dimfuture.net

I know, we died again. This is one of the “fits” periods of the “fits and starts” cycle that Dimfuture undergoes every once in a while. I have houseguests and visitors and people actually paying me to write, so that’s been taking priority over this last couple weeks. But never fear, we’ll be back with a vengeance. We always are. Well, I am. I think the Reverend’s vengeance might take place elsewhere. But, anyway, one way or another, vengeance will be involved. We’re not one of those motherfuckers always acting like we forgot about vengeance.

In case you’re wondering about the sudden visual change to dimfuture.net, it’s undergone an overhaul. I’m merely making some back-end changes to the theme, as I realized a bit ago that the links were no longer properly showing up, quite possibly because of the switch to the latest version of WordPress (but then again, maybe not — I don’t know how long they’ve been gone). So, I’m switching to a more stable theme until I can get the issues with the “original” theme fixed. Thanks for your patience!

Edit: And we’re back to our trademark dystopian orange! That didn’t hurt so much, did it? Yes, this is now the default theme, at least until further notice. So, you see, within the space of a single post, I made a liar out of myself!

I want to take this opportunity to congratulate the Reverend Matt for landing a writing gig at Superhero Times, where he is writing action figure reviews with all the skill and aplomb that made him famous here at dimfuture.net. Although he hasn’t outright said so, I fear this means the end of Men of Action at dimfuture, and we will all be the poorer for it. Actually, come to think of it, he may have outright said so. Well, we’ll see. I enjoyed Men of Action tremendously, and I know many of our readers did too, and I hope the Reverend’s writing at Superhero Times makes him into the vengeful, angry God many of us already know him to be.

Meanwhile, look for a new installment of the now pathetically long-suffering Twelve Days of Dimfuture, soon to reach ironic greatness in its own mounting irrelevance!

It’s officially 2007, and that means everything we’ve come to associate with the first heady days of a new year — fresh starts, false promises, and killer hangovers. Although real-life circumstances prevented me from completing Twelve Days of Dimfuture in a timely holiday fashion, first on my list of resolutions is to finish it up in January. The good Reverend will no doubt be continuing to bring you his particular brand of awesome entertainment, and we look forward to dimming your future even more in 2007 than we did in 2006! I hope everyone had a happy holiday, and may this year make last year look like a total piece of crap.

This is just a brief placeholder to let you know that you probably shouldn’t expect new posts from me until Friday or so. Real life sometimes takes priority over blogging, fun as it is, and I have some things I need to take care of. But I’m not abandoning this project — I’ll be lucky to finish it before the new year, but it will get finished!

So, if I don’t see you, Happy Holidays and all that.
