Fuck this so much. How long before all of our media runs through one or two companies? It's not just bad for entertainment. It's dangerous when only a few voices control the flow of information and ideas. Look at how timid and lifeless the news industry has become.

Socialism is a scare word they've hurled at every advance the people have made. Socialism is what they called public power, social security, deposit insurance, and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for anything that helps all people.

THE FLESH KING, the sequel to THE PALE HOUSE DEVIL, is now available for preorder. If you're interested in picking it up, please considering preordering it. It might seem like a small thing, but preorders get books a lot more visibility on sites and help them stay in print. Thanks.
