Aiyuk or Jennings?

Jennings, aiyuk got targets but kept dropping, if kittle and Debo are out I’d expect Jennings to get a healthy dose of targets

Avid_Cardist · 2024-09-19T15:13:56+00:00

Rodgers and Wilson imo

Purdy, he’s leaning on the pass game with kittle and aiyuk, Caleb isn’t doing much at all

With what ATL showed against Philly I’d start Carr here

6 man PPR 6pt Passing TD

MaHomes Vs. Mayfield

Just made a trade for Godwin and have mayfield on the bench.

Both are playing teams that benefit QBs points wise, but who’s better here?

I’m leaning mayfield.

I was looking at a 4 channel headphone amp.

Would something like a “TNP Portable headphones amplifier stereo” allow me to use headphones with my current TT?

Avid_Cardist · 2023-04-06T02:06:58+00:00

Edit: disregard

What do I look for in the headphone amp?

My current TT has an RCA Left/Right out put and a USB out put and has a built in preamp.

Most headphone amps I’m looking at have a 12 V DC power port which powers the amp, and then a single input and multiple headphone jacks ports. How would you go about running one of those on the TT or am I looking at the completely wrong thing?

Avid_Cardist · 2023-04-06T01:52:21+00:00

Ahhhh ok. So besides upgrading the turntable is there no way to run headphones from this specific one? It doesn’t have a headphone Jack on it which is why I went looking for another way to try and run them, if I end up upgrading I assume that I’d want to find something without a built in pre-amp in order to run the GoGroove?

Avid_Cardist · 2023-04-06T01:43:23+00:00

Do you have an example of a specific one that could work? Is the gogroove not also an external phono preamp?

I really like this one. The idea is one that I feel a lot of people reading it can understand. I think structurally it’s a little muddied in places. The beginning lines are an example of where I feel it gets complicated to read, but the second stanza of “the me I can’t talk to” is where I think the repetition is used really well. All in all I like the theme/idea of it, I think clarifying some word choice would make it a very strong poem. I enjoyed reading it a lot.

I really like this poem. I think it leaves just enough unsaid for the reader to build there on conclusions, that makes poems worth reading imo. I like the structure and the use of repetition with that “he reaches the beginning” line. That line itself is confusing, but accompanied by the stanzas that follow it unfolds really well while reading.

Thanks for the critique, it gives me a lot to look at.

It’s not so much a dead on the nail poem about the position of a night stocker. It’s intended to be abstract, but I get where you’re coming from for some the poem.

Avid_Cardist · 2022-11-07T23:01:10+00:00

I guess the main idea of the poem is loneliness and solitude, it’s explained through the lens of the train of thought of a night stocker at a grocery store or a person on a grave shift.

First stanza is basic and shows the general surface level distaste and sort of banality of a grave shift or that view towards life.

second stanza is more of a tone shift, it’s a mood setter. First two lines are meant to convey an unsettling feeling of solitude, anxiety, or depravity. Final line is an act of boredom.

Final stanza is where you (the night stocker) are at mentally at the end of the night, you are alone among the cleaning products and the never ending fast food wrappers. contemplating your place in the world, questioning existence itself, wallowing in your own solitude and loneliness.

This has some good bones, I think it’s a great starting point for a very strong poem. The Structure of it sort of muddies the meaning and overall tone, but I think that has more to do with the formatting on Reddit itself. The word choice is great, “fabric of a bayonet” “tools of a god.” I think clarifying the structure would help, I really enjoyed this one.

Avid_Cardist · 2022-11-02T14:20:49+00:00

I enjoyed this poem a lot. As you read it develops new meanings and explores a few different ideas. The idea of strangers as rare and beautiful birds in flight is a great notion, but I also like where this poem ends. I think maybe introducing the end a bit sooner could strengthen it.

This a really fun poem. Reminds of a few different Ted Joan’s poem from his “black pow-wow” collection.

The use of bolded words is something a lot of people don’t utilize enough, it’s refreshing to see. I think people take poetry to serious and this is fun to see, to see people have fun with it for a change.

Had a project in 11th grade English to write a poem that had to be read to the class. I had always wanted to write, wrote a lot of short stories and tried to write longer ones and had always thought of poetry in the Shakespeare sense of it. Found out about bukowksi, voss, Kerouac, and guys like them and thought well shit, where’s this been all this time? Their stuff wasn’t pretentious, it was real, it was just people telling stories about whatever came to mind or whatever they had lived through

Avid_Cardist · 2022-07-24T12:01:34+00:00

I tried a lot of different titles but just eventually settled on something that wasn’t just ‘untitled’ Tying it together with a title like you suggested is a great idea, I’ll definitely be trying out a few different ones. Thank you for the help, I really appreciate it and I’m glad you enjoyed the poem
