I’ve never actually seen Caillou. People don’t seem eager to jump up and defend the show. So, legit question: why does it still exist? Via @alexthechick.

A few things: …Sorry, this was not an exciting day. Sort of writing, without the actual writing.
Got the monthly story to finish, and two more for the Kickstarter (I am not letting those hang over my head again). I remember those halcyon days when I’d just write without knowing where it wa...

This is not even a good idea: it should be a reflexive one. “Disney CEO Bob Iger has offered an update on Marvel Studios’ new movie and series rollout plan. They will now release no more than...
And they have been completed. I imagine anthologies like TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION Vol. 2 are different to edit than novels, since the stories are self-contained. There’s less of a meta-n...

The Mermaid, Jesse Ferguson #commissionearned
Sorry, but I’m a sucker for an alternate timeline. Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy looks like it might be funny. Besides, everybody knows Jar-Jar was supposed to be the hidden Sith Lord all ...
Not an In Nomine item.
Should be fun: “Author Moe Lane will open the floor up for discussion about the methods, tactics and tips on how to crowdfund a book! This information easily translates into art, comics, or eve...

I am a sucker for maps. Always have been. When I was a kid, I’d buy old National Geographics – but only if they came with the maps. So when the HPL Historical Society put up their Gamer Prop ...

Man, I miss the days when you didn’t worry about SEO in your title. I would have totally made a torturous joke about Sony getting swarmed by those ballistic drop bullets HELLDIVER 2 apparently ...

Probably my favorite music from the soundtrack, particularly the second half. The Riders of Rohan, The Two Towers #commissionearned
My condolences to his family and loved ones. There were a lot of good actors in LotR, but… damn all dusty, badly-maintained movie HVAC systems, anyway.
…and hasn’t this one been fun to assemble. We had a busy month last month, what with a new Seneschal, polling on whether to give the current baronage another term*, and of course the event I ...

Yeah, the captain in ‘Fireship’ is a bit of a romantic. Unsurprisingly, really: he’s a sea captain in a fantasy world. It’s practically a class feature.

I remain fascinated by how hard this went. And by that I mean the COBRA song. Somebody went above and beyond on the assignment. GI JOE Movie #commissionearned PS: Seriously, compare it to the fir...
I’m a little surprised, honestly. Francis Ford Coppola’s spent just a little too much time over the last few decades submerged in an Everything You Do Is Awesome field, and it has had some li...

DANGEROUS ASSOCIATIONS is a little tabletop RPG supplement I put together that looks at groups of my own design, and all suitable for campaigns. …I mention this again because you never know who...

I ran out and my old template isn’t available anymore, so I might as well design a new one. Here’s what I want to have on them: Am I missing anything? Bear in mind that I’ll be getting doub...

Not spectacular, but not bad. Unfortunately, once that’s off the list there’s nothing interesting coming up until the new Deadpool movie, and not much after that. Which is a shame. I was hopi...
