I used to be fond of the math, probably still have Gardener's analysis, but after learning about Carroll's proclivities the whole thing got a lot slimier. Now it really does seem to go better with disgusting Tim Burton and all that creepy degenerate vibe.

The epic Alice game by American McGee was a disturbing hint at what might really be under the surface of institutions and pop media (including fairy tales, esp Disney-ized) and personally made me very sorry for whatever she'd been through herself as a youth. As I learn more about the real monsters out there, I'm retroactively horrified that so much has been in front of us all this time and we collectively never followed anything out to its logical conclusions. We do have more than we know. We have had more than we knew.
