Three things, mostly related to R. Kelly.
1) It’s been officially corroborated that the Kelly home was full of COCSA. No fucking wonder he ended up the way he did.
2) Apparently, when R. Kelly named himself the Pied Piper of R&B, he knew fuck-all about the original fairy tale. There’s controversy about whether or not his shock when informed what actually went on in the story was performative or genuine, but given his well-documented literacy issues, I can believe it either way.
3) On a side note, I always treated the Pied Piper as an anti-heroic (emphasis on anti) character, especially given that, until today, I didn’t even know that there were versions of the tale that gave a legit reason for the people of Hamlin to not pay him.

Comparing the Universal Oneness of All Life to Yo Mama since 2010.
I was born with the gift of laughter and a sense the world is mad.
