Didn’t finish the series before the movie

Hello,

yet again I’ve made the foolish decision of waiting until the literal last second before watching an anime film to watch the rest of the series. I did the same with Evangelion. I have no idea why I do this as it only pains me . Regardless, I crammed foolishly in one day until episode 30, but I am unlikely to be able to finish the series. How much less will I enjoy the film than someone who did finish it? thank you.

Chronic Canker Sore Issue, No Treatment

I was recently at an ENT where I asked about my canker sores. pretty much every week and a half for nearly a year, as soon as one ends, another one appears. I’m so tired of the pain. they said that if nothing was out of sorts on my blood test, and my dentist spotted no issues, he said he can only recommend that I take Vitamin B12 even if my levels are normal. He said during certain periods of my life this will just flare up. I started using mouthwash which I haven’t before. what can I do at this point? I legit feel like I’m going crazy and I don’t want this to ruin my vacation in a month.

[PC/Web][2015] Flash game site with specific mascot

In about 2015, or a year or two later earlier perhaps, I used to frequent a flash game website which had a wide variety of games. It had the remake of Pico’s School, but I mostly went there for the Mario games they had on there.

The name of the website was something like… three letters or numbers, followed by “games.” More importantly, there was a mascot in the logo. He looked like a lizard standing upright, with a smile and only one eye visible. I know this sounds crazy but I very fondly remember it 😭

The Trolley Problem: Baki Edition

Would he be mad at you thinking he couldn't handle a trolley if you did nothing? Or would he be mad at you sending a trolley his way? Much to consider.

MBMBAM (and MaxFun, TAZ, etc.) as a Time Capsule

Recently I've been reading the honestly great comments on this thread and this has caused me to consider how dated MBMBAM might feel to many.
As user TortlePow3r surmised, the idea of a "professional podcaster" feels outdated as a concept. This is not to say that podcasts are somehow a medium which no one is getting into, or that they are not profitable, but the idea of a "podcast network" in the way that MaxFun has set it up feels like it simply has no future. It's death is not fated, of course, but it feels wrong to call it alive- more aptly, one might say it is on life support. It just feels like everyone else who is into podcasting has either a massive following who they levy into other ventures (think Joe Rogan) or have an actual job outside of it (literally anybody can do this) or are just doing it casually.

I only started listening to the podcast up until 2014. (To clarify, I started listening in 2022, but 2014 is the most recent upload date of the episodes I have listened to). This is arguably one of the last years of the Obama era (excuse my American-centered phrasing) and it definitely shows. The internet and tech had become far, far more accessible by this point of course, but still had its niche facets that allowed people to have their truly own spaces. There was sort of a weird optimism in social justice. Individuals could gesture safely at the suggestion of "progress" of something without doing it, and were able to profit off of it, without centering the content of the show or their personalities around it much like the grifters of the modern age. This felt like the perfect breeding grounds for a show with (who do you call someone that is in a podcast? Like besides podcaster. Speaker?) people like the three brothers.

In the capacity I've described, the earlier episodes feel like they fulfill their purpose as a view into a microcosm of at least a little bit of internet culture at the time. However, my question to modern listeners is this: How much of this old attitude do you see in the show today? Is it a attempt to hold onto this attitude or old model of creation that is slowly fading away, has it changed to survive, or is it entirely something else? Answers to this questions and feelings/criticism of my writing is accepted. This wasn't so much of an essay as it was me writing down unstructured thoughts to start a conversation with.

Does Memento still stand a chance?

Hello, I have been a long time fan of Yugioh. About two years ago or so, I wanted to make a memento deck, but didn't have time. Now I do, but obviously metas change a lot in a few years. Are they still even somewhat viable as a rogue option?
