Stardrive is the saddest woobie to ever grace Transformers media and I want to protect her so badly. Nobody has ever loved her, and she’s barely been shown respect or recognized as a person. I reread the whole mini today and I remembered she was very sad but the depths of sadness she experiences still got me. And she’s only five years old!! I wanna see her school days and her adventures before meeting Prowl. I want her to show up in another continuity. She deserves the world!
A mark on your forehead identifies the god you must worship to stay alive, usually by joining its local church or temple. Your mark is unknown, meaning an old, forgotten god sponsored you. To survive, you must either find an old temple to worship at, or do the arduous task of building a new one
I love the tf fandom and everyone in it so fucking much I can’t fucking stand it. If there was ever a solid argument for trapping yourself in a flesh prison to slowly die over the next 100 years, it’s being able to exist on the same planet as you people.
Thank you for being alive you brilliant insane assholes
Good news: Prodigy season 2 was confirmed November 2021 and will also have 20 episodes! It will release later in 2023 and production is already underway.
So Star Trek Prodigy is an absolutely excellent show full of heart, wonderful storytelling, endearing characters, beauitful art and music, and a great balance of episodic and overarching storytelling that many of us have wanted Star Trek to find! Also there are some fun throwbacks that feel mostly purposeful and thought out and not too gratuitous! Lovely season 1, highy recommend to any Trek fan and hoping there will be a season 2!

The third photo from top is the Cave of the Crystals in the Naica mine. It's very hot and humid in there, so it's hard to go spelunking. But those same conditions are great for crystal formation!
