no myth is safely broken

In TV, I finished watching Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (season 2) which continues to be a ridiculous, clunky show about chasing monsters and having family trauma and I love it.

harpieicons has been making icons so I finally have an icon of my faves, the 50s era squad. I did actually watch the Kong: Skull Island movie (which I think was weak despite Tom Hiddleston and Brie Larson being hot) before this season and it gave some context but wasn't ultimately necessary. Random thoughts (1) I am begging them to do something more interesting with the quantum time travel idea next season. (2) Keiko forgiving Billy for leaving Hiroshi behind when she found out it was because he was still trying to find her was such a weird beat to me. Like his faith/obsession with finding her is nice I guess but it doesn't absolve him of not taking care of their son first?
