Can we talk about this Rescue Bots episode (Spellbound) because I need to appreciate how TERRIFYING it is??? Especially considering it's cannon in the Aligned Universe. This is some A+ horror.

Like damn, some of Griffin Rock's technology is more powerful than even the Decepticon's tech.

Can you IMAGINE if those creepy mind-control cell phones were used in TFP?

Legit mind control that effects humans AND Cybertronians?

And it's SO UNSETTLINGLY subtle, too. The victim's voices sound like their normal selves but just SLIGHTLY off. *shutter* The voice actors did such a good job.

Just IMAGINE that in Prime.

I feel like Optimus would probably be immune (because the Matrix of Leadership is goated) but can you imagine the Jasper Trio getting mind-controlled, and all their guardians + Ratchet know SOMETHING is off, but not what? Then, slowly, the mind control spreads to the Bots? Or vice versa, the Bots go first, and the humans are like: "Something's up with my guardian."

Kinda wild that Invasion of the Body Snatchers shit 100% exists in TFP's world. Felt like I needed to acknowledge that.

Is this gonna be my next TFP headcanons post? Feeling inspired.🤔

I actually think this Dark Knights of Steel twist-reveal with Alfred as martian manhunter was a really fascinating one (I genuinely loved it).

An Elseworlds continuity which really took advantage of being able to take different interpretations of a character, by the writer of the Nightwing series where the presence of Alfred is felt throughout, despite his pre-series death

Here we have him as the last survivor of a genocide, who lost absolutely everything. Felt he failed in the worst possible way, as his fatally wounded child died in his arms - unable to even offer him any comfort, with both being telepaths.

He flees a dead world. Gets to try again. Martha and Thomas Wayne know what he is, but conceal the secret. Have him as one of their most trusted retainers, friends.

He gets to try again.

A smile on his face, he gets to see another boy grow.

Even as Martha and Thomas are murdered, he stays with their son, looking after him no matter what. Having faith in him. Loving him. To the point where a man who had his adored son brutally murdered in the dark, able to do nothing but watch him die, looks at this orphaned alien child and says -

-as he holds the lasso of truth.

It adds an additional, really interesting factor to the paternal relationship he has with Bruce in this particular setting. I wish we got to see more of it. Perhaps if they ever do more "Tales of the Kingdom", we may get to see it in a prologue manner.

I haven't heared the door knobs and fascism thing before, can you elaborate?

gladly! i was referencing one of the aphorisms by Theodor W. Adorno, Do Not Knock, one of my favourite philosophical texts, certainly top 5.

I would summarise it for you, but it's quite a short text and i am not embarrassing myself by trying to summarise Adorno, so I have transcribed it for you under the cut:

60. Do Not Knock

Technology is making gestures precise and brutal, and with them men. It expels from movements all hesitation, deliberation, civility. It subjects them to the implacable, as it were ahistorical demands of objects, Thus the ability is lost, for example, to close a door quietly and discreetly, yet firmly. Those of cars and refrigerators have to be slammed, others have the tendency to snap shut by themselves, imposing on those entering the bad manners of not looking behind them, not shielding the interior of the house which receives them. The new human type cannot be properly understood without awareness of what the is continuously exposed to from the world of things about him, even in his most secret innervations.

What does it mean for the subject that there are no more casements windows to open, but only sliding frames to shove, not gentle latches but turnable handles, no forecourt, no doorstep before the street, no wall around the garden? And which diver is not tempted, merely but the power of his engine, to wipe out the vermin of the street pedestrians, children and cyclists? The movements machines demand of their users already have the violent, hard-hitting, unresting jerkiness of Fascist maltreatment.

Not least to blame for the withering of experience is the fact that things, under the law of pure functionality, assume a form that limits contact with them to mere operation, and tolerates no surplus, either in freedom of conduct or in autonomy of things, which would survive as the core of experience, because it is not consumed by the moment of action.

Some highlights of my YTP which I love so dearly lol <3

[moeblob]

I needed some brainless gameplay so I picked up 3H again and continued my weird "gotta collect a ref for all of the students as dancers on my own instead of using google" and I really, REALLY missed Dancernand. My son is still probably one of my favorite dancers to have.

Also I still like letting him obliterate enemies with a hammer. It's really fun.

