Just when it seemed the pornbots were gone, they came right back. I've had more yesterday and today than I've had in the past few weeks.
Here:
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!
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
It occurs to me that as much as “humans are the scary ones” fits sometimes, if you look at it another way, humans might seem like the absurdly friendly or curious ones.
I mean, who looked at an elephant, gigantic creature thoroughly capable of killing someone if it has to, and thought “I’m gonna ride on that thing!”?
And put a human near any canine predator and there’s a strong chance of said human yelling “PUPPY!” and initiating playful interaction with it.
And what about the people who look at whales, bigger than basically everything else, and decide “I’m gonna swim with our splashy danger friends!”
Heck, for all we know, humans might run into the scariest, toughest aliens out there and say “Heck with it. I’m gonna hug ‘em.”
“Why?!”
“I dunno. I gotta hug ‘em.”
And it’s like the first friendly interaction the species has had in forever so suddenly humanity has a bunch of big scary friends.
Ah...that sudden realisation that Earthspark could, despite being cute as heck, well turn out to be the darkest Transformers cartoon yet.
JUST SOME FAN THEORIES, BUUUT...

Megatron has be shadowplayed by Ghost, but doesn't realise it. In fact he probably thinks teaming up with the Autobots was his idea, but it wasn't.
Optimus not only knew about that, but he went along with it because he was desperate to end the war. I mean, it'd clearly gotten spectacularly nasty. Bee mentions starving bots, Soundwave being in such a bad way that one of his cassettes exploded when he tried to eject it. That's pretty damn grim, but who said only the Decepticons were effected like that. How many bots died, and what did Optimus really sacrifice to win the war?
OR
Both Megatron and Optimus have been shadowplayed and neither know it. Optimus as an attempt to control the Autobots and Megatron as an attempt to bring the Decepticons to heel. The latter didn't work, so they've resorted to capturing the Decepticons instead, with the intent of shadowplaying them all. Why? Potentially as a puppet army to use in defence against other Cybertronians...or just against them in general.
Starscream knows what's really going on, but when he tries to tell everyone nobody believes him. Because it's Starscream.
Anyone else think the arachnamechs look a bit like Quints? Just me?
Okay, the spacebridge is down, but there's no way the Autobots would just leave Optimus and the others there, surely? They have space travel tech, why haven't they sent a rescue party? Same with the Decepticons.
Oh, and my last fan theory? IF ANY CARTOON IS GOING TO GIVE US THE DJD THEN IT'S THIS ONE.
Whoever decided to have Bee doing what appears to be Cybertronian yoga in the background of this scene deserves everything good in this world I literally cannot thank you enough
Earthspark continues to amaze me on every level and so does this Bumblebee someone help me.
Mmpphh
-incoherent babbling-
How much love does the new Transformers show have?
Well, lets just say they included the animation errors in a frame redraw from the first Transformers intro.

Earthspark
(The animators even went above and beyond by not drawing Soundwave's insignia.)
