FUUUCK ITS A FRIDAY. BUT IM HERE ANYWAYS WE TRUCK ON. WHAT CAN YOU DO. ANYWAYS IM HERE ONCE MORE HELLO SUCKERZ. ITS UHHHH 9AM ITS FRIDAY AND WELL IDK MUCH WHAT TO SAY BUT ILL JUST KEEP GOING.


LETS START FIRST WITH ARTFIGHT BEING ONLY A FEW DAYS AWAY AS OF THIS ENTRY! IM SUPER FUCKIN EXCITED ONCE AGAIN TO TAKE PART, GONNA DRAW AS MUCH AS I CAN, HOPEFULLY MORE THAN THE LAST 2 YEARS. IVE NOT BEEN AT MY PEAK FOR THE PAST 2 DUE TO MENTAL HEALTH, AND TO BE HONEST IM STILL STRUGGLING DEEPLY, BUT I THINK IM GETTING JUST ENOUGH OF A HOLD I CAN PUT MORE TIME TOWARDS ATTENDING TO HOBBIES AND EVENTS. AS I USUALLY DO IM GOING TO BE DOING BOTH FURRIES AND FAN OCS FOR MEDIA IM A FAN OF, MAINLY TF THIS TIME AROUND AS ITS MY MAIN INTEREST AS OF NOW, BUT THERE MAY BE A COUPLE ATTACKS ON OCS FOR POKEMON AND SUCH TOO IF I FIND ANY THAT APPEAL TO ME. I DONT TEND TO LIKE SETTING NUMBERS FOR MYSELF ON HOW MANY ATTACKS I SHOULD MAKE SINCE IT GIVES ME IMMENSE PRESSURE, BUT IM LOOKING AT ANYWHERE BETWEEN 15-20 ATTACKS FOR THIS ONE. IM LIKELY GOING TO HIT THE 15 MARK AT LEAST OR MAYBE A BIT HIGHER IF IM LUCKY, SINCE THE PAST FEW YEARS IVE ONLY BEEN 1-2 ATTACKS OFF FROM 15 SO THAT SEEMS THE MOST DOABLE FOR ME. I DONT WANNA OVERDO MYSELF AFTERALL. IM GOING TO GET MY FRIENDS AND MUTUALS FIRST MOST LIKELY, OBVIOUSLY THE SITE TENDS TO BE FUCKY ON THE FIRST DAY SO ITS EASIER TO DRAW CHARACTERS I HAVE FAMILIARITY WITH. IM GOING TO TRY AND BE BETTER ABOUT REVENGES THIS YEAR TOO, I CANT GUARANTEE ILL RETURN ANYTHING BUT AS LONG AS IM NOT FEELING TOO STRAINED METAPHORICALLY I WILL GET PEOPLE BACK. HONESTLY IMPATIENT FOR THE WAIT TO BE OVER, BUT SOON ENOUGH. CANT WAIT TO SEE EVERYONE THERE!


WHAT ELSE NOW I GUESS. IVE NOT HAD MUCH OF A WEEK REALLY. MY PERCEPTOR AND RATCHET FIGURES CAME IN, I HAD TO WAIT UP 2 DAYS FOR THEM TO BRING THEM BUT THEY FINALLY GOT HERE. THIS WILL BE IT FOR AWHILE, AS NOW I HAVE SOME PLANS FOR MY FUTURE IN THE WORKS? NOTHING IS SET IN STONE YET, BUT WELL. LETS START WITH THIS FIRST. I HAVE MANAGED TO FIND A NEW GP AFTER AWHILE OF WAITING! I JUST LEARNED LAST NIGHT I GOT IN WITH THEM, AND SO FAR SO GOOD THEY SEEM LIKE THEYRE TRANS AFFIRMING. SO WITH THAT IN MIND, AS WELL AS MY MUM TELLING ME WERE GETTING BACK ON OUR FEET WITH MONEY AGAIN, IM THINKING ABOUT SAVING UP AND GOING TO PRIVATE HEALTHCARE TO GET ACCESS TO HRT. ITS BEEN A LONG TIME NOW, BUT THINGS JUST MIGHT FINALLY BE FALLING INTO PLACE FOR ME. ITS GOING TO TAKE A BIT SINCE I HAVE TO WORK OUT SOME STUFF WITH MY GP IF I WANT IT TO BE VIABLE FOR THE LONG TERM, AND IM GOING TO HAVE TO SAVE UP A BIT SO WE CAN PAY OUT THE FULL AMOUNT AND NOT WORRY TOO BADLY, BUT ITS LOOKING LIKE ITS GONNA HAPPEN. ILL ADMIT THOUGH, IM PRETTY NERVOUS. IM NERVOUS THAT BECAUSE IM MENTALLY ILL OR BECAUSE SOMETHING THEY SEE AS AN ISSUE STANDING IN THE WAY OF MY TRANSITION THAT I DIDNT THINK WOULD BE A PROBLEM IS THERE, ILL GET DENIED ACCESS. AND THATS A TERRIFYING THOUGHT TO ME. BUT IM GONNA TRY REGARDLESS, HOPEFULLY THINGS WILL ALL WORK OUT IN THE END AS MUCH AS MY OCD AND GENERAL ANXIETY BOTHERS ME ABOUT IT NOT WORKING OUT. HERES TO HOPING I GUESS. I LOOK BACK ON LAST WEEK AND REALISE I ALREADY TALKED ABOUT MY PLANS BUT IM NOT REWRITING THIS SECTION BECAUSE IM LAZY AND IT HAS SOME MINOR UPDATES TO THE SITUATION.


