There are at least four different projects that have exploded here. :-/
Image for my syllabus for this year's "Topics in Franciscan Ethics - Joyful Service." I like how it turned out. (some of these are authors we're reading, some of these are figures that will be discussed. Not all authors we're reading are pictured here, nor all the figures to be discussed!)
Kudos to the designer of this magic the gathering box. Very clever, and really gorgeous! (Also, I went 4-0 on RW dwarves.) #magicthegathering #thehobbit #mtghob
Research. Coming soon to an academic conference book fair near you in late 2027.
I never did read this Galadriel as black; I wonder what the art direction specified.

"What I am asking for is really very ridiculous. Oh Lord, I am saying, at present I am a cheese, make me a mystic, immediately. But then God can do that — make mystics out of cheeses." - Flannery O'Connor, in her prayer journal.
Anyone have any experience with this old #dragonquest card game? Was it any good?
Happy 40th, Dragon Quest! The first real RPG I played, which fed and influenced how I received almost all the fantasy games and fiction and art I played and read and made!
Surprising no one, I got Simone Weil. The constellation is also quite reflective of my influences.
This is before coffee. After coffee I became a 4/4 professor with fiying and vigilance. #mtn2026
Easy way to make me happy and keep me busy for hours? Give me Little cardboard rectangles with pictures of heroes and monsters. 30 years of proven effectiveness. #dragonquest #carddass
Today’s escapism: More kithkin shenanigans. Community matters. 7-0 sealed. #mtglorwyn
Today’s escapism: I do love some Green-White kithkin good times! (Opponent in pic 3 conceded the next turn). #mtglorwyn
Went to MMoG Mass in my exhausted face, apparently. Happy New Year, Bluesky folks.
Family’s out after a successful pre-travel family gift opening. Time to tidy up while listening to my sadvent playlist. Happy Xmas.
#aarsbl25 bound, bright and early from SUX. Hope to see you there!
I know that MtGsky is very happy about ninja turtles today, but I’m very happy about this #dragonquest closed beta!
