  3. HOWL O'WEEN (Halloween)

    Not only that, that's only one part of a bigger picture in which we're never privy too; we only see parts of the whole and even those parts are blurry little images. Also, the dramatic shift in tone from the beginning to it's end is masterfully paced and something that completely catches you off-guard but doesn't feel out of place. It organically moves into that direction and Wheatley does an amazing job guiding the viewer and the story to place.

  8. Recommend me a cool book!

    couple years ago Jeff Vandermeer did a post in Lovecraft and the need to move on: http://weirdfictionreview.com/2012/09/moving-past-lovecraft/
  9. Recommend me a cool book!

    I'm a big fan of weird and new weird; it's very versatile and flexible genre that contains so many different ideas and thought it can overwhelm a reader. I recommend reading Ligotti's interview on weird fiction review. In it he talks about the weird and how it works but through a horror filter. The Vandermeer's did a weird fiction anthology that's worth checking out; they also have a imprint in which they translate and publish weird fiction writers from different Scandinavian countries.

    Ah! Thank you!
  11. What do you think made you who you are today?

    Ah, yeah. I'm brown, so being a neo-fascist might be a misnomer, especially its current shaping and the shaping at its time. I did a post of my experience whole back ago if you're interested. Tells a part in my involvement and fascination with it.

  20. Depression sucks, but you are not alone.

    I've fought depression to deep depression to everyday melancholia to being heavily suicidal ever since I was a little child. These feelings were exasperated when I started taking Ritalin early on in my life. So right away, I'm living in a state where I'm drugged up and I'm drifting through life as some ghost or robot--because that's what Ritalin does--matched with a heavy depression that got heavier due to heavy racism and attacks (verbal and physical) on my gender--I'm genderqueer--messed me up for a good while. Add that to some of my friends killing themselves and I literally and figuratively having pick them up and the pieces. Life was and is hard but now at 27, I've learned to live with and integrate my everyday depression. I've learned how to use it to my advantage (turn it something good), to be able to speak to my friends about it openly and that it's okay to wallow in it every now and then. It's something that's hard at first but as I've gotten older and more used to myself and how I think and tick, I'm able to internalize my depression and do some damn good damage control. There are those few times where I get heavily depressed and as I've gotten older my heavy depression has gotten meaner, more mercenary. What I mean by that is: as I'm more comfortable with myself and able to see what makes me tick, and when I get into that head-space, I use myself against me. When I'm in my everyday depressive mood, there's more an abstraction to it, the feelings, but when I'm in heavily, it's more honed, more targeted. As if my heavy depression is able to attack me with these missiles--made up of past mistakes and how I view myself and so on--that are, again, honed and articulated and made to do massive damage against myself. It's hard to explain and evener weird that I talk about it as this somewhat separate entity but that's I view my depression.

    I also recommend Spawn on Me http://thespawnpointblog.com/spawn-episode-26-mikebrown-lived-brookago/ Gaming podcast from a PoC view. EDIT: I apologize for getting off topic

    I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend listening to this episode of Isometric: http://5by5.tv/isometric/18 They talk about the nuances and complexities of gamergate and the level of dissonance one has to have when they decided to verbal abuse someone online. It's a frightening listen because most of the crew are video gaming journalists, have been and continue to be harassed and it's just... Just listen
