i am actually going to implode about "error: no vocal interface detected. unable to complete task" what do you mean v1 tries to cry out when it knows its dying. what do you mean it tries to scream but it cant because it wasnt made to. "the machine feels love <3" but its fear instead. im going to cry what do you mean it doesnt have a vocal interface so it cant even make a sound as it falls apart. ohhhh my god
#ramblings#ihnmaims reference??? in my ultrakill?????#ultrakill#like out of everything they couldve changed or added in the existing game i wasnt expecting a new death screen#no more skull laughing at you all you get is depression thinking about this robot feeling its limbs break#and being unable to voice its agony as it realises its doomed. oh my god

Au where Sentinel's betrayal of the thirteen primes never turns out but this leads to the primes getting killed in a bunch of unlikely circumstances (Final Destination style)?
#transformers#maccadam#final destination#the thirteen primes#tf1 sentinel prime#tfone spoilers#transformers one#though probably with a bit more time in between each death#because million year robots#admittedly I don't know a lot about the Final Destination movies because I only saw a bit of the third one when I was younger#but I'm thinking of that same general idea

Going insane thinking about Martlet at the end of the Aborted No Mercy Run.
You have a human standing before you. They have proven themself to be just as dangerous as your mentor said they'd be: through the Dark Ruins, Lower Snowdin, and the Dunes, they had carved out a trail of dust and death and misery. Dozens of your fellow monsters have fallen under their gun.
And yet! This human granted mercy to you and a bunch of half-rusted robots. Is that enough kindness within them to make them worthy of redemption? Should you let them go unpunished? Families have been irreparably destroyed, friends and fellow citizens have been slaughtered on their quest for vengeance. This wasn't some frightened kid defending themself; all of their actions--all of those deaths--were deliberate. If people knew that you took them in, they'd tear down your doors demanding bloodshed for all the grief this human inflicted on the Underground and brand you a villain. No matter what you do, whether it be to kill them or grant them mercy, dozens are dead regardless.
And yet, this human, Clover (though you're the only one who knows their name), isn't attacking you. Even when you've thrown away the only chance you had at defeating them, they're not attacking you. They're listening to your idea about staying with you, they either agree or hesitate at the prospect of staying with you before agreeing. They've agreed to put their tendency towards violence/dustshed behind them and to try to be peaceful. You've never been quite sure if you've made the best choices until after you've made them, but this one? In this moment, this one results in the least amount of violence and death between the two of you.
Is this the best choice and outcome for this situation? I don't know, I'm not qualified enough to answer that. But if it wasn't for Flowey's meddling, it would have worked.
#undertale yellow#i think a lot about the whole ''punitive vs restorative'' justice thing going on between Martlet and Clover in high LOVE routes.#had i been in Martlet's shoes in this situation i doubt i would have been able to toss the DT away and offer Clover a place to stay.#idk. it's complicated. i feel like everyone should be given the chance to improve themself if that's what they choose to do.#AND YET! i can't stop that monkey brain part of me that would be screaming to kill them. even though killing Clover would solve#nothing and all those citizens would be dead regardless.#in that way Martlet is a better person than I am. and yet! shouldn't the guilty be taught some sort of lesson???#even if it's not death shouldn't there be some sort of punishment? would punishment even be effective or am i seeking#out some form of retribution for my own sense of satisfaction?#i REALLY wish this was something that the fandom took more interest in because there's so much meat to this situation.#the ONLY difference between this version of Neutral Clover and the No Mercy Route Clover is a bunch of destroyed robots in a forgotten#part of the Underground. the same number of actual people are still dead.#char: martlet#char: clover

I think the gravity falls fandom and wordgirl fandom should like. interact. Idk how many active wordgirl fans are out there now but all I'm saying is that GF fans y'all would have fun drawing some of the villains
#this post is about the butcher#i saw a mullet stan post and for some reason was reminded of the butcher#anyway very tempted to make this a crossover#gravity falls#wordgirl#hello to the 3 people who see this post and agree#the rest of you are just dealing with my nomsense again#voltoise shorts#the butcher#he gets tagged because of mullet stan#oh also just saw a post with dr two brains and fiddleford on it#yeah the memory loss scientists i think there should be more crossover there#especially with one being explicitly a villain and one just making death robots because???#also i think we have toby and fiddleford interact. because.#ALSO did you know victoria best is voiced by Kristen Schaal?#yeah anyway

[Image ID: A drawing done with paint, ink, and colored pencil on a small wooden keychain. Pictured is Lord Felthius from Warhammer 40K, a large, armorclad fellow, giving a thumbs up to the viewer. On his armor is metal tubes, accents, and metal symbol of a large dragonfly in the center. His head is exposed, showing a bald, wrinkly fellow with small dots eyes, two slit nostrils, and a big, goofy, open smile. He has spikes growing out of his back, and a cape. Smoke trails behind him. He is colored entirely one color--brown--with orange and white highlights. The background is lime green. Next to him is a tiny speech bubble with a heart. In between two spikes is a signature reading "zombied cattle". End ID]

she's a trans woman to me by the way
#i know centaur man is like the least groundbreaking robot master to she/her because the rockman 6 manga made her secretly a woman#but i specifically think that she is transgender about it#getting reprogrammed so hard it cracks your egg....#'mega man can i be honest with you i think i'm a woman' 'WHY ARE YOU TELLING ME THIS RIGHT NOW'#[rock is chill with it he's probably also trans he's just baffled that they're having this conversation while she's stomping him to death]

