having a friend that’s as insane about The Character as you is great because you can say something like “he’s so chewable” and not only will they agree, they’ll say something equally as insane like “he’s like children’s medicine”
I've wanted to put up a bunch of pegboards on the walls of every room in the house for a while just bc there's so much Clutter (art supplies and dog supplies and Medical Supplies mostly) and only so much horizontal space. but they're all boring and ugly so I'm painting them first so it'll be nice to look at :)
progresssss
did you have to use that photo for that
i mean good on them...? still paired with that image thats uh. interesting
I respect the fuck out of this. The whole site is trying its hardest to go against every selling point the dog robots have as its selling points.
The dog robots are supposed to be autonomous, threehalves is explicitly only for being piloted by a human. The giant horns make it difficult for this machine to enter through doorways, and that is the point. Coupled with the built-in weak points, it is very easy to disable this thing, so it can't be used by the police or the military effectively.
OP alluded to how unsettling the machine looks, and I believe that it was a concious decision; the robot dogs have garnered sympathy due to their apperance, which makes it easier for the police to morally justify their use. This thing? You're not gonna get many people to sympathise with it. The only people who would are monster and-or robot fuckers, and I believe these circles generally understand that a machine cannot be trusted (though of course many would willingly approach it for pervert reasons (positive) knowing full well it's a bad idea).
oh yeah i saw everyone on tiktok freaking out about "if it can't harm humans why does it come with instructions to kill it" it's a safety feature in case of an emergency or malfunction where it needs to be quickly deactivated. "why is it so big and demonic why does it look like that" it's a safety feature so it can do dangerous labor and so you don't feel bad about killing it. "it was designed not to be able to follow you through doors?? why the fuck would it do that that's scary" it's a safety feature so you can't get cornered or have the person piloting it misuse it. "it doesn't have hands but it can attach CHAINSAWS to its limbs???" it's MADE TO WITHSTAND WILDFIRES IT'S NOT GONNA USE IT ON YOU "this thing gives me such bad vibes i do not trust it" GOOD!!! IT'S A ROBOT!!! IT IS A TOOL!!! IT'S A REALLY BIG AND COMPLICATED MACHINE THAT IS DESIGNED TO GO IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS WHICH WOULD MEAN IT COULD POTENTIALLY MALFUNCTION! USE YOUR BRAIN!!!
admittedly i do think that picture of it standing in the doorway with glowing white eyes is like comically frightening but it's SUPPOSED to be so you don't feel bad for it or approach it
quite frankly i didn't realize enough people still used wattpad for this to be that big of an issue
there is a very specific type of political enlightenment when you allow yourself to acknowledge bad people can be attractive and funny and intelligent and still be bad people because those things don’t quantify morality
“i’ve never met a pretty racist” “republican makeup” etc etc is all just enforcing the idea that being conventionally unattractive is a moral failing. stop doing that. it’s an actively dangerous idea to spread
All the time and energy we spent socializing you in kindergarten and you STILL reverted back to, "I don't have to be nice to ugly people."
I’m not saying phases of the menstrual cycle aren’t real but I am saying their effects have been exaggerated by social media influencers with no medical backgrounds to the point of reinventing Female Hysteria. And all this for the purpose of selling “workout plans” and specialized elixirs and seeds and serums via Amazon storefront.
