Captain's Log: 4562.5

Cybertron has not yet recognized the laws of the UFP, this diplomatic mission is still of great significance. We met a race called Transformers. They are silicon-based creatures and can transform their bodies into another form at will. At present, we don't know much about this race, but we will arrange a meeting and dinner tonight to show our friendship.

I feel like we've lost something linguistically with the rise of professional subtitles for everything because they just adapt jokes and idioms into their nearest English equivalent and lose cultural context. I miss watching anime in 2002 with subs by some guy who was just really passionate about japanese and would fill half the screen with an in-depth breakdown of why a pun works. I'm serious I want that again.

One of the PCs from our Star Wars campaign and the NPC child we adopted. The player commissioned this from me back in December when the party was attending a gala in-game, and with one thing and another, I’ve finally been able to finish it.

Every queer ship playlist should include:

  • an early 2000's rock ballad
  • a classic emo song
  • a breakup song
  • a song about being saved
  • an excessively cheery bop
  • a Hozier song
  • and the song that started it all

(Put yours in the tags)

Ramshackle demanded I do this with my 9.5-hr Megastar playlist and there's too many to put in the tags so.

Hozier Song:

I'll be honest, I actually don't have one of these. ^^;

The Song That Started It All:

I am wracking my brain to remember which one this is... Probably something by Halsey?

I think it was "Is There Somewhere" by Halsey. My early Megastar shipping thoughts were very strongly down the line of Megatron being more interested in Optimus than Starscream and Starscream being very bitter and piney about it.

quick psa: if you're in northern california right now, we have a big storm coming. i study atmospheric rivers and for reference this is what they usually look like:

a storm like that will bring us most of the rain we get in a year. that storm in particular caused numerous road closures, landslides, floods, and evacuations. it was massive and it was damaging.

however, this is what this storm looks like:

hey we added two new levels to the scale! i usually never see these above 1200 (the measure is vapor transport in kg per meter integrated with time and depth.) and if you look closely you'll see that the date at the top is the prediction for five days from now, and it's going to rain for most of the days in between, so if you don't have a plan for loss of power and flooding and you live in northern california, you should get one. anyway, posting this in the time honored tradition of sharing news on tumblr faster than i see it on actual news websites. the sky isn't falling, but i would at least get some candles and non perishable food. maybe fill up some water jugs in case something wonky happens. tell friends and family what's going on before power goes out and you and a hundred thousand other people are trying to use the same cell tower at once, etc. stay safe out there!

Okay so like I saw this the first time I watched Earthspark but didn't actually read what it said, so I thought I was just overthinking it but this poster here on Robby's wall:

That says "My Villain University" in mirror imaged Japanese.

Love the idea that the universe where Megs is one of "the good guys" also apparently has the Shattered Glass version of My Hero Academia.
