So I promised that I’d post more about my OCs and I intend to keep it!! So here’s my newest one, MIPS :)

And a little bit of info about him under the cut :D

Pronouns: He/him

Alt: N/A (Monoformer)

Height: 30 ft

MIPS, or “Million Instructions Per Second” (that’s not his real name, but don’t tell him you know that), is the Autobots’ resident mad scientist. He is extremely passionate about his research, obsessively so— to the point where most if not all of his experiments were done on himself for the sake of the advancement of his research and getting the most accurate results possible. Some of these experiments include, but aren’t limited to, his extendable limbs (including his neck, arms, legs, and waist), increasing the sensitivity of his optics to see if it improves the efficiency of his scanning program (at the cost of his optics being much more sensitive to light, and he must wear protective goggles), and the reordering of the pieces of his processor to see its affects on the way he thinks (the effects to which he has since dubbed “clinical scatterbrain”). It’s because of his self experiments that he is no longer able to transform— his body no longer follows the program within his t-cog.

Despite his brilliant mind, his scatterbrain often leaves him with a foggy head. MIPS couldn’t think straight if he wanted to. He doesn’t let this discourage him, he loves it in fact! The fact that he can think so outside the box now and make the wildest connections out of seemingly nothing is an invaluable asset to his research. Only, it comes at the cost of him having difficulty in telling right from wrong, as long as it’s aiding his research. He struggles a lot with impulse control and making the best decisions.

Despite it all, though, MIPS is with the Autobots for a reason. He would never think to actively harm an innocent life, he simply doesn’t see the logical sense in it. If he’s gone too far with one of his experiments thanks to his scatterbrain, all you need to do is tell him, and he’d do his best to make up for it.

aaron bushnell knew exactly what he was doing. he states his intentions with total lucidity and sense of purpose. he knows what he's about to do is extreme--he says so. he speaks calmly, but he's clearly terrified. he takes a deep breath after pouring the accelerant over himself. he has to psyche himself up to light the flame. he struggles with the lighter. he says "free palestine" normally once before he starts to scream it. even through his agony he manages to say it one last time before he stops being able to speak at all. this is a man with total conviction. he wanted to help people, in any way possible. this action was a moral one, and any news outlet painting this as simply a mental health issue is a disservice to his memory. he knew what he was doing when he burned himself in uniform. he knew that there was a chance that sacrificing his own life could go on to save many others. this was the ultimate act of selflessness, and it should be treated as such. may he rest in peace.

If anyone wants the link I have a link to @punisheddonjuan 's post about Aaron Bushnell. It deserves to be seen. It includes a Twitter/X link to the actual post made by Talia Jane that shows Aaron Bushnell self-immolating. DM me and I'll share it to spread the word.

#free palastine #aaron bushnell #im using my side blog to do this just in case this blog gets shot

[spikezonebby]

I have seen so many posts about Aaron Bushnell on my dash today but Tumblr isn't letting me reblog or comment on any of them. So I'm reblogging this because dear fucking god if you don't see why this is such a big deal and why Israel fucking sucks right now just unfollow me.

Aaron Bushnell died. The active duty US soldier who self immolated in front of the Israeli embassy died of his wounds - he died screaming “Free Palestine” as he burned. He said he no longer wanted to be complicit in genocide. This is the second person to self immolate because of Palestinian Genocide and I hope his story doesn’t get swept under the rug like the first.

not to still be all up in arms about the transformers religion but holy fuck, robots having religion is nothing new, they can have theology! that makes sense! robots who are fully sentient seeking out a reason for their souls is totally fine! im not saying the transformers shouldnt believe in primus or the all spark or believe in the 13 primes that whole thing works, it just bothers me that the canon of their religion is canon to the story. why is their planet LITERALLY their god. why is their religion based in literal history. i shouldnt even call it their religion, its just their canonical history. thats the problem! it comes from the perspective of writers who see religious doctrine as real history!

