Link trekking led me to these gorgeous photos: [link]
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Sadly, that first one is just a photo, so we still don't know what it says.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Grammaticians, do you agree that 'because' has a new part of speech role? Some commenters argue it's still the same old, others argue it's been a preposition long time. I am mostly dizzy.
Yes. Because reasons.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I think I don't know what prepositions are. Is there a Schoolhouse Rock about those?

But to answer the question, I think it's still a conjunction with an implied clause. The noun (well, usually a noun) after "because" is just shorthand for a longer clause.
Because grammar.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I actually learned a preposition song in 5th (?) grade, which I would sing for you now if you were here. But it's just a list, not a definition. In over under on across against around, beneath beside between before above for by beyond... etc.
