Me on a nice day in the park on a fall day! The best! I've got a brown beard that's just starting to gray in some places, though it doesn't show in this photo. Dark red glasses, blue/green cap, with a yellow and blue plaid flannel, maroon bomber jacket, a lil peek at a purple dragon tattoo on my arm, and a blue Vital Hero Digimon watch that I got years after people stopped playing those. I still haven't digivolved it past Drimogemon because I never read the instructions on how, but I think he's cute. This is really dating this since this is meant to be a pinned post, we'll see if he ever digivolved when I inevitably revisit this in a year or two.

LOVE this but coming up with MMPR-era monster names is so hard because they range from genuinely good puns (Centiback, Artisimole) to lazy first draft names (Brick Bully, Silver Horns)

But my gut instinct tells me.... Dollface

Brilliant idea. What name would you have given this monster?

I'd argue season 3 is the one that has the least Tommy focus out of his whole tenure actually! It's mostly Kim's season and the whole team gets either a multi-episode arc or a focus ep. Rocky and Adam definitely got the least though. I mostly worked backwards from "Rocky Horror Picture Show" LOL

Perhaps the most anticipated episode because of its legacy and fan passion for it (you'll hear SIX different voices in this one) and we put a lot of work into our analysis! Get the historical context of pollution, Japan's film industry, and even digivolutions and clitoris lasers. One of our best!

Don't let the smog monster melt you into bones! @avartwork.bsky.social joins SKREEONK for Godzilla vs. Hedorah, which tackled the existential threat of pollution as one of the weirdest and most gruesome Godzilla films 💀

Power Rangers never used the Kakuranger yokai Konaki-jiji, but they could have made a Halloween episode in season 3 where this monster turns all the Rangers but Rocky into dolls and he has to overcome his fear of creepy dolls to save them, and it would be called "The Rocky Horror Picture Show"
Konakijiji a sort of baby doll yokai from episode 10 of Kakuranger Konakijiji a sort of baby doll yokai from episode 10 of Kakuranger, in his cute baby form

books should have an anti-acknowledgements section where the author talks shit about all the people who fucked them over while they were trying to write the thing. not bc I personally want to write one but bc I love gossip

Oh that is cool as hell! I never thought about memorizing the tones but that makes a lot of sense. I think a lot of people forget how valuable they are.

SUPER MARIO MOMENT returns next week for SEASON 2!

I'll be diving into more classic games but first I'll be delivering my honest review of Universal Studio's SUPER NINTENDO WORLD attractions (in both the US and Japan) with my very own Super Bro @rorysteele.bsky.social

See you on October 20th!