Daisy: You know after having spent 25 years alone and unloved I really thought searching for my birth parents would be the only way I could find a family but you know what this team is kind of-
Daisy: OK so at least one of my team is a traitor and my birth parents are alive they're just evil monsters. Cool cool cool I am once again not feeling very safe and secure
Daisy: Oh actually wait my bio parents love me? They want me? I can make a home here mayb-
Daisy: Oh never mind my mom just tried to murder me. And my dad is still a monster but he's agreed to have his memory wiped. At least he's still breathing I guess?
Daisy: Good news is I still have my found family parents so at least-
Daisy: Aaaaand found family dad is dead. You know what this is fine as long as I just have-
Daisy:
Daisy: Universe. Universe listen to me very closely. You bring back my found family mom right fucking now. If I have all four of my parents die on me I will destroy this world just like you all said I would
Daisy: OK good. We found a nice compromise. I get to keep one parent and don't have to watch four of them die. Oh hey it's my bio mom from another timeline where she didn't get tortured into insanity and could actually love-
Daisy: Are you fucking KIDDING me.
#aos#aos spoilers#aos rambles#daisy johnson#thinking about the universe's favourite chewtoy of tragedy tonight#The narrative said losing your parents twice isn't enough we're going to have all four of them die at least once.#Your bio mom dies twice as compensation for keeping may and robot coulson#No but for real if I was her I would be convinced fate had it out for me. I would fist fight it in a parking lot#and not just for the parents deaths for the little things#the first time a parental figure tries to tell her she loves her Daisy is 27. Her mom gets knocked out before she can actually say it#it takes two more years for her to get that first i love you from coulson#the amount of tragedy and grief this one character has survived is so crazy I want to sit in on just one therapy session#just to see how deeply out of his depth the therapist is#marvel

inanimate insanity might have caused an entire generation of kids to confuse steve jobs (the actual real person) with steve cobs (the fictional character) cuz on twitter the other day i saw someone say that steve JOBS was a "genocidal colonizer" so ppl shouldn't feel bad for him and im like. i dont think that's true actually. like i didnt know him personally but im pretty sure steve jobs the Real person was not a genocidal fascist colonizer i think he was just a tech CEO đ
#im sure he wasn't a good person i mean cuz. he was rich and powerful and in tech in the 90s#he definitely did scummy things if nothing else#but i dont think he actually colonized a planet of advanced alien species to use their unique form of organic energy#to build his killer death robots and further his genocide. i think we wouldve heard about that#i cant even blame them cuz sometimes i forget this stuff too!!! sometimes im like hmm wait was steve jobs Actually like that#i dont think he was i tbink they kinda did their own thing which is objectively very funny#to do with an actual real person who was ALIVE WHEN THEY STARTED MAKING THE SHOW#it was originally created kinda as a tribute to steve jobs which makes it worse. do u think he'd like it if he watched it đ„ș??#txt#inanimate insanity

I think I realized how severely humor infects all spaces when I witnessed two of my coworkers at the neuro clinic Iâm interning at laughing at putting in a patient as deceased
#It wasnât because the patient was dead it was because of an error the system did or something#But even joking about it in that context is fucking weird to me#I thought death would be the only thing humor couldnât touch#Especially in the context of FTD which is a very aggressive dementia#I donât think theyâre bad people but I do think theyâre weird as fuck for that#And if it were me I wouldnât be able to sleep knowing I made that kind of joke#I donât mean to be a buzzkill but I have my limits and wtf was that#I didnât say anything I just pretended to be engrossed in my paperwork#The neurologist Iâm shadowing wasnât present#And while I do think sheâs a little too robotic when dealing w patients I donât think sheâd have been in on that joke#Just odd idk the us healthcare system already has issues but I think a big one Iâm starting to see is#How desensitized the healthcare workers get#Whereâs your heart#I love medicine for the humanism of it I donât wanna become like this one day#I know some people are gonna tell me itâs Just Two Coworkers Being Silly#But canât they be silly about something else

me taking painkillers: Woah I am like bad end au sonic
#Iâm so tired#I mean like. Yeah I guess he's constantly on painkillers he probably shouldnât be bc neo is extremely paranoid about him dying#bc she needs to murder him first#she. is a little confused but she has the spirit ig. she doesnât Get the concept of pain but she's trying#but like Iâm not being injected with morphine way too often by a robot girl who thinks Iâll die without it#and thatâd deny her torturing me to death#theyâre not really that similar

