David Nickle's "Don't mention the war." -some thoughts on H.P. Lovecraft and race

I brought up the topic (or race in Lovecraft's fiction) early and affably in the panel, and just a little later but also affably, Mr. Joshi shut it down with a familiar canard: Lovecraft's racism and xenophobia must be viewed in the context of Lovecraft's considerably less-enlightened time.

Honestly torn

What's more core to horror, racism or misogyny?

Heard Nameless complaining

Which generally means Ibid is trying to get her to play with him and she can't get by. When I went up, she came bounding around the corner happily, saw it was me, reversed and lept over Ibid to her closet.

Who was she expecting?

Perhaps

We are the first.
