Thanks For Tagging Me!!

a quick psa to anyone recently getting into greek mythology and is a victim of tumblr and/or tiktok misconceptions:

-there is no shame in being introduced to mytholgy from something like percy jackson, epic the musical or anything like that, but keep in mind that actual myths are going to be VERY different from modern retellings

-the myth of medusa you probably know (her being a victim of poseidon and being cursed by athena) isn't 100% accurate to GREEK mythology (look up ovid)

-there is no version of persephone's abduction in which persephone willingly stays with hades, that's a tumblr invention (look up homeric hymn to demeter)

-as much as i would like it, no, cerberus' name does not mean "spot" (probably a misunderstanding from this wikipedia article)

-zeus isn't the only god who does terrible things to women, your fav male god probably has done the same

-on that note, your fav greek hero has probably done some heinous shit as well

-gods are more complicated than simply being "god of [insert thing]", many titles overlap between gods and some may even change depending on where they were worshipped

-also, apollo and artemis being the gods of the sun and the moon isn't 100% accurate, their main aspects as deities originally were music and the hunt

-titans and gods aren't two wholly different concepts, titan is just the word used to decribe the generation of gods before the olympians

-hector isn't the villain some people make him out to be

-hephaestus WAS married to aphrodite. they divorced. yes, divorce was a thing in ancient greece. hephaestus' wife is aglaia

-ancient greek society didn't have the same concepts of sexuality that we have now, it's incorrect to describe virgin goddesses like artemis and athena as lesbians, BUT it's also not wholly accurate to describe them as aromantic/asexual, it's more complex than that

-you can never fully understand certain myths if you don't understand the societal context in which they were told

-myths have lots and lots of retellings, there isn't one singular "canon", but we can try to distinguish between older and newer versions and bewteen greek and roman versions

-most of what you know about sparta is probably incorrect

-reading/waching retellings is not a substitute to reading the original myths, read the iliad! read the odyssey! i know they may seem intimidating, but they're much more entertaining than you may think

greek mythology is so complex and interesting, don't go into it with preconcieved notions! try to be open to learn!

I’m a trans man that has had dysphoria since I was a child. I am a trans man that was boyish growing up. I am a trans man in an unaccepting household. I am a trans man who strictly uses he/him. I am a trans man that is strictly masculine. I am a trans man that is gay because I am a man that likes men.

I am the “real trans person” that you people claim you are defending, but I really just want you to shut up.

When it comes down to it I will be discriminated against the same as a feminine trans man, masculine trans woman, anyone on the aromantic and/or asexual spectrum no matter their identity, someone who uses neopronouns or xenogenders, etc.

Coming from the trans/gay person you claim you’re defending: I don’t want you. You make things worse for all of us. My oppression is not “worse” than any other queer persons’s. Go do something actually meaningful with your time instead of trying to tear a community apart

I don’t know how people still ship Loki and Sylvie. Not after season two. Not after seeing how Loki and Mobius behave and look at each other. Not after seeing how much Loki and Mobius love each other.

It still irritates the hell out of me how well Sylvie seems to have accepted Loki's absence. I mean, come on, Loki SACRIFICED himself so that in the end she could come back and live her happy life the way she wanted. But in this scene she seems to be talking about the fucking wind, they ruined her so much in this second season.

While Mobius seems SAD AS HELL. ALONE in a new life that he still doesn't know how to deal with and that he didn't ask for, without the presence of the person he liked most. He looks so devastated, like someone came and destroyed his favorite jetski, when in fact the only thing destroyed was his and Loki's chance to ride that damn jetski TOGETHER.

Lost Thoughts

I had an idea.

Well where did it go?

The place all lost thoughts go, I suppose.

Will it come back?

I guess only time will tell.

Why don’t you find it?

Trying to find lost thoughts never ends well.

Maybe they are meant to be lost

Maybe they were never meant to see the light of day.

They are lost to the spring showers that slowly wash them away.

They travel around forming groups

For a while they are lost, not knowing what to do.

Then they settle down, out of the way,

So new thoughts can form and do what they do.

The thoughts are lost but so rarely forgotten,

Forming forests and life where the lost gather often,

The lost and the beautiful.

Never the rotten.

Well where does the rotten go?

Nobody quite knows.

They appear in politicians dreams, I suppose.

Lost thoughts can always be found again.

Around corners, up and over bends.

When the wind whispers, try to listen.

Because these lost thoughts?

They all have one mission.

To find a home again, some place warm and new.

When you whisper back to the wind,

It listens to you.

So to find the lost thoughts, one must be patient,

Go around the corner, up and over the bends,

You might just find your lost thought again.
