DOC - HE/IT/THIS ONE - 24 - Transformers enjoyer, Towers enjoyer, artist, jack of all trades. I'm neurodivergent and disabled so please bear with me. Profile banner drawn by me, of my oc Hedron! Message and ask box always open. https://cablestwisted.carrd.co/
I'm Doc - a jack-of-all-trades craftsperson, artist, costume maker, and occasionally writer from the UK. I'm a trans man and use he/him, it/its, and this one/that one pronouns.

Please read this post before following or messaging me!
My current and long-standing special interest is Transformers, and I post about that, Alton Towers, and my many other interests a lot. On here I'm most known for lore analysis and theory posts, but on other platforms I'm known mainly for my art, fashion, cosplays, and videos! Hoping to get more art up on here asap.
Please don't take heavy reference from, trace, or otherwise copy my artwork without permission!

Under 16s - be aware that I'm an adult. Please do not DM me, ask to be mutuals, tag me in things, etcetera, but you can send asks/interact with my blog with reblogs, likes, and comments. Please do not spam comments!
I write horror based and generally dark content thus if you're sensitive to that you may find that this is not the blog for you. My art can also focus on these topics!
I am disabled! Please be patient with me.

Guidelines of interaction:
In this space we respect people of all ethnicities, spiritual beliefs, genders, & sexualities. We support low income & working class individuals, disabled people, queer people, immigrants, sex workers, neurodiversity, & abortion rights. We fight for equity, justice, an inclusive & accessible future - we prioritise consent, respect, community, & safety.
Discrimination and bullying will NOT be tolerated here.
ACAB. No Nazis, Tories, TERFs, or Exclusionists. No pedophiles or zoophiles. No anti-vaxers, no anti-maskers. Respect asexuals and polyamorous people or leave.
If you are anti kink, anti nsfw, or support bans on sexual/kink content, activity, and shops - even though this space is SFW I do ask that you leave. Remember - bans & restrictions on this kind of thing disproportionately affect marginalised individuals and censor queer voices, and infringe on everyone's autonomy. Discrimination against kinksters is very real, look into Operation Spanner and many other cases like it.
Also if you don't like furries, therians, & otherkin, you might be in the wrong place.
---------
Asks/Inbox and Lore Archiving:
My asks are ALWAYS open but be aware that it may take me a while to respond!
I used to write lore rambles off asks a lot, but rarely do now - I'm never sure what people want to know and asks show me what people are interested in knowing/give me a jump-off point for lore analysis. So if you're interested in anything to do with the lore of Transformers [Aligned Continuity novels especially], Alton Towers, or just anything about either, feel free to ask me questions via the ask box anytime.
Everything expressed in this regard is personal opinion based on my own investigations. I am not an authority on the backstories of anything I like unless its something I made myself. TL;DR - take what I say with a pinch of salt. Ideally a handful of salt.
Alton Towers lore posts are always archived at @marmaliser so if you want to just read through my ATR lore posts, give it a follow!

Gift art and theory referencing:
Please please ask if it's ok before drawing my OCs or including my OCs in fanworks, and especially before drawing or writing about my OCs with other people/other people's OCs! I really appreciate and welcome people to draw my guys but they're all incredibly personal characters to me and in many ways are a part of my brain.
In a similar vein, please don't make characters with heavy inspiration from or based on my characters, it makes me highly uncomfortable! Please don't make OCs based on or heavily inspired by me at all - if you have any questions please feel free to ask.
If you reference my theories in your own theories/fanfics/etcetera, please tag me, I'd absolutely love to see what you come up with!
-------
Tagging System and Notification Disclaimer:
I try to tag interests and generic triggers but operate on an ask to tag basis, meaning that if you need something tagging, please just let me know via the ask box!
I'll try my best to remember to tag things but sometimes things slip through - just send me a gentle reminder through DM or my ask box so I can get back to you. I have memory problems, so sometimes things get missed.
Please remember that I have my tumblr notifications off, so sometimes I miss things even though tags and asks are meant to email me.

I absolutely blame Facebook for this shift. Words cannot describe how freaking WEIRD it was in the mid-00s when there was suddenly this popular website where you were required to use your real, brickspace name and encouraged to post photos of yourself. Every single bit of Standard Internet Safety prior to then said that you should never ever ever do either of those.
you have to forgive the printer because it's one of the most machine-ass machines we interact with on a day to day basis. that thing says kerchunk. hardly anything says kerchunk these days. you can't get mad at her when she kerchunks up a little.

