Happy Twin Peaks day!

Coda infuriated me because "everyone dies horrifically, none of it matters, genocide is the correct response" is the exact opposite of Star Trek. It wasn't a tribute, it was a slap in the face. It was a particularly bloody Warhammer 40K pastiche featuring fan-favourite Star Trek characters...

My headcanon is that Tasha and Thaddeus are the same person (the timeline almost adds up, and he could easily have transitioned between ages 6 and 18). (I'm plotting out a fanfic of what Picard would look like in the Relaunch timeline [ignoring Coda because it was horrible], where René is...

I'm still mildly annoyed that ho one ever thought to rebrand him as Slæg. It's the Old English verb for "to kill" --from which we get the modern words "slay" and "slake" (as in to slake one's thirst) Perfect name for a Dinobot.

(I'm amused by how swoop's head seems to be tilted quizzically, like he's wondering how he got here.)

Tow-Line has the advantage of being a one-off character with a relatively straightforward transformation. All the other RiD Autobots had interconnected play patterns (you can't homage RiD Magnus without RiD Optimus, and if you make one of the Car Bros you're still on the hook for the other two)...

Happy Birthday to the boss monkey!

We've even had other Porsches. Maybe this guy could be movieverse Rabbicrater.

Gotta say, that steamshovel-as-wings transformation is brilliant and now I want to see Transformer use it.

I was going to say something clever, but looking it up, stegosaur fossils have been found in North America, Europe, Africa, India, and China, so yeah. Odds are they were everywhere.

This seems like the place to archive this:

As I've said, replicators are basically fast food; every Big Mac is exactly the same, and tastes "good enough" to satisfy most people. Replicators are basically output devices like monitors, speakers, or printers --it's a matter of resolution. I'd imagine that if you-reading-this tried to...

I mean, at least they stopped hiring the sasquatch they had back in the early 2000s.

I feel like the only real competition for "best DC show" are Swamp Thing and Legends of Tomorrow, with Doom Patrol firmly in the middle, stylistically (LoT is zany but extremely low-budget, while ST had higher production values but was totally serious to the point of depression). Doom Patrol...

That's a non-issue though, because cloaking (like any stealth technology) only matters until someone finds a way to penetrate it, at which point it becomes completely useless. And yeah, I take the Secret Hideout Era as its own separate universe, alongside the Abramsverse, STO, and the Relaunch...

Though note that, despite what Discovery thinks, they didn't have replicators in Kirk's time. Food was prepared in the galley and distributed through the food dispensers in the mess hall. Even the Enterprise-A still had a practical galley.

I really miss the era of non-screen movie figures. They were some of the best things to come out of the movies.

It probably wouldn't take much of a remold (just swapping her raptor head for one with a straighter beak) to turn RotB Airrazor into Filch.
