Fact: since our Queen died in 2022, no further Brit eggs have been laid, meaning no new British people have been born.

‘Six words or _fewer_.”

A meme. There’s a skull at the top, followed by the words ‘WRITE A HORROR STORY IN SIX WORDS OR LESS’

DISEASE OF FINITUDE IS LIVE TODAY!

Over the past year we have been working on the antilogos press inaugural charity zine – a curated amalgam of experimental microfiction inspired by the oeuvre of David Cronenberg.

Disease of Finitude is live today! If you love the work of David Cronenberg, this charity anthology should get you salivating. Or producing some kind of discharge anyway. You should get that looked at. Link below!

People are already calling the new Wolverine game woke. I assume it's because he doesn't say anything homophobic in the trailer.

Jim Horlock @horlockwarlock.bsky.social · 12d

That's what they want you to think!
