the reason "robot racism" is often a really stupid metaphor is the same reason that like. discrimination against demons or vampires or whatever doesn't work, is because there's often a pretty justified reasons humans are scared of vampires or robots or whatever, in a way that doesn't apply to real life minorities, like a fantasy author will be like "the reason vampires are discriminated against is because most of them and kill and eat people for fun and pleasure, and so humans respond by trying to kill them, isn't that so sad" and like no that's a perfectly fine reason to not trust vampires i think.

I support the "fiction isn't real so nothing matters" mindset but tbf at a certain point it can tip over into "the curtains are just blue" territory

new stimtoy idea: 80s-90s anime sci-fi cockpit
Put me in one of these bad boys and I will be entertained for hours
#this is what HOTAS peripherals essentially boil down to#only that they can actually correspond to visual and audial stimuli given by flight sim games#that being said it’s so worth for the right games when you want to feel like a pilot

Star Wars is truly at its peak when the droids are practical and semi-shitty looking which is honestly just to say that I get an instant boost of serotonin when a gonk droid shows up
Look at this thing it sucks and I love it

guy who posts abt his ocs like they are a very popular character that everyone has common knowledge about
#posting random snippets on BlueSky be like#though I intend it to be something of a challenge to share as much as I can through minimal verbiage#and lowkey inspired from Soulsborne item description habits

my dream as a fanfic writer is for one day, one of my fics to be someones comfort fic. like the fic that they reread when they don't feel good and want to be happy. i want my words to comfort someone one day
#ah.#I thought I had written After All to be my way of processing…well. everything that is Echo#but in some ways this sounds right too. It’s what I hope for all of my writing#perhaps that’s why I’ve found it so hard lately; that I am no longer comforted by my own words#and lost faith in it doing the same for others too
