Cannot wait to find and devour UFO Mushroom Invasion, being a big fan of anything cordyceps-related. Thank you for sharing these works with us.

I wonder what you'd think of the works of Shintaro Kago. Body horror on a factory-farm/industrial scale, that often takes my breath away to witness.

As one of the first folks to have received the honor of nonbinary affirmation surgery, years before it received that name, I too have had a long, long relationship with body horror as it's depicted in comics and films. I'm grateful Microcosm Publishing was up for publishing the little informational zine I wrote at last, "Bigenital Revolution," where I warned at one point, the process of such a surgery is to LIVE a personal version of body horror, with one's self as the canvas. While it was BEYOND worth it for me, like I said in the book, "body horror hits different when the gore is part of YOU."

But, I don't mean to shift the discussion to Trans Affirming Surgery As Body Horror Allegory. Merely a recommendation, if you choose to check it (or Kago's works) out.

Also: thank you for the work you're putting in to help anyone in Gaza. As the parable of the youngster saving beached starfish while an old man jeers about the uselessness of their efforts would say, "Well, I sure made a difference to that one."

So. Just a fellow soul in this ancient fishbowl, swimming by to say thank you, and that I'm proud of you. Sparkling through a world that makes it so easy to be eaten alive by despair is no easy feat.
