Current Post On Trae’s Blog:
So a lot of you know that I have a Patreon. If you didn't, uh... you do now? I originally launched it for my comics, but it kind of transitioned to being mostly focused on my Witchcraft podcast years ago -- because that's where I had extra content I could give folks -- but it's overall just for "me" in general.
Anyways.
My goal for the last year has been to increase the "value" for Patreon patrons, with all paid tiers getting access to a copy of Super Awesome Action Heroes, and the five dollar and ten dollar tiers getting access to my novels (at different times -- the five dollar tier patrons get them on a year delay).
For a while I had been doing Patreon exclusive "vlogs," but those didn't last just because I literally ran out of things to say in them. I mean, I'm boring. The only eventful stuff in my life is the eventful stuff happening to all of us right now. Back in April, I think I came up with something fun that I've now done two months in a row.
And that's record reaction videos to episodes of The Pagan Invasion.
You see, for the April episode of BS-Free Witchcraft I did an episode on the structure of Satanic Panic propaganda, and used the first episode of 1991's The Pagan Invasion as the example to illustrate my points. For that episode I needed to, obviously, rewatch that first episode for research.
Rather than just watch it in private though, I recorded my rewatch as a commentary and reaction video and posted it as a Patreon exclusive video. And even though the podcast has moved on from the topic, folks asked me to react to episode two... so I did that last week. I fully intend to review the whole series on my Patreon now, and each one of my videos ends up being like two hours long. I don't know if I'll get a chance to do one every month, but I plan to get through the whole series.
Honestly I'm not sure why I didn't think of doing something like this before.
So yeah, we're doing fun stuff there. Oh, also, before I forget to say something -- July is the annual Q&A episode of BS-Free Witchcraft, and I need listener questions. If you have something you want me to respond to on the show, just send it in via the show's contact form by July 11th 2025.

Could’ve sworn Sarah claimed to be straight at one point… Or am I thinking of someone else?
She realized she was bisexual a few chapters back. She realized she had feelings for Ruth.
Yeah, Sarah at one point THOUGHT she was straight,
Turned out not so much. Which is not uncommon for someone in their early twenties not to have figured everything out about themselves.
I mean, she and Ruth have been in a polyamorous relationship since the end of chapter seven…
I almost directly quoted the comic there… http://www.unconventional-comic.com/2016/07/the-confession/
@Gordo – Thank you! I remember her stating she had feelings for Ruth, but forgot the line about not being entirely straight.
@Langland – The way I see it, you can have feelings for someone that goes against your sexuality, thus why why Sarah liking Ruth made sense (she’s known her a good while by the time this comes up).
But she literally just met Tracy, so without the “not entirely straight” admission, I got confused.
So…. how tall is ‘tall’ in this specific case? As someone who is 6’5″ from a family of people over 6′, my perspective on such things is off.
I don’t like giving exact heights, because lord knows I’ll forget later and end up contradicting myself, but she’s over 6 feet tall for sure.
Sarah’s also probably only 5’1″ to 5’3″?
(Lynn, for reference, is one of the only characters with an “official” height at 5’4″ and Ruth is close to that. Lynn’s boots have a slight heel though, so Ruth is probably closer to 5’5″. Sarah, on the other hand, is consistently drawn shorter than that by a few inches)
I’m not going to remember specific numbers anyway, but thank you for the rough idea.
