NIGHTMARE TONIGHT: The Culture of Narcissism

In this special Patreon exclusive installment of Nightmare Tonight, I'll be talking about a book I recently read called The Culture of Narcissism by social critic Christopher Lasch. You might recall I briefly referenced this book in my analysis of Hiding in My Home. I wanted to include this as a special thank you to my patrons for sticking with me. If there are any other books you might be interested in seeing me discuss, let me know in the comments.

Weekly Update 1.18.21

Hey, folks!! Hope all is well on your end. I'd like to wish you a happy MLK day. On this day, I can't help but reflect upon the ongoing struggle for black equality in this country. It is unfortunately the case that we still have a long way to go. I was asked in a recent stream if I supported Black Lives Matter. The answer is yes. Of course I do.

I'm planning on checking out his documentary tonight:

Hiding in my Home: A Metatextual ARG

NEW VIDEO: What Is David Lynch's New Series About?

Last month, it was reported that the great David Lynch will be directing a new series for Netflix. IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN. A total of thirteen episodes have been planned, and Lynch is expected to begin filming in May of 2021. In this short installment, I just wanted to offer some speculation on what this new work might be about.  

More "content" coming soon. πŸ‘€

The following options include working titles I've just come up with, which should give you some indication as to what the video will be about. But allow me to elaborate below:

The first option is an analysis of the game Cyberpunk 2077. Specifically I will be conte...

the studio 😎

Hey, folks. Just rearranged my home office, so I thought I'd share with you my new setup. This might give you some insight as to my particular form of madness. Please don't shame me for my poor wire management. The books are there mainly as a kind of totem. At some point I thought putting them directly in front of me might compel me to read more (alas, it really hasn't).
