Why Is No One Mentioning Ryan Reynolds Told Us A FUCKING YEAR AGO He’d Go For Cablepool With All He’s

Olympus has changed.

The balance of power has shifted.

Zeus still reigns as king, yes, but now no more than a figurehead.

Gone are the days of mortals quaking in fear at every thunderstorm, every drought, every flood. They have grown beyond that, evolved. They have figured ways around his wrath; levees, crops that grow in the desert, iron and steel and cables.

Zeus is no more than a figurehead on Olympus.

Gone are the days of his council, of Demeter and Poseidon and Hera.

The crops are managed by the mortals now, the seas pose little threat when they can see Poseidon’s wrath coming, plot course around it, or dive below the waves. Hera’s base is crumbling- what she protected, her narrow idea of marriage, is changing and broadening to include so much more. Aphrodite is inching in on her power, love taking place where obligation once stood.

Instead, Olympus is ruled by a parliament.

In a world that runs on fossil fuels and crude oils mined from beneath the earth, Hades’ power grows. His kingdom expands with every life lost in pursuit of his materials. The mortals are learning, their eyes are opening at the futility of this effort. They are beginning to turn to other methods- to Apollo and Zephyros and Persephone, but there will always be death. Hades wins either way.

The machines that guzzle the fuel? They belong to Hephaestus. The machines that take lives? They are his realm as well. Anything with a gear, and engine, a circuit board, or a blade belongs to the God of Fire. His crooked throne grows ever higher.

The old ways of thinking are dying. Those in power who have wielded it over the oppressed are falling from their perches, called to justice by the women they wronged. Peoples of all genders are coming out of the woodwork, less and less afraid to be who they are everyday. The social norms that separate the mortals based on a binary are crumbling. Athena waits, and smiles. Her time has come once more.

But above all, one God’s power has risen exponentially. Roads cross-cross the world like the scars on a whipped man’s back. Currency flows like water, more and more essential by the day. Hephaestus’ machines and Hades’ fuels only further his power. Places of commerce spring up like weeds among enclaves of mortals- they will travel miles to go to one market and miles to another with nary a thought. The internet connects them all- relating messages, parcels, commerce, gambling… all his realm.

Zeus may be king of Olympus, but Hermes holds the power.

The establishment of heaven has fallen. The Patriarch is powerless.

The Outcast, the Disabled, the Feminist, and the Clever Criminal have risen up and seized the throne, if not in name, then in deed.

It won’t be long before the mortals do the same.

INFJs and stress

Found this gem in an article

shoutout to all the “gifted kids”

who now have depression and/or anxiety, are probably adhd but dont know bc they were never diagnosed bc they just assumed that was part of being “gifted”, have a crippling fear of rejection and not being good enough, struggle to learn new skills bc if they arent perfect the first time then whats the point, and hide all of their self doubt with memes

do you think peter would be able to lift mjolnir? bc since I've left the cinemas all I can think is homecoming!peter is 100% worthy. and he probably stands there dumbstruck w tears in his eyes realising that he is worthy, OR doesn't have a clue about it and just picks up the hammer one day like 'whoa this is so cool what's it made out of?' while the other avengers lose. their. shit.

Peter soooooooo would, no one is worthier than Peter Parker. Like honestly he probably does just pick it up like “hey cool thor is this your hammer” and he’s SO WORTHY that it’s nothing and he’s like “lmao you guys said this was super heavy? you’re all lame this is light as fuck” and they’re like PETER and then yeah he gets emotional and he’s like “i’m obviously ALLERGIC to mjolnir anyway I’m going to BED” and wipes at his eyes when he’s turned away from them and they’re all too confused and baffled to realize that he also carried it away with him, probably to send a snapchat of him holding it to Ned 

INFJ in a Nutshell #12

“That’s a thing?”

Chill or ticked: there is no in-between

“Lets go around the room and introduce ourselves!” *internal screaming *

Probably has a drawer full of interesting knick-knacks

Sometimes picture-shy

*phone rings * “My clock is making weird noises again…”

Knows a lot, can’t put their knowledge into words very well

Knows more people in books than in real life

“I’ve lost all faith in humanity.”

Here's to all the kids who grew up gifted but have no social skills now.

The pioneers of a warless world are the young men who refuse military service.

The thought of Hilda being asexual never occurred to me while watching it, but I love this headcanon. It makes sense and as an asexual, it’s about damn time we have some representation other than psychopaths

Hilda Spellman is Asexual

I just finished The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and it was a mixed bag but ultimately fun and intriguing. BUT one thing in particular struck me from episode 5 and I haven’t seen any comment on it so I’m gonna let you in the know:  Hilda Spellman is super ace, I feel it deeply and I’m gonna prove it.
