The thing about Lovecraft is not the horror but the dread. Eldritch horror should not be gore but rather this pervasive feeling that something is so awful and so wrong and we’re losing hope because reality is being torn apart.

Very Excited to see this.

The Far-Right has some of the most disturbing individuals among their ranks.

What I never understood is, if the left in the US is as prone to violence as the right is (as the right-wing-media never stops to proclaim), why are there no left-wing terrorists, no mass-shootings in the name of the Dems or Obama? There are no armed neo-Stalinists or if there are they seem to be rather quiet.

I’ve been reading about this QAnon shit for years now and not a fucking thing that they’ve said was going to happen has or or is even remotely close to happening. QAnon believers are like the bottom dwellers of bat shit crazy conspiracy theories. Even Flat Earth conspiracy theorists don’t want to associate themselves w…

QAnon:  The Dumb Before The Storm.

That is your prerogative to not care and to send signal to victims that your assessment of the importance of their experience depends on the political environment in which it is made. I would just say you can vote for Biden, and want him to win without doing that though.

Yes, this comment section is astounding, and not in a good way.

It’s absolutely disgusting seeing the number of people jumping right down the Republican playbook now that it’s politically inconvenient to have morals/standards.

I’m aware of the army of women who came forward to vouch for Kavanaugh.  The only other accusation against Kavanaugh that I’m aware of was Deborah Ramirez, who claims Kavanaugh exposed himself to her, at a party, with a bunch of other people as witnesses.  Whatever you think of that allegation, it is much different…

I can’t imagine “lack of pattern of behavior” “not discovered during previous background checks” “victim not willing to name accuser in legal documents” were part of that playbook because all of those do not apply to his case.

We must be reading a different comment section if you think the message is “all women” are “to be believed.”  Because what I see is “Well, actually, here are a bunch of different reasons I am choosing not to believe Tara Reade, and I don’t care that they are copy and pasted from the Brett Kavanaugh Defense Playbook.”

SAY IT.

Exactly - I want to believe her and the 10 other people she seemed to tell about it at the time, her mother, brother, friend, neighbor!! - oh and isn’t it just possible that a woman can say someone makes them uncomfortable without being ready to disclose they were molested by someone - and now that the world is moving…

The primary actually is not over. Biden has not secured the nomination.

Okay, but she says she told her brother, friend, and mother. The former two have corroborated it, and there is contemporary evidence of the latter discussing the allegation. And her neighbor has now come forward to say Reade talked about it decades ago. So...

How in the world does Biden having been accused of sexual assault somehow reflect poorly on Bernie Sanders supporters?

This seems to have become a popular talking point with liberals desperate to dismiss these allegations, and it is bullshit.

I want to believe Tara Reade. I really do...
