No.

Do you think Pence was confused momentarily when he heard Rippon’s Mother was going to be on CNN?

That would be one of the ones that isn’t reissued anymore, to be sure. If you were to read one story, read The Color Out of Space. That is one of the best, most famous, and least racist. He is somewhat important, in that many of his concepts have become part of the horror/sci-fi canon, and have been endlessly reworked…

I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone claim that Lovecraft’s racism is irrelevant to his work as a whole. To individual stories, sure. Nothing stands out as racist about The Colour out of Space (really his best story) and there’s no direct link between fear of racial others and fear of the unknown in the more abstract,…

Lovecraft has had a resurgence for two reasons: he’s one the greatest American prose writers (yes a racist, but at least a genius in addition to that unfortunate fact) of the 20th century (see Graham Harman’s recent book about HPL’s prose) and his work was created before modern copyright so that any idiot can (and…

“The Ballad of Black Tom” was a much better examination of racism in the U.S. through the lens of Lovecraft’s horror fiction, but I am still super excited for Jordan Peele to crush it with Lovecraft Country.

Lovecraft deserves his resurgence in popularity because he had been ingored for a long time, and when the current wave of adoration dies down a bit, he will simply be properly entrenched in the American genre fiction canon (which should be taught and taken more seriously as a rule) as a moderately singular and…

Lovecraft’s racism is part of his paranoia and fear of the world around him, while I can understand if it’s not to everyone’s tastes to deal with it, it’s wrong to take the stance that he has to now be ignored and stricken from pop culture.

I came here specifically looking for one.

Here’s the simple fact: The Washington Post did journalism the right way, and Jezebel did not.

“calling the Iraq War ‘one of the greatest foreign policy mistakes in American history’”

They weren’t arrested for a crime.

Uh... he wrote the fucking thing. Were they supposed to give an award for writing to someone who didn’t write the script? Were they supposed to give an award to a different show, because #equality? Are you saying they should have had a woman write the thing to begin with? We can have that discussion, but that really…

I guess my question is what should Miller have done? Not accept the award? Not accept the nomination? Not accept the job in the first place?

This girl is still a thing?

We called him Freddy pizza. That’s a good villain name I think

You’re lucky. My freshman year floor was an all girl floor with people who I guess never drank before. There was vomit all the time. Oh and this weird guy who used to come around and knock on people’s doors then make inappropriate requests if you let him in the room, like repeatedly asking you to sit on his lap. And…

Even if you could somehow remove the other context (like, for example, that Jamele Hill was absolutely correct), this is the White House press secretary openly calling for a private organization to fire a journalist for criticizing the President. That is fucking insane.

“Alexa, who is John Galt?”

She hasn’t lent him any credibility at all. She’s pretty clearly damaged his credibility with the only part of the electorate that trusts him, and she’s simultaneously used his credibility with that group to move the needle towards this becoming law.
