how i imagine Minecraft Alex's personality to be like vs how i imagine Minecraft Steve's personality. duality of minecraft
#pinyatart#minecraft#minecraft steve#minecraft alex#im pretty rusty with drawing humans rn hhhhdhhhhsss..........#how i see it........#alex represents survival mode. she's more serious rational and focused on getting the resources needed to survive in an endless overworld#while steve represents creative mode. he's laid back chill and doesn't give a fuck and makes whatever stupid shit he feels like making#much to the annoyance of alex. he takes things way sillier than she does. they still kiss tho lmao#she sees an undescribable beauty and horror to the great twisting wilderness around her. he sees somewhere to fuck around and have fun in.#alex is a pro at survival and fighting while steve despite seeming pretty lazy is actually really fucking good at programming redstone tech#which kinda outstands alex cuz she always found it very difficult for her to wrap her head around with all those moving parts to it n such#alex is just pretty good at crafting weapons and survival gear. steve crafts the silly dumb shit for entertainment#anyways end of tag rambling seeya

Zorin OS's auto-brightness feature has this bug that I like to call "Brightness Runaway," where, if it's semi-dark in the room you're in, loading a webpage with a Light Mode UI will throw enough light onto you (and the things around you) that Zorin OS will think it suddenly got brighter in the room.
That causes the auto-brightness to raise itself, which causes more light to be thrown into the room. That causes the auto-brightness to think it got even brighter, which causes it to raise the brightness even more.
The brighter it gets, the more auto-brightness tries to raise the brightness, and the more auto-brightness tries to the raise the brightness, the brighter it gets, so eventually you end up sitting there like:

Did I ever tell y’all Tekoha has kids? Idr tbh but I'm doing that now lol
They’re twins; Tefke and Safiya!
More info in the tags ↓
#Tekoha (Kheprriverse)#rambling mood today#i decided on a whim to work on Tefke’s ref last night as an indulgent thing since ive been working on comic pages all week#and i havent given him or safiya any attention sicne i first designed them#theyre twins but theres no ‘whos gonna take over the throne when the time comes’#because twili just live an incredibly long time. so theyre both kinda doing their own thing#but the answer would be Safiya#Safiya is a researcher focusing on the relationship between tech and magic#Tefke went military mode and trains army recruits--much like his dad he doesnt have very good magic attunement and makes up for it in comba#tefke is also resident little guy#Tefke is gonna be the one with a little bit more spotlight tho coz of the current conflict but i promise Safiya will appear as well#i'll share their wips soon when theyre both done. but if yall wanna see Tefke early just lmk ig

Don’t you love it when a first-world country that’s supposedly a world power is still using airport security technology from the early 2000s? It’s actually embarrassing how bad it is… have we really learned NOTHING in the last 20 years
#this is not the first country in said parameters that I’ve noticed this with#but maybe things would move smoother if you had better tech I’m just saying#Ruthie’s in vacation mode#ruthie rambles

Hey btw if you wanna mess with people, you totally shouldn't go into one of the big three browsers (Chrome, Firefox, or edge) and type into the address bar 192.168.1.1, put a wifi username and password in, then start absolutely fucking with it by lowering the amount of allowed users to 2 at a time or logging users out every 10 minutes or blocking URLs or--
#sincerely#your tech nerd that should not have become a tech nerd#because man is it easy to fuck with people when I can access their WiFi and computers#toby rambles#make sure to password lock all your devices and have a short timer before sleep mode kids#this totally isnt a default gateway that I was trained to use if I'm configuring a corporate wifi network#and this totally doesn't work for personal area networks (home wifi)#have fun :)

