During some construction work a bomb from WW2 was found. And they defused lucky very quickly. But the train time table was still delayed from halting because of the defusing and also due to construction work at another station...
Next to me at the train station was a woman who said they should have just let it go boom and get it over with...... How can you be so dumb? You could have said good bye to half the city if they did that. Worse case cuz nearby is a freaking gas factory....

TUMBLR! Who's getting pregnant?
Captain James Tiberius Kirk (Star Trek)
Starscream (Transformers)
PROPAGANDA:
[Kirk]
"we can't let those tits go to waste. also he has weird alien shit happening to him at least weekly so mpreg would probably be pretty canon compliant."
"He's the OG mpreg, possibly the first mpreg fanart in fandom history is of him. He deserves this title more than anyone else."
"My mum asked what i was doing and she suggested Captain Kirk sooo… you hate my mum if u say no."
Captain Kirk propaganda from last season
[Starscream]
"He would be STRUTTING with it. He's gonna raise an ARMY of LOYAL UNDERLINGS and they're going to make him RULER OF THE UNIVERSE. also he would be fucking miserable and so so angry and i think that would be fun."
"I need need need my conniving flying bastard man to be pregnant, he'd be so insufferable about it. Can you imagine? TFP Starscream would use his pregnancy as a way to manipulate the autobots and pretend to "care so much about my precious baby" and then he'd stab everyone in the back. G1 Starscream would have a bunch of grand dreams of shaping his baby into the ultimate Megatron-killing weapon and then they rule the galaxy together."
"I need to see him manipulate someone into getting him pregnant only to abort it in an attempt to hurt them only to have no effect at all. I need this."
"He’s funny and endlessly miserable in most continuities and I think being pregnant would make him happy even if he complained about it at the time."
"LISTEN……. It would be funny as shit if all the time he tried to usurp Megatron he succeeded in the one thing he didn’t want and lost so disgracefully. And in some media interpretations having “kids” or pets mellows that fucked up prideful and very much traumatized abused but unwilling to admit it and look for help man."

