secrets of the grocker

new to tumblr, but we ball

the name’s chip. they/he/she preferred. I’ve ridden this big blue orb of a planet around the sun a meager 17 times; in other words I am a minor so everybody chill

i tend to get crazy interested in a topic and then drop it a few weeks to a few months later, so my tags and reblogs are going to be all over the map. but I’m into classic literature, theatre, music, textile arts all year round

I dabble in writing when I’ve got the time, and I may post the occasional poem or new idea. I’m not the type of guy to write a novel, though you may see me drop some story ideas now and then

music and performing arts are kind of my whole life. I’ve been an actor in 11 onstage productions, during one of which I was also an orchestra member. I’ve acted in two indie short films. I play tuba, baritone/euphonium as my main instruments, though I also sing. I frequently noodle around with acoustic guitar, electric bass, alto sax, and piano as well

some rapid fire interests in no particular order: music history, education, queer history, bones (I don’t know either), Shakespeare, D&D, sewing and embroidery, cosplay, jazz, clowns, bluegrass, drawing, trees, jesters, rocks and gemstones, mimes, linguistics

this blog is going to be a mess, I can already tell. But hey, if the world’s gonna burn, I’m gonna roast some marshmallows and make the best s’mores this town has ever seen. I plan to just goof around, indulge in my silly interests, nerd out about what I love and really just grock out. You know what they always say: grock out or clock out. I’m gonna grock out though because I’m the grocker and that’s kind of my whole thing

this is in perfect iambic meter and sounds like the first line of a weird poem

Rule #2

Don’t ever hug a lobster when you see one on the street,

For decorum is essential when a lobster you must greet.

You may comment on the weather, compliment his choice of hat,

But crustaceans like their space if one should stop them for a chat.

Don’t ever hug a lobster when you’re strolling down the coast,

Simply nod and give a greeting, or a handshake at the most,

For a lobster’s first priority is formal social graces,

And one seemes over-familiar if a lobster one embraces.

Don’t ever hug a lobster when you meet one in the sea,

For a lobster’s spines and chitin make it difficult, you see,

And he might become self-conscious if you bring that fact to light,

So don’t ever hug a lobster, simply put, it’s impolite.

i think one of the most interesting things about hamlet is how near the end, horatio, talking to fortinbras, says "give order that these bodies high on a stage be placed to the view, and let me speak to th' yet unknowing world how these things came about" because it's like. we just saw the play. we know how these things came about because of how the bodies were placed on a stage. it's really meta. if you moved the entire last bit where fortinbras and horatio are talking at the end to the beginning, we would see horatio unraveling the carnal, bloody and unnatural acts he promises to relate but since we see it at the end? i can't put it into words exactly but it's got a metafictional edge to it and i love it
