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.
So in a way this con has been a bit of a disaster
In what way hasn’t it been a bit of a disaster?
remember when Bork con had to deal with a thunderstorm that knocked out the power and a tornado warning delayed the cosplay contest
Or remember the time Shiitake Con folded days before the con, and attendees showed up to an event that never happened?
That one was a good plot although I still wonder if there was a con that actually did that.
Yes, Langland, it’s happened.
In 2006 was Flanvention 2. The company such tens of thousands of more dollars from attendees during the last week prior. And then cancelled on Day 1, didn’t even show up to tell attendees.
I meant to spell “sucked”
So… should I assume I know what’s going to happen in the next strip, and NOT spoil people who don’t see it coming?
I forsee flames. Maybe metaphor flames of rage, perhaps literal flames of arson. Not sure.