Hello there! What software and brushes do you use for drawing? Brushes look familiar for me so I just curious :3
Hi 🤩 I mainly work with Procreate on iPad Pro with the basic brush set. That’s the short answer to give you the opportunity to zone out for the incoming bunch of an artist‘s love for their tools and special features (*Bad Batch Tech infodump mode inhale* ☝️🤓)
Thank you for this question, now get yourself a big mug of caf ☕️ to get rambled because I love to talk about details with a lead to the special meaning behind 💫
🖌️ The watercoloury outlines brush which I favor for my underrated clones artwork series is named Pine and the chalky, flat or often cloudy background color brush is named Oberon, both from the brush set ‚Zeichnen‘ (drawing) – I don‘t know the original brush names ☺️
🖋️ Clean, dynamical outlines and speedy shading (especially my beloved crosshatching for dopamining ✨) I love to do with a brush from the ‚Tinte’ (ink) brush set, the German name is ‚Tuschezeichner‘ what means technical pen, but for me that’s quite irritating, because it doesn‘t behave like the technical pens I use 😂
…why do they translate them at all 🤷🏽♀️ but maybe I use them not like others? Is that possible? Why do they translate some of them but not all of them… Eo, careful with your digressing sentiment bunnies lollopping in every possible direction…
☝️ The small divider is made with the Pine brush and the big divider is lined and hatched with Tuschezeichner and colored with Oberon ☺️
🎨 And last but absolutely not the least I use the Airbrush for soft and non-pattern or structural coloring, especially the lighting in the faces and the eyes coloring for gaining this deep glowy shine which is so important to me 🤩 big shiny eyes to make also the beholder‘s eyes shine! ✨
If you got until here thanks for reading and I want you to know that this unlocked some art self-reflection rambles in my brain I wasn’t aware having this in myself what I‘m very thankful for, but this will be some more text 😂

More tfa Reverse au sketches and rambles. Here's the first post for the initial info on all of this


I dont exactly have a plot idea for this au yet, just mostly silly interactions between the characters. I'm still a little lost on what to have the decepticons doing in this. I have some slight ideas though, just might change up some details later
It makes sense for the decepticons to also be humans in this au. The initial idea I had was that Megatron owned the corporation that paved the way for technological developments in the city. Of course, Megs isn't the scientific mastermind behind it all. He just happens to own the company. Starscream and Blitzwing act as the head scientists, and Barricade is head of security. Starscream is constantly trying to think up ways to take over the company himself while the others are content to keep working under Megs. After all, he doesn't restrict them on how ethical their experiments have to be.
Sumdac himself, I haven't quite decided on yet. The lot that Ratchet's and Prowl's establishments are located in definitely has more than one store, so one idea I had was for Sumdac to stay human and own an electronics repair shop. Perhaps he misses Sari's initial landing, but the gang ropes him in when she ends up needing specialized repairs. Or, alternatively, he could be Sari's cybertronian dad, stuck back home and worried over how his daughter's first mission is going. Although he wouldn't be super involved in the au if I went with that idea.
Swindle is the owner of the local pawn shop, also in the same lot. He rarely seems to ever show up to work, leaving the shop closed for several days in a row. Sometimes even for weeks. It's a wonder to everyone how the pawn shop still manages to make a profit when Swindle is constantly on his 'overseas trips'. Bee and Bulk have swapped plenty of theories on what they think Swindle really does for a living, such as being a secret agent, or his store being a front for secret military experiments.
Thinking more of the lot they all work in, I'm calling it the Tower Plaza. Sort of drawing off the idea of Sumdac Tower from the show, and yeah a little inspo from OK KO I have to admit. The Tower Plaza gets it's name from a tall, abandoned clock tower that stands as the icon of the area. The clock hasn't worked for years but no one can afford to own or repair the building. This ends up becoming Sari's main hiding place. Bulk and Bee help her to spruce things up inside, making her a real home away from home. There's even a big basement door she can hide out in when Meg's men start poking their noses around.
Speaking of Megs again, his goal in this au would primarily be to capture Sari and have his scientists reverse engineer her for their own advancements in tech. Pretty much exactly what Sumdac did in the show with Megatron himself. Although while Sumdac had empathy for Megs when he was found to still be alive, Megs in this cares not what happens to Sari in the process. He doesnt see her as a living being (yet), and mainly just wants to advance his company for even higher profits.
And thus comes the conflict between the Tower Plaza gang and uhhh whatever I end up naming Megatron's company as.
Smaller notes:
•Folks on discord helped me out to find the PERFECT alt mode for Sari. That is, a Folland Gnat fighter aircraft. It's small and speedy and just really fits Sari's vibes
•Bee personally takes it on himself to teach Sari as many human curse words as possible. Orion nearly has a heart attack the first time he hears Sari swear
•Bee is also the one who came up with nicknames for everyone. Although Bulk is the one who came up with 'Bee' for him
•Orion was a second lieutenant before he was discharged
•Orion doesn't like to talk to anyone about why he was discharged from the military. Uncle Ratchet knows it involved another lieutenant and an intelligence officer, both friends of Orion. He doesn't know anything past that.
•Cybertron is not at war in this au, meaning the factions of autobots and decepticons don't actually exist. The need to hide the Allspark was more to keep it away from other alien races who would like to steal and misuse it
•Sari is only minimally trained for combat scenarios. With the occasional battle while on Earth, she asks Prowl to teach her some hand to hand combat. After an incident where she nearly took out a building, they now train far out in the woods

