So anyway... What's this called?

[Ethan Rector @ethanrector]

So I'm not like, a BIG murder ballad fan, but there's a line in John Came Home, by Benjamin Dakota Rogers, that I think is so magnificent and gruesome and beautiful that I have to ask about it.

But here, it's not an implied or expected rhyme that's being played on, but a material violence that is concealed in a spiritual/metaphorical euphemism

And this reversal of usual metaphor logic (material sense refers to broader/ideal/spiritual sense) also strikes me as notable.

@A_H_F_B Are there better benefits in the Tumblr girls club?

@A_H_F_B @amandaknox Just change the side of the intrusion each night? Duh.

@jthevoice Clearly!

So... At least my subconscious is funny, even if he's an ass to me sometimes. 😏

Have been racing to finish my dissertation before my pregnant wife's September due date. The thought crossed my mind that a lot of stuff outside of family and dissertation has been "slipping through the cracks."

[Ethan Rector @ethanrector]

To which my subconscious promptly responded "Oh they're not 'slipping'. I'm dunking everything down those holes like I'm the mailman."

You know how sometimes you get the irresistible impulse to offer unsolicited opinions to the strangers around you? No? Well... Then it's good you know me tonight.

@fantasy74206723 @TrulyUhle @614_SKINS I mean... Not personally.

[Ethan Rector @ethanrector]

@TrulyUhle @fantasy74206723 @614_SKINS I tried handing it off to the alleged replacement commissioner. He didn't want it. 🤷‍♂️

@fantasy74206723 I'm told Najee Harris is not considered a big deal. #614Skins