it also sucks for the nature of the robot as a concept! instead of being machines so advanced they are sentient, they are now fully formed beings granted souls by their god. thats no longer synthetic life conceptually, is it? that is a higher being creating life out of nothing. the concept of robots comes from slave labour, machines created by man to further their own advancements. machines created by organic life, not machines granted life by an ethereal being. they were created as commentary on capitalism. it asks the question "if this life is created synthetically, but it forms sentient thought, it is alive?". most other stories containing robots do this. think about overwatch's omnics, mass effects geth, star trek characters like data and the doctor, we the audience see them as alive but people in their worlds have to debate about it. that is the point of science fiction, to have theological discussions about robots.

what disappoints me about transformers isnt the changing of the lore, but the fact they couldnt conceive of anything more interesting to say about robots. i was watching g1 thinking "i cant wait to see future adaptations take this concept and flesh it out", and watching these adaptations strip the nature of the robot entirely from the lore in place of some all powerful god really sucks! imagine if their theology was the same, but their history was not. imagine robots who believe their planet is their god in spite of not actually knowing that to be true. wouldnt that be conceptually more interesting? wouldnt that say something?

instead of a unicron who is just a cosmic horror, a rogue planet who hungers for other worlds to sustain itself, unicron now represents all evil in the universe. hes a being of pure evil, existing as the equal and opposite to the canonically good god primus, the planet of cybertron. that ruins the concept to me. theyre taking the fun of science fiction out of it, turning it into basic "all good in the universe comes from god". it takes the choice of being good or evil out of it. giving them literal souls takes them choosing to say they have souls out of it. it takes the choice of valuing biological life away from the robots themselves to say that it is simply evil to not.

maybe some adaptation i havent gotten to yet will say something else, but as it stands right now im just so disappointed that this is the route it took.

People will gush about how cool tiny houses are but then turn around and shit all over trailers. It’s hypocrisy that absolutely reeks of classism.

Put a rich person in a small house that’s portable and they’re praised for their unique and modern way of living. Show them a family living in a mobile home they renovated themselves and all they’ll see is trailer trash.

It’s just one more addition to the long list of things that are considered trendy for rich people but trashy for everyone else and I’m sick of it.

How about some thundercracker and human.. first contact and language barrier 😈 it can be sfw or nsfw idek and I don't mind if it's ooc or what. DO WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO BBG TBIS IS A FREE SLOT

Thankfully, Laughter is Universal

Warnings: First contact roleplay, size difference, language barrier, established relationship, tickling, mutual masturbation, fingering

Word Count: 1.6k

It took some research and a bit of trial and error, but eventually Thundercracker figured out how to disable his automatic translator which meant he currently had no idea what you were saying. He thought you looked pretty adorable though, jabbering away and moving your arms around like you were playing some silly game of charades. In a way, you were. It just wasn’t going very well.

“Okay, wait- you gotta start over,” he chuckled, holding a servo up to stop you.

You frowned in response, crossing your arms and staring up at him from your place on his bot sized table. He was speaking in Cybertronian and the metallic whir of it sounded like sleek nonsense to you. His simple hand gesture was clearly understood though and you slumped your shoulders in defeat. The two of you had been like this all day, going about your routine while banning your typical communication. Although the language barrier could be frustrating, it was worth it if it meant Thundercracker got to treat you like a charming little exotic pet while you got to be played with and pampered.

Having your own personal Seeker to haul you around was fun for a while, but soon you got annoyed with his antics. Thundercracker often put you on surfaces too high for you to climb down from and left you there while he shuffled around with whatever task he needed to complete. All you could do was whine and complain, doing your best to get his attention. So far, you were unsuccessful in getting him to do anything but coo at you and you wondered if he was just going to tease you all day, or if he would finally cave and give you the kind of attention you really wanted.

“So fussy,” he hummed, taking his large pointer finger and tickling your stomach, making you shuffle away with a smile while trying not to laugh.

“Ah-ah-ah-“ he grinned, bringing his other servo behind you to pull you closer and keep you from escaping, “Where do you think you’re running off to? There’s nowhere to go but down, and we can’t have you getting hurt now can we?”

He knew you couldn’t understand a single word out of his mouth, but you still looked at him like your mind was trying to turn the strange sounds into something coherent. Your thoughts were interrupted by seeing his affectionate smile and it made your frustration start to fade. It was hard to stay mad at him when he watched you with those sweet optics, so you smiled in return and he beamed back even brighter.

