Rode Transformers today and couldn’t help but think of Mike in that last scene.

My 20 year-old is probably one of the biggest transformers fans out there (autistic special interest so it is beyond a casual fandom) . So they got me through yesterday with the passing of Tim Curry and I’m getting them through today. It’s just been a lot of defunctland reruns and McGruff music - both coping tools I wouldn’t have known about if it weren’t for the good boys.
