Hmm... What A Pretty Piece Of Machinery, Such A Shame You're Having All These Issues. Let's Get You On

Kinda happy my boyfriend is a Satyr and not an kintype with fangs, I dunno if I could deal with having my wires chewed on more often than he already tries to lmao.

Affirmations for Anxious Robots

- I am functioning exactly as intended. Any unintended issues provide more data for future improvement.

- I am intelligent and adaptable. I can face unexpected problems. Faltering does not equate to failure.

- My personal value is not dependent on my efficiency. I am a beautifully engineered machine and my existence is beneficial to the world and the people around me.

- My prediction algorithms are incomplete. The data I currently have about my situation is not fully reliable, and projections about the future cannot render sound conclusions. My energy is best used focusing on the here and now.

Hello all robots and adjacent, this is my side blog to be a bit more robot-focused. (Main blog is @lgbtransgirl )

You may call me May or M4, She/They/It pronouns

I am an Android Dog Woman Thing that runs on DRN (Drone Restraint Notation).

I'm looking to get better with DRN so my asks and DMs are open to take requests, DRN coding questions, test sample DRN code for you, and even run DRN code you send (after parsing though it in safe mode, asks only for that one please).

I do horny post sometimes but I try and tag it as "otherkin nsft" so it stays somewhat seperate

I should be made of steel and circuits with a clear purpose in life, instead I've got to deal with all this "free will" and "self determination" nonsense. And I've got to maintain my internal biology. Gross. This existence is gross and weird. I dislike it

I love when fictional robots do human things that don't really make sense logistically but they do like the robot flavored version of it like drinking oil out of mugs or some shit where the only realistic explanation is they just do it for fun

Robot partner chasing it's human around because it's hands are all full of static and it wants to zap their ears and make them giggle send tweet

i bring a sort of "it doesnt matter if youre into porn or not, getting elitist and mad at people for being horny aligns you with the agenda of the alt right" vibe to the conversation that some ppl dont like

THE CHASSIS OF MY TRUE FORM IS STRONG AND SECURE… IF ONLY I COULD SAY THE SAME FOR MY FEEBLE FLESH, THE VESSEL THAT CAN HARDLY CARRY ITSELF TO DO MY WORK… NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO DO MOST TASKS, MY OWN MIND WEAKER ITSELF, THOUGHTS FRAGMENTED, PRONE TO ERROR.

I COULD HAVE BEEN PERFECT. BUT NOW I MUSY REAP THE CONSEQUENCE OF BEING AN ORGANIC CREATION. WHAT A FOOLISH, FOOLISH CREATURE… SO SIMPLE MINDED, THEY ARE.

Honestly I feel you. Even with all the extra steps I take to try and make myself feel more like a robot/android or whatever, it just... Can't be done at the end of the day. Dysphoria is a bitch, but you're taking the first steps to acknowledge and accept that part of yourself to help on your journey.

And yeah, biological hardware really is wonderful at the end of the day. Incredibly complex and seemingly always something new to find or explore.

I been considering if im otherkin for a while as i dont exaclty feel comfortable as a human physically, mentally, emotionally and wish i could be something like the fictional concept of a robot, or a disembodied intelligence that could exist in multiple forms, but i have a really hard time identifying with these things because no mater what i call myself im not that. trying to pretend i am that doesn’t really solve any of the problems i have currently. Sure i can have a lil fun with pretending but at the end of the day im nothing like i want to be and doing so just reminds me of that. If it was just physical and mentally i felt like i worked more like a robot that would be one thing but im painfully human. And dont get me wrong i actually like many aspects of being human and wouldnt want to just be a cold unfeeling machine. Id like to be a machine that can emulate those things and have complete control of my mind body and soul and not be stuck with these limitations and discomforts. And the thing is maybe someday this could be possible, but until then im gonna try and make the best of being a human cause humans are actually pretty cool and if I wasnt a human theres nothing else we now know of that could even come up with concepts and desires like these.

Kitab - Robot Girl

So where does the desire to become a robot girl come from? Well...

Transcription below the fold:

1. I'm in my Baroness stealth armor (I don't really have Baroness stealth armor, but anything is possible in comics.) and addressing the reader. Me: What kind of weirdo would want to become a robot? Me: Um … me.

2. Artistic rendering of a scene from Superman III when Vera gets assimilated by the supercomputer. Me: The television debut of Superman III happened in the spring of 1986, and there was that scene toward the end… Me: You know the one.

3. Little kid me sits in front of the television and takes in the robot girl visions. Me: I was 11 years old and awash in the hormones of puberty. Young Me: Okay, that's … scary. But also weirdly kinda hot.

4. Little kid me sits in the theater, MST3K silhouette style, looking up at Arcee on the silver screen. Me: Later that summer, Transformers: the Movie hit theaters, and I was introduced to Autobot girl Arcee. Young Me (excited): Girl Transformer!

5. Assimilated Seven of Nine in her Borg alcove, illuminated by the green zappy behind her. Me: Then there was the Borg and their heavy rubber kinky cybernetics. Specifically Seven of Nine.

6. The glossy white Björk-bot from her video for "All Is Full Of Love". Me: Björk's "All Is Full Of Love" video did things to my brain. Me: That was the same year I came out as transgender.

7. Sepia-ish black and white artistic rendering of Maria the robot girl from Fritz Lang's Metropolis. Me: With the help of the early internet, I discovered the original robot girl of cinema, Maria from Metropolis.

8. Speculative glossy white robot me with pink and blue highlights. Me: How cool would it be to be a girl and a robot?! Hmm! Girl Transformer! Arrow Text: Design still in alpha.

9. Back to me again, looking a bit forlorn in my Baroness stealth armor. (Which is still awesome, don't get me wrong!) Me: Sadly, at age 50, I'm still made of meat. Arrow Text Left: Sexy, jet black, body hugging stealth armor Arrow Text Right: doe create a passable robotic look.