NOW ITS THE FUCKING “TRAVIS READS IDW SECTION” OF THESE THINGS. IVE MADE A LOT OF PROGRESS THROUGH SINCE LAST WEEK. I THINK I FINISHED THEM BEING ON EARTH ENTIRELY AND IM NOT GONNA LIE IT MADE ME SAD I JUST COULDNT HELP BUT SIT THERE LIKE “WHAT? NO!!” NOT BECAUSE IT FELT LIKE A BAD PLACE TO LEAVE OFF ON, BUT BECAUSE IM JUST NOT READY. THE WHOLE THING OF THE SWEEPS AND DECEPTICONS MERGING INTO SOME GIANT CREATURE, MEGATRON BREAKING LOOSE TO FUCKIN THROW HANDS WITH IT, WAS FUCKING INSANE BUT SO IDW TRANFORMERS. I LIKE HOW ARCS JUST END WITH GIANT POWERFUL BEASTS COMING FROM A DIFFERENT DIMENSION. GUHH DRIFT AS WELL IN THIS PART DROVE ME CRAZY, THE WAY IT TRIED TO GET HIM INTO THE CREATURE BUT HE BEATS IT OUT BY LITERALLY STABBING HIMSELF THROUGH THE CHEST AND NEARLY DYING. ITS SO INTERESTING TO ME AND HONESTLY MAKES PARTS OF MTMTE SO MUCH STRONGER TO HIS CHARACTER I THINK. SOMETHING ABOUT HIS STRUGGLE TO SEPARATE HIS PAST FROM HIMSELF ENOUGH TO LOOK AHEAD TO THE POINT THAT CAN HAPPEN TO HIM THERES SOMETHING RELATEABLE IN HIM ABOUT THAT. OBVIOUSLY NOT AS EXESSIVE, IVE NEVER BEEN TO A 4 MILLION YEAR ROBOT WAR NOR WOULD I SURVIVE A SWORD THROUGH THE CHEST, BUT JUST THE GENERAL THINGS THAT SPEAKS TO AND CAN BE APPLIED TO LIFE. I MIGHT SOUND LIKE IM SPEAKING PURE SHIT RIGHT NOW, BUT THATS OKAY, IT MAKES SENSE TO ME AND EVERYONES OWED THEIR OWN MEANING OF ART.ITS NOT THE ONLY PART I READ EITHER, I MEAN I COULD SAY MORE ABOUT IT BUT IM GOING TO CUT IT A BIT SHORT AS I HAVE 3 OTHER SHORT SERIES OF COMICS TO GET TO TALKING ABOUT SOME OF MY THOUGHTS ON. MEGATRONS ORIGIN COMICS. SUPER FUCKIN GOOD. IT WAS REALLY REALLY INTERESTING HOW THEY MANAGED TO SHOW HIS CHANGE FROM SOMEONE WHO FELT GUILTY FOR KILLING TO SOMEONE WHO WOUDLNT HESITATE TO TAKE ANYONES LIFE, AND HOW YOU CAN SEE THAT THROUGH THE CHANGE IN HIS DESIGN FROM MINER TO WELL. MEGATRON. IT WAS ALSO FUNNY AS WELL TO SEE RUMBLE AND FRENZY THERE, ITS BOTH SURPRISING AND NOT SURPRISING TO ME AT ALL THAT THEY WERE ALSO FROM THE MINES. I MEAN IT MAKES SENSE YK. BUT IT WAS FUNNY TO SEE THEM BASICALLY FORCED TO WORK WITH SOUNDWAVE.IT WAS ALSO REALLY INTERESTING TO SEE THAT SOUNDWAVE WORKED WITH SENATORS BEFORE HE MET MEGATRON, AND FUCKIN HELL THE PART WHERE HE TOOK RATBATS SPARK AND ESSENTIALLY FORCED HIM INTO BEING A CASSETTE. . .DAMN MAN. THE NEXT STORY AUTOCRACY WAS SUPER INTERESTING TOO. MAN A LOT HAPPENED IN THAT ONE. A LOT OF STUFF IN THESE 3 (MEGATRON ORIGIN, AUTOCRACY AND MONSTROSITY) WAS REALLY GOOD TO BE HONEST, PROBABLY ANOTHER SERIES OF FAVOURITES FROM THE IDW COLLECTIONS ALONGSIDE LSOTW AND MTMTE/LL. HOT RODS BACKGROUND AS A CHARACTER WHO JUST WANTED TO SAVE EVERYONE, ONLY TO END UP HAVING TO KILL HIS ENTIRE CITY WITH ANY OTHER CHOICE HE HAD LEFT TAKEN, AND HOW HE STRUGGLED WITH DOING THAT, IT REALLY ADDS TO A LOT OF HIS CHARACTER IN MTMTE, LIKE THE WAY HE TENDS TO REACT TO LOSING OTHERS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF BEING THEIR “LEADER” MAKES A LOT MORE SENSE WITH HIS BACKGROUND IN STRUGGLING WITH OTHERS BEING LOST FROM HIS OWN HAND. THE GENERAL THEMES OF IT WERE REALLY GOOD TOO, BIT IFFY ON THE “GOOD COP” STUFF BUT THERE WAS A LOT ABOUT POLICE CONTROL IN THIS THAT I THINK WAS PRETTY GOOD WITH ITS HANDLING. HOW PEOPLE DIDNT TRUST ORION DESPITE GOOD INTENT FROM HIM. MEGATRON BETRAYING HIM AT THE END AND NEARLY KILLING HIM TOO WAS CRAZY, AS WELL AS HOW HE GOT THE MATRIX AND BECAME OPTIMUS IN ALL OF THAT. IM GOING ON VERY LONG NOW THOUGH SO ILL TOUCH ON SOME STUFF I LIKED IN MONSTROSITY, THE LAST ONE IVE READ CURRENTLY. THE DYNOBOTS GOT EVEN BETTER FROM THIS ONE I THINK, I LOVE SO MUCH OF WHAT IDW DID WITH THEIR CHARACTERS, ESPECIALLY GRIMLOCK SINCE HE TENDS TO BE THE MAIN FOCUS OF THEM ALL. I LOVE THAT HE TRIES SO HARD TO PUT ON A TOUGH DONT TEST ME IMAGE BUT IN REALITY WOULD STRUGGLE TO HURT ANYONE UNDESERVING OF BEING HURT. HOW THEY WERE TRYING TO RUN AWAY BECAUSE OF THEIR ALT MODES BEING DANGEROUS, THEIR DEAD TEAMMATE AND HOW THEY WERE TREATED AS A RESULT OF THE INCIDENT AND HOW THEY HAVE TRAUMA FROM ALL OF IT. THE SET UP TO SCORPONOKS ENDLESS TORMENTING OF GRIMLOCK. I LOVE THE GODDAMN DINOSAUR ROBOTS SO MUCH MAN. THE ENERGON DRAGON THINGS WERE STRANGE TOO BUT ALSO PRETTY COOL TBH, IM NOT SURE IT MADE SENSE BUT DRAGONS ARE AWESOME SO ITS FINE BY ME. OK AND LASTLY FUCKIN TRYPTICON MAN. HE WAS LIKE FUCKIN GODZILLA IF HE WAS A TRANSFORMER IN THIS IT WAS SO COOL. SHAME HE HAD TO DIE, BUT THEN AGAIN MEGATRON SEEMS TO BRING HIM BACK SO. . . WHO KNOWS MAN. OK JESUS THIS SECTION WAS STUPID LONG SORRY. I LOVE THIS SERIES A LOT.


