It’s not at all silly. There’s some nice visualisations[1] of GR in YouTube that look like space is being swallowed up by matter. A toy model I like to use in my mind is that matter absorbs spacetime. It is literally sucked in! A possible extension of this model is that the tension introduced in the vacuum causes it to stretch out. That could potentially explain the non-r^2 terms in galactic rotation curves.
