Not (OP) but will make a point regardless

>it's so creepy and there are scary images of octopuses, it's so Lovecraftian

This frustrates fans of of H.P. Lovecraft as it overlooks the tone and themes of his work in favour of glorifying the pulpy, less significant ideas, such as vague descriptions of giant space monsters.

The term is 'Thomist' you dilettante

>>7559681
