I've started watching Evil and it's pretty solid-- intriguing ideas, great creature effects, good acting. Three episodes in and I'm excited to see where it goes.

I'm so freaking stoked for more Evil Dead, especially after Evil Dead Rise was so fantastic.

I just have to let you know that while I was editing the episode, I felt very vindicated by you expressing your passionate love for This Is How You Lose The Time War: I was the person who made NJ read it and was furious when she only gave it 3 stars on Goodreads.

The terrors are creeping closer! Though, with this anthology, maybe the terrors are already in the room with us, ya know?

As a long-time fan of all things Homestar Runner, I am ashamed to admit that I'm just now playing Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People. I have missed out, it's really freaking funny.
