the bomber sequence was my white whale, i saw it randomly on MTV's liquid television without any accompanying information back in the 90's. finally figured it out a couple years back. something about zombies chasing after you in a WWII era bomber flying through space apparently captivated young me.

Everything is really scary and horrible, and on the utter flipside, we made these really adorable valentines.
The dissonance of seeing horror, then posting "hey buy some cute valentines" is making me feel loopy.
But also nice things persist despite terror? Ugh idk.
