because i need this for posterity: you guys DON'T EVEN KNOWWWWW the extent of my love for starscream of all bots
he has everything: the overgrown ego based on nothing, the hunger for power to fill an emotional void i don't even think he knows (or cares) he has, the campiness, the cuntiness, the trauma, the deep desire to be the cause of drama, the coping mechanisms that only serve to dig him deeper into a hole, the manipulation skills only honed by the most conniving of bastards, the absolute silliness of a mech that thinks so highly of himself but also will absolutely start sobbing and whimpering if he thinks that will get him out of trouble.
He fascinates me so.
He wants to be loved SO BADDDDD but because he's traumatized af he doesn't even conceptualize it as that, and instead he decides he wants to have power over everything and everyone. He wants to be adored and revered and to always have the upper hand. He sees someone that thinks he can be better and he takes it SO PERSONALLY that his first instinct is to kill them. "how fucking DARE you assume i'm not an evil bastard, how dare you assume i deserve your trust, how dare you assume i'm not the monster i've worked hard to be"
He's his own worst enemy. when given absolute power and everything he dreamed of, when he finally is at the top, when finally HE GETS the power over EVERYONE- he STILL. INSISTS. ON MANIPULATING PEOPLE (THAT WOULD OTHERWISE STILL FOLLOW HIM NO QUESTIONS ASKED). JUST because he will always be on fight or flight mode and he can only feel safe when he knows he has a trick up his sleeve.
and he wears a silly crown sometimes just because he needs everyone to know WHO'S the one in charge.
my god, he even has stilettos.
in conclusion: fucking everything is wrong with him and i love him so goddamn much. he's just a silly evil gay jet. he's my everything. my pretty little meow meow. he would step on me and i would say thank you.

ON THAT NOTE-
the 80s transformers movie is absolutely fucking bonkers. I have been marathoning the G1 cartoon, mostly bcus it's something silly to put in the bg while I work. and I finally reached the end of s2 and so it was time to watch the movie.
and first of all, the animation is a delight. Peak sci-fi anime visuals. It's clear the sci-fi elements were made with so much love. The funky space creatures and cybertron look so good. I am Licking The Screen bcus the animation simply looks Nostalgic and Good. There's sequences that go longer than they should but I don't care because clearly the people that animated them were flexing something and they deserve to.
Anyway. It's an extremely silly movie. The soundtrack is actively distracting because it's all rock music. and One (1) song by weird al. Like sure, I love it, but also I am shaking this movie and going AN INSTRUMENTAL MORE ATMOSPHERIC SONG SONG HERE WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE THAN OKAY.
but it wouldn't have been the same movie with those choices. truly a product of its time.
Also the introduction of roddy is so funny. here's some new guy. he has youthful spunk and a funny grandpa. He Will Be Your New Favorite. No, We Won't Elaborate Further. What Do You Mean You Still Miss Optimus.
(like, of course I still love roddy. but I already was endeared to him thanks to the comics. I cannot imagine 80s kids being happy with him after such a sudden introduction even if I still like his character).
anywho. before going in I already knew they killed most of the cast to sell new toys so I was prepared for the worst. I said "if they kill percy, tracks or rumble on screen I will Lose it" BUT GUESS WHAT. PERCY AND RUMBLE LIVE, THEY ACTUALLY SURVIVE ALL THAT SHIT. LETS FUCKING GOOOO no idk where tracks is but hey I'll take 2/3
they still absolutely vaporize my wife though. that was a thing that happened. rip starscream you beautiful queen hope I'll see you again bcus till the end you were the funniest mf. ruthless too, he threw TC and SW under the bus just so he could also throw megs out to his death. like bitch that was your trine. Iconic truly.
anyway can't wait to start s3 so I can see the og cyclo nus in action.

perused the notes of that one post and though there's people with valid points there, mostly the way I interpreted it as "stop making love disgusting by adding sex to it!" which it's a stance I don't agree with, but I can see why someone would read it and interpret it as "don't make Love something that necessarily needs Sex to be called Love" (a stance I agree with!)
but also in the context of "Sex scenes in movies" it seems more like "sex is gross and we don't need to see it on screen" which like I get it man, they can be uncomfortable especially if you weren't prepared for them but. hm. well I prefer "degeneracy" on my tv. get raunchy. make it fun and spicy (or grim, depending on the genre). my one wish is that people stopped making sex something taboo and secretive. I wish talking about sexuality was less scary! make sex boring and mundane and something no one is surprised about anymore, demystify sex to rob it of its power!
hm. probably not explaining myself very well but eh my stance is just sex in movies is not a big deal even if YES the inclusion of sex scenes in some movies/series seems clunky and unnecessary. whatever, not an issue for me.
I'm more concerned with what the media tries to say about Love and its relation to Sex and vice-versa u know? the message is what's important.
anywho. sex happens without love, and love happens without sex. that's my worldview.

