I have been meaning to get into his work for years. I guess this is the year. Do you know where a good start would be?

Ligotti mainly writes short stories, so any of the collections (My Work Is Not Yet Done, Grimscribe, Songs of a Dead Dreamer, etc.). My favorite of their works (and the one I started with) is The Conspiracy against the Human Race but that's more philosophy.

Hater by David Moody is kinda like a rage zombie book that i remember being pretty decent, and Skin by Patrick Logan was alright, that's kind of a "omg snowed in and terrible things are happening" sort of vibe

also both of those books are first in their respective series of books

Someone will hand me an Imodium and get me pants from the spare pants closet. There is no escape, work has all the exits and contingencies covered.

You light the incendiaries, I’ll grab your stapler.

E: there was actually a fire at work a couple of years ago. Half the floor was filled with smoke and we had to evacuate laterally so I am prepared for the above scenario.

Closing your scrubs in the window of the passenger side of your best friend’s ride so they flap in the wind because you got up late and forgot to throw them in the dryer so you’re turbo air drying them while they drive you to work certainly sounds like a thing I’d do but fortunately it has never come to that.

Your move, creep.



there was recently an owl by my bedroom hooting and when I googled about it I learned the owls in my area mainly hoot like this as a predatorial warning, basically being like "this is my turf, gently caress off"

made me a little nervous going out those nights :ohdear:

like a year before that an owl flew out of a tree and right over my head and I thought it was cool as gently caress but now I realize it was probably a warning lol

I was out at the end of my long driveway at night, looking up at the stars, and this black silent blot came at my face, and then swooped away real close. With no noise. Maybe it was hallucination, maybe it was an owl.

So cool! I love owls :3:

We had an African Grey parrot when I was growing up. Greys are excellent mimics. He had a couple kinds of crow calls and several different owl hoots in his repertoire.
