The Cultural Gutter is a website dedicated to thoughtful writing about disreputable art. The site is updated every Thursday afternoon. Carol Borden, Angela Englert, Sachin Hingoo, Alex MacFadyen, and Beth Watkins probe science fiction, draw out the best in comics, stare deeply into the screen, sink their fangs into horror, dally with romance, speedrun their brains on videogames and explore so much more. Our Guest Stars shine here. Thanks to Gutter aesthetic director Brian Kirby for all his swank art. Thanks to EJ Lee for providing the fantastic art we used in the Cultural Gutter book. The Cultural Gutter's signature nail polishes, "Disreputable," and, "Disreputable 2: Hellcat," were created by Andrea Evans of MPZ Cosmetics. MPZ Cosmetics also teamed up with Dill McKinley to recreate the classic fragrance, Cornichon by Dill McKinley for Gutterthon 2021. We've migrated to a new server. We're adding in lost pictures and reformatting as fast as we can. Thanks for your patience with older posts! We do not accept unsolicited pitches. Follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Mastodon, Bluesky, and Post as @culturalgutter.

Thank you for the very kind mention! I am getting mail from Facebook users all over the world today. Most wonder “are you really creepy?” I guess I should preserve a little mystery about that for them 🙂 Any credit for the effectiveness of http://www.takethislollipop.com is due to the director Jason Zada, whose vision I am proud to be a small part of. And btw it creeped ME out, too!

You are very welcome. In order to preserve your mystique, I won’t add that after our few interactions, I figured you were probably just very intent on deciding what kind of baked good each fan would prefer and personally delivering it to them 🙂
And, really, I can’t imagine much creepier than being stalked by yourself.
(I’ve added Jason Zada to the tags, thanks!)
