The very finest in fake lies, yelling, and jokes that aren't worth the legwork

While–y’know what, perhaps even whilst–browsing the latest from all of my pals in the WordPress reader, I was hit SQUARE IN THE PIE-PLATE by this thrown gauntlet from Birdie’s Book Nook. I’m a sucker for these blogging-meme games; you may have seen some of my Let’s Talk Bookish posts, and I’ve signed up for Bloganuary…
I AM BACK, and have not rested upon my laurels but labored and learned, like Hercules and like Smartcules, his buff cousin who wears glasses and learns by punching. We installed a new floor in our spare room! It was very difficult, but allow me to give you a piece of advice: if you ever…
Okay listen: You know I love you people but my wife’s job is doing a cake for her birthday in forty minutes, and like, comics are still gonna be there later today, but the same cannot be said of cake, so let’s roll this beautiful book footage and get your boi a slice. (Obligatory reminder…

Not (or at least not only) for comics reasons, nor for fever reasons because I’m the only one left in this goddamn state who wears a mask, but for a reason I don’t think I’ve ever brought up in my writings here: my lifelong, absolutely personality-destroying obsession with neography,…
This week’s LBT was Choose Your Own Adventure! So I looked back into the LTB Archives to see what would catch my eye like a fishhook in an unwary face, and saw a prompt on a topic to which I devote a great deal of time in my human life: Tracking Reading. Do you keep…
Against all expectation and odds given by local bookies I am back for my second week of LTB, because I got the dang bug now, and it will not be satisfied until each of the countless eggs it’s laid somewhere on/in my person has hatched into a thoughtful, or at least fun to write, post….