ALSO, though he isn't a dancer in my Church run, I think it's funny he loves to crit so much + he has the Fraldarius crest item so that tacks on another 15 damage on activation (during crits) so his numbers go big. I love him.

i love taking pictures and planning shoots, that's one of the reasons why this fic is so special to me! i understand what oscar is doing here, and it's close to me. i especially like the way nature is described here. it reminds me of a place in my hometown that i have good memories of!

Heart Eyes and Laughter Lines by amarynas

first of all, this fic has a veryy cool idea! i generally like to read/watch about traveling by car! and i really liked the descriptions of nature. landoscar here are such cute sillies😭  but i warn you, after reading it, i had a very persistent feeling of loneliness haha…

«I think we’ve been getting on well, the whole year was to get to know each other better and better, but from the beginning of the year it always works well together, I think, in terms of trying to help the team, understand what we want from the car. I think we’ve always given very similar feedback to what we want, so that aspect has been really good, and I think just even having him as a teammate [is really good], like you said, he's got a lot of experience at a young age, I’d like to point out: older than me *chuckles*, but still very young (I always remind him of that too). It’s been nice having him as a teammate, as a reference, you know, I think he definitely established himself over the last five years as one of the top drivers in Formula One, so to be able to see how he drives, see how he works with the team, it’s been very useful for me as well». «We get along well, we work together well, and yeah: an exciting teammate pairing, I think, for years to come».

Thoughts on the Grian Rescue Squad's preferred pajamas?

(Or something equally light-hearted and silly? there is Drama in Youtube comments that I really should be trying to avoid instead of arguing with people but it's hard when trolls are pretending to be white knights and ... yeah. Light-hearted/silly headcanons about the Rescue Squad would be good. XD)

A few silly pajama headcanons for you coming right up!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

First of all im gonna be so fr here i think Scar sleeps in a victorian-era nightshirt. Cap and all. Like one of these things:

but a bit more colourful and stylish 😂😂😂😂 the nightcap is why his hair always looks a little silly first thing in the morning

Mumbo, i think, tends to sleep in longjohns-- big fan of the image of him dressed from head to toe in plaid tbh, or a silly pattern like hearts or clouds or sheep. I think his pajamas are full of whimsy<3

Xisuma has currently been sleeping in his armor with the helmet on not necessarily bc thats his norm but bc hes so tired he just keeps conking out where he is before he can changed 😭😭😭😭 when he does properly climb into bed though i think hes more of a simple boxers guy

Tango i think tends to wear a flowy robe that looks INCREDIBLY expensive and a little scarily like his dungeon master robes (theyre actually the same thing he was literally in his pajamas 24/7 in that hole) but underneath those he strikes me as a boxers guy too, just with a different taste in patterns

Pearl sleeps fully in the nude and thats the entire reason why theres a curtain separating her bed from the rest of the Rescue Squads' 🫡🫡🫡👍👍👍

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST

IN CASE YOU ARE NOT BRAZILIAN THEY CHOSE “WAVE - TOM JOBIM” TO BE THE END CREDIT’S SONG OF TODAY’S EPISODE

I AM HOLLOWING AT THE MOON

NOT ONLY BECAUSE IT’S ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE SONG BUT BECAUSE OF THE LYRICS

THE LAST THINGS WE HEAR ARE MR MILKSHAKE SAYING “MAY KIER’S MERCY FOLLOW YOU INTO ETERNAL DARKNESS” AND THE SONG STARTS WITH “SO CLOSE YOUR EYES FOR THAT’S A LOVELY WAY TO BE

AWARE OF THINGS YOUR HEART ALONE WAS MEANT TO SEE

THE FUNDAMENTAL LONELINESS GOES WHENEVER TWO CAN DREAM A DREAM TOGETHER”

ALL THE SUICIDAL TENDENCIES THAT IRV WAS SHOWING???? THE WAY HE ACCEPTED HIS TOTAL NON EXISTENCE AND DESTRUCTION???

THE CREEPY HALLWAY PAINTINGS HIS OUTIE WAS MAKING?? THE SONG ALSO SAYS

“YOU CANT DENY

DONT FIGHT THE MOON THE STARTS ARE ABOVE AND DONT FIGHT ME - WHEN I SAW YOU THE FIRST TIME WAS HALF PAST THREE

WHEN YOUR EYES MET MINE IT WAS ETERNITY

BY NOW WE KNOW THE WAVE IS ON ITS WAY TO BE”

THIS IS DIABOLICAL

IM GONNA PASS THE FUCK OUT.
