  1. Why am I not surprised.

  2. Typical, it’s always someone else’s fault. Revenge is not just best served cold, but by stupid too. “This is all your fault!” Which is wrong, but in his head, it’s right.

    1. It’s also been heavily hinted he has already been brain washed by the zombie worshiping cult.

      1. Which, no doubt, made easier because of that under-lying feeling. People are always looking for a scape-goat…

    2. I don’t know if you got my callback by intent or not, but it’s great to see almost the same words echoed! https://www.zombieranchcomic.com/comic/203-breaking-worst/

  3. Honestly, probably the first time he’s ever taken control of and done ever in his life. There’s a reason why they kept him. Give a dog that’s been beat all its life a whiff of conference and control, you got a problem.

  4. Imagine his surprise when he stabs a pillow. 😜

  5. He isn’t in control, RC – he’s probably drugged to the very dilated eyeballs, probably with Datura. Back on p.443, Eustace is shown holding a Mojave Rattlesnake on a stick while the Brujefe milks it into a glass. Mojave venom A is a paralytic neurotoxin, like tetrodotoxin. Tetrodotoxin was thought to be part of the legendary Haitian “zombie powder”. The other part was Datura, which contains scopalamine, which messes with memory and concentration, and is supposed to render victims docile and suggestible.
    The question is, where did he get his current dose, and did a little drone whisper in his ear?

539 – A Knife In The Dark (END OF EPISODE 22)

Happy Holidays, all! That's a wrap (heh) for Episode 22 just in time for a Christmas cliffhanger! Hope we don't twist the knife too much...

See y'all in 2025 when Zombie Ranch continues!

So how y’all doing?

Feels like the past few blog posts have been me, me, me… which they usually are since this represents my lil’ corner of the website. We had a near miss recently where we were going to go out to dinner for Dawn’s birthday and pushed it back a day due to reservation issues, then on the day of my dad called up and said he was feeling sick so probably shouldn’t go. We dropped one of our COVID test kits off on his porch that night and lo and behold he tested positive, which sent the family into panic mode all over again and I was playing operator for the concerned texts and phone calls. At this time he seems to be over the worst of it and getting better, hopefully with no long-term complications in his future. As far as I know he was masking up and taking precautions but he likes to run his errands in person and made some trips to the grocery store and post office and such a few days before his symptoms. So anyhow that’s about my dad, right, not me per se? But it shows how raw everyone in my family still is. Not a good time to go AWOL, for sure. When my uncle didn’t show up for a scheduled zoom call the troops were dispatched to get eyes on and make sure he was okay. Both these gents are getting close to 80 years old but they’re still up and about and very independent-minded, which makes for an interesting balance for me of wanting to give them space but also needing to make sure we’re not out of touch for too long since they’re now living alone. But yeah, some of you have already been responding occasionally with your own “status reports” and sometimes it’s just therapeutic to share, so, how’s 2022 treating y’all so far?