monthly calypsoworld tag ramble :]
#itâs actually incredibly tragic . but that does not mean the prototypes cannot be fun#like ohhh every second i think about them i know they are destined for frankly horrible deaths . just due to the nature of their existence#iâve been approaching pvp2003 by mostly just . fleshing out the things that i need to as they come up . Mostly#the the anesidora prototypes have been horribly neglected . on the account of not really being important to calypsoâs development LOL#but that does need to change . and maybe that Will change if i play around with them some more#always feel like such a freak when i kill my own characters sorry like yea ⊠i made a guy ⊠AND THEYRE DEAD BTW. but what can i sayyyyy .#calypsoâs Whole Thing is abt death and rebirth . somewhat literally and somewhat figuratively#ten dies and becomes anesidora (real actual literal death. less literal transformation)#anesidora dies and becomes calypso (purely metaphorical)#calypso dies and ⊠stays the same? she should be someone else but she doesnât really have it in her anymore to become someone new#<- (not literal? but not Entirely hypothetical. she got blown up and was dead but she got better)#the anesidora prototypes that came before her Also struggled heavily with identity . Most of their downfalls boil down to a very violent ego#death . ego death#anesidora 1-8 dealt with identity as clones . identity as robots . dysmorphia as robots . also just generally poorly thought out designs#how fucked would it be to wake up in your cool new robot body built for fighting and it just Doesnât work off the bat . <- A-2#they figured That out by A-3 but A-10 (calypso) was the only prototype to make it into field testing#i love A-9 . 9 is really exciting to me bc she is a question iâll never answer . what happened to her ? wouldnât you like to know.#all iâll tell you is that she never made it into a robot . maybe sheâs still out there . (going ooooo ooooo and waggling my fingers)

i think it's unfortunate that in all the hypotheticals i've seen about prism and solaris working together- potentially with right robot in tow- there's never been a mention of... just how comically flawed prism's lasers were. every consecutive iteration of her lasers without fail led, in one way or another, to the destruction of her robots.
you mean to tell her that you built an entire machine and then added the lasers in LAST?? so that you weren't accounting for wire placement or proper ventilation systems?? you put the consistently overheating laser module DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE CORE OF THE MACHINE?? THE EXPLOSIVE CORE OF THE MACHINE?? THAT EXPLODES SPECIFICALLY WHEN IT GETS TOO HOT?? (well yeah) đ
#ieytd#commander solaris#roxana prism#robutler#tagging him too. imagine him in the background with all his panels pried open (hes so fine though)#i think solaris would be sooo scared. about. whatever the hell is going on inside of that robot#prism made like. pretty much all of those laser adjustments in the span of a few days if even.#she was NOT considering the longevity of any of it. thats so scary. whats going on in there....#solaris: đsometimes i feel like the death engine was a personal failure (looks inside the robot) oh nevermind what the hell is happeni#solaris and prism to me is like. the equivalent of looking at your art from when you were 12 years old and cringing really hard#you don't want to be mean. in theory. but you are being mean. you're being so mean.

i'm literally so insufferable about timelines
#wrong word but whatever#i feel insane about the timeline fuckery in House rn#also. everyone lists wilson's death in 2012 but according to the timeline in the beginning of twenty vicodin#after he drove the car into cuddy's house he disappeared for three months and has been incarcerated for seven months#and his set parole is said to be Friday the 10th#which the math all lines up (including the date) for him to have been released in June of 2012#and idk the timeline in s8 yet so maybe that all works out for his death to still be 2012#granted i think about this shit more than the writers#also the show has been out for twenty fucking years so there's no way i'm the first bitch to try to figure this out#the only reason i'm curious about the death date is because each season roughly takes place over an in universe year#but again. we just started season 8 so i'm missing information for sure#god. is there a wiki somewhere that isn't fandom.com slop?#it did help me figure out i'm not insane about the sam/wilson timeline being wack so it's not completely worthless ig#i headcanoned my way out of that one so i'm less crazy about it#anyway. i'm the queen of being obsessed with media with terrible timelines#i got access to mr robot again so i'm about to get insane about figuring that one out again#also means i can restart the stuff i was making for it again#honestly the timeline isn't that fucked in it#like the entire show is over a year#but i want to figure out the shit before that#which. sifting through the first episodes and trying to figure out when's the present and when's the past is so much bruh#idk. maybe i'm silly#i just wanted to figure out when mastermind split exactly and then i got lost in the sauce

ive not really interacted with many classic who fans until recently so idk if this is controversial or most people agree with this but i gotta be honest most of these serials did not need to be six episodes long. and the dalek's master plan definitely didn't need to be TWELVE episodes long that shit was painful to get through. im not slagging off classic who as a whole like im saying this as someone who's only just finished hartnell's run so it could improve as it goes on but christ a lot of episodes have fuck all happening. don't get me wrong i'm generally enjoying it and i would recommend watching it (well. most of it.) but sometimes it feels like im having to drag myself through them
#rereading this it does sound like im having a bad time im not i promise i like classic who#i just think the pacing was a bit of a nightmare at the beginning#i do expect it to get so much better (pacing wise) esp bc ive seen random serials before and enjoyed them#i watched genesis of the daleks and the robots of death when i was like eleven and liked them#(i have an uncle who is crazy autistic about dr who and owns All Of It so i used to borrow random dvds from him)#micah.txt#whoposting
