Wizards Vs. LesbiansWizards Vs. LesbiansBONUS: THE COMMODORE (AUBREY/MATURIN #17)Our adventure correspondent Isaac Fellman joins us once again, this time to talk about Patrick O'Brien and the age of sail through the lens of the seventeenth book in the Aubrey/Maturin series. We chose to do it this way a) because we thought it would be funny and b) because this book features a small autistic girl healed through the power of Irishness, which opens an interesting line of inquiry about both the author and the project generally.2025-07-271h 20The Sacred SlopeThe Sacred Slope8.

What if, instead of trying to automate everything, you started with just one task? One repetitive, manual task that drains your time and energy.

God has already done his part by storing treasures for us, but we must do our part and go in and take possession of it. The Lord spoke to the children of Israel in Deuteronomy 1:6-8 and told them they had been at the mountain for too long and it was time to get up, go in, & take possession of the land God promised them.
