Absolutely living for the fact that in ancient Greece, it was said that when Apollo was drunk he created people with the "wrong" genitalia,, which, first of all, means that 1. trans people are not a new thing, we've always been here and we've always found ways to justify and explain our existence, and 2. the way that we chose to explain ourselves at one point was, "Yeah, the sun was wasted as hell when he made me, but it's cool." and that is fucking awesome

Listened to EPIC on shuffle today and got:

"ODYSSEUS OF ITHACA! Do you know who I am?"

*Wouldn't you like starts playing*

Along with Open arms between Monster and Just a man

Okay this is kinda a stupid thought I had once I got over the craziness of Odysseus.

All the like middle aged men are dead cuz of the war except for the weak and cowardly

And now Odysseus has killed all the suitors which was basically all the younger men of Ithaca. Plus some faraway princes and such

So in doing that he basically made Telemachus the most eligible bachelor in all of Ithaca and the neighboring kingdom.

His first day as a dad and he’s already wingmaning his son

WHY ARE THERE PEOPLE SHIPPING RAPIST X VICTIM????

CW : gore

Poseidon in epic the musical is really like "how dare you blind my son I wish you'd murdered him instead"

Can i also point out how freaking funny is that Telemachus went on a "diplomatic" mission, only to return cosplaying as Athena to kill the suitors?

Telemachus: "im going to kill those bastards"

Athena: "no not dressed like that"

Telemachus: "ok better?"

Athena: "yes bitch slay"

To the Epic folks, Outis is a fem adaptation of Odysseus from hit video game limbus company, does she deserve to keep her wonderful spartan wife as her wonderful spartan wife and not her wonderful spartan husband?

joseph:

[heathcliff talking to infant hareton after hindley's death] ". . . previous to following with Hareton, he lifted the unfortunate child on to the table and muttered, with peculiar gusto, 'Now, my bonny lad, you are mine! And we'll see if one tree won't grow as crooked as another, with the same wind to twist it!' The unsuspecting thing was pleased at this speech: he played with Heathcliff's whiskers, and stroked his cheek . . ."

heathcliff, 3 seconds after marrying isabella:

Ah yes, the three genders, man, mythical, Oddyseus

every time i listen to “you’re a mean one mr. grinch” i can’t help but sit there and think “what did the grinch do to hurt you?” because dude just stands there for 2 minutes and 58 seconds and drags the grinch into the dirt

"So like, the Lotus Eaters were just hypnotized dudes, but the fandom turned them into cute little creatures. And Jorge made that canon. Then people got confused and assumed the Winions were the same creature as the Lotus Eaters, and eventually, it became canon that the WERE the same creature. So now, the Lotus Eaters and the Winions are actually the same species. Also the Winions is the company the Jorge now owns. Also the winions are us"

Sorry, but "When's your tramp of a mother gonna choose a new husband?" will never not be funny to me

Like, excuse me? What did you just call the woman who's been faithfully waiting for her husband's return for over a decade?

I need Hermes to be in Outis’s canto and I need him to be an id for either Yi Sang (for the wing motif) or Don Quixote (Instead of flying sandals she has Rocinante)

That being said I also had an idea for a gregor hermes ID where his arm has the two snakes from Hermes’s staff coming out of it and wrapping around his arm

I will be drawing this when i get the chance

Can you tell I’ve been listening to Epic the musical?

IHNMAIMS au where literally every single bit of AMs dialouge gets cut off by this

Saying any white ass man should play heathcliff should get you banned from getting near any literary piece ever. Like I would say Wurthering Heights alone since you have Emily Bronte rolling in her grave because you thought you did something. But no. Just literature as a whole

LMAO true

has tumblr heard about the upcoming wuthering heights adaptation where they cast a white man as Heathcliff (a heavily implied to be romani character)

Here are a few excerpts from Wuthering Heights discussing Heathcliff's race, showing how Brontë left the matter intentionally ambiguous yet still attempted to make it clear that he wasn't white:

[Here Mr. Earnshaw refers to Heathcliff as "it" when introducing him to the Earnshaw family for the first time] "'. . . you must e’en take it as a gift of God; though it’s as dark almost as if it came from the devil.'"

"But Mr. Heathcliff forms a singular contrast to his abode and style of living. He is a dark-skinned gipsy in aspect, in dress and manners a gentleman . . ."

"Something stirred in the porch; and, moving nearer, I distinguished a tall man dressed in dark clothes, with dark face and hair."