OK DID YOU GET ALL OF THAT? YOU BETTER HAVE. THATS PROBABLY ALL I HAVE TO SAY FOR THIS WEEK, SO ILL WRAP IT UP HERE. NEXT WEEK I SHOULD HOPEFULLY UPDATE ON THURSDAY AS USUAL BUT DONT GET TOO MAD IF IM STILL TOO NECK DEEP IN ARTFIGHT TO REMEMBER. WHICH JUST REMINDED ME. . . THIS IS THE LAST ENTRY FOR THIS MONTH! DAMN! THEYRE KILLING ALL US QUEERS SOON IT SEEMS. VERY SAD. SEE YOU ALL IN WHEREVER WE GO AFTERLIFE I GUESS. ALSO KNOWN AS JULY.

TRAVIS, YOUR EPIC WEBMASTER

HELLOOOO AGAIN DIGITALCAT FANS IM HERE AGAIN THIS WEEK AGAIN VERY TIRED AGAIN. AND IM LATE ITS TECHNICALLY A FRIDAY BUT IT DOESNT MATTER THAT MUCH AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED ITS THURSDAY UNTIL 7AM. WHAT TO TALK ABOUT FROM HERE I DONT REALLY KNOW.


WELL IN MOST EXCITING NEWS MY FLAME TOYS RODIMUS FIGURE FINALLY TURNED UP AFTER SO LONG ON MONDAY. IM SO FUCKING HAPPY TO FINALLY OWN HIM! HE LOOKS BETTER THAN I IMAGINED! HOLY SHIT THOUGH, PUTTING HIM TOGETHER WAS A FUCKING NIGHTMARE. IF YOURE THINKING ABOUT MODEL KIT FIGURES AND GUNPLA THIS IS NOT THE SHIT TO START WITH I ALMOST CRIED. ALMOST. HE WOULDNT EVEN HOLD TOGETHER COMPLETELY I HAD TO CLUE HIS HIPS TOGETHER AND HIS SPOILER TO HIS BACK THE DAY AFTER. HES FINE NOW THOUGH, AND IM REALLY HAPPY TO HAVE HIM IN MY COLLECTION, IDW RODIMUS IS PROBABLY MY NUMBER 1 FAVOURITE. IN OTHER FIGURE NEWS IM GETTING MY PERCEPTOR AND RATCHET TOMORROW TOO. IF YOURE WONDERING ABOUT HOW I GOT SO MANY FIGURES, I PROMISE YOU IM NOT THAT RICH, THOUGH I WISH I WAS MY LIFE WOULD BE MUCH EASIER. THEYRE ALL CHRISTMAS GIFTS. FOR CHRISTMAS I TRIED TO PREORDER THE MDLX STARSCREAM, A PRETTY EXPENSIVE FIGURE, BUT THE PREORDER GOT CANCELLED, I ENDED UP SAYING “WELL FUCK THIS THEN” AND USED THE MONEY FROM THAT FIGURE FOR 3 DIFFERENT ONES THAT ADDED UP TO THE SAME AMOUNT I WOULDVE SPENT ON STARSCREAM HAD MY PREORDER NOT BEEN CANCELLED. SUPPOSE I WAS KINDA DUMB NOT LOOKING INTO IT CUZ IVE SINCE HEARD THE SELLER IS PRETTY GARBAGE AS A WHOLE WHEN IT COMES TO PREORDERED FIGURES BUT ITS ALL WORKED OUT, I HAVE MORE FIGURES OF CHARACTERS IM MORE FOND OF NOW AS A RESULT OF GETTING THAT £120 BACK.