honestly wholeheartedly resent this modern(?) era where s uicide jokes have become so normalized. I remember a very, very brief period of time where people online seemed to promote the mentality of "hey if you wanna get better, you have to make an effort to drop the s uicide jokes all together"
but nowadays the most prominent joke I see online is "[minor inconvenience] [immediate follow up being 'I'm gonna KMS']" or "[someone does anything] [immediate 'hey you should KYS']" and that one goes for either friends or enemies online.
and like I hate it bcus hey I do want to get better!!!! I was genuinely getting better and my inner voice had dropped the casual thought of it for the most part, but now bcus I have to read the stupid collective of s uicide jokes the internet insists are funny everyday, now suddenly my intrusive thoughts will just go "hey you should KYS" out of the goddamn blue and not because I mean it at all in that moment, but bcus my inner voice has gotten used to reading it and it picks the phrase up like a goddamn toddler that just learned its first swear word
anyway. Not much I can do about it I guess, other than quietly rationalize that "okay u don't mean it, you're just parroting back the words, you don't actually want to do it, it's okay, we have funnier jokes, and also we're immortal and we can never die, so jot that down"
still. it's something very frustrating. but ultimately out of my control.
it just makes me very sad in the end because I was getting better in that aspect and the progress I had always seems to get pushed back. alas, such is life.

life update I guess! Because I haven't written a lot here lately and it's weird not babbling about ME for such a long time on here (lol)
anywho- I don't remember if I talked about it before buuuut I got a new job! moved back to the Big City! Unfortunately moved back home but also I'm getting better paid and not paying rent is genuinely a good net positive at the moment so I'll bear with it.
sadly I left a group of friends I deeply adored and now I find myself a bit lonelier in the city (mostly bcus I went from Big Friend Group to Smaller Friend Group Who Almost Never Has Time To Hang Out).
At least I still have my internet friends and I love them all so at least I haven't felt cut off from all social activity.
Also my favorite person in the world is getting married????? (shocking...!) I'm gonna be their best man at some point so I'm Excited And Nervous!!
life sure goes on!!!
um. and also I've kept buying robot figurines to my heart's content so that's where I'm at with my life.
I want to try my hand at dating again but it's. Such A Chore to put yourself out there. But I'm hoping that the big city means I'll have a wider range of gay options. bcus I wanna Kiss a cute girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yearly Goal really.
so that's for life updates!! hope you all have been having a nice week!!

still on that Outline Grind for my ph4rma redemption arc au and-
I made myself sad while plotting some stuff
Tumblr media
*projects myself onto a villain which I've convinced myself has more depth than the one shown on the page* Let's fucking GOOOOO
I've come to this realization that my subsection of Favorite Guys with Something Wrong With Them From the IDW comics (Pharma, Whirl, Prowl, Starscream) can also be categorized as Bad Victims.
They were abused/violated in some way and instead of wanting sympathy they decided to be Assholes about it. Evil even. You can't even pity Prowl because he continues to be Detestable through the entire thing (and yet, i love him).
That was unrelated and maybe I'm projecting even more things BUT U KNOW WHAT? I'M RIGHT AND I SHOULD SAY IT. I LOVE BAD VICTIMS I THINK MORE CHARACTERS SHOULD MAKE THEIR TRAUMA EVERYONE ELSE'S PROBLEM WITH VIOLENCE.
Anywho. Back to Pharma only.
In my AU I just wanna explore more his relationship with his bodily autonomy. I want him to have issues with feeling Used. In canon he feels so fucking wronged over Ratchet stealing his hands and that has always struck me as unusual. And like, his body keeps getting Used by others. Tyrest uses him as a guinea pig because his body is forged. Adaptus literally uses his body by possessing him. I wanna argue that Tarn used him too, either by forcing him to do the tcog transfers himself or just by forcing him to go against his doctor's oath. Like, u see where i'm going? This is a constant in Pharma's life.
*pats pharma* this bad boy can fit so much Trauma about feeling like his body will never be his again and think the value of his life is tied to the things he can do
*dreamy sigh* i'm gonna put him through the wringer and destroy his beliefs about himself

ACTUALLY i have complaints related to the last post, and in order to not lose more time in bed I'll just post the TL,DR version of it:
I've seen way more poignant and beautiful inspiring raw heartbreaking spicy and dare i say, even tragic but beautiful art about the Namor x Shuri ship coming from the asian side of the fandom than from the entirety of the american fandom.
So what the hell!!! And then i went to investigate the ship tag and apparently it's because of The Discourse of the ethics of the ship. (And also bcus "um it reduces Shuri's story to being about romance" which WRONG)
Like okay valid concern i guess, but are you telling me you saw a tantalizing set up for an incredibly complex Enemies to Lovers ship where you could explore Shuri's moral dilemmas and deep thoughts about it, being the central focus of the entire development, and u went nah? u went NAH??? NAH??????
Not to mention we really had the glow up of the absolute century for Namor and u also went "i don't wanna have romantic fantasies about an underwater king/god that BENDS TO THE WILL OF ONE (1) WOMAN at all"
which really my true complaint boils down to what my actual genuine thoughts after coming out of the cinema were when i watched the movie: oh the POTENTIAL for this ship is so good! Ah... I hope people aren't too racist to completely ignore it since both sides of the ship are poc
Well guess what i AM mad that the world proves me right.
Now, to be fair (and balanced) i also went: ah but maybe I'm not seeing the fanworks overflow bcus people truly ARE burned out from the mcu (which is valid)
But still. Pissed off nashuri is truly an amazing ship to dream and make scenarios about and people just. Didn't come through on the english side. Shout out to the fic writers tho, those were the ones that SHOWED UP.
Anyway go read this artist's nashuri comics, they're in korean but they're EVERYTHING i want the ship to be:
Tumblr media
(The comic linked is about a story where Shuri is cursed(?) with gills and Namor takes her in to his kingdom so she can survive(?) and Shuri has complex emotions about what staying with him would mean for her future. At least from what i gather! The illustrations are really good at communicating the story but i don't read korean at all 😔)
Anyway i love that artist and they make such amazing nashuri comics im quaking