He's a seeker and they come in three. He probably would get triplets
NEED👏THAT👏MAN👏PREGNANT *SEASON TWO* ROUND 3 POLL 11
TUMBLR! Who's getting pregnant?
Benjamin Franklin “Hawkeye” Pierce (MAS*H)
Soundwave (Transformers)
PROPAGANDA:
[Hawkeye]
"Literally begs men to impregnate him. He will not get married until someone gets him pregnant. Also he deserves a second chance."
"OK so aside from the fact that he canonically asks for it sooooo many times. HE. IS. SO. BREEDABLE. HE WOULD LOOK SO GOOD PREGNANT. OK. He needs it, I need it, we need it. ALSO, he got so close last year and I think he deserves a win."
"The show uses children and family as a symbol of stability, both directly and as an explicit absence (the orphans they take care of, Peg and Erin back home, etc). That stability is something that Hawkeye desperately needs and wants. Plus, he constantly talks about being pregnant in a way that implies he's actually thought through it more than most cis guys would."
"He NEEDS it okay! Man canonically wants to be pregnant! I swear he makes at Least one "joke" about it a season, if not more! He wants it so bad I truly think being pregnant could fix him! He made it so close last year and frankly it's a Travesty he didn't win in my opinion, so I'm hoping we can get the rest of tumblr to fully agree this time around!"
"He is a trailblazer in the field of men desperately wanting to be pregnant. He's begging for it. No man has wanted to be pregnant as much as Hawkeye has, and no man has begged for it openly on TV in the 70's as Hawkeye did. No one deserves to be pregnant more than him. Though there may be new contenders, we must honour our roots. The OG. Some of these contenders will have never made a comment about their bunkmate and best friend getting him pregnant, but Hawkeye has. More than once."
"He's the one asking for it, not me (constantly. he is constantly asking for it)."
"There are numerous moments throughout where he references being pregnant/impregnated, including: “you realize if my father sees this, you'll have to marry me,” “frankly, I think I'm pregnant,” “I could have had a third of a baby by now,” “sit down, your father and I will tell you what we did to have you,” and many more. He's begged a general to impregnate him. (“I know that you're a general and I'm just a captain, but I want to have your baby. I mean it, I want your baby! I'll kiss all your stars!”) One of the first things that he says in response to encountering a new character on the show, when asked if married, is “someone's gonna have to get me pregnant first.”
Children, especially to the characters in MASH, are the representation of life and innocence. Hawkeye, as a character, is defined by his love for life. He is a doctor with a vested interest in humanity, thrust into a war against his will, who does everything he can to preserve that life. Pregnancy is not only a joke to Hawkeye, or something said in passing as a quip or subversive statement, but a concept he treats with respect and dignity, and in the midst of such great injustice and cruelty to human life, carrying life into the world would help him fight just that little more against the war. In the words of BJ Hunnicutt, “All we see around here is death and destruction. Now, in the middle of an inferno that even Dante wouldn't buy tickets to, there's a little glimmer of life, thanks to you. That's not wonderful; that's a miracle.”"
"Just look at him."
"dude is BEGGING for it."
"It's what he would want."
"pregnancy is the opposite of war to him. It’s his escape that eliminates his usual coping mechanism of alcohol, his fantasy being so detached from his trauma that he won’t need it anymore. Instead of narrowly saving lives or failing to save lives, he’s creating it."
Hawkeye propaganda from last season
[Soundwave]
"He's a single father of five, surely there is space for another one."
"Do you SEE those hips?
He’s already got kids, he needs more. Especially to make up for the one who died.
Do you SEE that waist?
Evil. But like, I can fix him.
His husband (Megatron) left him for the Autobots and he can get pregnant as revenge."
"He already has a lot of kids but deserves more after dealing with the rest of the Decepticons stupidity and carrying their entire faction on his back. Also, specifically for the TFE version of Soundwave: look me in the eye and tell me he doesn’t look like he needs to get pregnant. There’d probably be a dozen different characters that’d fight over getting this man pregnant. It’d be funny to watch."
"He’d be good at it and I think it would bring him happiness. Plus a good chunk of the fandom likes to make it how the cassettes are made so why not?"

TUMBLR! Who's getting pregnant?
Mr. Ant Tenna (Deltarune)
Rung of the Pious Pools (Transformers)
PROPAGANDA:
[Tenna]
"Because he's a TV."
"I just DO, I’m unbelievably down bad for him. He 100% laid that egg that he has, Spamton for sure knocked him up and left him with that egg. Now it’s my turn to knock that TV up."
"He keeps an egg from his ex in the closet that he's ashamed of anyone finding out about, but treats as a daughter. Said egg is hidden inside his official plush. The TV is canonically eggnant. Creator also called him a handsome, apron-wearing older husband. I mean, come on."
"He’s already so desperate and needy for attention you can’t tell me he wouldn’t love it."
"I haven't even played Deltarune but the art is so amazing! it's convinced me that Tenna MUST be mpregged."
"It might fix him."
"Okay so the entirety of The Lore takes like an hour to explain so I will skip that and instead talk about the merch pipis stuff. The offical plushies merch have secret bonus stuff sew inside. For Tenna he has a pipis- something that looks like a blue egg. In canon Tenna has a special pipis he keeps safe and hidden and calls it his darling daughter. Pipis (so far) is exclusively made by a different character, Spamton. Tenna and Spamton have fraught history together to the point where they honestly come across as messily divorced. Spamton's plushie *also* had a hidden pipis inside so the meme is that they got each other pregnant."
"We need more pipis in this world <3 also Smapton."
"THEY CAN TAKE WHATEVER THEY WANT IN THE DIVORCE, BUT NOT HIS KID."
"Pipis."
[Rung]
"10 out of 10 mutuals agree: That man is submissive and breedable! People with him as a blorbo-in-law want him pregnant. My DM's are FULL of Rung Pregnant Propaganda Testimonials!"
"His special skill is making crystals that can be used to make Transformers."
"Most of Rung of the Pious Pool's narrative revolves around his ability to 'get pregnant' (as much as a Cybertronian in a species of asexual mechanicals who emerge from the ground or are constructed cold in factories can) and his lack of reproductive justice, given the Functionist Timeline. I have a 23 slide PowerPoint about him. If Rung makes it onto the poll I will polish and publish the PowerPoint as a full thesis dissertation. Threat and promise both."
"Literally his purpose, in a lore way."
THIS IS SO EVIL im sorry rung I have to vote for tenna
-he's a therapist
-he got a lot of models for different space ships.
-he essentially birthed the Cybertronian race
-Ratchet gave him a hug with a small smile (something I haven't seen him give even Optimus yet)

