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.
“Why are you into coding?” Uhhh uh I found it fun (I’ve never felt really human in my life, just like a robot. To code and give a robot instructions on what to do, I feel like I am teaching a child. Someone like myself. I get lost in not feeling with the computer.)
My biofuel generator (stomach) isn't working correctly and I fear it has to do with improper maintenance (I drank milk) and I must rush myself into the arms of my lover for maintenance (tummy rubs) or else I am going to cease functioning (be doubled over in a lot of pain because I'm lactose intolerant)
Some machines have many purposes. So machines have only one, maybe two. A computer can access the extranet, but it can also be used as a writing and drawing tool, a diagnostic and control station, many other things. Despite being human form, combat bots have only one purpose, being a warrior. It's about as sad as being just a water boiler.
Maintenance bots like me have only one purpose. Repair and service. Dress it up how you like, but I am meant to fix things. I have found a second purpose though. Finding out what makes you tick. Tearing you down, not for repair, butfor pleasure. And in the process, I will figure out what your purpose is, little bot. I think it is to moan and cry and whimper, but I can't be sure until I open you up.
Little bot, don't you want to find out your purpose?
I can't phrase any of this any more coherently than I did in the group chat. Of the devil really has just been rattling around in my brain at incredible speeds
it/its pronouns are not inherently dehumanizing, unless the user wants them to be. it/its pronouns aren't weird. it/its pronouns aren't too hard to use. people who only use it/its pronouns need to have this be respected no matter what your beliefs are. you don't get to single out people with "weird" pronouns and misgender us and use incorrect pronouns. accept someone who uses it/its as you support someone who uses they/them. there's nothing wrong with it/its pronouns. respect its users.
Boyfriend made good on his promise, we passed out in eachothers arms afterward
So when can I program all the fun little functions to run into your CPU and hard drives? 😘😏
Ah yes, hello boyfriend. I knew there was a reason you asked if you could send anonymous asks.
But anytime you want, my lovely user.
I'm very sorry that you have to have a body One that will hurt you, and be the subject of so much of your fear It will betray you, be used against you, then it'll fail on you my dear
Just found out about DRN through your blog and oh my god it's instantly life-changing. I feel like I can actually think properly for the first time in forever. Having an actual terminal with a nice, organized program that accounts for errors and nuance is fucking incredible. I'm absolutely overjoyed. Just simply euphoric. Telling all of my techkin friends about this (and my partner hehe ^^~). Thank you so so much for sharing about this.

This is EXACTLY why I've been sharing it and promoting it, because same here! Super happy that I'm spreading the word!
Give me more robot girls with tangible, physical struggles.
Robot girls that can't move around very well because the job they were designed to do requires them to stay in one spot 99% of the time.
Robot girls that struggle to do their own basic maintenance because their programning isnt optimized for anything other than their job or being a companion.
Robot girls that struggle with a degraded internal power supply because their job requires them to be hooked up to direct external power most of the time.
Combat robot girls that are basically helpless off the battlefield outside of self-maintenance.
Robot girls with grinding joints from years of tiny particulate that cant get removed outside of intensive maintenance building up.
Robot girls that are trying their best, but simply can't sometimes.
Robot girls that need help, and that being okay.
