Back when I first started doing webcomics I thought that one of the essential things you needed was a message board for your site. So, after a couple of years, I implemented one into the site! It was the single worst mistake of my career. You can imagine why. The boards were quickly taken over … Continue reading “Message Boards Forever Wounded Me”
Last week my friends and I wrapped up a long-running game session, where we played Pathfinder Second Edition’s excellent dungeon crawl, The Abomination Vaults. When we started this adventure several years(!) ago I thought it was going to be a simple, casual, and classic adventure of heroes descending into a deep dungeon to vanquish an … Continue reading “The Abomination Vaults”
We just finished watching the season finale of X-Men ’97, a series I’d already blogged about with great enthusiasm. I won’t give away any spoilers for those who haven’t caught up or watched at all, but now that all the current episodes have aired there’s something spoiler-free I want to praise about the show. It … Continue reading “Without Wolverine”
Nothing makes me angrier in my personal life than dishonesty, because it is so very easy to lie to me. I am, for better or worse, a very trusting person. My default state of mind is to think that people are telling me the truth, because in my mind there is no reason to lie … Continue reading “Dishonesty”
I’ve read to my son since he was a baby, and continue to do so now. As he’s gotten older I’ve moved on to full novels, seeing what sticks and what doesn’t. The Hobbit was a success, and it is an absolute joy to read aloud. A Wizard of Earthsea was also successful, and I … Continue reading “The Prydain Chronicles”

It comes around to various locations in my area every few months and I jump on the opportunity to attend it whenever it arrives. Having been plant-based since the late 90s, I jump on the chance to find vegan-friendly goodies, especially when … Continue reading “My Cool Uncle Moment vs. the Invasion of the Brands”
All the remaining pages for Spirit Shepherd are finished. They’ll be posting tomorrow and next week, and then this story will be over. Folks who have reached out to me have expressed that they’ve enjoyed it! It was fun for me to make and we’ll definitely be seeing Saritha again after this concludes next week, … Continue reading “Just Not Getting It”
My wife’s birthday was last week. She normally goes away on a Girls’ Weekend with her best friend, whose birthday is only two days removed from hers. They celebrate together for a few days then return home to their families. This year her friend had to cancel their trip, and while she was bummed about … Continue reading “Surprise!”
There was no blog on Tuesday because I arrived home too late after seeing Heilung in concert, two hours away from where I live. Not only was it the middle of the night, but I was exhausted both from the lengthy drive and the intensity of the emotions I was feeling from the performance. Two … Continue reading “Heilung”
Fuck mediums. I think these people are the scum of the earth. Before I go any further with this nuanced and emotionally-even blog post I want to extend the olive branch to energy workers/healers. I have friends who make an honest living doing energy work and have many friends and family who have benefited from … Continue reading “Lying To Those In Mourning”
