Like the cover of a punctured football the gaudy, archaic costume began to wrinkle and wilt, the golden-tasseled fez toppled forward above the masked face and the black-silk handkerchief itself dropped downward, revealing the unfleshed countenance of a grinning skull.

less instances of "manager" than I thought there would be in a WIP about corporate warfare, but there is this good bit about an abandoned company town
That Ciudad del Frenteojo was more lifeless than Iquitos was a given—it was more lifeless than anything that had life at all. Many of the buildings’ doors yawned open, the totally empty spaces within echoing with Liana and Eric’s footsteps from outside. But the lifelessness here was evident in ways beyond the obvious, down to the bones of what construction there was. There was no evidence of life in the city’s downtown. None of the mixture of styles or clashing improvisations that came about when many people came to live together from happenstance. Life itself had never had the opportunity to make its stamp upon the place and blossom in its unpredictability. Nothing like Iquitos’ blend of sturdy indigenous wood-built structures mixed in with the European-style architecture of later capitalists. Every building was geometrically planned to exist exactly where it was, placed like pieces on a game-board by the whims of a corporate middle manager, whose actions themselves were dictated by the higher-ups who would never be closer than thousands of miles away from this city they were funding. It was all board-approved, shareholder-recommended, focus-tested down to the humblest corner. Functional and architecturally undaring, nice to look at and quickly forgotten.

📚💙 Notes on Writing Weird Fiction (Essay by H.P. Lovecraft)

After reading "Shadow Out of Time" I was stuck on #Lovecraft like a medical leech. His 1933 essay about his writing process gives great insight into the man & his work.

Just finished listening to the audiobook of 'There is No Antimemetics Division'. Amazing book, with lots of original ideas, or ideas that seem original anyway, which are just as good. Glad I bought this, because I'll certainly want to read it again. #reading #horror #weirdfiction

was thrilled to see this word pop up in one of my most inarguably overwritten paragraphs

that bit self-deprecation aside: I like this one a lot
Had Liana any presence of mind at all she may have been mutely surprised by the sight of Machu Picchu. She’d always had an image in mind of towering, impersonal ziggurats; instead, it was more noticeably modern and relatable than what she’d expected, a once-bustling citadel of stone clustered together on this olympian mountaintop. In spirit, however it lacked none of the grandeur that she had already imagined; misty as it was, it felt peopled by the shifting whirling spirits of the long-dead, echoing sounds of the mountain wind like their despairing howls in the throes of Old World disease. So strangely haunted that, gazing down at the fog-choked valleys below, she swore she saw vast spectral tentacles, half-glimpsed monstrous forms swirling in the windswept mists. The emotional resonance of civilization-scale trauma made manifest, the last doomed terror of an empire in collapse. As if the emotional stain it wrought upon the earth remained to this day. As if it echoed with the resonance of recent events, the murky question of some inconceivable disaster in that other hemisphere looming over these towering Andes.

Loved D&D 5e supplement Cthulhu by Torchlight by @mearls.bsky.social and @chaosium.bsky.social. Inspired me to read Chambers’ The King in Yellow via @gutenberg.org. Can’t wait to play Exalted Assembly of the Feline Court warlock.