ANYWAYS WHAT ELSE. . . NOT MADE MUCH PROGRESS ON NEW SITE ADDITIONS AND UPDATES. ERM. SORRY. IVE BEEN CYCLING BETWEEN MINECRAFT AND DRAWING RECENTLY. MOSTLY MINECRAFT. IM SPENDING TOO MUCH TIME ON MINECRAFT. ITS KINDA HARD NOT TO, IM CURRENTLY ENCHANTING DIAMOND ARMOR AND TOOLS SO IVE BEEN PRETTY FOCUSED ON GETTING THAT DONE SO I CAN START BUILDING COOL THINGS IN THIS REALM IM ON. IVE NEVER GOTTEN TO THE POINT BEFORE WHERE I COULD HAVE A FULL SET OF ENCHANTED TOOLS AND ARMOR, SO ITS PRETTY EXCITING TO HAVE THOSE THINGS FOR THE FIRST TIME, THOUGH IM SURE THERES PROBABLY MUCH EASIER WAYS TO GO ABOUT GETTING ALL THE GOOD STUFF ON MY GEAR THAN WHAT IM CURRENTLY DOING. IM INEFFICIENT AT LIFE LOL. I THINK REALMS/SERVERS ARE THE BEST WAY TO PLAY THE GAME THOUGH, WHERE LOTS OF PEOPLE CAN CHIP IN ON BUILDING THE WORLD UP. IM TEMPTED TO START MY OWN ONE DAY, MAYBE WHEN I HAVE MORE COMFORTABLE MONEY TO BE SUBSCRIBED TO SO MUCH. . . (I FUCKIN HATE THE WAY EVERYTHINGS SUBSCRIPTION BASED THESE DAYS, GOTTA PICK N CHOOSE HOW MUCH I CAN HAVE BEFORE ITS UNSUSTAINABLE FOR MONTHY PAYMENTS)


I HAAAAVE BEEN READING IDW AGAIN THIS WEEK, IDK WHEN A “TRAVIS READS IDW SECTION” BECAME PART OF THESE UPDATES BUT I GUESS THEY ARE NOW UNTIL I FINISH THE WHOLE OF IDW 1. MAYBE IDW 2 AS WELL. IM UNSURE IF ILL GET TO THAT ONE OR NOT THOUGH. NOT HEARD TOO MUCH GOOD ABOUT IT. AS FOR IDW 1 RIGHT NOW THOUGH, THEY JUST GOT OFF EARTH. . . WELL MOST OF THEM AT LEAST. A FEW STAYED BACK. THE ENTIRE THING WITH RODIMUS WAS FUN AS HELL, WHERE HE FINDS WHEELIE. FINALLY GOT SOME CONTEXT ON A COUPLE CHARACTERS THAT SHOW UP IN A LATER CROSSOVER COMIC THAT I DIDNT REALLY UNDERSTAND THE PRESENCE OF NOW WHICH IS COOL. RODIMUS WAS JUST HIMSELF THE ENTIRE TIME WHICH IS GOOD TO ME I LOVE HIS STUPID ASS CHARACTER A LOT. THEN THERES ALSO THE PART WITH MEGATRON AND OPTIMUS TALKING WITH EACH OTHER. MAN THAT ALL JUST ABOUT KILLED ME I THINK. THE WAY OPTIMUS REACTS TO ANYTHING RELATED TO MEGATRON IS SO GOOD TO ME. HE GETS EXTREMELY ANGRY AND FRUSTRATED VERY EASILY WHEN ITS SUGGESTED TO HIM THAT HE ISNT THE ONE IN CHARGE OF THE DECISIONS ON WHAT HAPPENS TO HIM AND HE GETS MESSED UP ENOUGH THAT HE HURTS THE GUY. THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO EACH OTHER IS GENUINELY INTERESTING TO ME. I THINK ITS PROBABLY MY FAVOURITE OF ANY DEPICTION OF THEM WITH EACH OTHER TO BE HONEST, THE WAY THEY FRUSTRATE EACH OTHER YET THEY DONT HATE EACH OTHER YET DO SIMULTAINEOUSLY. ITS SO GOOD. I ALSO GOT REALLY EXCITED SEEING THE BITS OF MTMTE SHOWING UP THROUGHOUT THE ISSUES I READ LAST, ITS REALLY COOL TO SEE HOW THERE WAS HINTS TO IT BEFORE THE STORY WAS EVER MADE, REALLY LIKE THATS WHAT IT WAS ALL LEADING UP TO. I CANT WAIT TO KNOW THE WHOLE STORY IN ITS ENTIRETY, BUT AT THE SAME TIME FINISHING IT IS GONNA HURT BAD. I KNOW THAT. THE AGONY OF BEING BETWEEN BOTH WANTING TO KNOW THE WHOLE STORY AND NOT WANTING THE STORY TO END IS GREAT. GOD DAMN.


