I started doing some more substantial entries, but I was tired after a long week and didn’t have the energy for it. So, since I don’t feel like talking about religion, philosophy, and such today, the next logical subject is My Little Pony fan-art. I made these a long time ago and have been meaning … Continue reading Friday Flotsam: Fan-Art with Commentary
Thought of the Day: A Realization
While cooking dinner tonight, I suddenly realized something. You know that episode of The Simpson, 'You Only Move Twice', where Homer gets a dream job with a boss who turns out to be a Bond villain ("My department is way ahead of the lasers and germ warfare divisions!"), only for the rest of the family … Continue reading Thought of the Day: A Realization
Batman: The Terror pt 3. The Final Night
The final installment of The Terror is now up at fanfiction.net! Terror lays thick over Gotham. As another night falls, Batman vows that the killings will end before dawn.

Talking the Eternal Trio at the Everyman
No, not that Eternal Trio. Not that one either. I mean the eternal trio of romance: the hero, the princess, and the dragon: Chesterton explicated on this while discussing Charles Dickens' novel Nicholas Nickelby, as the most basic form of romance: a princess is menaced by a dragon and a hero fights the dragon to … Continue reading Talking the Eternal Trio at the Everyman
Friday Flotsam: In the News, Invisible Man, and Folk Song
1. I have barely looked at the news in weeks and have frankly been much happier for it. After all, I have no power to affect anything that is in the news, and it’s going to affect me I’ll find out about it sooner or later. Not to mention that most of it is either … Continue reading Friday Flotsam: In the News, Invisible Man, and Folk Song
Thought of the Day: Absurdities and Atrocities
Voltaire: “He who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.” Me: Yeah, just look at what happened with 'Liberty, Equality, Fraternity.' Of course, what you consider an atrocity is largely dependent on what you believe to be an absurdity, so that the statement, upon examination, only means “thinking the wrong thing means … Continue reading Thought of the Day: Absurdities and Atrocities
Channel Update Video
I've been meaning to get this up for a while: just a quick video for my YouTube channel giving a channel update https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pR33SrUWvv8

Flotsam: Self-Examination, Plot Holes, Halloween-ness, and a Joke
1. I notice that I have a bad habit (and perhaps you do as well) that when I start to pray and try to meditate upon God that I tend to fall into criticism of modernity: thinking of how far the contemporary world is from the majesty of the Divine plan and how many ways … Continue reading Flotsam: Self-Examination, Plot Holes, Halloween-ness, and a Joke
Meta-Knight Responds
Apparently, a code monkey with delusions of grandeur has decided to rebrand his evil corporation from 'Facebook' to 'Meta'. Because that doesn't sound presumptuous in the least, nor at all confusing given how common that word has become in our culture. Not least that I think a certain fan-favorite character - one known for his … Continue reading Meta-Knight Responds
