Is there literally any point to trying to sleep anymore.
Because I’ve been trying for the past three hours and all it’s got me is a pile of used tissues and the inability to breathe.
Fuck it I’m calling in sick tomorrow. Apparently I can’t just get a regular head cold, I gotta get the fucking Wake Up Choking Disease.
WALALALALALALA
Guys I miss her.
Where are all the posts about how she is tragic and misunderstood and abused and HOW VERY DARE Arcee take her arm off like that, can’t she see that stalking, torture, and genocide are just how Airachnid copes with something or other?
You just don’t know how hard it is being a murderously sadistic possible necrophile, man. Hating her for killing Breakdown is kink-shaming. Kink-shaming, I tell you!
(…the above was a joke. I feel like I have to add that disclaimer.)
They’re giving each other that…’I hate you but I’m also sort of attracted to you at the same time’ look. C:
Yisss.
YES.
why hasn’t any Breakdown/Bulkhead fic or art surfaced yet gdi
Because Bulkhead isn’t skinny and traditionally pretty.
It sucks but that’s kind of how fandom rolls.
Also every time I try to write them they end up in a threesome with Wheeljack somehow and I just don’t know what to do.
Is it terrible that I want this to be how the show ends? Everyone putting aside millenia of war and hatred and just learning to live together again.
GOD I AM AN INTERNET SAP.
THIS. I want this!
I WANT AT LEAST ONE TRANSFORMERS CANON WHERE IT ENDS LIKE THIS. WHERE THERE’S ACTUAL RECONCILIATION BETWEEN THE AUTOBOTS AND THE DECEPTICONS. BECAUSE THEY’RE STILL ALL CYBERTRONIANS.
There is one canon where it ends like that! But I’m pretty sure it’s the Victory manga and was never translated. And also it involves doe-eyed, teary Decepticon wives who beg for their husbands’ lives, which kind of makes me want to cave my head in, but I suppose you can’t have everything.
…the thing is, as much as I think it’d be cool for a TF series to end this way (and a great moral message to boot!) my dream series has the rest of the Autobots and Decepticons growing weary of the war and calling a ceasefire to focus on rebuilding their species - except Optimus and Megatron. Because their conflict was at the heart of the war, because they’re both driven by forces that are bigger than them, because they’ve both been there since the beginning, and because despite the divine and semi-divine forces at work the war is inextricably personal for them, I can’t see either of them agreeing to peace even if everyone else does.
And that’s why my headcanon ending for TFP has them agreeing to single combat, involving no one else in the war anymore. And then destroying each other, because it couldn’t end any other way.
…yeah, it’s pretty bad that the only really happy ending I can imagine for Optimus is the one where he dies. But then it’s my further headcanon that dying is as much a part of his character as being the Robot Paladin Leader is.
(whoops it’s time for more robot fandom crap on my page again, beep beep beep)
TFTA: Texts From the Avengers (pt. 2)
Texts From Last Night makes me feel like basically everyone in the world has more fun then I do.
But I have Avengers gifs, so suck it, people with lives. :P
Rachelle Ann Go as Ariel
On Rachelle’s performance:
The Little Mermaid had starred the talented, incandescent Sierra Boggess in the title role (Ariel); while Manila’s production has found a new ingénue in strong pop singer Rachelle Ann Go. Tony Award-winning actress Lea Salonga, who’s also a columnist in the Philippine Daily Inquirer, only had praises and raves for Go’s opening night (November 18) performance, “As for Go, I don’t know that the superlatives in my vocabulary could cover just how wonderful I thought she was. Bundles of charm oozed from her, as well as an easy sense of humor and adventure. Her voice was also a great mix of that clean and pristine Disney sound, plus a deep pop sensibility that made this score (and her Ariel) accessible to everyone. She was a perfect Ariel, and her portrayal will only continue to deepen and improve. She blew me away on opening night.”

Kickass Kid of the Day: A Maryland-based scientist has developed an incredibly accurate mechanism for detecting pancreatic cancer, which is faster than current methods, as well as 100 times more sensitive and 28 times cheaper. Oh, and the scientist is 15 years old.
For his discovery, high school freshman Jack Andraka just won the Gordon E. Moore Award at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, which comes with a $75,000 prize.
Andraka’s method uses single-walled carbon nanotubes — which he calls “the superheroes of material science” — to detect a pancreatic cancer marker in urine and blood samples. In a blind test, it had a 100% success rate.
“I did not expect for it to be this good,” he said, “I was blown away by how sensitive it was.”
[huffpo.]
Hot damn, darlin’. Good for you, that’s amazing.
