H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos is a shared universe far larger and more terrifying than that of humanity, where ancient, malevolent beings known as the Great Old Ones slumber in the depths of space or time. After Lovecraft's death, the Mythos has been expanded and developed by many authors, including August Derleth, Clark Ashton Smith, and Robert E. Howard. These and many other authors have helped to flesh out the Mythos into a rich and complex Dark Universe.

Aww! It's his cat, African-Americanman.

Your poke at his racism is intelligent and clever. Well played, friend.

A pet name like that really wasn't a big deal back then, but old HP was extra. You hardly have to read between the lines.

LOL, "white" wasn't even good enough. New England white? Nope. Your family had to be of the right "stock". Read what his wife had to say about his rage over living in NYC with the foul Irish, Jews and other groups. Haters gonna hate.

Indeed. That's his name. Exactly that. ๐Ÿ‘
