LowKey Having A Panic Attack

A doll youtuber I watch has made a video about the history of Polly Pocket, and she's describing the plots of the dvd specials, one of which features an elderly woman named Ms. Throckmorton, and my reaction was

I love reading those 'Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls' esc books because it provides this lovely experience

I have a years of bitter resentment built up so I have a lot of starscream apologism meta kicking around in my head but I just keep thinking about how messed up tfp was. It was just so messed up. Do you remember how messed up that shit was

One of the things that bothers me about tfp starscream meta is it seems like a lot of fans would prefer to talk about him as if he exists in a vacuum separately from the narrative where he is being psychologically and violently physically abused, but you actually can not do that because it affects literally everything about his character including on a metatextual level.

PLEASE HELP! MY COUSIN SAID SHE WOULD GET ME ANY TADC MERCH I WANT IF I GET 500 LIKES ON THIS IN 10 DAYS!

Tama is boss

THE TRAINS HAVE CARTOON TAMAS ON THEM

Sad update everyone, Tama recently passed away… An estimated 3,000 people, including railway officials, attended Tama the cat’s funeral on Sunday, days after she died of heart failure aged 16. [x]

yep! her name is Nitama (essentially ”second tama” or “tama II”) and she served under Tama as an apprentice before being appointed her deputy

Nitama, already now a mature cat (born 2010), has a protege named Yontama (fourth Tama, b. 2016).  There is no information available for either the physical befellment or tragic self-disgrace which has removed Santama from contention.

“Sun-tama-tama” (a pun off of “Santama”, lit. “third Tama”) was a calico cat sent for training in Okayama. Sun-tama-tama was considered as a candidate for Tama’s successor, but the Okayama Public Relations representative who had been caring for Sun-tama-tama refused to give the cat up writing, “I will not let go of this child, she will stay in Okayama.” [25]

So, fun fact- the manga Noragami has an arc where the main character, Yato (a minor kami/God that is down on his luck but trying to make it big time) goes to a council/conference for all the Gods in Japan.

Just to update… yes, there is a Gotama (“Fifth Tama”) now, introduced in January of this year.

Sadly, Nitama died last December, so today Yontama stepped up as full stationmaster. Rokutama (“Sixth Tama”) was also introduced as a new trainee.

these are 50% off rn!!
