NERD! Writer! Autistic! Red head! Queer! Non-Binary! I love audio dramas, cooking scifi-fantasy and horror!
Can someone explain why I can watch Welcome to Derry and listen to horror audio dramas but I find Pluribus really scary and sad?

Something I love about The Magnus Archives is the way that the villains commit to the bit.
Like, Jon is worried he doesn't have enough power to compel Elias, but then Elias's reaction to being compelled to speak the truth is to get all tingly because Eye Avatar. Of course he's an exhibitionist.

I don't take anything she says too seriously, but it is interesting how Greene is using gendered language to describe her alienation from MAGA.

I wish I was surprised but the thing is, all of these aren't about evidence--they're about feelings, and in this case feelings of fear (esp of irrelevance). So no, they'll never be happy because it's never enough.
(one doesn't actually deal with a non-evidence based fear by giving in to it)

Note how these awful people are getting exactly the exclusions of children that they demanded and *that still isn’t enough for them*: they demand everyone be delighted about it and kiss their arses for being brilliant.

I get the intention, but not everyone's mental illness is caused by neoliberalism and austerity. Some people need meds and/or diagnosis

'The Brood' - another dragon piece from this year. Also available in my shop with a layaway payment (if desired) over 3 months. Any big pieces like this I would wait to send in January anyway so as not to get lost in the melee of Xmas shipping!
