Okay, how is it we're not getting a sequel to Transformers One, one of the best Transformers movies out there, but we're getting a 4th season to Transformers EarthSpark, one of the worst Transformers series out there?
          	
          	(Yes, I know in the past, I've said Transformers EarthSpark was great, but that was when we only had 12 episodes, not a shit second season and a terrible third one)

I feel half of Wattpad's user base is now just bots. Apart from two comments on the last chapter regarding my fanfic, have been about these comic artists scams/bots.
          
          One look at my profile and you'll see I am an artist. If I want something done as a comic, I can legitimately "do it myself".
          
          I've honestly given up on reporting these accounts as Wattpad has done nothing about them in the past. Now I'm just blocking them and deleting the comments.
          
          What to look out for:
          The initial comment will talk about the character, but in a way it feels like they pulled it from ChatGPT or Gemini. And they'll usually have a question. Some will be how do 'you' (as the author) this certain characters will react or evolve. Smarter bots/scammers ask about how you get ideas.
          
          The nail in the coffin is they'll always ask to do visual ideas, ask for your Discord, Insta or even email.
          
          They also, always seem to follow you.
          
          On their accounts, it'll be a freshly made account, usually in the last few days or weeks. Their bio will have nothing or a definitely AI generated summary about being an artist. And their profile pic will be a basic Wattpad-given one or an AI art image.
          
          Do not play into these bots/scams. The least they'll do is make you pay for an image they generated through AI, not one they created themselves. The worst is they'll hack into your accounts and steal personal information.

@JaymanG12 the thing is though, that kinda shit happens everywhere. And just because they can’t do it the PMs anymore, doesn’t really stop them from doing it in comments or on the minor’s dashboard. It’ll stop the more hesitant ones, but not the ones who just don’t care.

@PhantomTheDragoness yeah, I did understand why they removed PM's though, the fact that there were just predators on Wattpad talking to minors was definitely a shock to the system

@JaymanG12 it's so dead compared to just a few years ago. A part of that definitely comes from the PMs being removed I reckon. Honestly, everything about Wattpad went downhill the second they were bought by the same company that owns Webtoons.

Finally got around to watching KPop Demon Hunters, and I can see what the hype is about. It is a damn good film.
          
          There's quite a bit I'd like to say about the film, especially what I like, but as they almost all involve spoilers, I'm gonna have to stay quiet for now.
          
          Was it a film I expected to enjoy? Actually, no. When I watched the trailer, I was quite worried.
          
          Is it going to be something I'm gonna obsess over? Likely not, so don't expect any fanfics or OneShots from this account. 
          
          Did I enjoy the film? 100%. The things I was worried about, like the cartoonish expressions on semi-real faces (like what I see often in anime), the potential overuse of songs, was something I ended up enjoying along with the plot. 
          
          Overall, I do suggest watching it if you haven't already. Sony has yet again done a great job with an animated film.

Might begin posting the Lego Monkie Kid fanfic this weekend.
          
          The cover isn’t finished, but it’s at a stage that it looks really close to finishing. Just a bit of lighting, effects, that kind of stuff.
          
          But the story itself, I am really proud of so far. I’ll explain a bit more in the author’s note of the fanfic. And honestly, if you could check it out when it’s released, I would much appreciate it. 
          
          And if you haven’t watched Lego Monkie Kid yet, please go check it out. It’s an amazing series, beautifully animated with some of the best characters and character arcs. It deserves so much more attention.

Most underrated "found family" in fiction, in my opinion:
          
          Sun Wukong, Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing, and The White Dragon Horse. It's the most unusual crew and yet they achieve greatness together.

Ao Lie is the White Dragon Horse, just for some reason wiki was not showing his name and linked to someone else, so I was doubting my knowledge of Journey To The West.

Today I spent working out my OC's family/background for the LMK fanfic, and wow. She may be the most heartbreaking, yet realistic character I have ever made.
          
          To give you a glimpse, here's a couple songs that just speak her and her life. All are by The Crane Wives:
          The Moon Will Sing (OC's theme for her journey)
          Allies or Enemies (OC's strained relationship with Mei)
          Never Love An Anchor (OC's relationship with her family)