WHAT ELSE CAN I PUT IN HERE THIS WEEK? HM. OCD IS STILL PRETTY BAD, ALL OVER THE PLACE RECENTLY BUT THEN AGAIN, IT HAS BEEN SINCE LATE LAST YEAR. IDK IF IM HAPPY ABOUT THAT ANYMORE, AT FIRST I WAS BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT MEANT I WAS FREE, BECAUSE I LET GO OF A THEME ID HAD FOR NEARLY 2 YEARS AT THAT POINT, BUT IM NOT SO SURE ANYMORE. THAT THEME STILL BOUNCES BACK SOMETIMES, MOST OF THEM DO, ITS TIRING. BUT THERE IS AN UPDATE I CAN GIVE ACTUALLY! IVE BEEN APPLYING TO GET A NEW DOCTOR RECENTLY. AND I THINK IVE FOUND ONE, WHICH WILL GENUINELY GET ME TO SO MUCH BETTER OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO ME. I CAN GET NEW ANTIDEPRESSANTS AND GET ON THE WAITLIST FOR A GIC, AND MAYBE AGAIN LOOK INTO PRIVATE CARE IN THE MEANTIME IF I GET ONE WHOS WILLING TO DO SHARED CARE (IT WASNT LOOKING AFFORDABLE PREVIOUSLY, BUT LOOKING INTO IT IT JUUUUST MIGHT BE IF I CAN GET SHARED CARE? BUT IDK. I NEED TO FIGURE OUT HOW ITD WORK LONG TERM. THERES ALREADY A LOT OF MONEY GOING OUT PLACES AND WE BARELY CAN SCRAPE BY MONTHLY AT HOME SO I DONT THINK WE CAN ADD MORE PRICEY APPOINTMENTS AND PERSCRIPTIONS TO THAT. . . BUT I WONT KNOW UNTIL I CAN GET AN APPOINTMENT WITH A GP TO DISCUSS IT AND SEE WHAT ITD LOOK LIKE.) BASICALLY MY LIFE HAS BEEN HINGING ON THIS BEING DONE FOR SO LONG NOW AND I HATE HOW LONG ITS TAKEN, BUT I CANT REALLY HELP MY COMPLICATED HOME SITUATION THAT MUCH. ITS PRETTY HARD TO NOT GET DOWN ON MYSELF, FEELING LIKE IM NOT TRYING HARD ENOUGH TO GET OUT OF MY SITUATIONS, BUT I KNOW THAT I CANT PRESSURE MYSELF INTO THE CHANGE, IT NEARLY KILLED ME LAST YEAR. SO FOR NOW IM TAKING IT AS I CAN AND NOT STRESSING TOO MUCH, READING MY SILLY COMICS AND MAKING MY SILLY CREATIVE PROJECTS. YOU GOTTA DISTRACT YOURSELF OR YOULL BREAK I GUESS.


THATS MOSTLY IT I THINK. THINGS ARE HAPPENING I SUPPOSE. SLOWLY. WERE ALL GONNA GET THERE EVENTUALLY. ILL BE SEEING YOUUUU NEXT WEEK.

TRAVIS, YOUR EPIC WEBMASTER

IM BACK AGAIN IM BACK AGAIN IM BACK AGAIN HI. UMMMM WHAT TO TALK ABOUT THIS TIME.I GOT SOME STUFF I THINK. SOME SOUR THINGS. SOME OKAY THINGS.


IM GONNA START WITH THE PEAK OF MY WEEK: MY DRIFT FIGURE ARRIVED! HES SO MUCH BETTER THAN I EXPECTED HIM TO BE AND IM SO HAPPY I HAVE HIM NOW, HES ONE OF MY BIGGEST FAVOURITES OF THE ENTIRE FRANCHISE AND IM GLAD I CAN HAVE HIM IN MY COLLECTION. HES MY SECOND FIGURE EVER, AND SOON IM GONNA HAVE ANOTHER RODIMUS, A PERCEPTOR AND A RATCHET FIGURE TO JOIN HIM AND MY MDLX RODIMUS TOO! IM EXCITED AS HELL FOR THAT! THEY DID HAVE TO RESEND MY FLAME TOYS RODIMUS THOUGH, THE SHIPPING COMPANY FUCKED UP THE FIRST TIME AND HE DIDNT EVEN GET OUT OF CHINA. BUT HES ON HIS WAY AGAIN AND SO FAR SO GOOD, HES AT THE AIRPORT TO BE FLOWN OVER NOW. THE OTHER 2 ARE COMING FROM A DIFFERENT STORE THAT DELIVERED MY FIRST EVER FIGURE, AND THINGS SEEM TO BE GOOD ON THAT FRONT TOO. WITH SOME LUCK ILL HAVE ALL OF THEM IN THE NEXT 1-2 WEEKS I THINK.


