This incredible review of The Mythmakers (review by Lev Grossman!) in the NYT has left me crying in a NYC Starbucks. nytimes.com/2024/09/27/books…

How Tolkien and Lewis Re-enchanted a War-Weary World (Published 2024)

A graphic novel makes a powerful case that if these two men had never met, 20th-century pop culture might have taken an entirely different course.

Obama tonight on his Cheesecake Factory line: "They mobilized a whole of government response to that joke. Not to inflation, but to that joke. The White House even called the Secretary of the Treasury. This is the man who is in charge of the economy. The person who's supposed to be figuring out how to make your life more affordable. The guy who's supposed to be figuring out how to lower inflation. And reduce interest rates. They told him he should hold a press conference in front of the Cheesecake Factory."

A traditional Catholic calendar and diagram of the Summa Theologica by Thomas Aquinas are the two largest projects I've completed here. My favorite thing about running an art studio is connecting with people in this last quarter of the year when they give my stuff as gifts. It's very cool to be invited into people's homes, lives, and relationships. You can see both projects in this thread, or here in my shop: owen-cyclops.myshopify.com/

Cannot relate to anyone less than the type of person who thinks a Narnia rock opera sounds bad. Can't comment on the movie, I haven't seen much more than anyone else, but if the words "Narnia rock opera" scare you we simply don't have anything in common.

If you’ve never read a @hendrixart book, I heartily encourage you to do so. He proves you can say serious things in playful ways and plumb the depths of the faith through visual and illustrative ways. Also: he’s a really good dude.

Our age needs men and women who have the courage to do good even when it comes at a cost. Draw close to those who are alone, support those who are weary, and seek out those who have drifted away. Have the courage to forgive, to begin again, and to engage in dialogue.
