Yes! Yes!! My party is in power!! Time to hit the streets and do violence to my neighbors!! I'm assuming of course that no social, cultural, or political forces, let alone those caused by my own gleeful actions, will ever tip the balance of power away from us

Flashback to 2017, when some friends bought an XMas tree full of mantis eggs and once they were overrun by babies they let me adopt a pair. I named them Croker & Merrill.

They also got me a UK Transformers book. @ghostplanet.bsky.social @amerrill2.bsky.social

So there’s this 80s cartoon I like called Mighty Orbots. It’s pretty neat.

#MightyOrbots #mecha #robot #fanart #digitalart

The Orbots posing together:
Tor (red), Bort (blue), Bo (orange), Boo (yellow), Crunch (purple), and Ohno (pink)

The combined form of the Mighty Orbots flying through space.
