hey, you kooky kids! new rant article up on my media blog The Babbler, this time about a specific problem I have with the character designs in G3 Monster High

NOTE: I am not bashing on the character designs or complaining about nostalgia! I really like G3, it’s just I absolutely finally had to talk about the excessive usage of character motifs, which I explain in the article. gimme a chance?

G3 Monster High design mini rant: Excessive usage of motifs

Motifs aren’t the enemy—excessive usage is. DISCLAIMER: I am not here to completely diss the G3 designs, whether it be the dolls or Nickelod

g’day, my friends! it’s Babbler time again! I have a lot to catch up on, mainly in regards to Song Review Saturdays, but today we’re focusing on something new and different.

it’s my first time showcasing a project / original series made by friends! I have just reviewed @weirdstuffthathappens!

“Weird Stuff That Happens” — An eccentric up-and-coming site

“The world is full of weird stuff that happens.” What is this project? Recently, The Babbler has been given the honor of being featured on a

in the review, I cover every tab on the Weird Stuff That Happens site and talk a bit about its personable moderators / contributors. if you’re itching for fun and obscure trivia, media analyses, short stories, cartoons and ‘toony vibes, nostalgia, discussion of interests, and more — plus a general touch of surreality — I think you’d dig WSTH 😎 go have a look!

Song Review Saturday time again! this time I did a really horrible song, instead of one I really like 😌

Song Review Saturday! No. 3

Happy Saturday evening! It won’t be happy much longer when you learn about this song. A while back one of my friends introduced it to me so

give it up for…

Temporary Secretary!

happy Friday, lads! a new post is out on The Babbler, “A problem I have with portrayals of Trillian from Hitchhiker’s Guide”, in which I briefly rant about the TV and cinematic versions of Trillian essentially whitewashing her. there’s also a drawing at the end!

hey folks! I’m back doing Song Review Saturday on The Babbler after a brief hiatus! tonight, we got a funky little review of “Twisting” by They Might Be Giants!

Song Review Saturday! No. 2

And what a lovely Saturday for this! Actually, it’s quite hot today over here in Jersey. Maybe read this with a glass of ice water at hand?

if you haven’t listened to the song yet, I hope you find it as pleasurable as I do — it’s one of my favorites 😏

finally promoting my media blog here! it ain’t perfect, but I just updated my logo and the organization is a little better so I figured now is a good time 👉🏼👈🏼

it’s called The Babbler, which can be reached at thegoggledbabbler.wordpress.com — basically it’s where I review things like movies, books, shows, albums / songs, etc. sometimes discussions about my own art projects thrown in

there’s only a few things there now, I plan to do more over time! I get a little overexcited while writing sometimes, but I promise I have thoughtful things to say

I’ve got things like an analysis of Kilroy Was Here by Styx, where I break down how the resulting songs fit into the experimental rock opera concept of the album — and some reviews of movies like Dreamscape (1984) and this weird Puss in Boots movie with Christopher Walken in it — and I plan to start a little somethin’ called Song Review Saturday (on Saturdays 😏)

if anyone has any suggestions for things at any point—movies, albums / songs, books or comics, anything like that—you can reach me here, at my Insta (groovy_nacho), and straight from the blog

okay that’s all, have a very cool day 😎

another upload to my blog but it’s just a silly sequel to a very brief shitpost I made about the Disney TV movie series “Zombies” (“Z-O-M-B-I-E-S”)

new post here, original post here

the original was made after my brother made me watch Zombies 1 and 2 like six times in a row… I am fully immersed in how the Zombies series handles their bonkers stories and lore…
