Hey Ambulatory Wheelchair users, please don't feel ashamed if you can do things like loading and unloading your own wheelchair from your car and stuff like that. It's those small skills that mean a world of difference in freedom and they're great skills to have. Pedestrians might not get it, but other wheelchair users (me) are jealous, it's impressive not shameful!
#cripplepunk#saw someone call it the 'walk of shame' and nooooooo the fuck it aint#thats the winners walk#i bitterly kept my ability to load and unload my manual chair as long as i could and i miss it#wheelchair user

There's always a sense of "let's get this over with as I need to dump my load in your mouth" about photo day, but it's not always as palpable as it was with this stud.
Once I got done shooting, it was his turn and he wasted not time taking the opportunity to selfishly use a warm, willing mouth, to unapologetically release his dick dew into, without warning, just holding my head down and demanding I "swallow it", as he spurted his sack spew, balls deep, making me take it down.
#photo day#hurry the fuck up#I need my dick sucked#needed to unload#in desperate need#used my mouth#dumped his load in my mouth#came balls deep#take my load#made me swallow

I am way too tired/jetlagged to make this post right now, but the reason Armada Starscream is so specifically well done to me actually isn't just the way he's got more depth than just wanting to take over Megatron. It's the way he falls back on this image he has of himself as someone who is solely focused on Megatron. And he is obsessed with Megatron, but the disconnect between Starscream and his image of himself is what gives him actual depth.
The reason this is so cool to me is like, that self-image--that he is single-mindedly obsessed with Megatron and will sacrifice everything else for that goal, no matter who gets hurt--is pretty close to what every other Starscream is. (The selfishness you associate with Starscream is a little more subtle, but it's there in the "no matter who gets hurt" clause imo.)
So if you go into this as a Transformers fan, you're already expecting Starscream to betray Megatron and try to best him and rule the Decepticons. But so does Starscream, even when he's demonstrably proven to both his peers and the audience that he's more than that. It's almost like his past incarnations--or the audience's expectation of him--haunt him. It turns his own internal man-versus-self conflict into this really cool man-versus-narrative conflict.
And what's crazy about this is, through the last moments of this arc, Starscream does grow beyond the narrative we'd expect from other Starscreams! But he never admits that to himself, because it's easier for him to cling to the idea that he's laser-focused on his hatred of Megatron. Every time he helps the minicons--every time he helps the humans--even in his last words, he LIES to himself and everyone around him that everything he did was always about Megatron. Because it's easier to simplify himself than to grasp that he might be a complex character. Because he's a person and he has all the messy conflicts that come with that. He falls back on the same ideas every single other Starscream did, and THAT is his undoing. Not that he is self-centered because he's Starscream. Not that he is obsessed with Megatron because he's Starscream. That he THINKS he is all of those things and he will not LET himself be anything else.
I would argue that that's a bigger theme in Armada, as well. Optimus and Megatron more or less spend their final fight coming to terms with their story roles in Transformers. I really feel like if you sneezed on them, they would realize they do this in every universe and in every timeline. Starscream's is the most interesting example to me, though, because he's such a departure from other versions of Starscream; hell, he acts (and looks, lol) a lot more like some incarnations of Thundercracker. But he's still got classic Starscream in him in this roundabout meta reference. He's like an homage to his namesake. It's so cool! And it works perfectly with the story he's a part of.
#transformers armada#armada starscream#so. this part goes in the tags but. if you know me or recognize my url you may be going ''half life fan take''#especially given that this is by far my favorite starscream that i have ever seen#I am beating zero half life/valve gaming allegations with this one#but imo this is a reminder to me that like. the best meta media is always the kind that doesnt shout it out#i mean. generally the more you have to handhold your audience on what the media is about. the more it is bad#unless it's specifically really dialectal media aimed at young children and the directness is like. The Point#(wild robot being a good example of very obvious media meant for kids that is still clearly like. fantastic)#but in general i think meta media (metagames and the like) kinda lose their impact when you have to explain them#people forget that half life doesn't really hold your hand about this#because valve games are so entrenched in internet culture#it goes beyond ''the one free man'' as an icon - the game is about the horror of being a video game player character#and especially of being a silent protagonist#gordon's helplessness in the plot and the way he's ''the one free man'' but not free is a commentary on how games funnel you through their#stories while acting like the player character has any agency#gman's ability to teleport players around various environments and even to/from stasis is similar to how gamedevs load/unload characters#and teleport them around cutscenes and environments when the player cant see them#he gives them just enough freedom to feel natural while keeping tight control over their purpose in the story he is telling. like an author#SIMILARLY. this is why you can't do myhouse.wad again#part of the horror of myhouse.wad is the familiarity of it and the subtle offputting changes from standard doom mapping FOR DOOM PLAYERS#even down to how it was released#it isnt just a silly meta internet horror game everything about it was purpose-built to send goosebumps specifically to doom modders and#classic doom enthusiasts#ANYWAYS. ARMADA IS LIKE THIS TO ME#behind all the anime nonsense and the like 20 filler episodes in the start there's a genuinely clever commentary on like#transformers as a franchise and as a story that keeps getting retold#THERE'S MORE TO IT THAN THAT BUT YOU GET MY POINT.