“Hey, there ya go!” He cheered, tickling your stomach once again, making you squirm. 

You couldn’t get away from him now that his servo was cradled behind you, so you were left helpless with laughter while you writhed around, trying to dodge his digit poking at your sides. You attempted to shove him off, but he was too strong to resist. Pretty soon you’d be laughing so hard you’d cry. Eventually though you got a momentary break as his digit hooked under the bottom of your shirt and pulled up. You squeaked out some sort of protest, but it did nothing to deter Thundercracker.

It seemed like he wanted the whole thing to come off. He pinched the cloth between his digits and gently tugged up until you reluctantly lifted your arms, letting him easily slip the garment off your frame. Without warning he went right back to tickling you and you yelped, squirming even harder this time. He was laughing along with you now, enjoying your charming state of helplessness until he’d driven you to sit down, tucking in your knees and leaning against his servo to try and hide your stomach from his relentless touch.

“Aw, c’mon now,” Thundercracker pouted with a playful lilt in his voice.

He lightly walked his digits from the top of your knee down your leg and all the way to your ankle before pinching the fabric there too and tugging again. You obviously got the message but didn’t budge since it was entertaining watching him fumble with your tiny clothes. With you laughing at him now, he pulled harder, tugging with enough strength to make your back slide down his servo. 

You huffed, putting on a dramatic show of frustration while you relented and awkwardly wiggled out of your pants. He purred unintelligible praises to you for complying with his wishes and soon his digits were back on you, roaming your naked body freely. All of your garments were tossed to the side, leaving you bare for him. His touch was more focused this time, soft and slow, coaxing you to relax into him. 

Thundercracker glanced to meet your gaze, trying to hide a smile as he tickled your side once again. He laughed when you swatted his digit away, your dainty hands barely having any effect. Thundercracker tilted his helm towards you and pulled his digits back a bit, giving you a look that hopefully communicated that he was done torturing you with tickles. You narrowed your eyes at him and raised a brow, suspicious that this was a trick. He quickly proved you wrong though as his servo moved closer and he nudged at your knee, prying your legs apart.

That was convincing enough for you. You knew him well enough to know that if his focus had shifted like this, you were safe, so you relaxed and opened your legs wider for him. Without any mass displacement, his digits were huge and he had to be delicate with them if he wanted to touch you like this. With practiced care he gently trailed his pointer digit down the inside of your thigh until he reached your sex and tentatively prodded at your pussy. 

When you looked up at him with a grin, he stilled his movement, resting his digit so you could grind your hips against it. He hummed in satisfaction as you slowly rocked your hips, coating his digit in your slick. You reached down and began to circle your clit as you moved, looking up at him with hazy eyes. Thundercracker wanted to be patient, but that look got him excited. He could feel his spike pressurizing behind his panels and decided there was really no reason to wait.

When you heard the whir of transformation you knew he’d opened his panels, making you laugh at his predictability. He didn’t react to your teasing though, too focused on how good you looked grinding against him. Thundercracker began stroking his spike, slowly letting it pressurize fully in his fist. Now that he was seeking his own pleasure, you slowed your rocking and reached down to grab his digit, guiding him to your entrance. He let out a low hum before beginning to press the tip of his digit into you. Even just one was a stretch with his massive size, but it was incredibly satisfying, filling you in a way no human ever could.

Thundercracker pressed in as deep as his digit could go before pulling back out again. Though you couldn’t take his spike, he liked to imagine what it would be like, so he timed the pumping of his spike to mirror the thrusting of his digit. He fantasized about that wet warmth welcoming him and how good it would feel to have your walls fluttering around him. You’d often thought about the same thing, daydreaming about him being small enough so you could feel his hips pressing into yours. But this was still enough to satisfy. The warm stretch of his digit and the way he had to be careful with you was exciting, and knowing this was all it took for him to get off made you feel powerful.

Your breath grew heavy as his pace quickened, making you arch your back and letting a moan escape your lips. His cooling fans stirred to life prompted by the rush of warmth he felt from your sounds of pleasure. Thundercracker let out a low moan of his own, watching you with half lidded optics as you chased your high. Your orgasm was fast approaching and he could feel it from the way you clenched around him. He smiled softly as you reached out behind you to grab at his servo, grounding yourself as you bucked your hips back against his movements. Little moans and gasps poured from your mouth, the enticing sounds sending a surge of pleasure through Thundercracker.