EARTHSPARK. IM GONNA TALK ABOUT IT LIKE I SAID. AND WELL MY THOUGHTS ON THESE FIRST 9 EPISODES. . . IM UNFORTUNATELY DISAPPOINTED. SEASON ONE WAS BRILLIANT, YOU HAD SO MUCH CHARACTER TO EVERYONE IN IT, IT JUST FOCUSED ON THESE NEW TRANSFORMERS COMING INTO THE WORLD AND LEARNING ABOUT THEMSELVES AND PEOPLE AROUND THEM. IT WAS NICE. AND SEASON 2 SO FAR, ALL OF THAT JUST FEELS STRIPPED AWAY. IM DISAPPOINTED, I MISS WHAT THEY WERE IN SEASON 1. THIS JUST FELT LIKE TOY SELLER AFTER TOY SELLER REALLY, LIKE THEY MADE A WHOLE THING OUT OF THE TERRANS FUSING TOGETHER FOR 2 EPISODES AND THEN ITS JUST. . . FORGOTTEN? STARSCREAM TOO, IM REALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH HOW THEY HANDLED HIM IN COMPARISON TO SEASON 1. HE LACKED THE IMPLIED NUANCE OF SEASON 1S STARSCREAM COMPLETELY, AND WE HARDLY GOT ANYTHING IN THE WAY OF AN EXPLAINATION AS TO HOW HE BECAME THE WAY HE IS IN SEASON 2. ITS REALLY REALLY UPSETTING TO ME, TO BE HONEST, HOW MUCH OF IT SO FAR FEELS LIKE TOO FAR A FALL FROM SEASON 1S QUALITY. AND I THINK A MIX OF THE TRANSPHOBIA ABOUT NIGHTSHADE BEING NONBINARY CAUSING CONSERVATIVE REVIEW BOMBING AND HASBROS SHOOTING THE SHOW IN THE FOOT FROM THE START ANYWAYS IS A HUGE PART OF WHY WE DONT HAVE THE SAME QUALITY WE SHOULDVE GOT. I THINK IT SHOWS THEY WERE PLAYING IT SAFE TOO, CONSIDERING THE LACK OF QUEERNESS IN THIS SEASON TOO, IM NOT SAYING THEY HAVE TO “MAKE ALL OF IT QUEER” BUT THE MOMENTS OF ROMANCE FEEL STRANGE AND FORCED PLOT TO ME, LIKE SOME KINDA. . . SAVING THE SHOW FROM LAST SEASONS ANTI QUEER HATE OR SOMETHING. ALL OF THIS SAID THOUGH, THESE ARE ONLY 9 EPISODES. THE PLOT PRESENTED FOR THEM IS OVER NOW ALREADY, AND IM STAYING HOPEFUL THE NEXT BATCHES OF EPISODES WERE GONNA GET WILL BE MUCH BETTER. AND ALSO IT WASNT COMPLETELY IRRIDEEMABLE, I LOVED AFTERMATH AS A CHARACTER, AND THE RIVALRY BETWEEN TWITCH AND SPITFIRE WAS PRETTY INTERESTING AT TIMES, LOVED THE HELL OUT OF THE FIRST EPISODE WITH BREAKDOWN GENUINELY WANTING TO BE A DAD TO AFTERMATH IM THINKING ABOUT THAT A LOT. COSMOS WAS CUTE ALSO, BUT SHOULDVE GOT MORE SCREENTIME.


I DONT HAVE MUCH FOR IDW THIS WEEK, I FINISHED MEGATRON SPOTLIGHT THATS ABOUT IT, IVE HAD SOME OTHER STUFF TO GET TO UNFORTUNATELY, AND SINCE IM GETTING TO THE POINT WHERE IM LIKE “IM GONNA BE SAD WHEN I FINISH THIS PLEASE NEVER END” IT WAS KINDA GOOD TO TAKE A BREATHER TO SHAKE SOME OF THAT OFF. THE MEGATRON SPOTLIGHT THOUGH, JESUS MAN. THE WHOLE THING OF HIM AND STARSCREAM WAS FUCKED. THEY HAVE A REALLY FUCKING WEIRD AND MESSED UP RELATIONSHIP. THEY COULD KILL ONE ANOTHER AND NOT BAT AN EYE AND YET THEY WONT BECAUSE THEY VALUE EACH OTHER FOR DIFFERENT REASONS. SO YOU JUST GET MEGATRON BEATS STARSCREAM TO NEAR DEATH THE COMIC. IT WAS ALMOST AS HARD TO READ AS IT WAS TO WATCH THE TIME HE LEGITIMATELY BEAT STARSCREAM TO DEATH IN COMPLETE SILENCE IN CYBERVERSE, TO BE HONEST THE ONLY PART OF IT MAKING IT A LITTLE EASIER WAS IT BEING IN COMIC FORMAT AND NOT A SHOW LIKE CYBERVERSE.THANK GOD THEYRE OUT OF EACHOTHERS WAY (MOSTLY) BY THE END OF IDW.


OUTSIDE OF ALL OF THAT UM. . . (DAMN I TALK A LOT ABOUT ROBOTS FOR THE PAST NEAR YEAR. MY BRAIN IS FRIED) I HOMEBREWED MY WII THIS WEEK LOL. KINDA DISAPPOINTING BECAUSE I COULDNT GET DVDS TO RUN ON IT (ONE OF THE REASONS I DID IT WAS BECAUSE WE HAVE A STUPID AMOUNT OF DVDS IN OUR HOUSE AND NOTHING TO WATCH THEM ON) AND I CANT FIGURE OUT HOW TO RUN WII ROMS ON IT. . . THERES A WAY, BUT THE ONLY PROGRAM I COULD FIND TO CONVERT ROMS INTO THE CORRECT FILE IS ONLY DOWNLOADABLE THROUGH A FUCKIN VIRUS RIDDLED WEBSITE. I HAD TO RUN FUCKIN MALWAREBYTES 3 TIMES OVER TO GET RID OF EVERYTHING AND UNINSTALL SOME SHIT IT PUT THERE. ILL GO LOOKING AGAIN FOR SOMETHING ELSE BUT FOR NOW IVE LOST A BIT OF STEAM IN TRYING SO MAYBE IN A COUPLE WEEKS ILL FIX THAT N SEE ABT GETTING SOME OF THE GAMES RUNNING ON IT. THAT ASIDE I REALISE IVE BEEN DOING A LOT OF PROGRAM CRACKING AND HOMEBREWING CONSOLES THIS WEEK, I ALSO CRACKED A COPY OF CSP 3. IT WAS STUPID EASY. I WONT PUT IT HERE BECAUSE I DONT WANNA GET SCOPED OR GET THE LINK TAKEN DOWN BUT IT SHOULDNT BE TOO HARD TO FIND FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO DO THE SAME. ITS AS EASY AS GETTING PTS FOR FREE WAS NOW FOR REFERENCE. AND THATS A GOOD THING TO ME PERSONALLY, PTS DESERVES CASH, ONLY 1 GUY MADE IT N ALL.