do you know there’s a train in the usa where you can put your car on it. like this is an American Dream (ride train long distance but still have car when you get there because everything is far apart) BUT it only goes ONE PLACE!!!! literally just one stop on each end, washington dc to florida. knowing this exists drives me bonkers. we have the technology!!!!
#i mean of course it’s also a gazillion dollars and most hilariously#the cancellation policy is that you have to cancel or make changes at least 121 days in advance#a HUNDRED and TWENTY-ONE days#i know someone who used it and apparently it takes like half a day on each end to load/unload cars#so that’s why no stops i assume#but like surely this could be improved upon. we have figured out ferries surely we could figure this out

The Rose fucking gentrified Osprey Cove
I suppose that makes sense. I wonder what's going on with the ninjas
Oh....
Well, at least the bright side is that you can enforce a "No refund" policy and keep the gold
#dragonfable#I do hope we get to help with Shadow of the Wind Village in the future#It doesn't have to be a main story thing either#just a side story would be nice#Don't walk into the Inn#It always fails to load (for me at least)#And going into the shops tends to unload some stuff from the outside#and disables the NPC chatter

kinda important epilogue doodle:
#mp100#omori#omori game#mob mp100#sunny omori#something omori#crossover#mp100/omori#just had some other ideas floating around#I had both these parts sketched out FOREVER but I'm just getting out the Goop:tm: on Omori if you know that one post#had to stop interacting with the tags and take a break for a while#even if i had so much blocked from the tag that it would not load posts because of the gaps of unloaded posts#and all these parts end the exact same agk!#but also i just want these out instead of revising it the 5897th time#so same ending it is#hope the coloring is cool at least

