"Yes, you're a robot, I know

So is your friend

He's trying to have an orgy in the next room"

"oh Primus damn it Landmine...."

"So what the hell was that "no mates" nonsense you just said"

"....

Okay look I'm not supposed to say this outloud because its the 80's and Jim Shooter runs Marvel right now but I'm GAY

I mean I thought it was obvious but you didn't take the hint and...."

"OHHHHHHHHH

Oh damn

That tracks"

"No, Tracks is a different Autobot

Transformers can take human shape? 😲

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

Some can!

The Pretender technology encases them in powerful shells that take the form of either weird monster creatures or humanoids

Amusingly in the Dreamwave universe, it's canon that when Jazz became a Pretender, Spike was very surprised that his human disguise wasn't Black

"Jazz.....

Why are you white?"

"Oh my Primus Spike, you can't just ASK someone why they're white!"

[between-stars-and-waves]

😂

Does that make them werecars? Or carweres?

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

WERE-WHEELS :D

[iconuk01]

Later on we also get the Maximals and Predacons, none of whom take on a human shape, but given they use DNA scanners to identify new shapes to take, there's nothing to say they couldn't. Which, of course, leads to very unusual case of Sari Sumdac in Transformers Animated, who is pretty much exactly that. A protoform who scanned a human and became a human (if partly technorganic) child

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

(Hbomberguy voice) And we haven't even talked about the humanoid Decepticon in Michael Bay's Revenge of the Fa....

LETS NOT TALK ABOUT THAT

[vigilantsycamore]

Okay, so. I watched this movie when I was like 10

And while I didn't really like it (which is a hell of an achievement when this movie had giant robot fights and Linkin Park on the soundtrack, which is the exact combination that should have guaranteed a standing ovation from smol!Jadwiga)

But uh. I did like that scene. For reasons I did not understand at the time

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

I THINK I KNOW WHAT THE REASONS WERE :D

[comicgeekscomicgeek]

At least according to the novelization, Alice is actually transforming into an animatronic of Alice in Wonderland from a theme park, down to having a barcode on her neck under her hair.

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

I don't know what theme park that animatronic came from but its not one you should take your kids to O_O

[stephexmachina]

when i was a kid i was so mad all the time bc i thought someday i'd have to be somebody's wife i didn't know it was optional. is everybody reminding the young girls in their lives that it's optional.

[stephexmachina]

AND SO IS BEING SOMEBODY'S MOTHER‼️

[stephexmachina]

it is about being a woman. hope that helps!

[vibrantstarfire]

reading comprehension questions for the notes:

is wanting to be a wife and mother a requirement for being a woman?

why might OP be annoyed with replies assuming that this post is about being aroace or transmasc if a woman doesn’t want to be a wife or mother?

are there reasons unrelated to sexuality and romantic interest that might make a woman not want to be a wife or mother?

are there reasons unrelated to gender identity and expression that might make a woman not want to be a wife and mother?

core concept: what is gender essentialism?

is it gender essentialism to imply that all women inherently want to be wives and mothers? could this be what OP is critiquing?

look at the notes OP responds to. is it gender essentialism to imply that being a wife and mother is so affixed to womanhood that to not want to be those things means you’re incapable of sexual/romantic feelings, or not a woman?

what trait are you perpetuating when you assume that women who do not want to be wives and mothers must be aroace or trans? is it gender essentialism?

So in honor of One Piece officially overtaking Superman as the most sold graphic novel series under one author worldwide, Oda wrote what the One Piece is on paper, put that paper in a chest, put that chest in a pressurized container, then sunk that container to the bottom of the sea at an undisclosed location.

So if anyone out there wants to know what the One Piece is before it’s revealed in the story, they just have to set sail for themselves and find it.

disco elysium is a game that makes you feel bad for hours on end and you absolutely should play it during a transitional period of your life and when you have a lot of other problems you arent dealing with. advice from me

[wizardlyghost]

the best time to read shit like this is at a moment when it feels way too applicable to your real life circumstances

[not-your-average-url]

I miss when ads were a single click and then they’re gone. Now every ad has a minimum of three phases where you watch a video, exit the still frame of fake gameplay, and then exit the app download. That doesn’t even touch on the ones that forcibly take you to another app after opening a tab in safari without you ever touching the screen.

