Due to travel, multiple, near-fatal cases of vacation poisoning, and various broken bones (or maybe just the one), we regretfully have to push November's WAC Movie—about Christmas at Pee-Wee's Playhouse—into mid-December (Patreon: Dec 12, Free preview: Dec 19)

Thank you for understanding!

had to make this after @bobservo.bsky.social made the joke
A parody of the movie poster for "One Battle After Another" except it says "One Rattle After Another" and features Skinner, Chalmers, and Ralph from The Simpsons (based on a famous scene where Ralph asks "what's a battle?" and Skinner tries to convince Chalmers he said "what's that rattle?")
