Had to say goodbye to my floofy friend of 12 years, Bob. She was our sweet girl and our little weirdo and she will be missed terribly.

Happy to have seen Transformers: The Movie in theaters again. Though I don't remember the first time since I wasn't quite 2 yet. Shout out to the guy next to me who downed no less than 5 chicken sandwiches during the movie.

I had this idea from reading the elizabeth holmes mouse post and then I couldn't do anything else until i painted the idea to completion

It is a cartoon mouse, like Jerry from Tom and Jerry, shaped like a wedge of cheese presumably because it has eaten a wedge of cheese. The mouse has Elizabeth Holmes' face. The mouse is saying "Why would I deceive you? There's no reason for me to do that."

Nathan Fielder, looking into a fridge where the mouse has eaten a cheese, says skeptically "Okay. Alright."

An action figure of a pink-haired girl (Snail Shell's Aileen) wearing a white t-shirt, grey skirt & red glasses sits on a couch. A black cat sits next to her while beer bottles and a tv remote are scattered on the couch. She hold the controller to an AV Famicom which is sitting on the table in front of her along with an empty bowl, more beer bottles and several Famicom cartridges in various colors. The scene is lit with the glow of a television in a dark room.

Beer bottles, a tv remote and a Sega Game Gear are scattered on the couch.

“Be Strong enough to be gentle.” Peter Cullen tells the story of how his brother inspired the voice he would use to play Optimus Prime. It’s a simple yet poignant quote that sums up why Optimus and Peter are so beloved. Til All Are One. 💔

Heartbroken to hear about the passing of the legendary Peter Cullen. Its nearly impossible to overstate what transformers meant to me as a kid. I had a pretty crap childhood and one of the things that bought me just a glimmer of joy was transformers.

Contemplating bringing the theater program for End of Evangelion tonight for the full experience. Pleasantly surprised that the showing sold out at my theater. Wondering how the audience will be.

The cover for the movie program for "End of Evangelion." Dubbed "The Red Cross Book" in the West, this thing achieved mythical status in the early fandom as it contained a glossary of terms that fueled fan-theories for years.

Had entirely too much free time and made a collage of all my Japanese movie programs (nearly 300). Wondering how badly Bluesky's compression will kill it. #moviesky #filmsky

A collage of nearly 300 Japanese movie programs in relative size to each other. "The Matrix" is particularly large at 10.2" x 14.3" (25.5 cm x 36.5 cm). "Cecil B. Demented" is the smallest at 5.4" x 4.8" (13.5 cm x 12 cm)
