I’m reading poetry.
…and educating myself on Amy Klobuchar, s/o @Lazstradamus

Nothing wrong with reading all kinds of different opinions, or having some conservative thoughts. I’m not a fan of Ben Shapiro - but I also think it’s funny everyone assumes he is an alt right trump supporter when he couldn’t be further from that.
Here’s some poetry from a popular contemporary American poet
The power of love is a curious thing
Make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a hawk to a little white dove
More than a feeling that’s the power of love
Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream
Stronger and harder than a bad girl’s dream
Make a bad one good make a wrong one right
Power of love that keeps you home at night
You don’t need money, don’t take fame
Don’t need no credit card to ride this train
It’s strong and it’s sudden and it’s cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
That’s the power of love

Thanks for that. All of it.
I’m now reminiscing of sitting in the living room as a young boy, in front of my parents 24” console zenith, rewatching Back to the Future for the 27th time that week.

If I was remotely good at golf I would duel you!
Could be fun merch though. M-avid vs Ja-liath.
I believe you are a big guy like over 6’4”? I might be close to 12inches shorter.

Also, what is Vanilla doing? That “dance” looks like he’s trying to shake a buzzard off his back.

Look, for sure. But I glanced at the latest topics list and didn’t see the title with a quick scroll. I should have known that the Refuge would have talked about 30+ other topics in the interim thus burying this thread way down. Rookie move 
, I love this place.

This has been the strangest part of the ED anti-Poe take, to me. Sure, my boy Edgar is famous for the Raven as well as many other poems. But he’s also very famous for writing horror short stories, which, last time, I checked, remain very popular in modern society.
Maybe if the football team were the Baltimore Telltale Hearts ED would be more aware of this?

Maybe because the narrative isn’t actually “obvious” or based in “facts”, but rather, completely subjective feelings, thoughts, and beliefs that are perhaps more ignorant than they seem at first glance, masked by big words and long sentences? Just my 2c.