#transformers#tfa#tfa reverse au#my art#traditional art#ratchet#optimus prime#bulkhead#bumblebee#sari sumdac#transformers au#humanformers#maccadam#i still dont know what the maccadam tag means but i see lots of tf artists using it soooooo

Archie and Maxie related headcanons I’ve had for a while
I have more than these that are closer to game info but unfortunately they are spoilers for my emerald comic. I want to ramble about them regardless so have like loose thoughts and stuff that’ll never get explored properly in said story lol. Some are hardenshipping and (very little tbh) team related stuff as well :)
Archie grew up somewhere near slateport, and spent a lot of time at sea with his adoptive father, Mr. Briney
Archie, Shelly, and Matt are basically siblings, they met as children and lived alongside/near each other up until they did their respective studies.
Maxie grew up and lived in Fallarbor town, his mother is a businesswoman that visits every month, while his father is a local street chef. He learnt how to cook some really good recipes but his cooking skills are limited to those dishes.
He was at one point Courtney's brother figure, he kind of still is but both are a little too caught up on work to properly hang out like they did.
Tabitha is the most emotionally intelligent of the magmas, he’s the HR guy with a psychology degree.
as much as he doesnt want to show or admit to it, Maxie has a mischievous streak. He's capable of making logically and morally questionable decisions (as seen in games). Most of the time he's prepared with an elaborate excuse, though.
Archie's cheerfulness is genuine, but he's got a lot of spite and real cold bitterness in that heart and if he feels like its necessary, he will let you know.
Archie has little spice tolerance, Maxie found out about this when he cooked for him at some point in the past
Archie and Maxie share an interest and taste in jazz, especially instrumental ones. Archie learned to piano at some point in his school life, and Maxie is decent at the violin
They met pre-college. That three-four month break before attending college was absolutely bonkers for them and you can say they had a pokemon adventure of their own
that point is when they grew their teams, became pretty damn good trainers, and became good friends.
They got together a few years into college
due to some unprecedented events a good 4-5 years into work (like age range wise about 27-28ish) and differing opinions on how to move forward from said events, they broke up. For the better, allegedly.
Maxie's love for ground types, similarly to Archie stems from loving his hometown and the place he grew up in. Yeah its dry and hot and somewhat unfriendly but it's familiar. Also Numels are just cute.
Archie can drive a boat, he's got a good intuition and can basically predict weather, mostly based on observations of how the wild pokemon are acting. He also has a pretty good grasp on memorizing places and usually can tell where they are in the ocean.
Archie has little to no memory of his biological family, but he eventually understands tgat he's most likely from pacifidlog, and that it doesn't really matter because he's got a perfectly good dad right there.
Archie and Maxie had to deal with long distance at some point, back when they didn't have advanced Pokenavs with good signal tech. Because they think it's kinda fun and sweet, Archie and Maxie communicated through letters. Peeko delivered them.
Maxie dresses masc in a way that he kind of only has two modes: Asian father and Business work man. He can have a sense of fashion but he barely explored that front and at present time prefers to be more practical.
Archie on the other hand is more creative and explores several styles. He sticks to blue most of the time, though.
#ghostuff#ghostyaps#magma leader maxie#aqua leader archie#hardenshipping#I have more#but I forgor#im putting this one in the tags but because of projection reasons they are southeast Asian coded to me lol#Hoenn just is the closest region we’ll get to a southeast Asian region

