Aww, thanks!

Developers trying to gain access to a corrupted archive of game files:

They found what looked like a tape backup, but it turned out to be Laserbeak in disguise. (He was part of a deep cover mission to make Starscream look like an idiot...)

Maybe they ‘lost’ them to avoid a repeat of the whole Multi-World fiasco XD https://screenrant.com/transformers-optimus-prime-killed-himself-video-game/

Isn’t that the actual plot to the first live-action Transformers film?

Since 2013? So I guess you won’t be covering the classic Hulk show.

My personal high point was TF Animated — although the recent EarthSpark (though obviously pitched younger) is doing some very interesting things. (G1 history as unreliable Autobot propaganda? Megatron as a reformed ally? It’s the weirdest Transformers I’ve seen in a while, and I’m at least intrigued enough to join in…

Elon: “Tesla employees who have time for exercise are clearly not working hard enough, and will be immediately terminated.”

Music-wise? I’ve been revisiting Eddie Horst’s Love Theme to Perfect Hair Forever — one of the most beautiful, melancholy pieces of absolute raving gibberish I’ve ever had the pleasure of listening to.

Christopher Nolan apparently considers Michael Bay a great filmmaker. I guess this tracks...

I’d have a fraught relationship with my parents if they had named me ‘Tatum’. (I didn’t realize it could be used for women either. I guess Channing Tatum is a little like Thomas Jane...)

This movie is so goddamn good. It’s close to perfect.

Stone circles — the original roundabouts.

Either that, or the aging is somehow related to the fact that Star Platinum CENSORED CENSORED CENSORED CENSORED

If there’s one thing as irritating and inessential as Disney remakes, it’s YouTube essays. (Say what you will about the ‘angry critic’ style of video that was popular in the 10s, at least they weren’t this smug...)

Maybe he was tired of getting hit in the head by loose change...
