Re: Autism, Depression, Love

Well I've been making attempts, here and there, to change things. I start getting out more, talking to more people, but whenever I get close to hitting new territory, I have a mini panic attack, shut...

Re: Who will lead me to Lovecraft?

I recommend "The Mound", written with Zelia Bishop (who I think was a real person?). Its one of my favorites because it takes place in an unusual location for Lovecraft: The southwest desert, and has...

Re: Autism, Depression, Love

Thanks for bringing that Morrissey song to my attention, QCrisp. Ive been slowly working through his post Smiths work, starting with Bona Drag. I wish he'd get in touch with Vini Reilly and get some...

Re: Autism, Depression, Love

Well, I think I can chalk up that little outburst as a Dark Night side effect; being in a more equanimous place, I can see that the situation may be TEMPORARILY hopeless, but the one constant is that...

Re: Autism, Depression, Love

Hmm. I'm sure there are girls out there that would LOVE to meet someone into weird fiction. Not a lot, but we are at an extreme end of the bell curve. With 7 billion people on the planet, half of...

Re: Ligottian sitcom - Too Many Cooks!

The latent nihilism of Seinfeld rendered into tangible flesh, to be carved and served on a cannibal's plate. But of course, the cannibal is just a puppet too. Damn, theres so much going on in this!

Re: Autism, Depression, Love

I don't know man. I used to work out quite a bit, and it helped, girls noticed, but the autistic Reich in my head always held me back. Like many autistic people, I have overlapping developmental...

Autism, Depression, Love

I recently kicked SSRI meds, and a lot of things became clear to me. It was truly psychedelic, having things fall into place like this. I realize I do sometimes need something to manage the negative...

Re: Preferred Mode of Oblivion

I've accepted that I need a little distraction and escape; every night can't be a psychedelic death trip, so i've taken to snuff tobacco. Goddamn, that is THE way to take tobacco, hands down.

Re: Atheist corner (or, Religion after the holocaust)

Re: Atheist corner (or, Religion after the holocaust)

Shamanism is a loaded term, invented by Westerners. I think the Native Americans really have the lock on techniques that actually work ( i.e look at the rates of alcoholism among those who actually...

Re: Antinatalism- The Greatest Taboo

I'm only in favour of anti-natalism if its anti-natalism by SLEAZE. If we got to the point where every man and woman was just too busy having wasteful, unnatural, sleazy sex to bother with having...

Re: On Ligotti's "Dark Buddhism"

This just occurred to me: In Ligotti's universe as presented in MWINYD, the ONLY was to truly rebel against nightmarish obscenity of "the grand scheme of things" is to do the near impossible task of...

Re: Ligottian humor

This is great, thanks. I do wonder though, whether Buddhist dogma obscures the nature of enlightened people. Some highly realized fellows, monks even, are some of the jolliest people I've ever seen....

Re: Favorite JD Album

Right on about Barney, I've seen some New Order live vids that were tragicomic. He's a genius in the studio though.

I always thought Day of the Lords was kind of funky. Shrinebuilder (metal...

Re: On The Chameleons (UK)

Re: Ligottian humor

Since a great and swollen Autumn is here, when do you guys and gals read Ligotti? I usually end up reading him at night, after working on music all day, but then I often can't sleep. I was thinking...

Re: Technical meditation

Weird, I just finished reading 'When You Hear the Singing, You Will Know It Is Time", and almost couldn't fall asleep, because I kept thinking of leathery trap doors!

Re: Technical meditation

Re: Ligottian humor

I find his depictions of artists to be both funny and frightening in their accuracy. "The Clown Puppet" reads like a strange sketch episode, especially the opening about various meats advertised on...

Re: Technical meditation

One good thing about the Dark Night is that there are lots of weird sensations to practice on. I can sit with eyes closed and get into a place where a TV snow-like background of blue and white...