I want to ramble more about single father D-16 and Chip.
He works really hard just so that his sparkling doesn't have to endure the danger he does, and Chip can persue the sciences like she wants to, especially when she's just starting out in the world and is small.
Chip is super infatuated with becoming a tech, or engineer or even inventor. But d-16 pushes her towards being a medic because it's more realistic. (in tfp & TFA she goes down the medic route for a bit before standing up for herself and that she wants to actually build things not just be support)
D-16 dreads having her end up in the mines. Whilst good old law breaking uncle Orion is always pushing her to chase her dream no matter what and giving her new little trinkets and such to tinker with, using tools D-16 probably salvaged or built, and ones Orion probably stole from the mines..
For her alt mode? Something a speedboat maybe. Like a rescue boat, or rescue helicopter but maybe she scans something else after finding her new path as a scientist
I'd definitely say her weapon would be a sniper rifle. And D-16 definitely cried tears of joy when she got her cog even if the moment is somber in that he is banned from iacon with he rest of the cons.
I'm not sure if she'd get radicalized like D-16 was during the events of TFone, but I think she'd definitely be upset seeing what he turned into whether or not she ended up going with him. I think it would just be upsetting to see such darkness bore into your sire's eyes.
I think if she went with Optimus he would encourage her scientific capability, whilst going with Megatron her medic role and her role as a sniper/gunner as a soldier would be pushed on her a lot heavier for 'the greater cause'

Yummy gamer brain rot! I love the idea of cockwarming Idia while he games. Do you have any more pathetic gamer boy ideas to share?
I always have concepts for Idia hehe!!! :D but which type of Idia would you like to hear about? The one who conditions you to rely on him for everything and anything, who is so gross and disturbed, who has too much power when you combine the degenerate hentai fantasies with big brain science....... or the one who is very bad at interacting with you in social situations, so he stalks from afar and only ever watches you through screens. He keeps putting off kidnapping you because he's anxious (not because he'll be kidnapping you, but because you'll be so close to him and there won't be a screen and anonymity to separate the two of you)......
Although maybe these Idias can be the same. (˘ ˘ ˘) aaaa but I think Idia hits differently when he's in Man of STEM Mode!!!!!! >0< either when he is rambling about the scientific process or about his own hobbies, the passion is always enjoyable!! I think arranged marriage is a fun trope to explore with him because his mother is so sweet and bubbly, and it's more so a case of her shipping you and Idia (lol) and wanting the two of you to be happy together. You visit the Shroud residence for dinner on the occasion when both Mama and Papa Shroud's schedules have opened up and she cannot stop eagerly rambling about how cute you and her precious Idia are, much to Idia's embarrassment!!!! She is his number one supporter; she wants Idia to have his happy end no matter what. :D
She'll always want what's best for her boys, so maybe she turns a slight blind eye if Idia's behaviors are...a little concerning. I think she'd be such a soothing presence if Idia knocks you up (whether you were willing or not in this endeavor). If anyone's going to sympathize, it'll be her, surely! And she does. Kind of. ;;;; she just sits beside you and has you rest your head in her lap if you're feeling up to it, and she shares all kinds of stories from when she was pregnant with her boys all while patting your head and assuring you you'll be a lovely mother. THE CONDITIONING ON THAT LEVEL....... and it would be so unintentional and unconscious on her part because she's just so happy for you and Idia, even if she only knows a small sliver of the story (or perhaps she suspects it), and she doesn't want you to stress yourself out with your own worries. From one mother to another, you'll do great (and it kills you inside because she genuinely means no harm with her cheerful support).
aaaaa the conditioning......... >_< and then of course it's impossible to escape. When everything's so high-tech and there are cameras and robots everywhere and the Island of Woe is so remote and difficult to leave??? That's basically pitting a level one character against a level 100 boss and expecting to come out victorious. You're so trapped but also so loved by the Shrouds. It's overwhelming.
#twisted chit chat#i need to write this yan!idia fic as soon as possible...... clawing at the walls and gnawing on the bars of my cage orz#'heavenize' is definitely on my to-write list because it has lots of dark tropes#i have another yan!idia wip titled 'poison frog parfait' and i want to write it because of the symbolism hehe#and i like the reader's characterization in that plot#she's very sweet and likes poison dart frogs and idia's so obsessed with her ;;;