"'Black hair and eyes!' mused Linton. 'I can't fancy him. Then I am not like him, am I?' 'Not much,' I answered: not a morsel, I thought, surveying with regret the white complexion and slim frame of my companion . . ."

"'A good heart will help you to a bonny face, my lad," I continued, "if you were a regular black; and a bad one will turn the bonniest into something worse than ugly . . .'"

"'God forbid that he should try!' answered the black villain."

"Heathcliff’s face brightened a moment; then it was overcast afresh, and he sighed. 'But, Nelly, if I knocked him down twenty times, that wouldn’t make him less handsome or me more so. I wish I had light hair and a fair skin, and was dressed and behaved as well, and had a chance of being as rich as he will be!'"

"I declare he is that strange acquisition my late neighbour made, in his journey to Liverpool—a little Lascar, or an American or Spanish castaway."

"You’re fit for a prince in disguise. Who knows but your father was Emperor of China, and your mother an Indian queen . . ."

"'That Heathcliff—you recollect him, sir—who used to live at Mr. Earnshaw’s.' 'What! the gipsy—the ploughboy?' he cried. 'Why did you not say so to Catherine?' 'Hush! you must not call him by those names, master,' I said."

sorry im going half mad as a desi but like. the fact that heathcliff is Not Fucking White is very important to the story actually! he's treated as subhuman for having brown skin and its the main if not only reason he was immeidtaley abused by his stepfamily! hes DESCRIBED differently from the white characters too! what the fuck! he's so obviously like romani or indian or just. NOT WHITE YOU CANT JUST DO THAT. ITS 2024. THE RACISM HE SUFFERS IS NOT EVEN SUBTEXT

dropped out of kill myself university to go find a fishing boat crewman apprenticeship cause noose 101 made me realise knot tying comes natural to me

I love this game

limbus company is a wild game. you play as a nonbinary amnesiac who got their head cut off and responded by replacing it with a flaming wall clock, whose second job is to (ineffectually, at first) be the manager of a group of people on a bus and whose first job is to revive and heal them anytime anything happens, which is all the time. your party is comprised of a dour scientist who has a habit of speaking in poetry, a mysterious white haired genius implied to be in a constant mental discord call with different versions of herself across multiple universes, an autistic woman who named her shoes after a fictional horse and turns into an ancient and powerful vampire if they're ever taken off, a swordswoman who speaks a third of her mind in acronyms and loves to murder people "artistically", an autistic frenchman built like a fridge who refuses to be a person unless ordered to, a long haired rich pretty boy who accidentally pisses people off with his sheltered behavior half the time and pretends to be dumber than he is to purposefully annoy people the other half, a british thug whose entire plot could have been solved by just spitting it out and also turned into a wolf monster for a bit, a ginger who got bored of her office job and decided to get on a boat and hunt whales about it, a russian gambler whose mental health and self image are rapidly deteriorating while she is also getting progressively worse at hiding it, a young man who is really in over his head while also being very good at killing people who also is weirdly good at translating the earlier mentioned swordswoman's acronyms, a kiss-ass former military woman who would probably kill everyone else in the party if she thought she could get away with it, and a german former-soldier who got a mutant bug arm and intense ptsd and depression. there's also the all powerful guide who tells you where to go who is legally not allowed to be too helpful and is also perpetually sick of your shit, and the strange girl who drives the bus you all ride in without a license or a lick of training. also the bus looks like a train. add onto the fact that most of the characters and their backstories are references to classic literature, and you have what is possibly the world's MOST dysfunctional dnd party.

we love this fucking game.

Every squad got the:

Needs to be screened for depression.

Why does bro know that?

Must adhere to the knight's code.

Probably a serial killer.

Low-empathy autism swag.

Kind of a shitbag but understandable given the circumstances.

Spent half their life on a marine vessel. Not straight.

Advocate for workers rights.

Only thing keeping things together.

Plagued by guilt. Not straight.

literally its so fun being abnormal about christianity and also being christian because i just said "id kiss judas with tongue" in front of my pastor and she squinted at me and went "do you need to be removed from council or are you going to be normal?"

Did you know that the eyes of frankenstein's monster are yellow, and that Frankenstein rejected him for it? Angela and Ayin's eyes are also yellow. The monster actively chooses to murder several people just to exact his petty revenge, blaming his creator for his actions.

The way Angela is willing to receive lots and lots of guests just to find the one true book, does that seem a little familiar to you?

For whatever cause, the ends do not justify the means. They are both monsters of their own stories, until they both decide to break this cycle.

god forbid 5000 year old girls do anything