Steve Harrington (Stranger Things)
Optimus Prime (Transformers)
PROPAGANDA:
[Steve]
"He wants to have six little nuggets, so he better start taking things into his own hands."
"He is so mother-coded."
"Just look at him…"
"He said and I quote that he wants 'six little nuggets'. It's only right that he carries them."
"He canonically wants a litter of children."
"So he can have his 6 little nuggets. 🫶"
[Optimus]
"He's already got massive tits, and there's no way Ratchet hasn't been trying to knock him up in their spare time."
"He's The Father Figure. He is Everyone's Dad. He has an artifact that gives him the divine right of kings and is named after the Latin word for womb. He would be a tender lover and a good father."
"He breedable."
"That man's got hips and boobs for days, why hips and boobs if not pregnant material? And— I am in carnal need of seeing him bred WHAT WHO SAID THAT."
"He's the hot dad of the 80s we just need to make it technically official. And round preggers Prime is just. 🤤The man is a demigod alien robot and he plays basketball. He surfs. Please god I need him pregnant right now."
Come on Optimus you have to pull through! We're already down a man!

Captain Kirk has fallen!
Now I, STARSCREAM, am the winner of this poll!!
Shout out to the ten primate species, four bat species, elephant shrews, and the Cairo spiny mouse. Nobody else gets it
here you are sweetie
i need every transformers fan to go ahead and vote rung right now. we need to rally the troops for primus incarnate!
.
Yeah okay Ill reblog that!
Not a scholar at first, but the guy who wrote Jaws hated that people used it to justify hating sharks so much he dedicated the rest of his life to shark research and advocacy.
The woman who popularized gender reveals wishes she hadn't, afaik.
(afaik- the woman who popularized gender reveals did so because she had a long history of miscarriages. The reveal was a celebration of the fact that one of her pregnancies had gotten far enough that there WAS a physical sex to reveal. It was never intended to be like... *gestures at modern gender reveals* all that. That same kid later came out as trans and yes, the family had a second gender reveal for that lol.)
This whole thread is so beautiful to me that I can explain it
I know the name of the guy who claims to have invented clickbait, but I don't think he ever apologized.
Hey so
Uh
Remember when I suggested trans people should appropriate gender reveal parties and make them woke so the right won't want them anymore?
I stand corrected.
Trans people should reclaim them.
Oho nice

