The Queue
The Queue: Only through the elimination of violence
So I watched The Velocipastor last night.
It’s not a good movie, but it is an astonishing watch. It’s a movie that knows just how weird, potentially bad, and completely off the rails it is. Saying it’s funny feels disingenuous — it’s a movie that is very deliberately crackerjack, a film that will present you drug dealing religious zealots from China who are also Ninjas in a battle against a disillusioned Catholic Priest who cuts his hand on a dinosaur tooth and becomes, well, you’ve seen the title of the movie.
Anyway, this is the Queue.
The Queue: It’s October!
The scent of woodsmoke and slightest chill, combined with the fact that I can now officially put up all my spooky scary decor has propelled me from the endless month of Mar-gu-sep-ril into October. As such, I’m pretty sure I’m going to put up my Christmas tree on November 1st. Why not.
This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and we give you answers even if we are clearly kind of confused about things.
The Queue: Skeletons
It’s the most magical time of the year! The leaves are changing, it’s finally getting cool enough that I can break out my thick sweaters, and skeletons have started to appear again. This may shock you, but Halloween is my favorite holiday. I know, I know — try and contain your surprise.
As the veil between this world and the next grows thinner, I take you now to — the Queue.
The Queue: Existential breakdown o’clock
This month sure has been a year, hasn’t it? Well, let’s give up on existential breakdowns for just long enough to answer some Queue questions, shall we?
The Queue: Happy 1st day of Halloween!
Happy first day of October Halloween, everyone! This is my favorite month, and I hope every second of it proves to be spooOoOoO0oky!
While we spook, let’s also Queue.
The Queue: I fell down the Hero Forge rabbit hole
So my Mountain Dwarf Barbarian got an Adamantine Breastplate a few weeks back. I’m wearing it because it renders me immune to critical hits, which, combined with my Bear Totem Barbarian rage ability to resist all damage but Psychic means that I am really hard to hurt. But it does mean that the really awesome art I commissioned of her isn’t character accurate anymore, and considering real life issues I can’t really afford to commission new art right now. Luckily, Hero Forge just added their paint section and so I spent like six hours making a breastplate wearing version and non-breastplate wearing version of her because that was a better use of my time than panicking about current events.
Now, I’d still rather get a professionally painted mini, because I’m terrible and I did a terrible job, but it was still fun. I really love my crazy little Dwarf maniac. She killed a boat once.
This is the Queue. Let’s talk about stuff.
The Queue: I bet you think this song is about you
Rutherford and I are really just trying to get some peace and quiet this week. Let’s all grab a mug of something warm while we settle in to answer questions! Hopefully, a bear won’t be sniffing at yours the whole time. Rude.
This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and we have the answers!
The Queue: I missed you all!
It’s been so long since I wrote a Queue! Like, slightly more than a week! I missed you all! I saw that Mitch made you do all the hard work in supplying your own earworms for Anna. I hope you left her some good ones.
But it’s time to return to our regularly scheduled program — the Queue.
The Queue: This week sure has been a year
It’s still 2020. I don’t think I have anything else to say. Let’s Queue.
The Queue: Plain to see again
Well, well, well, if it isn’t The Queue. How long’s it been since I last saw you? Oh, right. Not that long, actually. Regardless, I hope you’ve been well in these couple days since we last talked.
If you haven’t, might I suggest a Queue in these trying times?
