Yes I'm still on my bullshit.
I'm a lesbian, but even I can acknowledge the raw sex appeal of this man.

Like I hope that this surprise upset drives people to try out Gundam because every series has a lot to offer. They're deep meditations on the horrors of war. They're the main progenitor of the Giant Robot Genre, and they're honestly better at it than anyone else.
Most other giant robot series just have them because woah cool robot, but Gundam has giant robots because well... the fact that they look human is incredibly important.
See, if a tank gets its tread damaged beyond repair like there's tension, but you don't feel bad for the pilot of the tank beyond "welp you're in danger"
When a mobile suit gets shot in the arm or the leg, your brain sees humanoid robot and short circuits to seeing a human get hurt. Some Gundam series like Iron Blooded Orphans and Witch From Mercury even pass that sensory feedback to the pilot so they really *are* feeling like they hurt their real limbs.
The point of Gundam isn't "woah cool robot!" It's about the horrors of war. It's about child soldiers. It's about abusive families. It's about revenge plots that would make Machiavelli blush.

WAS NOBODY GOING TO TELL ME THAT THERE’S A TFP CONCEPT ART OF OPTIMUS PRIME’S CYBERTRONIAN MODE- and no not Orion Pax’s Cybertronian mode from Ratchet’s narration- I mean THERE’S A VERSION OF OPTIMUS PRIME- THE LAST PRIME - THAT IS FROM CYBERTRON UNTOUCHED FROM SCANNING EARTH VEHICLES
Sorry if I got excited lol -He looks so good in this mode and it’s a shame we never saw this in any episodes

Optimus prime becomes a western highway ghost story.
If you’re driving in the dead of night along those long stretches of highway in the western US you might just encounter a lone big rig who will drive along side you for miles. The truckers will blow their horns as they recognize his custom paint and trailer the truck will slow its steady speed to match them. Those truckers with cbs say that there’s someone to talk to in there but he seams sad and lonely. No one ever sees him stop. Some say he’s an angel who will lead rescue workers to crashes at the dead of night. Those unfortunate enough to wander the highways at night tell story’s of the truck that stopped and got them somewhere warm and safe for the night only to wake in the morning with large sums of money in there pockets and a small note apologizing for the low sum. Children and parents smile as he always honks his horn when asked. The people of the western highways know when you see big red you’re always taken care of no matter who you are or where you came from.

I’m sorry but it’s fucking delusional to act as if prioritizing the actual material consequences of an election over making an abstract ideological “point” comes from a position of passive, moderate liberalism. I literally don’t have a guarantee to basic bodily autonomy as an American woman anymore because people didn’t take the threat of Trump presidency seriously enough in 2016. I don’t think democrats are undeserving of criticism either but if you don’t think there’s a significant difference between the parties at this point I have to assume you are not actually informed about the issues and institutions you’re discussing

the thing about jotaro/kakyoin that no other protag/rival has is that on a fundamental level they trust each other, in a way that it is generally impossible to trust anyone but yourself, coordinating their battle strategies from literally miles away, kakyoin dying knowing with absolute certainty that so long as jotaro learns what he's learned, that he will survive. and the thing about joseph/caesar that no other protag/rival has is theyre both idiots

"there's a guy in the walls" movies exist in a universe that I fucking WISH was real. imagine how easy it would be to install stuff in walls if the space behind a wall was not 3.5 inches/8.9 cm deep and I could get my whole self in there. of course that would mean a guy could get in there too, but what are the odds.