AND NOW FOR UMM, A LITTLE WHINE ABOUT SOCIAL MEDIA. I WONT GET INTO THE DETAILS OF IT SINCE IT FRANKLY DESERVES TO STAY CONTAINED ON THE WEBSITE IT ALL WENT DOWN ON NOR IS IT REALLY OVER AND FRANKLY I DONT WANT TO BECOME INVOLVED IN IT WHEN I CAN STAY ON THE CLOSE SIDELINES THAT ARE ALREADY TOO MUCH TO BE ON, BUT. IM REALLY AWARE RIGHT NOW ABOUT HOW MUCH I HATE THIS SHIT. I HATE SOCIAL MEDIA AND I WISH MY BRAIN COULD PERMANENTLY STAY BACK FROM IT. I HATE THAT I CANT PUT TRUST IN PEOPLE AND I HATE THE FREQUENCY OF CALLOUTS AND I HATE THE SPECTACLE OF TELLING PEOPLE SOMEONES BAD INSTEAD OF JUST QUIETLY INFORMING THOSE WHO NEED TO KNOW. AND I JUST FEEL LIKE SO MUCH OF IT IS BAD FOR ME, NOT TO TOUCH ON IT ALL OVER BUT ITS THE OCD, STUFF LIKE THIS DOESNT AFFECT ME LIKE A NORMAL PERSON. I REALLY NEED TO LEARN TO STAY AWAY PERMANENTLY, LEAST FROM TWITTER BECAUSE OTHER PLACES ARE MUCH MORE LAX TO ME. I THOUGHT JUST HAVING QUIET PRIVATE SPACES FOR MYSELF WOULD CHANGE THE EXPERIENCE BUT IT DOESNT. ITS UNFORTUNATE BECAUSE THAT SEEMS TO BE THE BEST PLACE FOR FANART OF MY INTERESTS ANYMORE, BUT IDK IF THATS WORTH MY MENTAL PEACE. I FEEL A LITTLE GROSS THAT IM, FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD, “ADDICTED” TO IT. BUT I THINK RECENT EVENTS MAKE ME WANNA JUST PUT A PERMANENT STOP TO IT NOW, IF I CANT QUARANTINE MY SPACE TO BE BETTER ON IT THEN ITS NOT A SPACE I WANT TO BE IN.


ANYWAYS THATS MY LITTLE SHITHEAD RANT OF THE WEEK. VERY MIXED BAG OF DAYS SINCE LAST THURSDAY. BUT ALL THE WHILE IVE BEEN HAVING FUN WITH MY SITE, CODING MY TF SHRINE PAGE AND STUFF. I AM PLANNING ON GIVING MY MAIN PAGE, AND POSSIBLY THE ENTIRE SITE, AN OVERHAUL IN THE COMING WEEKS, IVE DECIDED I WANT TO LET GO OF TEMPLATES I USED INITIALLY AND SEE WHAT I CAN MAKE ON MY OWN, SINCE I KNOW ENOUGH TO PUT SOMETHING NICE LOOKING TOGETHER FROM SCRATCH NOW. SO EXPECT A CHANGE IN SITE APPEARANCE SOON.THATS ALL I HAVE FOR THIS WEEK, SEE U SUCKERZ LATERZ

TRAVIS, YOUR EPIC WEBMASTER

ARRGH WELL HELLO THERE HAPPY JUNE HAPPY PRIDE MONTH ITS THE FIRST THURSDAY OF JUNE AND IM BACK AGAIN AS USUAL. WHAT DO I HAVE TO SAY WELL TO BE HONEST NOT MUCH NOTHING TOO CRAZY HAS BEEN HAPPENING.


LETS START OFF BY TALKING ABOUT PRIDE! YAY! TECHNICALLY WHERE I LIVE ALL THE PARADES DONT HAPPEN UNTIL AROUND OCTOBER, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE WE MOSTLY CELEBRATE WORLD WIDE TOGETHER REGARDLESS OF THAT SO WHATEVER MAN. AS MY USUAL TRADITION IVE DRAWN MY FURSONA WITH MY PRIDE FLAGS ALL OVER AS BADGES AND HIS SHIRT, ILL PROBABLY ADD IT TO MY ART TAB AS THIS GOES UP, I DIDNT WANT TO UPLOAD IT RIGHT AWAY SINCE I ONLY JUST POSTED SOME DOODLES ID MADE. SPEAKING OF THAT TAB I REALLY NEED TO ADD A SEE MORE BUTTON UNDER THE OLDER WORKS AND MAKE A BIG ARCHIVE OF ALL MY ART THERE. IM JUST BEING A BIT LAZY RECENTLY BUT ILL DO THAT. ANYWAYS BACK TO THE ACTUAL TOPIC, PRIDE. IVE BEEN QUEER FOR A VERY LONG TIME, SINCE 11. IVE GONE THROUGH MANY LABELS OVER THE YEARS, A PRETTY STANDARD PIPELINE OF CIS BI TO LESBIAN TO TRANS GUY WITH A MORE COMPLICATED SEXUALITY SUMMED UP NEATLY AS “BISEXUAL BUT ALSO PRETTY DAMN DISINTERESTED.” AND MAYBE MY IDENTITY WILL CHANGE AGAIN IN THE FUTURE BUT RIGHT NOW I FEEL THESE FIT ME BEST! N I CANT LIE ITS BEEN HARD IT STILL IS HARD BUT I FEEL MORE LIKE MYSELF NOW THAN I EVER HAVE. AND THATS NICE TO HAVE.


