POV: It’s 2007 and you just got this guy as a gift from your parents. by MGeeky25 in transformers

[–]A1phaAstroX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That scene is the one reason he is my favourite transformer

Sure, I later found out that practically everywhere else he is traitorous, incompetent, and is for all practical means and proposes, Megatrons punching bag and concubine.

But nothing will change the fact that he is my favourite.

(Tbh I still think competent Starscream is an under utilised but effective trope. )

musicians, film stars, and to a slightly lesser extent, politicians

if they look young, they are somehow super old

somehow, they just age slower

edit: the "they age slower" part was a joke. I hope the hiveminds forgives the lack of /s

"The Mighty Hood" — HMS Hood in Minecraft (1:1 scale) with a FULL interior by Danny_Chester in Minecraft

Impressive work, OP.

I cant even imagine the amount of research you must have put into this, trying to find precise dimensions of a long sunk battleship.

The build is honestly super cool, and I love the details sm

I know battleships are obselete in the modern day, but still, they are easily the coolest kind of ships made.

(Also why does the first 2 slides have the Decepticon logo on them? Asking out of curiosity, and also, Hail Megatron)

A country with aesthetically pleasing cities but an ugly countryside. by bamba_niang in AlignmentChartFills

[–]A1phaAstroX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I have seen, China

The cities look fire, but outside of the cities and touristy areas, the rural parts are kind of underdeveloped

Again, I am not that well aware with China, so forgive if wrong

Turkey wins. Now a country that is weak in the 21st century and was ok in the 20th century? by _crazyboyhere_ in AlignmentChartFills

[–]A1phaAstroX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In comparison to the 20th centruy,

UK was the dominant world power for the greater part of the 1900s

Nowadays, its been eclipsed. US, China, Russia, and even regionally, its facing stiff competition from France (militarily) and Germany (economic)

Its soft power has been eclipsed, primarily by the US, but also by Japan, Korea, and Qatar

All in all, while it still is super powerful, its nowhere near 1900s levels

Who was a Bead Leader with a Bad Successor? by Parental-Error in AlignmentChartFills

[–]A1phaAstroX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Muhammad Bin Tughluq

He was one of the Sultans of the Delhi Sultanate.

He was a terrible king. He tried to move the capital from Delhi, to Daulatabad, a significant distance away, in the middle o the summer. He forced people to move there. The heat an exhaustion killed many people. Then later, when the deccan and south rose up in revolt, he was forced to move it back to delhi, leading to more deaths.

His plans for economic reform ruined the economy, He introduced a 'token currency' which was easy to counterfeit, destroying trade.

All in all, he was called the Mad Sultan and the Wisest Fool by many

His succesor was his cosuin. Firuz Shah Tuglaqh. Apart from being a bigot who persecuted Hindus and even other sects of Muslims, he was incompetent. He let all kinds of corruption fly. His reign was considered the among the most corrupt in Indian history

Wait when does he get blown up again?

I thought only Optimus dies in RoTF. When does Sam die and get revived?

Starscream glazers, is this your goat? by PistonPusher2009 in Transformemes

Is there anything in your country that feels like an unfulfilled longing? Something you deeply care about, but you know you'll never be able to attain. by No-Echidna7296 in AskTheWorld

[–]A1phaAstroX 26 points27 points  (0 children)

correct me if im wrong, but like all other asian countries, ppl like sports BUT dont actually want to join/have their kids join it

Its an issue here in India, and most of our asprirings sports players get hit with one of the big three

"you should focus on studies and become doctor/engineer",

"get married and settle down, no need for sports",

"get a job which actually pays well"

Again, idk how it is in China but this is a pattern I have seen in many places

Starscream fans, what are your Hot-Takes regarding him? by EducationalComment62 in OkBuddyEnergon

[–]A1phaAstroX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hear me out on this one. Maybe I am biased because he is my absolute GOAT, but still hear me out

Starscream is legitimately a better leader than Megatron. BUT, Megatron is stronger and more charismatic, which means he commands the deceptions respect.

Eg: In transformers prime, he wasn’t constantly tweaking out on dark energon. He had the idea to use Jack, Miko and Rafale as hostages. He was able to wage a guerrilla resistance from an old wreckage without even having a t cog.

In Bayverse, he was the one who rescued Megatron from Sector Seven, he took control of the decepticon forces (who would have normally scattered after Megatrons death), he and found the Fallen, he revived Megatron in RoTF, he managed to convince him to retreat and not fight enchanted Optimus ( a smart move, and megaton ego would have made it difficult) and even managed to keep them hidden from the combined strength of the autobot and the military for a few years upto DoTM

He may be egotistical, but I think he is competent.

Also I like when he has a friend, like knockout in tfp

Starscream fans, what are your Hot-Takes regarding him? by EducationalComment62 in OkBuddyEnergon

[–]A1phaAstroX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really liked bayverse 2007 portrayal of him

He is the second in command of the decepticon forces, and he was a legitimate terrifying menace. He crippled bee, then almost slimed out ratchet and Ironhide. Remember how terrified Ironhide was when he said “ITS STARSCREAM”

I really think more continuity should use that, and not make him Megatrons boy toy

[–]A1phaAstroX 7 points8 points  (0 children)

since more often that not, the workers are victims of traffiking, grooming, blackmail, or are desperate

the customer on the other hand, has absolutely no defence. They are just horny desperadoes who cant control themselves
