    I don’t know if anyone has suggested it to him, but perhaps feeding her a magic stew which would temporarily blind her for say, a day, might be punishment enough.

      I thought the blinding stew thing was just a joke to scare the kid, but now that I know it’s real, I’m equally terrified and intrigued at the same time.

            They might have just edited the Perpetual Stew page. Or they could have just edited the page source to make it say whatever they want and take a screenshot.

        I still don’t know who is responsible, but someone I know has not only signed me up for his monthly physical joke mail (I’m up to three, expecting four now), but they’re paying nearly twice the monthly Patreon subscription to have them mailed to me internationally in Canada.

        The first one was a awkward family photo that read something along the lines of, “New family has moved to [my street here]. Please don’t talk to us. It’s nothing personal, we’re just in a religion that makes us not want you to talk to us.”

        My wife and I had a hell of a time pinpointing where it even originated until finally finding a somewhat obscure Twitter post, using reverse image search on the postcard.
