Rappy Reads Like Lambs to the Slaughter: Chapter 3, Part 1-Wherein Psychology is Bashed as “the Occult”

Apologies for a rather short page today, but I haven’t been feeling very well, slept the afternoon away, and would rather be doing anything else than reading this tripe.

Now that Like Lambs to the Slaughter has dedicated a chapter on “the Humanist Conspiracy” to the supposed evils of education, it’s only fitting that this chapter, “Your Teacher the Occultist?” is less about teaching and more about piling blame on clinical psychology on the rise of the occult.

Rappy’s Book Reviews: The Field Guide to North American Monsters

Hey there, dear viewers. I figured I’d do something a little different than usual and review a title that is not RPG related. Gasp-shock-horror, I know! This probably won’t be a very regular feature, but this won’t be the last you’ll hear of non-RPG book reviews here at RRB, either. Anyway, our first book will be The Field Guide to North American Monsters: Everything you Need to Know About Encountering Over 100 Terrifying Creatures in the Wild by W. Haden Blackman.
