lmao Ive been working on writing a fantasy series and I have this character who’s nothing like me BUT i did give him my bucket list for motivation, and a little angst. Like, he has a learning disability so he flunked out of his magician apprentencship and his biggest dream is to be able to travel the world. I refuse to look in a mirror BUT i can acknowledge why i get misty eyed writing him. just patting him and myself on the shoulder like , ‘aw. its okay buddy. Youll get there’

I’m back with more slightly disturbing thoughts about transformers.
Ok listen.
I think cybertronians should be more freaked out by the fact humans eat other living things.
Like come on, bots only ingest energon which is inanimate crystal juice, they’re regularly grossed out by normal organic functions, and you’re telling me they don’t bat at eye at the idea of their friendly little Sentient companions straight up killing other animals and eating them??? I feel like that should def cause more cognitive dissonance for them, esp autobots since they actually get close to humans.
Like I can see them being grossed out but accepting of the fact that wild animals eat each other- they are WILD animals and all, not exactly sentient or even necessarily intelligent after all. But HUMANS? The organic creatures that are the closest to them (going by tfp standards where they don’t mention many other organic species) in terms of structure and emotion and intelligence?? That has to be concerning on some level to them.
Referencing tfp and MTMTE where they have scraplets and sparkeaters, i feel like that’s what they’d kind of associate it with which would freak them out more. God forbid they hear about how common cannibalism is in survival situations, I don’t even know if they’d be able to sympathize the slightest bit with that considering as far as I know cannibalism Isn’t Really A Thing for them. That’s a thought in of itself tbh, would they be able to reckon with the concept of being so hungry you’d eat people you know, when it’s physically impossible for them to do that? How do you rationalize the choices others make in desperate situations when you know you’d never have to make that choice anyway and you’ll never have their perspective on it?
Anyways, I’m entertained by the idea of them being able to ignore stuff like nuggets or patties considering it doesn’t look recognizable as what it is but being downright repulsed by steaks, especially if its bloody or has bone visible. They don’t like the visual reminders of their sweet little organic friends consuming flesh and blood. Too freaky for them.

Happy (kinda late) Thanksgiving y'all
"At least the cranberries never made it out of the fridge this year!"
"You're still cleaning the kitchen, Jack."

I swear to fucking—this duel is tormenting me. Outline and all, I have been writing on this thing for a month. I'm officially shaming myself for stuffing a duel with too many plot-relevant elements, character moments, and card game actions. Somebody put a dunce hat on me.(Or pat me on the head and tell me to keep going, I am s t r u g g l i n g.)
Like. Don't get me wrong. Would I rather be doing anything else than this? No. Am I still acutely frustrated with how hard it is to juggle several structural writing threads at the same time, while weaving them together to form something coherent? YES.

nearing end of season 2 and spencer's addiction arc has not been resolved... now any time he's not on screen i assume he's hanging out at some virgnia flop house listening to eminem on bass boosted speakers getting a stick n poke from a gay prn star....

At the stage of “putting that guy in situations” where it’s not even interesting scenarios anymore it’s just mundane shit. I said to myself, apropos of nothing, “I wish Fugo would eat a burger” as I was driving home from work today and proceeded to imagine him eating a mcdonald’s quarter pounder with cheese.

scam alert! (image descriptions in alt text because this post is already very long)
the ask goes on for a few lines after this asking for donations. if you search aydin or aydinb01 or barisaydino2two on tumblr you can read copies of the same ask that people actually answered.
getting reblogged by @one-time-i-dreamt wasn't a lie (post here) but according to an anonymous tumblr user who sent multiple asks to different people, the ask and the og post are both scams.
reverse image searching the images in the post reblogged by one-time-i-dreamt makes clearer even that was a scam. doing that, i found these: links to the first and third images
the second image was harder to parse for but if you want to look through the guardian's now-closed, old live blog of the turkey and syria earthquakes, go ahead.
there was also a video added to the og post that's also likely to be stolen from a different source, but i think the pictures are enough proof. if anyone wants to search for the source of the og video, please do.
it's awful that some people are stooping so low as to try to profit off of a real tragedy that's killed so many people and has ruined so many others' lives. it's also awful that some people have actually fallen for this.
here's a link to the fundraiser if you want to report it. if you want to donate, donate to ahbap instead.
