Ya'll ever feel like learning theory does to your brain what Lovecraftian eldritch horror is meant to do? (hexbear.net)

Why yes, there is a vast world devouring monster with its tendrils encircling all of us, and it's plainly visible once you notice it, and it's everywhere. But you come off as insane when you try to tell other people about it.

Is SCP-3125 an allegory for capitalism? Shit.

Any recommendations for someone who's unfamiliar with his work and wants to learn more and ruin their own sanity a bit more?

    His most circulated work, Society of the Spectacle, is both a book and a film by the same name. The film has alot of vivid visuals to help reinforce what's being gotten at in the written work.

    To be clear though, the film is not it's own work; it is the book as narration with scenes as visual aides. (I hope I described that adequately)

    CW for nudity and war footage though

    E: Also if I remember correctly the scenes don't quite match the narration in the English version of the film, and for a "correct" viewing you should watch French with English subtitles so that the timing is correct.
