    I still have one of those artificial hands that grow fingernails. My dog brought it home a while back. I never knew where it came from until listening to this.

      so fun - it feels like Borges oversees the animation of a Frankenstein-ghost-mutant-baby discreetly made out of the mangled flesh of Umberto Eco, Kafka, and of course Lovecraft

      After they hooked up with Amazon they lost their edge. Good to have Prime though, with the closet or junk-pile option as well.

    Is it an allegory of cancer?

      Only that most hideous of cancers; the one that insists that we love and defend it, that categoric malignancy that we call "life"

      @@joelclark5458 I think Thomas Ligotti is a genius and that his works are beautiful, but after listening to and reading a bunch of his works, a wave of melancholy washed me away and I decided to avoid his works for the foreseeable future.
