CAKE WATCH 2026: you guys… it’s one week later, and the mystery birthday cake is still there, outside of my local @Staples. Still in pretty good shape. I’ll brush off some of the ants if anyone’s interested in a piece.

Nate’s Half-Assed Apple Crumble. Need a quick autumny treat? I invented this last week. Takes about 15 minutes to prep. 30 minutes to bake.

D'ORC 12 Raawk is dragging D'orc to the Dark Realm, kicking and screaming. But all hell breaks loose when they reach an outpost full of Minaurs, wicked little beasts that mine the caves for the war. Soon everyone will be kicking and screaming, biting…dying… And a LOT of it.
