This is pretty rad - a 3D printed parts kit that turns the awkward original Transformers G1 Ironhide into something more closely resembling his animation models. Same seller has one for Ratchet, too. www.ebay.com/itm/20500556...

Calling Gene Hackman one of the all-time greats seems like such an understatement. Like most people my age, I first encountered him in Superman, but I quickly learned to enjoy him in everything and anything. Hero, villain, happy, sad, funny, terrifying, inspiring... he could do it all. RIP.

imagine doing this scene after already winning an Oscar for "The French Connection." that's Hackman to me

Happy Wednesday, you Wonderful Weirdos. Now go live deliciously. 😈

New Quitely Superman just dropped

I am not even remotely exaggerating when I say that it's statements (and their related threads) like this that keep me on social media. Everything else seems determined to drive me away, but then a little nugget of pure brilliance like this emerges out of the din and warms my soul.

Movie star handsome.

Keith Haring died of AIDS, aged 31, on this day in 1990. While best known for his cartoonish Pop-inspired style, early on he made some absolutely savage Xerox collage works that are the kinds of artworks we need right now
