TIL H.P. Lovecraft, who was born in 1890, was a racist. Shocking!

Yeah, he's definitely a huge part of a lot of today's literature - not saying that's a bad thing, but I've noticed a lot of people incorporating elements of his work into their "conspiracy research" - either intentionally or ignorantly, either way it's frustrating!

I read the Colour from Out of Space VERY quickly, to get a feel for a trope that another author was incorporating, but that's all to be honest.

I read 3/4 of a fat greatest compilation in highschool. I think I borrowed it from a friend. I always meant to finish it, buy it if I had to, but a few years later I forgot about it and now a few decades later I couldn't care less. I got enough of the pop culture knowledge.
It was weird but not scary.
Reading Dawn Of The Dead was addictive and was one of the only books to ever freak me out (in highschool).
