Although this channel is mostly about H. P. Lovecraft and his stories...
I wanted to point out at a certain quote from Hollow Knight's Shrine of Believers that does a good job at sending an optimistic message that contradicts Cosmicism and the Lovecraftian "indifferent"-¿ness?:

They must know it was the rats; the slithering, scurrying rats whose scampering will never let me sleep; the daemon rats that race behind the padding in this room and beckon me down to greater horrors than I have ever known; the rats they can never hear; the rats, the rats in the walls.

"The Nameless City" is an early example of Lovecraft's technique of mixing references from history, literature and his own fiction to create a persuasive background for his horrors.
A single paragraph mentions Lovecraft's fictional Arab poet, an actual 5th century philosopher, a writer from the Middle Ages, a legendary Persian king, and one of Lovecraft's favorite fantasy authors:

In the darkness there flashed before my mind fragments of my cherished treasury of daemonic lore; sentences from Alhazred the mad Arab, paragraphs from the apocryphal nightmares of Damascius, and infamous lines from the delirious Image du Monde of Gautier de Metz. I repeated queer extracts, and muttered of Afrasiab and the daemons that floated with him down the Oxus; later chanting over and over again a phrase from one of Lord Dunsany's tales--"The unreverberate blackness of the abyss."

That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die.

After Y2K, the end of the world had become a cliché. But who was I to talk, a brooding underdog avenger alone against an empire of evil, out to right a grave injustice? Everything was subjective. There were only personal apocalypses. Nothing is a cliché when it's happening to you.

Here's a "so basically..." simple summary of the story since I know no one's gonna read it:
So basically this old dying man is bored and tired of the mundane waking world and travels to different beautiful places in his dreams.
One night in a dream he sees an overgrown wall with a mysterious gate and is curious in what lies beyond; however, he cannot open the gate.
In another dream, he travels to a city and finds ancient text suggesting that beyond the gate lies only beauty and peace; while some other texts suggest the opposite that there are horrors and pain.
The name of a drug which is said to allow people to travel beyond the gate is also written; So the man swallows the drug and finds out in his dream that the door is indeed open, and that both the statements in the texts were true. Since there is both peace in the vast empitness, and a sense of dread that is the void of death.
(He dies)

An H. P. Lovecraft Encyclopedia suggests that the theme of "Ex Oblivione"—that nothingness is preferable to life—was derived from Lovecraft's reading the philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer.
Lovecraft expressed similar sentiments in non-fiction work at the time, writing in In Defense of Dagon, "There is nothing better than oblivion, since in oblivion there is no wish unfulfilled."

I knew that all sights and glories were at an end; for in that new realm was neither land nor sea, but only the white void of unpeopled and illimitable space. So, happier than I had ever dared hoped to be, I dissolved again into that native infinity of crystal oblivion from which the daemon Life had called me for one brief and desolate hour.

It is the end. They have come down through the gloaming from the stars. Now all is over, and beyond the Arinurian streams, we shall dwell blissfully in Teloe.

Color Out of Space [2019] from Richard Stanley featuring Nicholas Cage on one of his best performances, in the best direct Lovecraft adaptation I've seen yet.
Here's my version of an introduction to this film:
cosmic confusion, brutal insanity, mental degradation, majestic horrors and a fear of the unknown are forced upon Nathan's collapsing family; while picturesque cinematography, beautiful color grading, unsettling music and masterful acting performances are gifted to the viewer.

Most horrible of all sights are the little unpainted wooden houses remote from travelled ways, usually squatted upon some damp, grassy slope or leaning against some gigantic outcropping of rock. Two hundred years and more they have leaned or squatted there, while the vines have crawled and the trees have swelled and spread.

Some researchers believe Lovecraft's Nyarlathotep was inspired by Nikola Tesla.
