#gonna need to make a bot

[tashism]

he didn't mean to come inside. hell, he thought you were out — he's mad that he was wrong. he can't keep slipping up on stuff like that, knowing where you are. not because he's afraid he'll get caught, but because he's worried about keeping you safe. your dirty boots, your messy night stand, the condom wrapper on it. that must've been from friday night; friday night was the only night he couldn't keep his eyes on you. he can't help the way his stomach churns just thinking about it. did he have an ugly snare? were his hands clean? was he gentle with you?

your soft sobs hit his ears like church bells.

the floor creaks under his heavy boots as he rounded the corner, peaking into the sun soaked bathroom. this is the closest he's ever gotten to you outside of work. your head shoots up, your eyes widen, your lips part. you look like a fawn. he just stands there, calm and adoring. you're crying about nothing, you're always crying about nothing. you look terrified and he could faint — he's never seen you look so pretty. neither of you move, his fingers curled around the rotting wood of the doorway and your arms wrapped around your knees. for a second, you just stare. he can see into your mind but you can't see into his, you never will. then it's the heavy steps of a fat man, the cocking of a shotgun, and the yells of your father. you watch dodge run out to his truck, the same truck you see most nights, the same truck you thought belonged to your neighbor's boytoy.

you can't help but hope he comes back - you always feel safer with that chevy around.

🚫 Please do not make characterAI bots of my characters, no matter the reason.🚫

I kindly ask you all to please refrain from creating bots on that platform based on my characters, no matter your motivations.

I may have played around that platform myself, but I have grown quite uneasy at the idea of people interacting with my characters in a way that I cannot control. Especially since cAI is actually very bad at getting things right, no matter how much you try to train the bot to behave as you intend.

I much prefer folks who play around them with their own imagination, using that amount of information I have shown about them (Within reason of course and respecting my decisions).

If you see any character of mine on there, it's not me and they have created them without my permission.

Going into the quote page and remembering Angel tells you she's an artificial intelligence for most of the story. Probably because Jack told her to. And thinking Damn she has been getting dehumanized for years even when people do listen to her because they just assume they're talking to a machine, in a universe that already devalues robots despite their sentience. Aigh. Augh.a ugh

ITS SO...esp with the way roland talks about her when theyre planning out how to get to the bunker, its so depersonalizing. and i understand why he would be that way because he’s spent the last five years thinking shes a machine, and now a machine with malicious intent, but :(

literally every single named ai in the series shows human levels of sentience and emotional capability but they are clearly seen as having less autonomy. claptrap ofc is the most obvious answer but it also extends to felicity and balex ect. but by being forced to take the role of an ai angel also experiences that same treatment even from people she has known since she was a child. and its just. AUGH. a million deaths upon me.

i know it would only be an unnecessary pain in the ass for him if i did but it does bother me not to respond like THANK YOU SO MUCH to my gp's messages to me through the healthcare online portal thing. he has a tendency to sit and answer messages and prescription refill requests late as hell in the evening because that's when he finally has the time and it feels so wrong to not reply even if it's entirely unnecessary and he neither expects nor wants that

[venacoeurva]

I don't think it needs to be said but just in case it does for anyone super new on here, now's a terrible time to ask about buying commissions in peoples' replies unless they actually recognize you because bots are spamming image posts like crazy with either very strange poor English (not an automatic red flag but it seems like real people who don't speak English well tend to do a lot better than the bots and word things better) or excessive ChatGPT-esque compliments where there's often an excess of emojis are used in a quirky corporate or facebook boomer-esque way and they aren't all the blank accounts now. Still a lot of random jumble of 3 or 4 words usernames, though.

and ok! maybe i hate answering the sex life questions like girllll its lacking 😩😵‍💫 ‘nothing but your hand’ and a vibrator is not cutting it but ughhhhhh everything sucks and i’m back in my hometown like who’s even gay here. 😐🫤but lets not linger on that! ok but also i dont wanna talk about drinking or drugs either. ive been trying to work out more a little bit i took i nice long walk today and have been trying to do some richard simmons workouts its so like. ok come on movement! 😻 my body deserves to feel good… sleep is never gonna be a strong point but in my defense i’m not trying to limit the screen time that much and i love to sleep and nap during the day. cause im inexplicably exhausted all the time …. and well i don’t like to lie to the doctor like they need to know what’s going on 🙄 and yes i stopped taking that new medication cause it sucked badly

what do you think

Will Cybertronians be introduced to the uncanny valley when they see humans making robots?

If it were the other way around, it would be disturbing as hell to see someone huge and mechanical making a small biological contraption in the shape of you to accomplish some crooked task. Without a full mind, just with an algorithm and a simple program and nothing but it.

Will Cybertronians have an identity crisis when they find chatbots on the internet?

The autobots might not have time to dwell on this, being they are fighting a war and trying to stay hidden and kept their- I mean the children safe.

The decepticons however-

Sound wave will very much look into the internet more 👀

Do with that what you will.

me when all my selfships are very popularly shipped with other characters (I hate canon sharing)

[theweirdestroller]

New headcanon; Fixit's the first mini-con after Micronus. My guy is older than dirt.

Reasoning: We already know he's old, however, there is something he does that ages him even more. He curses by Alpha Trion's beard. You know, in the same way a bot might use Primus or the Well.

Now, there's a funny little thing about Alpha Trion in the Aligned Continuity. By the time the events of Exodus are happening no one remembers Alpha Trion was one of the 13. So why would Fixit say that?

Anyway, Fixit knows Alpha Trion, and his beard, personally apparently.

This would also make Fixit the prototype to his entire mini-con type.

ive dreamed the bothosters coming back with even worse bots twice now and every time i woke up like slightly annoyed before realizing some of the bigger bothosters and cheaters have been banned and every effort theyve made has been foiled by Valve and theyve yet to reverse engineer whatever it is Valve is using to gut them with and i start looking like this

[faiztheap]

okay so i wanna start making bots but i need ideas bc i am STUCK. I was thinking of taking a page from @zweigish ‘s book and basing them off of an album of songs… but idk

ps should i post here when i eventually make them…?

[mishkakagehishka]

I'm honestly fully ready to just call my bank and tell them to do a chargeback but i'm giving the college bureaucracy a chance first. But as i said. I don't care who does it and how i get it, those €80 are gonna be back in my bank account by the end of october or so help me

What would every Transformer’s job be if they were just doing like, community service?

Okay here’s a more specific setup to clarify what I mean more. Cybertron’s been brought back to life, though everything’s still in ruin, peace has been brokered between the Autobots and Decepticons, and now they have to rebuild Cybertron. What is everyone’s job in this rebuilding of Cybertron?

Originally this was just gonna extend to the Decepticons, like they lost the war and have to do community service as their sentence or something, but then I wanted to extend it to the Autobots as well. And also, why shouldn’t they help in rebuilding Cybertron too?

Only rule of mine is no political positions. Well, more specifically, the position of ruling Cybertron or part of it. I know logically someone needs to be running things, but it’s a lazy answer to me for the purposes of this discussion. Also no cops, Prowl needs to be doing something other than cop work

Community service is the name of the game here, even if logically not everyone’s gonna be doing that. You get the idea

Asking discord bots to help me make a decision and it’s not working in my favor 💔
