me bc i was ranting about how tpci does not, and cannot stop reinventing charizard, and how it is popular and obtusely included in almost every region, merch, etc in every way possible and it’s highly commodified.

i dont dislike the pokemon charizard, in fact i really like its X form, but i am exposed to so much charizard in my pokemon consumption that i cant be bothered to care for it in any more than in passing. this applies to a bunch of other stuff i’d otherwise be ok with, but i always just call this aversion phenomena “the charizard effect”

making this term has done numbers for me being able to concisely express how i feel abt something. like. its not charizard’s fault i feel this way, im sure i’d feel normal abt it if it was stripped of all this over commodification, but i cannot. hence the name

shipping a consensual, safe & sane pairing all the while i'm shaking my head in disapproval so the audience knows i still love wildly toxic abusive fictional dynamics

so my friend sent me a picture of the cyberworld toys at Walmart and they've got a new bumblebee. and for some reason they gave him the TFP/RB head??

he's so fucking cute y'all 😭😭😭 I feel like Blades right now.

why did they have to stop making bumblebee look like a weird round face gneep gnorp alien with big beautiful eyes? why couldn't he have a cute face like this in RID?????

(tracked down the full promo since we love this design)

How it feels when the sex appeal character is actually used as a character with their own personality and traits and goals and not just something the audience can goon too

y'all, how does twitter work? I've been trying to start posting on my transformers alt over there and I've started. making tweets. but nobody fucking sees them. Tumblr makes sense to me, you make the post, you put tags on it, and then people see it because of the tags. twitter doesn't have tags. well they do but you're not really supposed to use them I don't think? and they're in the actual post.

with twitter it seems like you just have to post into the void until their algorithm starts picking shit up, or start reply guying to someone who seems cool until they follow back because of your amazing personality and posting ability, both of which are absolutely absurd delusional goals to hope for.

this site makes sense. you can have intelligent discussion here. when I'm trying to have intelligent discussion I'll come here and make a long post about all my thoughts on a given subject in a nice readable order and format and then put 10 to 15 tags on it that comprise the 7 million different tags this fandom has for the same fucking character, and then post and get a hundred or so notes, and like two or three people actually saying something about the post which is where all the dopamine comes from.

but sometimes I don't want intelligent discussion. sometimes I just want to go monkey brain and fight people and that's what twitter is meant to be for but I don't know how to do it right. I want to cause problems god damn it. I'm like those people in the rage rooms who dont know how to actually rage and break shit god fucking damn it. YES POST WITHOUT TAGS TUMBLR FUCK YOUUUUUUUU

Did you know

A lot of people in the Transformers Prime fandom thinks Breakdown worst fate is being experimented on by M.E.C.H or even having his head chopped off by Arachnid.

This is not true.

His true worst fate is that the fandom majority treats him like nothing but an accessory to Knockout. All because he has something he doesn't. Flamboyant privilege.

idk man I just wanna be done holding my tongue. that's what my twitter was supposed to be for but I don't know how to use twitter. maybe adding the tfp knockout tag was a bit much but those people need to hear it

[sideburns-tailpipe-fixation]

"Man, if Knockout was in Operation: Breakdown he would have killed so many humans in order to rescue Breakdown" see funny thing, he actually wasn't in that episode and didn't do any of that shit and Bulkhead and fucking Starscream had to be the ones to go get him. and what do you think that says about Knockout as a character, tumblr user going into the TFP Breakdown tag to talk about Knockout

[segamascott]