With a few more thrusts of his digit you came around him, crying out and gripping his servo hard as your orgasm washed over you. He didn’t stop thrusting though, keeping his movements steady and matching the pace of the servo wrapped around his spike until he too overloaded. Thundercracker’s digit finally stilled inside you as his brow furrowed and ropes of transfluid poured from his spike. He moaned softly and panted as he rode out his overload and the last pulses of pleasure surged through him.

Both of you were breathing hard and you quietly watched each other with a hazy gaze as you came down. Thundercracker had a crooked smile on his face as he slipped his digit out of you and in one swift movement, the servo supporting your back scooped your body up and brought you to his face. Kissing him at this size was a bit awkward since he couldn’t be very precise, so he simply puckered his lips, silently asking for you to kiss and nuzzle against him. Of course you were happy to indulge in his sweet request, content to shower him in affection until the time came for the two of you to clean up. 

Neither of you needed to use words to know how to care for each other at this moment, but you quietly hoped turning the translator back on wouldn’t take as long as it did to figure out how to turn it off.

the funny thing is that i don't think younger people - and i mean those under the age of 40 - really have a grasp on how many of today's issues can be tied back to a disastrous reagan policy:

war on drugs: reagan's aggressive escalation of the war on drugs was a catastrophic policy, primarily targeting minority communities and fueling mass incarceration. the crusade against drugs was more about controlling the Black, Latino and Native communities than addressing the actual problems of drug abuse, leading to a legacy of broken families and systemic racism within the criminal justice system.

deregulation and economic policies: reaganomics was an absolute disaster for the working class. reagan's policies of aggressive tax cuts for the rich, deregulation, and slashing social programs were nothing less than class warfare, deepening income inequality and entrenching corporate greed. these types of policies were a clear message that reagan's america was only for the wealthy elite and a loud "fuck you" to working americans.

environmental policies: despite his reputation being whitewashed thanks to the recovery of the ozone layer, reagan's environmental record was an unmitigated disaster. his administration gutted critical environmental protections and institutions like the EPA, turning a blind eye to pollution and corporate exploitation of natural resources. this blatant disregard for the planet was a clear sign of prioritizing short-term corporate profits over the future of the environment.

AIDS crisis: reagan's gross neglect of the aids crisis was nothing short of criminal and this doesn't even begin to touch on his wife's involvement. his administration's indifference to the plight of the lgbtq+ community during this devastating epidemic revealed a deep-seated bigotry and a complete failure of moral leadership.

mental health: reagan's dismantling of mental health institutions under the guise of 'reform' led directly to a surge in homelessness and a lack of support for those with mental health issues. his policies were cruel and inhumane and showed a personality-defining callous disregard for the most vulnerable in society.

labor and unions: reagan's attack on labor unions, exemplified by his handling of the patco strike, was a blatant assault on workers' rights. his actions emboldened corporations to suppress union activities, leading to a significant erosion of workers' power and rights in the workplace. he was colloquially known as "Ronnie the Union Buster Reagan"

foreign policy and military interventions: reagan's foreign policy, particularly in latin america, was imperialist and ruthless. his administration's support for dictatorships and right-wing death squads under the guise of fighting "communism" showed a complete disregard for human rights and self-determination of other nations.

public health: yes, reagan's agricultural policies actually facilitated the rise of high fructose corn syrup, once again prioritizing corporate profits over public health. this shift in the food industry has had lasting negative impacts on health, contributing to the obesity epidemic and other health issues.

privatization: reagan's push for privatization was a systematic dismantling of public services, transferring wealth and power to private corporations and further eroding the public's access to essential services.

education policies: his approach to education was more of an attack on public education than anything else, gutting funding and promoting policies that undermined equal access to quality education. this was, again, part of a broader agenda to maintain a status quo where the privileged remain in power.

this is just what i could come up with in a relatively short time and i did not even live under this man's presidency. the level at which ronald reagan has broken the united states truly can't be overstated.