OTHER THAN IT BEING PRIDE MONTH I DONT HAVE MUCH TO TALK ABOUT, BEEN A PRETTY LAME WEEK IF IM BEING HONEST, I THINK IM SHAKING OFF THE BURNOUT ID BEEN FEELING LAST MONTH ABOUT ART THOUGH, IVE DRAWN A LOT OVER THE PAST COUPLE DAYS (SOME OF WHICH I CANT SHARE UNTIL LATER. . .) THATS BEEN PRETTY NICE. I HATE WHEN I CANT FIND THE ENERGY TO DRAW, I LIKE BEING ABLE TO DO SOMETHING AND ART IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE THINGS TO DO.


NOT TOO MUCH TO SAY ABOUT IDW FOR THIS WEEK, STILL READING BUT SLOW BECAUSE WELL . . . IM GONNA BE SO SAD WHEN I FINISH IT. I SEE MTMTE GETTING CLOSER AND CLOSER AND IM LIKE FUUUCK. ALREADY? I HAVE NO IDEA IF IM GONNA READ MTMTE AS WELL WITH ALL OF THIS OR NOT, I DID REREAD IT PRETTY RECENTLY LIKE MAYBE JUST SOME MONTHS AGO SO. . . IDK. ITD BE PRETTY FUN TO SEE IT ALL AGAIN WITH FINALLY HAVING FULL CONTEXT TO WHATS REFERENCED IN IT. AND TO BE ABLE TO KINDA SWITCH BETWEEN MTMTE AND THE STORIES IVE YET TO READ THAT ARE TAKING PLACE IN THAT SAME KINDA ERA. BUT I ALSO DONT WANNA WEAR IT OUT TOO MUCH EITHER SO ILL PROBABLY JUST READ THE STUFF I HAVENT YET. IM CURRENTLY IN THE ONES JUST CALLED TRANSFORMERS AND FUCK MAN. THEY BLEW UP MY BOY FUCK! THEY FUCKIN SHOT A GIANT HOLE IN HIS CHEST IM SO FUCKING NUTS RN! HELP!!! WELL I KNOW HE LIVES SINCE OBVIOUSLY HES ONE OF THE MAIN CAST IN MTMTE BUT STILL MAN FUCK. THE WAY IT HAPPENS TOO IS CRAZY TO ME MEGATRON LITERALLY JUST PULLS UP AND IS LIKE HEY MAN :) CANNON TIME AND FUCKING BLASTS HIS ASS ACROSS SPACE WITH A HOLE IN HIS CHEST. JESUS FUCK. I KINDA WISH IT WAS REFERENCED IN MTMTE CONSIDERING RODIMUS AND MEGATRONS FUTURE RELATIONSHIP BUT AH WELL I GUESS ITS NOT THERE. OR MAYBE THERES SOMETHING IN SOME OF THE OTHER STUFF IVE NOT SEEN JUST YET. DAMN I HATE BEING STUCK BETWEEN I REALLLLY WANNA KNOW WHATS HAPPENING NEXT AND I DONT WANNA FINISH IT IM GONNA MISS IT. SUCKS.


JUST REALISED THERES ACTUALLY A LOT OF TF NEWS I HAVE THIS WEEK FUCK LOL. TOMORROW SEASON 2 OF EARTHSPARK STARTS AND IM SO DAMN EXCITED. IM GONNA WATCH IT AS SOON AS I CAN, HOPEFULLY WITH FRIENDS! EARTHSPARK IS A REALLY GOOD SHOW AND I REALLY WISH IT WASNT LOCKED ONTO AN OBSCURE STREAMING SITE AND NOT GIVEN MUCH LIGHT BY HASBRO. . . MEANING THE RUMORS ABOUT IT BEING CANCELLED AFTER THIS SEASON SOMETHING TO ACTUALLY WORRY ABOUT I GUESS. NOTHING IS SOLID SO FAR BUT IT ISNT LOOKING TOO GOOD I GUESS. I HOPE THEY PROVE US WRONG. COME ON MAN YOU CANT DO IT BEFORE SEASON 3 YOU KNOW THE PATTERN TF SHOW GETS A 3 SEASON RUN THEN IT GETS CANNED. AT LEAST STICK TO THAT. IDK WHAT TO EXPECT OUT OF THIS NEW SEASON, IM A LITTLE WORRIED ABOUT STARSCREAMS CHARACTER RETCONNING WHAT THEYD SET UP IN SEASON 1 BUT OTHER THAN THAT I REALLLLLY DONT KNOW WHATS GONNA COME OUT OF THIS. ILL PROBABLY GIVE MY THOUGHTS ON IT NEXT WEEK (PROBABLY? I MEAN DEFINITELY WHY WOULD I FUCKIN NOT.)


UMM WHAT ELSE CAN I TALK ABOUT. . . NOT MUCH REALLY, THIS WEEKS BEEN IMMENSELY BORING AND TO BE QUITE HONEST DEPRESSING, YEA I FEEL LIKE SHIT WHATS NEW I GUESS. LOL. I THINK I KNOW WHY THAT IS AND ALL IM HOPING FOR IS THAT ITLL PASS SOON CUZ THIS SUCKS. BEING MENTALLY ILL SUCKS. SO UH YEAH THATS. PRETTY MUCH IT. SO LONG SUCKERZ