Ehi there! I am here to ask about the robot Au Vat7k, what's your vision sir?
i give u a blanket and some rat treats while i set up my presentation
SO
im expanding on some stuff from my original ramble (which ive just reblogged so it'll be right below this post)
robots in general arent Great. even if you ignore the fact that theyre often going ballistic now, theyve been the cause of poverty for humans quite often- especially in bigger kingdoms FILLED with industry (hugo's kingdom!) so in a lot of ways hugo's hatred for robots (which, in this au, are not usually sentient) is kind of warranted
but also theyre going ballistic now
varian's dad i think never fully felt comfortable with ulla's idea of pretending varian is human. but because she was the scientist and he respected her, he keeps it a secret from varian regardless
after varian's code basically "breaks" (the one that keeps him from noticing his robotic traits- such as seam lines on his body), he exhibits more obvious robotic quirks n stuff. he sparks a little when getting flustered, etc etc. sometimes its cute and endearing like that, other times its something maybe more alarming
the Possession of varian is similar but instead of being eternal library magic- she transferred her "soul" or whatever into a sort of Ancient Device sort of thing within the library. so, still magic, but there's some technology involved this time around. this means she takes over varian's consciousness and he goes Killer Robot Mode basically. i think her plan is to also have him control what is essentially the main center of all the robots' programming. which in turn means she's controlling it. bc the eternal library is both magical but also scientific- and has more high-tech stuff this time around (think dnd-styled mechanics)
hugo kisses that damn robot

