About the Substack

A collection of gonzo musings, opinions, and light exploration on culture, both high and low, popular and niche, the individuals that create it, and the beasts that haunt it, among other things.

About Yakubian Ape

Just another over-developed simian with a typewriter, too many thoughts, and too little time.
