Ahh. The HP Lovectaft school of writing.

The indescribable horror shuffled forth which I will now describe in intricate detail for the next page and a half.

THE VERY SIGHT OF IT DROVE ME MAD

let me tell you all about it

It took me a really really embarrassingly long time to learn this lesson. Like wayyyyyyy too long.

Is it weird to switch between the phone app and the website and see someone has you blocked on the phone app and think, "who are you? Have I ever actually directly interacted with you?"

Just me?

If it was truly the Lovecraft School of Writing then it would start with, "It was indescribable" and then proceed to describe what it didn't look like for three paragraphs.

I don't appreciate @payn trying to draw me into a thread I had no interest in even opening. I see what you're doing. . . and I won't fall for it!

I think it's more weird that blocking on the phone app doesn't also block on web. You (generic) don't want to see them on your phone, but sitting in front of a computer it's OK? What, do they post big images that you can't enjoy on your phone or something?

Hilariously, HPL himself rarely did that. Reading his stuff in order of writing, I got the sense he realized it didn't work as well when the horror was described, so he came up with ways to imply the horror instead, which worked much better. But his imitators are less good at that...

"Phone Me is much more judgemental and bitchy than sitting-at-the-desk me, I'll have you know! What are you, some kind of communist?"
