Dream spaces
I dunno. Maybe everyone does this. I honestly don’t know. But since I was a kid I dream in reoccurring places. Not real places, mind you. But buildings, homes, apartments, structures – that are the same...
X-Men Days of Future Past
So I went to go see X-Men Days of Future Past today and I had some… feelings about it. Then I thought – I could share them! And so I will do just that. But with that sort of discussion comes spoilers...
Goat Rider
A pitch for something that will never happen but I want to share it anyway. I mean if someone wants to pay me to write this for Marvel, I 100% will… Beatrice Albinson saw something she shouldn’t have....
Easter 2014
That time of year, once more, as happens every year since 2004, to post the annual Easter comic! Enjoy!
Get up. Water the mulch. Go inside. Work. Water the mulch.
Growing up in NY I never had a lawn or yard or anything like that. So when I moved to Portland and saw that the lawns at the house were basically only weeds, a few scraps of grass clinging on, I sighed. I wanted to...
Portland – polite garbage… wait…
After spending 38 years in NY (with tiny exceptions for a few years in Boston) I moved to Portland this past October. And already the changes have started. It’s… strange, but in no way unwelcome. The first...

The dragon roared as it died, shaking the ground beneath our feet. We could see the arcing lights of whatever high-born magic killed the giant lizard as they stained the sky and burnt the clouds. We just...
The journalist blame game needs to end.
Ever stopped and thought “Lazy journalists!” and muttered about how they just produce fluff and don’t do the work and don’t cover important things? Yeah. We all have. But the problem is by...
Wonder Woman: The Movie
A while back I got asked to contribute to an article full of people with ideas of how to do a Wonder Woman movie. The article didn’t happen though so I thought “Well why not just post it here?” so...
Politically Correct – The Dumbest Term in the World?
You know why people love to toss around the term Politically Correct as a warding sign against ancient magics of hoped for equality? Why any notion of the idea that “Maybe we shouldn’t do this any...
My Problems With Star Wars
Recently I got gifted the complete Star Wars on blu-ray. I’ve always had a strange relationship with Star Wars films. Empire Strikes Back is to blame for Scooby-Doo being ruined for me*. For example. But...
Time travel and how the universe actually works.
All right! So you have 4 types of time travel. They break down like this: Causal linear – Stuff in the past directly affects stuff in the future. If I kill a dude in the past, he is dead, his kids never...
This is how you get Pants.
Yesterday we had to go out, Laszlo and I, to do a bunch of errands. Along the way we ran across a Petsmart. So, hey, Watson needed a new cat tree thing to hang out on and in we went. At the door was a place...
Why we do not need to renumber Doctors
All right look. Hurt isn’t playing the Valeyard but this comes into play. Spoiler for the mini-episode “The Night Doctor” so watch that first I suppose. …still here…? All right…...
Do not edit
Stop it. Right now. Stop editing. Look, if you’re writing then your job is to write. That’s your only job. Because here’s the truth: Over 95% of people who try to write things never finish. This...
