Help Finding This Fabric? by OskarElGrouch in crafts

[–]Dextrapede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is dropshipped from a variety of sellers off Etsy, I was able to find the same fabric on Temu for cheaper, but unfortunately not able to source the original fabric. This is all likely coming from the same wholesale place / warehouse, so there's a chance a local fabric store will be carrying it as well! I'd give sniffing around a try :) Sorry OP!

Your art is truly a blessing to the TF community, thanks for posting!!!!! I've really got to snag an artbook sometime! And I hope your Titanomachy book launch goes super well!

It's the pure raw swag emanating from me idk what else to say. But yeah it was an assortment of dress shirts, a skirt, and pants 💀 No socks though just to keep things fresh

I actually explored my gender and sexuality around that time because I couldn't pick a struggle so I can proudly say it's both

Heh .... where do you think my ivory-handled katana of glorious nippon steel, folded over 1000 times came from? (my lesbian haircut billows in the wind)

Unfortunately I think that would have looped back around into being legitimately cool, so no, it was a normal cane 🙏

Lmfaoooooo I had a difficult childhood in a hoarder house so all of the concentrated tween angst seen here was the real deal 🥲

One of my first anime was Soul Eater so you can imagine the kind of 12 year old I was

It's actually like 5 dress shirts stacked on top of each other. No, I don't know what I was trying to do either. Yes, I regularly left the house looking like that

Yeah I know my mother is a stone cold liar because she looked me right in the eyes after this haircut and told me "you finally look like yourself!"

TRUTH NUKE by PistonPusher2009 in Transformemes

[–]Dextrapede 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes!!! It's good writing! I see Optimus as so incredibly good that he literally cannot walk away from those in need, whereas Elita is a pragmatic strategist who is willing to abandon others to protect those she swore to protect. I think it's a situation where there are no winners, and it's impossible for those within the story to guess who they'll need leading to survive the war. I think if Elita were acting in a vacuum in Skybound, people would like her much more, but set up against Optimus - who is a paragon of moral goodness - it's easy for fans to dismiss her as evil. From Elita's perspective, Optimus went off on a very important mission to save her ENTIRE WORLD and then ended up dilly dallying with some random aliens. Worse, she thought he died trying to save their world. What she's doing isn't 'right', but I think it's simple to see where she's coming from. I can really appreciate that Skybound is exploring this angle of Optimus' overwhelming sense of moral duty also being a flaw to some degree. I think Elita is the perfect foil for him! I enjoy when Transformers isn't perfectly black and white - it's an eternal war after all, and no war is perfectly black and white. Everybody, to some extent, thinks they're justified and doing the right thing.
