Fundamental Islam finally goes too far!

I’m SO enraged about this, you have no idea. And it happened in Seattle, of all places!

Fundies! Bah! It’s not enough that they try to prevent girls from getting an education, cover women’s faces, and consequently subject Chanel cosmetics to vast overpricing in the finer Gulf department stores.

No.

Now they’ve finally done it. Forcing this gorgeous creature to cover up! Congrats to Archie on finding photographic evidence of this outrageous suppression of natural beauty.

Indiana Jones and the Call of Cthulhu: complete text

Cthulhu motivational poster

What do you people think? Is he going after Cthulhu this time?

It’s just too bloody perfect, you know. The protagonist in The Call of Cthulhu was an aging archaeologist with a reputation for doing things his own way. With his trusty buddy, Inspector Legrasse, he crosses the globe, attempting to puzzle out the mysterious connection between a precious religious artifact, a cannibalistic cult of Louisiana swamp dwellers, and a vicious tribe of Greenland Esquimaux.

Blowing away forever all pretence to cool I may once have possessed, I have re-edited Howard Phillips Lovecraft‘s immortal Gothic tale The Call of Cthulhu, and placed at its heart a certain Midwestern academic who is, himself, no stranger to the strange.

Saturday Squid!

Really, when it comes to the ol’ Calamari, can you ever get enough?

Here at the ol’ raincoaster blog, we’re partial to our Calamari Grande, and our Octopodia Grande, as perhaps you may have noticed. And our accomplices from around the globe have been feeding our obsession lately, as perhaps you’ve also noticed, you smart cookie, you.

But wait, there’s MORE.

And MORE.

And songs!

Cthulhu couture!

Our favorite fashion fuggers have delved deeply into the murky waters which are trends and look at what they’ve fished up from the bottom: fishy fashions; Cthulhu couture; R’lyeh wraps. They’re what everyone is wearing to the formal hoe-down at the Esoteric Order of Dagon Hall (no relation to Anthony Michael Hall).

See for yourself, if you dare. Behold John G’halia-no’s wakame sake-inspired Kelp Me, I’m Falling:

Kelp me I’m falling

And, if you still retain sanity and will, scroll downward to view what every halfbred Deep One will be wearing to her prom, or her Transition, whichever comes first. Behold the Chitin Blossom, from B’hyll Bass.
