the thing about “well-behaved women rarely make history" is that the author, Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, didn’t write it about women who would be considered “badly-behaved;“ she wrote it in a book about a midwife, about women who had been largely ignored and erased from history because as a result of their “good behaviour.” So it’s not a “BAD GIRLS DO IT WELL" kind of quote; it’s a reminder to respect and pay attention to the women who go about quietly living their lives.

moooeow

I'm really kerfuzzled today. Here's the breakdown of why:

Any company has the right to refuse to host or sell your book, music, podcast, blog or whatever. They should have this right. It is an important right. Nobody should host any material that they don't see as fitting for their business or image.

But what happens when there are only three companies and they all subscribe to the same ideology and all have agendas of spreading their own message and nothing else? That leads to things getting censored, not by becoming stricken from libraries and hosting sites, but never being approved by any of them at all. And when somebody starts their own company to host these refused messages, the company itself is struck down by the monopolies. We all remember Parler.

We all know the world we are rocketing closer to. Someday soon, I won't be able to make this post and you won't be able to read it.

[ D ] uyong: mermaids from Malaysian mythology, their basic shape - the upper body of a human woman paired with a fish tail - comes from the legend of Atargatis, the Assyrian goddess of the moon and fertility. Unlike western mermaids, they tend to be of a mournful nature, a behavioral trait also derived from Atargatis.

But earth, and air, and water, were in one.  Thus air was void of light, and earth unstable, And water’s dark abyss unnavigable. No certain form on any was imprest; All were confus’d, and each disturb’d the rest. For hot and cold were in one body fixt; And soft with hard, and light with heavy mixt.

If I’m reading this correctly

it looks like Perseus was one of the first heroes to have an interracial marriage

Because apparently Andromeda was a princess of Ethiopia…?

I mean someone correct me if I’m wrong but this is pretty cool

You know how Jesus is the Word, the Logos, a form of expression and the ordering principle of the world, the one that created everything out of nothing, taking the primordial chaos and defining and limiting and ordering and giving meaning to all the things created, making it into something that makes sense, and how man was made in God’s image, a sub-creator, using words to tell stories to make sense of our experiences and express ourselves? Yeah.