Adventures of a not so average Voxtech employee : Chapter 1
You're an average corporate slave in hell to the most popular place of Voxtech. However, will you continue to be a basic worker when you slowly are entangled in your boss's personal situations?
Most of these chapters will be kinda stand alone, though connected through an over arching story, more on my ao3 when I can!
Word count : 1.7k
Life in hell wasn’t THAT bad. Well, it was still hell, but you’d come to appreciate the afterlife you’d made for yourself. Considering the unfortunate circumstance, you were able to find comfort in the twisted familiarity. It felt like being trapped in a tidepool, where the ebb and flow of the water brought fleeting moments of relief from the frigid depths. Yet, in this hellish existence, there was no escape from the relentless cycle. At times you weren’t drowning in the anguish of your existence, but just like the ocean's chill, you felt a constant, dull pain. But things had been worse before you got this “job”.
You had no purpose for quite some time. Running around in search of suitable shelter each night, scavenging for food, and busting your ass to avoid bigger, more powerful demons was no way to live. Even now, you were new to hell. It had only been about a year since you died and fell into this horrid place, and for a few months, you were scrambling for a scrap of stability. Then in a turn of luck, you landed a job as a janitor in a Vox tech store, then worked your way up the totem pole (which wasn’t too hard when the boss of that store fired and killed people left and right if they looked at her funny) to where you sat today.
A cubicle in Voxtech’s news script writing department for!
MUCH better than when you had no job and no place to sleep! Now it was just a 5-minute walk to the Voxtech building from your apartment every morning, work until you’re done, and hopefully get back home before 3 am! You weren’t so lucky this time, but you had accidentally fallen asleep on your 30-minute lunch break and turned it into an hour and a half, so maybe the overtime was karma.
You sat hunched in your chair, a fluffy blanket from home wrapped around your shoulders, and the taste of cold coffee was on your tongue as you typed corrections on the last of your assignments. When you discounted the burn of the blue light in your eyes, you entered a meditative state that combined focus and dissociation into the killer combo known as your “work mode”. It got you through the days, nights, and mornings you spent doing overtime with no extra pay. Your eyes wandered to the clock in the corner of your screen.
3:15 am
Eh, not as bad as it could be.
Even once you finish this, you’ll probably end up sleeping in your makeshift office bed, which consists of your blanket and a flat-ass pillow being shoved under your desk so you don’t have to deal with going home just to come back in 3 hours. You stretch, pushing your rollie chair away from the desk and groaning at your stiff joints. You stood up and looked over the rows of dividers to see empty cubicles. This was probably the first time in forever that you had been the only one in the office, even at this late hour. The glowing of your singular computer screen and the hum of the AC bordered something you’d see on a Lofi study video, bringing a sense of comfortable isolation to your dead heart. That was until you heard the clicking of shoes against the office floor and doors being slammed.
“Mother FUCKING useless pieces of shit! The one day they say they can come in for maintenance checks and their sorry asses flake AGAIN?! I swear to Satan I’m sending someone to burn down that company for making ME do this bullshit myself because like hell am I gonna deal with shit in my company not working and costing me money-”
You froze at the aggressive rambling as it approached your station. You slowly sat back down and turned off your computer, sitting silently. Your fingertips brushed the handle of your bat, which you kept under your desk for cases like this. In case one of those nut jobs with much less sanity than you decided to throw themselves in the building and go on a rampage. You gingerly picked the weapon up as the angry ranting got closer. The footsteps crescendoed until a figure was nearing the opening of your cubicle, and you shot up, bat drawn back ready to swing.
The TV demon screamed, jumping back in a laughably cartoonish way, arms over his face and one leg off the ground. His screen buffered, his scream lagging while a code ‘HOLY SHIT’ flashed across his screen.
“AH SHIT! What the fuck are you doing here?” You stood there in the dark for a beat, before putting the bat under your desk and turning your computer back on.
“Work.” You yawn and sit back down. You accessed the man, your brain slowly catching up to reality despite its drowsy fog.
TV demon…loud…angry…oh shit this is my boss.
In your entire time working for this man, you seldom saw him in the flesh…or, circuits rather. That made sense, he’s VOX. Owner of Voxtech, one of the most powerful overlords in hell, and from what you could tell, a workaholic. He built this empire that you only played a minuscule part in. It was something to marvel at, if you thought about it deeply enough, but you also knew he had a habit of slaughtering anybody disrupting the machine he kept so well-oiled. Maybe that’s why the manager of your department was such an asshole all the time, but you’re sure that she was born to play the role of a narcissistic, cold-hearted bitch. All that aside, you didn’t want to set off the big man who controlled your life standing right next to you, so you just sat in your chair, awkwardly waiting to be spoken to again.
“And your “work” has you sitting in the dark with a bat like a lunatic?” He groaned and rubbed his face. “I mean seriously, I’m surprised you’re still here when I specifically told everyone to get their asses out of this office before 3am.” You squinted in confusion. You were never usually told to leave by a certain time. Everyone above you
ALWAYS wanted you and the other corporate slaves working around the clock to keep making money. You quickly opened your email.
Nothing about that in there.
Maybe they had an announcement that you just didn’t hear? But you’d been working your ass off the whole day and didn’t-
They had a meeting while I was asleep on my lunch break and NOBODY TOLD ME ABOUT IT?! These people really are fake as hell.
You knew not getting screamed at and almost killed by your boss for your unprompted nap was strange. She must have just let it slip so you’d have to deal with someone much worse. Vox was looking down at you with a furrowed brow and tapping foot. You considered your options, and the most rational thing you could think of was just to try and slowly extract yourself from the office. You grabbed your phone and turned off your computer, keeping your gaze down as you attempted to creep away.
“I am looking right at you, stop trying to sneak away as if I can’t see you.”
Well, there goes that plan.
Halting your movements, you began mentally preparing to be maimed. After all, it wouldn't be the first time that happened to you in this office. Your manager handed out physical punishments like candy, and while she had never killed you and forced you to respawn, you had been given horrific injuries countless times. You turned back to Vox, studying his form in the low lighting. He didn’t look THAT mad, more like he was contemplating something. His scrunched expression morphed into a charming smile, the one he’s known for. Was he about to use his eye on you?
“I could use your help with this inspection I’ve gotta do. You know this place best after all.” It was not a question, and since you were just preparing for a second death, you’d take this option with no complaints. You gave him a nod and he clasped his hands together, before grabbing one of your shoulders. “Greaaaat,” His smile dropped, “Let's get this shit done with.”
You proceeded to show him around the office, stopping at places that could be hazardous and require maintenance. The lights, electricity, and everything else that made this unit function was in order. You were only checking the places that made this place run smoothly, but that was to be expected. You ended off your maintenance tour by turning on every single computer to make sure they were functioning. You had only gotten through three when suddenly the office exploded with white light. Vox shot you a cocky smirk.
“It’s much faster that way,” He held out his hand, blue claws sparking as tiny bolts of electricity danced between his fingers, “but your manual technique was cute enough.” He stomped and let electricity surge through the floor again to shut off all the computers. Then he scoffed and pulled out his phone, texting someone aggressively. “Thank god that’s over with. I’m out, you should be too.” He pocketed his phone and began striding out the door. “Oh, and thanks for the help or whatever.”
Just like that, he was gone. A breath of anxiety pushed out of your lungs, one you weren’t even aware of until the pressure of Vox’s presence was lifted. You had expected much worse. After all, the consensus among you and your peers was that he was a massive prick. But at least he didn’t grab you by the horns and throw you around till they cracked like your manager.
“…mission successful.” As you mutter under your breath some passive-aggressive comments you'd like to say to your colleagues, you gathered your belongings to head back to your apartment. Nearly stumbling over your improvised bed, you briefly consider just crashing there for the night. Mentally though, you’re so far gone that you might end up doing yourself even more of a disservice by staying. “Fuck it, I’m going home.” You chug the rest of your watered-down coffee and throw the mug in the office kitchen sink.
As you stepped out into the vibrant streets of the entertainment district, you savored the moment when you closed the back door to the Vees' headquarters. There’s nothing like the sound of the lock clicking when you turn your work key in the knob and head off for the night.
I'm gonna make multiple chapters and post em on Ao3 whenever I get around to working on it. Links here!

