He's an appalling racist if that helps. Literally compared black people to apes IN STORY.

I believe Lovecraft used gorillas as his metaphor.

I just bought and read some Lovecraft stories, coincidentally. The Rats in the Walls is also a great one.
I was actually reminded to read his work because of the Vaselines song called Lovecraft, although I have no idea if it has any relation to the writer really

ok maybe you should read a couple of stories just because he's a cultural milestone [i hope this makes sense in english] but i dont expect your life will change after that. "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward" was a good one in my opinion.

@batlord me i would 100/100 times prefer poe or guy de maupassan over lovecraft.

What exactly is mindfulness?
Mindfulness also involves acceptance, meaning that we pay attention to our thoughts and feelings without judging them—without believing, for instance, that there's a “right” or “wrong” way to think or feel in a given moment.