I hate advertising. I hate that you can’t do anything without companies jumping down your throat with mostly bullshit ads. I hate that billboards exist. I hate that every company unanimously decided to make their ads longer and longer. I hate that ad blockers try to charge you money and there are in app purchases to remove ads. I hate that my attention has become commodified. I hate that there’s nothing I can do about it.

The Amnesty International report that JK Rowling is trying to censor through legal threats.

It can also be found on Google Drive here and on Bluesky here.

[cbarc]

Please save and share this info where possible. This report has since been removed by Amnesty International due to legal threats of libel from JK Rowling. This information is no longer easily accessible.

concept art of the OCs i can’t stop thinking about right now, from a story I’m tentatively calling Eldritch Horror Magica. it’s basically magical girls but their magic companions are cosmic horror entities

[plaguedocboi]

I feel like starfish are one of those animals that are treated as very “normal” by people but absolutely shouldn’t be. Like they’re a wheel of repeating heads connected by a central stomach. They walk around using thousands of tiny sticky hydraulically powered tentacles. They have an eye on the end of each arm. Instead of having a mouth they just have an opening where their entire stomach can be pushed out to engulf prey. And they’re just allowed to exist like this. It’s not illegal or anything.

[augustdementhe]

#i feel like we should stop basing eldritch monsters on octupus and start basing them on starfish instead

^ Seconded.

Hey. Why isn’t the moon landing a national holiday in the US. Isn’t that fucked up? Does anyone else think that’s absurd?

[alagaisia]

It was a huge milestone of scientific and technological advancement. (Plus, at the time, politically significant). Humanity went to space! We set foot on a celestial body that was not earth for the first time in human history! That’s a big deal! I’ve never thought about it before but now that I have, it’s ridiculous to me that that’s not part of our everyday lives and the public consciousness anymore. Why don’t we have a public holiday and a family barbecue about it. Why have I never seen the original broadcast of the moon landing? It should be all over the news every year!

[alagaisia]

It’s July 20th. That’s the day of the moon landing. Next year is going to be the 54th anniversary. I’m ordering astronaut shaped cookie cutters on Etsy and I’m going to have a goddamn potluck. You’re all invited.

[watermelon-converse]

Hey. Hey. Tumblr. Ides of March ppl. We can do this

[emi--rose]

Hell yeah moon holiday

[hello-delicious-tea]

Ooh coming up we should celebrate

[ariaste]

PITCH: We call it Moon Day, and then every 7 years when it falls on a Monday, that's an even BIGGER deal and we call that Moon Day Monday and go absolutely apeshit about it (the next Moon Day Monday is in 2026 so we have a couple trial runs first)

[sarostheghostcat]

MOON DAY MOON DAY MOON DAY

[wafflebloggies]

moon day is 20th July!!!

[silly-jellyghoty]

Scheduling this a day earlier to remind you all and myself about the Moon Day tomorow!

[sashaforthewin]

Happy moon day to all who celebrate

[kitsuneofthemist]

This is your reminder to prep for Moon Day on July 20th.

[airagorncharda]

OH HEY, THATS TOMORROW

[arsnof]

Happy Moon Day!

[darklordreasonable]

... I guess this shows how important UN Declarations are to everyday life that no-one has yet pointed out that the UN declared 20 July to be International Moon Day in 2021, so there is absolutely a base to be building off of if people want to make this a bigger thing.

[pointless-letters]

One of the best letters I’ve ever seen just popped up on my Facebook memories. Still makes me laugh.

[pointless-letters]

As today is the 50th anniversary of the moon landing, it’s a great time to revisit Dinah from Devon’s memory of this historic event. And yes, still makes me laugh.

[pointless-letters]

Today is the 54th anniversary of the moon landing, but Dinah’s diary entry is still absolutely magnificent.

[pointless-letters]

57th anniversary of the moon landing and the best diary entry in the history of diary entries. Sit down Samuel Pepys, it’s over. UGH.