tags from @itissadbutitsmy-life on my islands post

My response. I have sooooo much to say on Martin oh boy. Islands recontextualizes everything we knew about him (but especially The Visitor). He goes from just a ‘bad dad’ to someone with a huge amount of depth. Uncivilized Elk made that one really great video about this.
It fucks me up so bad how raw Finn’s talk with Martin is in The Visitor. Martin is so used to lying it genuinely shocks him to hear himself tell the truth about how much he cared in that moment. In his retelling he refuses to see himself as a hero, he downplays the whole thing. This event changed the course of his life and gave him horrible trauma. When telling the story he tries to emotionally detach himself from it. He refuses to bring up too many memories. Adventure Times uses silence really well and those small awkward moments or the repeated phrase “Thats… true?” are really the things that stick and leave me so distraught (the aftermath of which you are seeing here)
Minerva and Finn are left thinking he abandoned them, and he is so scared of confronting his past that he actually does end up doing that. He burns all his bridges. Being a good person never worked out for him so he keeps on running, keeps on looking for his next big con. If you keep on looking forward you never look back. HE NEVER TELLS THEM. HE DIES (or gets “given a new mode of existence”, but functionally he is dead) BEFORE ISLANDS EVEN AIRED. WTF MAN. I love this show so bad except I also hate it because now it never leaves my brain.
I really wish we had more on Martin’s space adventures, during the show earth is just beginning to establish contact with other planets. And by just I mean JUST, as in- we see rocket ships being reinvented. (with the exception of Mo Co, they had rockets but also Moe predates the Mushroom War and is super secretive so Moe having space tech isn’t really representative of Ooo as a whole) HOW DID MARTIN GET TO SPACE BEFORE ROCKETS WERE AROUND?? (magic? mo co?) WHAT DID HE DO TO GET SENT TO SPACE JAIL? (obviously a con that got too big, but I want details)
Don’t have a way to end this, I am just rambling. Fin

tumblr please help
hiiii!
so I’m an actual dumbass when it comes to fixing technology and require some help
background: I have this really shitty Inspiron n7010 dell laptop that is currently running windows 10. it was my dad’s work laptop for a few years and I wanted to use it for burning cds. so I crack it open to use and works perfectly for a few hours! then it randomly shut down at one point so I went to turn it back on. and it got to that one screen that says “repairing drive or smth, this may take over an hour” and then shows a percentage. it got to 100% pretty quick, but nothing was happening. then it randomly shut down.
ever since then; the cycle goes
I turn on the laptop
it boots up
it loads for a bit
blue screen of death
boots up again
loads with “preparing automatic repair”
loads with “diagnosing your pc”
wait wait wait load load load
“Automatic repair couldn’t repair your pc” then buttons for either shutting down or advanced options.
Then it lets me either; turn it off, troubleshoot, or continue to windows ten.
(I can’t reset the pc, use the recovery tool, system restore, system image recovery, or uninstalling updates bc my account isn’t an admin account and my dad can’t remember the password to his)
I have tried using startup repair; it leads to a screen that says “startup repair couldn’t repair your pc”
I’ve tried booting in safe mode in every way possible it gives me, it still won’t work.
I’ve tried disabling driver signature enforcement, I’ve tried disabling automatic restart on system failure, but it still won’t boot up.
The recent downloads are just audio files from a yt to mp3 converter called “cobalt”
Is there anything I could possibly do?
Anyone with tech knowledge please look at this post
I’m sorry if this is a complete rambling and is unfixable, but if anyone has suggestions please drop them in the comments or reblogs.