In our current society (in North America and much of the western world) we can't completely avoid capitalism, but with some work and dedication we can reduce how much we have to participate in it.
Building community is hard, and it often requires a lot of up front investment in time and energy before you start seeing returns on that investment. I know not everyone is in a place where they can make those expenditures without getting anything back right away which is why it's even more important for those of us who can to start building sooner rather than later.
When you have a healthy, thriving community of people you can start withdrawing yourself more and more from reliance on a broken capitalist system. Yes there's mutual aid within a community but what's even more exciting to me is the option of participating in a barter/trade economy because it's so often more empowering for disabled folks and other marginalized groups that struggle in a capitalist economy.
And even more importantly than that, it's how we can survive a political landscape that is openly hostile to us. It's as impossible to avoid the fallout of the current political situation as it is to avoid participating in a capitalist economy, but being part of a strong and healthy community can at least help mitigate some of the harmful effects.
Neighbours sharing produce from their gardens can lessen the chances of food-borne illness as a result of lax food safety regulations.
Creating, maintaining, and sharing resources that help marginalized groups can help protect vulnerable people in your area when the larger resources are being dismantled or when people acting in bad faith are pretending to be a helpful organization.
Communities have more leverage (and resources) when it comes time to put pressure on local government to make progressive changes
As communities grow, empathy and compassion for the people in the community also spreads and that can help create allies against the bigotry and prejudice some of the community members face. When you're in community together with someone it's harder to depersonalize them. They aren't [insert oppressed group] member, they're the person who walks your dog and brings you beets in exchange for piano lessons, or the person who loaned you a spare tire so you could go to work and when you got home that evening they'd fixed your flat tire for free because they had the time and some spare material laying around from a repair they did on their own tire.
It's going to be really easy to give in to despair in the coming months and I'm not going to lie and say you can survive it. Some folks won't. I'm not going to lie and promise if you can make it through that things will get easier, they might not!
But if you can hang on I can promise you there's a chance things will get better, and I can promise you there's a whole heck of a lot of us out there trying to make sure it does get better. I can promise you that building community will help you survive when things start getting harder, and I can promise you that community can be a beacon of light in dark times, a bastion of hope in a desert of despair.
I know you're tired and I'll understand if you can't keep fighting, but I really hope you've got enough resilience left to hang on long enough to find a community to be part of.
#i don't know where I'd be right now without mine#these last few months alone I've had so much help#from people getting me to and from my weekly hospital appointments#to folks helping with my move#either offering their time#or supplies#i had a bunch of people searching for places in my budget#and making lists for me#and even had one person offer to let me use their 40ft trailer/fifth wheel#and the place I ended up living#is building an addition onto their house for me to live in#it's not gonna be a huge space#just under 300 sq ft#but I'll have full use of the rest of the house too#and be paying less in rent than I was even before the rent increase at my shitty apartment#i have people offering to help me do household chores#and people offering to help me fix my car#folks don't have extra cash to help me pay for stuff#but they're happy to offer their labour and time and skills#one friend lent me use of 12 bigbplastic totes to help me move#and another paid for a bunch of uhaul boxes for me#the people I moved in with let me use their 3 horse trailer so I didn't have to pay to rent a van/truck#and I had a bunch of people helping me load up and unload the boxes and furniture#it took a long time to build this community I'm a part of#and it took awhile before I started seeing a return in my investment of time and energy#but it was so#so worth it

almost all of my books are completely lost ever since we moved in November and every couple weeks it hits me REALLY hard.
#they made it here. I know they did. they have to have because I loaded the trailer at the old house and then unloaded it here.#but they aren't in my room. they aren't in my sister's room.#my sister is saying they're in the storage shed but that means they're completely inaccessible#because we had to shove everything in there VERY quickly before snow flew so nothing is organized and to get anything out#you have to get EVERYTHING out#so... idk#sighs

sooo crazy to me that as far as i can tell THREE people were home all day yesterday but i still came home to overflowing trash overflowing recycling overflowing sink of dirty dishes and an untouched clean dishwasher. like this is not a frat house. this is pathetic
#one of the three people is a guest who's been here the better part of a week and that was also pitched as 'a few days'#personally if i was a guest for the better part of a week i would be OFFERING to take out the trash#one was a guest and one was working from home but idk what the hell the other person was doing (she did bring in my ac delivery)#but like come on. you can take five minutes and take out the trash#especially on TRASH DAY. like get it fucking together.#chatpost#i was just thinking about it this morning as i loaded the dishwasher again. i took out the trash & recycling yesterday too#although my other roommate (wfm) did unload the dishwasher this morning. so thanks for that at least#she does pull her weight it's just the other one is really beginning to piss me off#but even if the wfm one does usually do chores it's still insane to let it get to there. imo. whatever

I’d love if my housemates didn’t seem to be allergic to cleaning any dish that isn’t theirs
#I am the main person who loads and unloads the dishwasher#the problem is that there are dishes in the sink I can’t touch without having a meltdown over it#and you’ll never guess which dishes the knives are under#anyway I chopped carrots with a butter knife today#don’t recommend#would love a real knife#j rambles
