K it’s not their worst post, but it’s still not free of their bizarre entitled Gee-Wunner “Elita-1 can’t deviate a millimeter from her flawless 80s self! (their crack tradwife self-insert fanfiction)”

Skybound spoilers ///

The nicest thing I can say about Cliffjumper & Elita’s dynamic here is that it’s kinda giving ADHD flunkee living under a divorced single immigrant mommy’s roof lol

TOMORROW IS ELITA-1's BIRTHDAY... I doubt I'll have time to draw anything for her 😔

US imperialism & suicide CW ///

yea I wish Elita-1 had directed that planet-sucking ray squarely over the US lol

Skybound Elita may have made my job as Elita One’s Yuri Soldier much more challenging than I’d ever anticipated, but I’ll serve my pink revolutionary icon no matter what <3

so I appreciate that the current-running G1 retelling comic finally went, “wait, isn’t it really fucked-up how Elita-1 was left to lead a struggling cause on a dying planet for millennia?”. Unfortunately, both the comic & fandom demonize her for prioritizing her own home over a random-ass planet 🫠

As messed-up as it is that Optimus effectively ghosted his wife for 4 million years, she was more of the ep writer’s OC than anything, so she wasn’t intended to be a recurring character 😔
(this is highlighted by how her first piece of merch was a Japan-exclusive garage kit made a decade later 🥲)

Ok, so — in the OG 80s lore, the Autobots ended up on Earth after the Decepticons crashed their Ark, leaving them in hibernation for millennia. But one ep of the cartoon reveals the Autobots had a co-leader, Elita-1, who fought to keep their antifascist resistance alive on their home planet

maybe I’m just a bitter Elita stan, but every time Optimus in Skybound lamented how long his war is & how much he’s lost, I’m just… bitch you took a really long nappy while your wife was fighting for her life 😭

(Violence CW) DWJ might’ve been inspired by Nausicaa, except her turning point is when she kills soldiers invading her nation. Her mentor stops her kinda like OP did with Arcee, except it's to prevent conflict with the fantasy IDF, not to proselytize 💀 She then makes her OWN choice to not kill
October 28, 2025 at 6:07 AM
Yea 😭 tbh her arc about “losing control to rage” fell flat for me when the supposed consequences of it aren’t even her fault? I wish I could find the scene when OP reassures her touching, but Shockwave got the upper hand because OP distracted her by asking her to practice mindfulness in a warzone 🤦🏾‍♀️

IMO Optimus’s pacifist ideology feels like a vague, shitty attempt at emulating Ghibli MCs like Nausicaa & Ashitaka - like Arcee protecting Skyward feels inspired by how Nausicaa absorbs pain to diffuse violence, except Nausicaa doesn’t try to force her no-kill rule on her followers like OP does 😔

I know I’ve been complaining alot abt the only ‘Merican comic I read, but it has given me a new appreciation for the war media I do like…

anyways, shoutout to OOMFIES’ gay indigenous comics about the importance of standing up to fight oppression 🫡

DWJ’s art has had me reflecting on cozy game discourse (& its limits as critique)

he’s the first Western artist I’ve seen draw inspiration from Ghibli’s violence & body horror, but IMHO his engagement with its war themes isn't that much deeper than the cozy ga- *gets shot by multiple firing squads*

My first ever look at G1 Optimus was at age 7, when I walked in our living room to see my family watching him on his death bed. My dad remarked, “watch this, he’s gonna transform into a coffin!”. When he rusted into a desiccated corpse instead, I was utterly disgusted.

one of these days I’ll use my ADHD powers to thorougly debunk the Elita-1 tradwives’ “modern Hasbro is sullying Gee Wun Elita's femininity" to out-stan them if nothing else

(I mean it’s not that hard to piece together that 80s Hasbro really hated female Transformers 🤡)

OpLita using eachother as vehicles 🥺💖💖💖
October 23, 2025 at 5:07 AM
almost caught up on Cyberworld, & like… I know this is a show for toddlers, but I needed something with 2 braincells in it to cheer me up lol. also I’m just happy to see Elita-1 get to DO stuff and be with Optimus 🥲

I know I can’t feasibly expect the average US citizen to understand that the US military are global cops overnight, much less care.

But saying I should suck them off for doing the bare minimum about 🧊when the Navy is killing Latin Americans rn is uh 🫠🫠🫠
October 22, 2025 at 5:33 PM
I’m not gonna pretend to know how cartoon writing rooms work, but seeing someone go “Transformers can be saved by hiring writers to write better in spite of executive bullshit!” is so funny. yea I'm sure Hasbro has never thought of that

as if I didn’t need to tamper my Skybound Transformers expectations further, Kirkman is basically a lib Z*onist 🤡

rough transcript of his both-siding ass response to a Hollywood actress getting cancelled for *checks notes* being openly anti-gen0cide!

While he did sorta side with OP here, IMO this reads more like him giving a tough love motivational speech to make the best of a situation he really does hate - esp considering that his core bio trait is being talkative to avoid thinking about his trauma
