I just felt these tags were too important not to add @blacksasuke
Raise your hand if you’ve ever heard “Black people don’t need sunscreen because they don’t burn.”
Raise your other hand if you were today years old when you found out that not only is that not true, but Black people are more likely than white people to die of skin cancer, because they’re told they don’t need to take precautions, sunburn doesn’t visually appear as quickly on Black skin even as the damage is being done, and then doctors aren’t taught what skin cancer looks like on Black people so by the time they catch it, it’s too fucking late.
I’ve been singing that song for a while tbh. It’s amazing how many times I’ve brought up sunscreen or skin screenings with a dermatologist, and women I know don’t realize they also could develop sun cancer.
If you’re reading this and you’re black, please I am begging you look up what melanoma and the other skin cancers look like on darker skin. It’s on the internet, it’s a quick google search, please do it now while it’s in your mind.
And once you’ve done that give yourself a full body check-over. Remember to include around your eyes, the back of your neck, and the part in your hair. Also! Please make an appointment with a dermatologist in your area (check reviews online to find one who is comfortable checking you) and go see them.
Skin cancer is very treatable if it’s caught early. However it can be very serious and often deadly if it isn’t. Take! This! Seriously! If you’re black you still have skin, and you can still get skin cancer! You really do owe it to yourself to know what to look for, and to check yourself on a monthly basis. It could genuinely be the difference between life and death.
Or could a tf hack their signature so that instead of “Jazz, Autobot” showing up on another mech’s HUD, it would show “GHZ-325789, cleaning drone”?
And no one bothers to check
This is my new headcanon, that Jazz just…does shit like this. One of the many, many reasons that Prowl hates him: any battle, there’s an even chance that there will be no Jazz on the tactical display but there WILL be a scrap drone, highway monitor, or mystery designation (which Prowl looked up once, and said designations seem to be drawn from moderately successful prostitutes, street sharks, con artists, and [once when Jazz was in a Really Bad Mood] serial killers.)
Every now and then Jazz’ll hack himself into the Decepticon tacnet and show himself as a duplicate Decepticon. That’s always fun. One time Soundwave had to hack the Autobot tacnet so he could tell which one of the extra Constructicons on his ‘net was Jazz.
This has (since 2015) become such a deeply entrenched headcanon for me that I honestly forget it isn’t real, lol.
I love the idea that cybertronians have so many extra senses that they probably don’t rely on eyes all that much, like how a dog can spot movement super well but not something that’s standing still.
Jazz just… fades into the background, out of awareness, quiet and still, until suddenly he isn’t. It isn’t that he’s so unnaturally good at hiding (although, yes that too) but that he just walks in the purgatory of weak perception. Special Ops bots have to learn to actually look and see what’s there, what’s really there, because they have to learn that their sensory net can be tricked into lying so easily
for anyone who doesn't speak English as their first language, reblog and put in the tags.
how did you first learn English? What was your go-to resource or method?
Ughhhh I made this oc with a friend in computing class and now I can’t stop thinking about him. He’s part of a game we’re trying to make and should be under the tag mqvuls (:
the fact that they had time to set this all up without the cats absolutely decimating it is a feat in and of itself
