I think this is more about speeding up the car journey from London to SW England rather than funnelling tourists to Stonehenge specifically. Although they aren’t mentioned in this article, I would put a lot of the blame for this (and previous) shambles at the door of English Heritage, who have made a total codsup of…

Tampons.

And I thought everyone agreed to retire “pupper” and “doggo.”

Aaron Carter is a legend?

I’d like to take a moment to promote my favourite Robin Hood film:

Looks like Bethesda’s engine isn’t the only thing to be left behind by modern gaming and its culture. This sort of thing:

Tinnitus is awful. Normal conversation becomes a chore. Trying to sleep at night becomes more difficult - is that me, or is that noise something I need to go and track down? Telephone conversation? Hahahaha. Send me an email/text.

Don’t these people read the internet? Don’t they look at YouTube, and see the reactions to similar announcements? Don’t they do market research? They should be looking very hard at their sales and marketing department right now.

Yorkshire.

I associate Baphomet with the Knights Templar rather than with the Satanic Temple. Much as I admire my fraters and sorors of that persuasion, they’re dead wrong with this one.

The HPL drinking game: every time he uses the word cyclopean. I’ll swear it’s in every story - he bloody loved that word.

Everyone seems to forget ‘the stars are right’ bit. As the man himself was a big astronomy nerd I’ve spent a lot of time staring at the star charts for the relevant period mentioned in the tale, from the position of various places mentioned. TBH there’s nothing planetary that you can hang your hat on (but why would it…

I think that’s sardonic understatement. Sadly HPL was a huge ass. But so were (are) many artists...it raises the whole question of whether we dismiss their works in toto as well as dismissing their fugly cultural/social beliefs. I’ve no answer to offer, it has to be an individual’s choice.

Pretty much the whole of the Dragonborn expansion to Skyrim is a questline devoted to Hermaeus Mora, who is definitely a ‘separated at birth’ sibling of Yog-Sothoth.
