I really got the into Lovecraft and the adjacent genre “weird horror” genre over the COVID-19 lockdown. I like to think that H.P. was both a product of his time, and also uniquely racist. I wonder how his works would have changed had he not died as he began to realize the error of his ways later in life. I wonder him getting over his fears of just about everything would have impacted his storytelling

Also lmao this comic tho :data-laughing:
