Fort Christmas XV, constructed by @bladebarringer.com and the kids.
It’s the first time I’ve been hands off with the annual blanket fort. My stupid little back injury wouldn’t really let me bend in the way I’d have needed to bend to execute the kids’ design.

@alyssakaye.bsky.social any recs?
I have a nephew just the right age to be sucked into online toxicity (almost 13). He reads (esp manga) and plays TTRPGs, and I *think* he still thinks I’m somewhat cool.

I offered to write “Happy 7th Birthday” in the speech balloon, but my daughter said that didn’t make sense.
She had a very specific vision, which was for me to render this Squirrel Girl panel in buttercream so she could eat Hippo the Hippo’s face.

@breebird33.bsky.social my family has read Garlic and the Vampire several times this week. One kid spent several weeks worth of allowance to buy a Lego vampire minifigure inspired by the book. Thank you for writing it!

In 1970, John Boorman of Zardoz fame wrote a film treatment of LotR.
It is a STINKER of a film, although there are some legitimately interesting ideas tucked into it.
I read it so you won't have to!
A🧵 of the best and worst pieces of John Boorman's LORD OF THE RINGS SCREENPLAY.

Come to find out what leads autistics into and out of fundamentalism, stay to hear Jon’s truly unhinged method of gathering data from ancient language teachers.
Another episode of Christianity on the Spectrum has been unleashed onto the world, in this episode me and @alyssakaye.bsky.social try to answer a lot of the questions that I have been getting about Autistic Christians and Fundamentalism.

Throughout the year, I keep track of my favorite songs I first heard that year, and then compile my top ones into a playlist. It doesn't matter if the songs came out that year, just that I first heard them in that year.
This year, I made a website to go with it. Check it out!

We have (accidentally) convinced our kids that Fort Christmas is a widely known Christmas Eve tradition, instead of just a thing we started doing when we first got married.
What is to stop you (yes you!) from building a fort out of whatever’s around?

I’m not over how fun and weird it is that Greg and Wirt’s guide through The Unknown is named Beatrice. I mean, of course she is, but she’s a CONFLICTED Beatrice with an AGENDA.
Like if Dante’s Beatrice intended to guide him into Inferno instead of into Paradiso.
