You know Meg may be an iconic Disney princess but she didn’t last long in the actual mythology.

Hera holds grudges.

“Those poor boys”

“She deserves to be punished too.”

“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”

“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”

“She put herself in harm’s way”

“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”

“She ruined their lives.”

Ksenia Svincova has created some dark and fantastical artwork inspired by Norse Mythology.

Today is my birthday and I would like to ask for something.

So one of the things about my life is that my parents were really terrible at building life skills and sharing sound life advice and practical adulting skills.

If you are a parent yourself, or you’re great at adulting, or you were lucky enough to have great parents, or you’ve been in that place and learned and have something you would have told your past self, or you simply want to be a pal and do a good deed, reblog this and share a bit of sound advice, the more mundane the better.

Different Stories Resonate with Different People

Families in mythologies are always convoluted due to the fact that gods like to mess with normal people.

Looking at you Zeus and also Posiedon.

Hades is the only one that is chill and just hangs out with his dog and his wife

Do you ever think you'll stop drawing fanart? No offense it just seems like the kind of thing you're supposed to grow out of. I'm just curious what your plans/goals are since it isn't exactly an art form that people take seriously.

Ah, fanart. Also known as the art that girls make.

Sad, immature girls no one takes seriously. Girls who are taught that it’s shameful to be excited or passionate about anything, that it’s pathetic to gush about what attracts them, that it’s wrong to be a geek, that they should feel embarrassed about having a crush, that they’re not allowed to gaze or stare or wish or desire. Girls who need to grow out of it.

That’s the art you mean, right?

Because in my experience, when grown men make it, nobody calls it fanart. They just call it art. And everyone takes it very seriously.

“We chose the term “asexual” to describe ourselves because both “celibate” and “anti-sexual” have connotations we wished to avoid: the first implies that one has sacrificed sexuality for some higher good, the second that sexuality is degrading or somehow inherently bad. “Asexual”, as we use it, does not mean “without sex” but “relating sexually to no one”. This does not, of course, exclude masturbation but implies that if one has sexual feelings they do not require another person for their expression. Asexuality is, simply, self-contained sexuality.”

— The Asexual Manifesto, Lisa Orlando and Barbara Getz, 1972