Honestly, as a German I can not quite understand the obsession of the English speaking world with the question whether a word exists or not. If you have to express something for which there is no word, you have to make a new one, preferably by combining well-known words, and in the very same moment it starts to exist. Agree?
Deutsche Freunde, could you please create for me a word for the extreme depression I feel when I bend down to pick up a piece of litter and discover two more pieces of litter?
ver = prefix to indicate something difficult or negative, a change that leads to deterioration or even destruction that is difficult to reverse or to undo, or a strong negative change of the mental state of a person
der Müll = garbage, trash, rubbish, litter
-ung = -ing
die Vermüllung = littering
ver- = see before
zweifeln = to doubt
-ung = see before
die Verzweiflung = despair, exasperation, desperation
@shiplocks-of-love I don’t think that will happen. The words make perfect sense. I think if German is your mother tongue you get a feeling for combining words, like a
• irren = to become lost (also: to err, to be mistaken; to wander, to stray)
• der Garten = garden
der Irrgarten = maze, knot garden
• be- = prefix with a variety of functions: ¹as part of a compound word, it denotes a processing or change of state; ²as part of a compound word, it denotes a touch; ³as part of a compound word, it denotes a more intensive preoccupation with or thematization of something; ⁴it forms from a noun an adjective with a pseudo-participle form because the corresponding verb does not exist; ⁵as a prefix, it forms a transitive verb from a previously intransitive verb; ⁶as a prefix of a verb, it shifts the focus and thus changes the sentence structure
• lustig = funny
• -ung = suffix turning an adjective/adverb into a noun
die Belustigung = amusement, entertainment, merriment
der Beitrag = contribution, article in a newspaper or magazine, posting on social media, input to a discussion
The thing is, since in German you have to decline/conjugate many words in relation to the noun they are refering to those monster words actually serve a purpose of making the language simpler.
A common example is a (as in any) red wine (ein roter Wein) as compaired to the compound a red wine (ein Rotwein). If rot is an adjective it has to be conjugated: der rote Wein - des roten Weins - die roten Weine - and many more. But it if rot is part of the noun you only have to decline Wein: der Rotwein - des Rotweins - die Rotweine.
So, die Verzweiflung über die Vermüllung der Umwelt is way longer than Umweltvermüllungsverzweiflung and you would have to know three grammatical genders and the words’ respective declinations. Whereas for Umweltvermüllungsverzweiflung you only need to know that Verzweiflung is grammatically feminine (die) and its deklinations.

I want someone to make one of these new sterile teen gay romance shows on Netflix but halfway through they pull a Doki Doki Literature Club and it turns into a fucked up fourth wall breaking psychological thriller that deconstructs the heteronormative and middle class ideals of the genre
Why is it that every time I google something like "Are olives poisonous to cats" the top results are always like "Fun fact: Cats are carnivores! This means that they eat meat. There is no reason to include olives in a cat's diet. You should feed your cat cat food, which is dry or wet food especially designed for cats. You can purchase this at a store." like is there a single person alive on the planet who's googled "Are blueberry muffins safe for cats" because they're planning on switching their cat to a muffin-only diet??? No, I'm asking because the little bastard somehow popped open the packet while I was putting away the groceries and dragged one under the couch before I could react and now I need to know if I should call the after-hours vet. "Cats should not eat spaghetti." NO SHIT, SHERLOCK!!!! "Try to keep human food away from cats." i live in a studio apartment with a completely silent and permanently hungry apex predator who has the intelligence of a toddler and the desperate Machiavellian cunning of a creature who spent his formative months on the streets. He can already open doors and he is this 👌 close to learning how to open the microwave. He is stronger than me and covered in knives. So im gonna do my best but for the moment i just need you to tell me whether this yoghurt is going to kill my son y/n
I've been using the pet poison hotline's poison list cause it has a search function. It also tells you whether something is mildly, moderately, or severely toxic which can be very handy! It doesn't contain like everything but it might be a good place to start, it also includes plants for fellow houseplant lovers <3
Explore Pet Poison Helpline®s vast knowledge on poisons by reviewing our pet poison list. Explore our top 10 poison and holiday poison lists
For plants specifically, there’s also a wildly detailed set of posts and listings about toxicity on the old, wonderful, Plants Are the Strangest People blog
inat has options for this! for each observation you upload, you can choose to keep the location public, not to disclose location at all, or to obscure it.
i'm a fan of the obscured option bc it shows the general area but not the exact coordinates, which allows for region-specific species ids without doxxing you. according to the inat help page it picks a random point within a 500km radius.

So many anti-science (and particularly, anti-vax) people apply their diet and orthorexia culture to medicine. That is one of the things you will hear over and over again. “I actually read the ingredients of this vaccine and it has [SUBSTANCE] in it so I will not let my child get vaccinated.” which is exactly how these people grocery shop, I’m sure. No understanding of chemistry, no research into why that ingredient is in there, what it is doing to help make the vaccine safe and effective and what amount would make it toxic to the human body. They will be like “Oh my god, there is hydrochloric acid in there! I’m not going to research into why it is in there (in small amounts as a PH stabilizer), it’s hydrochloric acid (the human body creates it naturally) and they’re trying to inject this into our children!”
i would almost love to meet one of these people and say ah yes i love drinking Dihydrogen Monoxide with heavy amounts of Citric Acid, Glucose and Limonene (this is a very terrible lemonaid) these ingredients are water, the sour of a lemon, sugar, and lemon flavoring
or just asking if they know the chemicals in a lemon.
Unironically, I saw someone say to avoid citric acid in food products (it’s a common preservative and acidifier, very safe in moderation, occurs naturally in fruits and vegetables) because it is made of black mold. Which is partially correct, Aspergillus niger produces high amounts of citric acid when fed properly BUT the mold is completely filtered out of the final refined product. SO MANY FOOD PRODUCTS ARE MADE WITH MOLD, this one doesn’t have actual mold in it, you are fearmongering about the evils of mold while it lives all around us all the time!
