Also, Kei's been having a really not great time lately with the old financials, so if you're a TF fan who wants to show your support, here's an easy way to do that

These might be good if you're kicking yourself for skipping out on Cyberverse.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

Tyrannosaurus rex lives closer in time to humans and smartphones than it does to the actual Jurassic Period.

Mammoths still roamed the Earth when the Great Pyramid of Giza was built and wouldn't go extinct for almost 500 years after the Great Pyramid was completed!

The snake does not like what it can see. Neither does Arthropleura. It is enough to put off even an Indricothere.

Back in 2020 when I worked at a supermarket I had a guy not wearing a mask get close to me, and when I kept my distance, he said, "It's not a big deal."

Arcee, Elita-One, Windblade, and Blackarachnia.

I'm sorry, I know these names mean nothing to you, you're not a Transformers fan.

I don't mind it so much. He's both an insect and an alien. Nothing about him suggests a chordate standard fo his eyes.

Though, now you mention it, that might be why the Omnitrix symbol covering Upgrade's and Nanomech's eyes in Omniverse might be why I don't like that change to their designs

That could be the case. I genuinely believed no one cared about me for a long time (luckily I wasn't convinced it was because I'm a man), then my partner convinced me to see a therapist and sure enough I was diagnosed with depression.

I am not abandoning people because weakass candidates say supporting them costs votes.

Fuck that noise.

I don't think I've seen the whole episode but I remember catching this bit of it.

I remember having the XLR8/Four Arms and I think Upgrade/Stinkfly. No clue what became of them.

DOTM Deluxe Bumblebee. Objectively, Battle Blade Bumblebee is better, but the DOTM figure is so much fun to mess around with.

Prepping some files for print, and I came across this old fave from 2018! It started of as a commission (thanks @yukonshaun.bsky.social!) and then @dcjosh.bsky.social grafted some gorgeous colours onto it, so it became a nice little narrative piece of Verity Carlo's adventures with robots!
