These Are So Fun To Do!!

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!

Every. Frame. Matters.

This is absolutely beautiful and I think may be my favorite fan piece I have every seen.

EVERY Frame Matters

300 Artists, 300 Frames and a shared love for Good Omens and it's characters. We came together and created an animation of the kiss from S2. Here is the result:

@neil-gaiman

EVERY Frame Matters is a project organized by @dotswithbrainrot and @tsutsuya

RotTMNT Donnie HCs because I feel like it.

-Donnie is autistic

-Their love languages are physical touch and acts of service.

-Pronouns: He/They/It (Demi-boy)

-They are Polyromantic (preference towards guys) and Ace

- His favorite thing to do on a Friday night is to curl up with a weighted blanket, fidget/stim toys and put on their comfort show/movie

-He had chronic pain and fatigue! He uses knee/leg braces sometimes. When he has a whole plan for the day then he wakes up and is to fatigued to do it, he gets really frustrated with itself. The rest of them try to calm him down and cheer them up. Donnie feels like such a burden and the others have to remind him that he’s not. :)

-He is fluent in ASL! I think because he goes non-verbal sometimes, especially when he’s hyper focused or frustrated.

-He stutters a bit when he’s stressed, frustrated, in a lot of pain or REALLY excited.

-Ok last one! He wears purple socks when he wants to be comfy.

Thanks! :)) <3,

Have a great morning, afternoon or night lovelies!
