Decluttering my bedside table was one of my 2020 goals. Most of the clutter is comics I picked up… shoot, this time last year. They’ve been there a year, mostly unread. While I could just put them away unread, I’d rather make the effort to read them first. And since any thought not shared on […]

We kicked off the new year needing to move warehouses. Was it the start to 2020 we hoped for? Yes, obviously. What more could we ask for than headaches for us and our customers. Naturally, that’s a big old lie. It’s been a pain in the butt that forced us to close our stores for […]

Over the years I’ve added a few podcasts to my rotation that I enjoy because they teach me. I’ve previously talked about The Allussionist. Another educational podcast I listen to that makes me think and sparks conversation is Freakonomics Radio. Freakonomics Radio is a podcast companion to a series of Freakonomics books, in which economist […]

I recently talked about how the MCU and Star Wars as we knew them ended in 2019, and in some ways it felt like I had to relearn what movies to get excited for, and how. I know I have seen recent trailers that had my attention when I watched them, and yet I can […]

Part 3 (of 3) of my New Year’s Resolution is about turning 40 in 2020* and how I’m preparing for it. When I turned 30 in 2010**, I rented out a theatre at the local Dollar Cinema for a showing of 1986’s GI Joe animated movie. It was my way of saying “I am still […]

Wednesday is when I traditionally extol the virtues of a product, but with the Blind Ferret shop closed while the warehouse moves, there’s no point in trying to sell you something you can’t currently buy. Instead I am continuing my three part series on my most elaborate New Years Resolution by extolling the virtues of […]

New Year’s Resolutions aren’t for everybody, and I get it. It’s based on an arbitrary date at a time of year that’s hard to get and stay motivated. I’m not a huge resolution guy; There have been years when I half-ass it and some when I skip it entirely. But not this year. Maybe it’s […]

We need to move the warehouse. You may have heard whispers that Blind Ferret recently moved offices. That’s, like, 90% true. The warehouse -including stock and staff- didn’t move with the rest of us. Which was fine, we thought, we had an arrangement. Though. Had. Long story short, we need to move warehouses ASAP. That […]

It’s that time of year again, December 24th, when people come from far and wide to wish my brother, Darren, a happy birthday. Oh, Starbucks may want you to believe that there are so many overlapping excuses to pretend winter isn’t the worst, but I believe saying Happy Holidays is just a war on Darren. […]

Fridays, we open the Larchives, Lar’s extensive archive of art work oddities, and share a few pieces. Sometimes there will be a theme, or a reason behind the choices. Other times there will be none. Tis the Friday before Christmas, and all through the site, Lar’s Christmas art was showing his holly jolly side. Santada […]

Twice this year, watching shows based on DC comic characters made me feel like I was doing something… perverse. The first time was watching the first episode of Titans earlier this year. The second time was watching the new Harley Quinn animated series earlier this week. Both times I was watching them alone. If I […]

Here at Blind Ferret, we’re avid consumers of a lot of media, much of which is science fiction and fantasy. One example is Karl Schroeder’s Sun of Suns, book one of his Virga series. Here’s what Sohmer said about it in a blog post from so long ago (June 2009) that I couldn’t even find […]

In the last few years, I’ve developed a couple of hobbies that take up most of my free time. The first is wood working. I love to get into a workshop and build a box, or shelf, or some other household item or gadget out of all kinds of different woods. Being able to take […]

Fridays, we open the Larchives, Lar’s extensive archive of art work oddities, and share a few pieces. Sometimes there will be a theme, or a reason behind the choices. Other times there will be none. I was all set to share a bunch of Lar’s Christmas art, until I realized there’s another Friday between now […]