TUMBLR'S RECENT UPDATE IS AWFUL AND WE SHOULD COMPLAIN LOUDER AGAINST IT.
Hey so, I thought maybe we should participate in a blackout day to protest against the new tumblr update.
Let's try March 19. So that people have time to see this and plan for it.
Do not log in or use tumblr for 24 on this day.
Reblog this and make a tag chain to maximise visbility—the more people aware of this awful update, the better.
Circle the date on your calendar, or set a reminder on your phone. As a bonus it will be a good break from social media. Spend the day doing things you like—start that book you've been waiting to read, go outside, watch a good movie... just do anything except open tumblr.
I think we should show tumblr that we are not happy with this update in every possible way we can.
File support tickets with feedback (SEE BELOW ON HOW TO SEND FEEDBACK), post about how this update makes you feel, reblog other's posts about this update, offer as detailed and honest feedback as possible to tumblr—WE DO NOT WANT THIS UPDATE!!
Remember that WE are the end consumers.
WE build their platform, WE fill it with posts, WE are the reason they generate revenue, WE are the reason this platform has power, and for these reasons WE should feel satisfied with the service they provide. ESPECIALLY if you pay for tumblr premium, you are entitled to make a complaint about the platform you are PAYING.
I used to like tumblr and I'd like to cling to it, but this update is just horrible. It makes me not want to continue posting at all. It is utterly demotovating as-is with my being mature labelled, but this update is just intolerable. I do not know how I will feel motivated to post at all in the future if this update is not rolled back.
I know I don't have much reach, especially with a label on, but I hope this reaches at least a few people.
Please participate if you care. Please reblog and tag people you know. Send every bit of feedback to tumblr that you possibly can.
I really don't want to see my once favorite site ruined beyond repair. I really want to continue enjoying this site. I have a community of people here which I have built over years, a community which I deeply love and appreciate and cherish interacting with. My blog thrives on being able to see feedback in reblogs on my post. The whole point of posting is that people see it and engage with it. This update is at best nonsensical and at worst, going to shred off many creators from the platform and rip apart any last bits of fun we have using it.
Tagging everyone I can think of.

Okay, so according to this post, @staff says they're listening to us, so...
Sound off, Tumblr! How do you feel about the latest update to the reblog and notes?
Hate it. 👎
Like it. 👍
No nuance. Go ahead and reblog the crap out of this.
IMPORTANT.
HERE'S THE EFFECTS OF TUMBLR'S NEW UPDATE.
Here's an example to illustrate the effects of tumblr's new update.
On mobile, where I have NOT updated, and it is still the OLD LAYOUT, this is how the notes of my protest post look;
In comparison, here is how it looks on desktop, where it has updated;
To explain for those confused, what this update effectively does is cut up and divide posts per reblog with text/photos (not tags, if you only have tags in your reblog it will not splice the post, as far as I have seen)
Not only is this confusing for original posters as it does not reflect the true amount of notes which a post has accumulated (and in a way this is deceptive, as we can't know how much engagement a post has unless we individually add up each reblog that broke it up), but it will greatly compromise safety online as it will now become virtually impossible to track sources of harrassment/hate.
To break it down as simply as possible again, here's how it works:
Poster posts their post.
Reblogger reblogs with text/image, splicing the post
The parent post is separated from its offspring posts.
All offspring posts have their own notes counter, which does NOT sum up for the original poster
E.g. Original poster only sees that their post has 50 reblogs and 500 likes, MEANWHILE a reblogger (whose reblog has spliced the post) from, say, a bigger blog, can have 500 notes and 5000 likes WHICH THE ORIGINAL POSTER WILL NOT SEE ACCUMULATED ON THEIR ORIGINAL POST.
HOW TO REBLOG SO THAT YOU DO NOT SPLICE THE ORIGINAL POST
As of today, this is the information I am aware of; posts only get spliced when you add text/images, NOT when you only leave tags.
So if you do not want to splice the original post, when you reblog a it, only leave comments in tags or the comments on the original post comment section.

My protest post is here. There are multiple protests scheduled by different blogs for this week. I plan to stay offline from March 19 to March 20.
Not OTP nor NOTP but a magical third thing: I’m indifferent to your ship but your fanart fucking slaps
The trope where people don't recognize each other because it's been so long since they last interacted and they've both changed so much that they're basically strangers UNTIL one of them does their Signature Thing™ and the other just stops dead because oh. It's YOU. All at once it's so clearly you
This flavor of reblog to this post always makes me laugh so hard thank you
