Growing resentful of all those university presses sending me emails about book sales. My shopping cart is way bigger than my wallet or my free time. Now I understand that NPR article about Gen Z stressing over micro trends, haha

I swore I would never write this game but I forgot February only has 28 days, and I needed an easy win for the Patreon before the month ended, so here is "Trapped in an Elevator with Ayn Rand" the One Page RPG

This is the One Page RPG called Trapped in an Elevator with Ayn Rand. It's not my best work.

Lavishly woven in fine wool and silk with silver and gilded threads, the seven wall hangings collectively known as “The Unicorn Tapestries” are certainly amongst the most spectacular surviving artworks of the late Middle Ages: publicdomainreview.org/collection/t...

This is a grievous loss of archival material — the Theosophical Society was tremendously influential both for the development of modern religions and for the academic study of religion.

Thanks to everyone who attended our panel on Democratising Science at the #NHMExplorers Conference! Apologies that I was unable to stick around but it was amazing to share the space with (much more talented!) people doing incredible work within the environmental sciences.

IT'S A TOOTHY-CLAW! When I was a kid, my mom used to tell me about The Toothy-Claw, which was made up of, you guessed it, only teeth & claws. It had a mouth & could eat & eat & eat, but it couldn't POOP. One day it ate TOO MUCH and it EXPLODED! I don't remember the moral of the story. 😂 #monsters

I also do monsters. Not sure who to talk about the Crawdemon, but I did talk to Dr. Mittman about unicorns and the Tarasque #DnD #fantasyart youtu.be/mqGmurxXUQA

A digital drawing of a red arthropod-like monster. It is long with six segmented legs. Each end of it's body has a fanged mouth and three arms branching out. Each arm is long with pincer claws. There are no eyes. It seems to be the same from the back or the front.

Finally getting around to editing my interview with Dr. Natasha Mikles about Buddhist Hell. Should be a wicked good time

Working on the second half of the interview with Dr. Asa Mittman. Hopefully, I can put it out in a few hours. In the meantime, check out the book that much of our conversation is based on: www.themorgan.org/exhibitions/...

Sitting on an episode with Dr. Natasha Mikles for a while, and this NPR story reminded me of it. Specifically, at 1:31 they describe how the priest thought they were scary as a child. I want to talk to Hindus/Buddhists about how they perceive the supernatural www.npr.org/2024/04/26/1...

I'll never top this thumbnail image that I made for this episode. It doesn't quite fit the contents, but does nicely set up the mood: monsters in medieval art with Dr. Asa Mittman. (And yes, I know Leonardo da Vinci is Renaissance not medieval) #ArtHistory #unicorns #Tarasque youtu.be/mqGmurxXUQA

An edited photo of The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci. Jesus is depicted as normal, but all of the disciples are monsters from the TV show Sesame Street. It has the title for the episode: "Goblinological Fantasies - Ep. 04," "Man Was the MONSTER After All".

Part of the popular conception of buddhist sculpture thinks of buddhas as just heads. A local psychic even has a few big ones in their front yard

A screenshot of an image search for "buddha sculpture." Most of the images are of sitting buddhas, but two are just disembodied heads.

An illustration inspired by my conversation with Dr. Emma Yasui @ponopls.bsky.social about starches and foodways in Jomon Japan~ #archaeology #archaeogaming #goblin #DnD #DungeonsAndDragons youtu.be/-YoQNPZMGAQ

A digital drawing of two goblins preparing food. One female goblin is sitting on the ground with a large flat stone between her legs. She has nuts on large leaves placed on the stone. She is smashing the nuts with a human skull. A young male goblin is standing by with another human skill turned upside down and filled with sardines. They are singing a song: "Bish bash, smish smash. Beat the nuts into a mush. Crack crunk, thud thunk. Mix the mash with fists of fish."
