Mothra

I would say Winker nor Winkor but English isn't my first language so let's see what the consensus is for this matter.

Sentient, autonomous, giant fighter mechas.

So far the most popular franchise with this is Transformers, but most of their media is mediocre at best. There are some exceptions like a few of the comics and some of the series which are really good, but overall as a franchise they are lacking unfortunately. I really love the trope though.

The other franchise with this would be Bionicle but I can't say I know much about it.

There are plenty of mechas out there, but they don't tick all the boxes for this trope. Most are either non sentient or require a human pilot to be active. And those which are sentient and autonomous are rarely fighters.

So if you know of any - please let me know. Thanks.

Ah yes so alpha male. And this is on top of all the money he made

That's neat. It doesn't even feel like from the 50s. Whoever the illustrator was, they really had their own voice

Am I saying something offensive or ridiculously stupid? Just wondering because of the downvotes.

Answering to you: yes, and more to my point. It's not just one thing you need to fix, it's the whole system. And by cost of living I didn't mean just rent. I meant everything, food, transport, utilities etc. I'll just do my best while I can.

Yes and no, on one side you are right and consumerism in our culture is to blame. But on the other hand, the costs of living today in many parts of the world would make this kind of localised crafts just impossible. Workers wouldn't earn enough and the products would be prohibitively expensive.

I'd raise my hand for furniture, clothing, and anything ceramics. Homewares and clothing basically. This already exists in one way or another, but I believe it would be amazing if more people could make a living actually designing and making these things, the products would be of better quality than the mass produced ones, and they would be unique.

Unfortunately it's too expensive to become the norm in reality

I just saw it now. I agree it doesn't look like AI, but I also can't recognize her face either.

Is she in a medical school morgue? If so that's some twisted sense of humor right there.

AI, right?

I get it, it's not AI, at the moment of posting I had not yet seen the image
