people who learned about greek mythology due reasons that DONT involve having read percy jackson at 12 freak me out, like what the FUCK was going on in your life that you found out that zeus turned into a pigeon to woo his wife like HOW
tumblr users baffled by the concept of engaing with things that aren't YA fiction and fandom.
I'm An Old (and had to look up what Percy Jackson was) but I learnt about Greco-Roman (and Irish, Norse, Indian, Egyptian, and African (and many others) mythology- you're never going to believe this-- through library books and my teacher.
Mythology was a passion of my Latin teacher when I was in school. When I told him I wanted more books about this, he didn't teach whatever he was going to teach that day, and spent a lot of time telling us about ancient Greco-Roman gods and mythology. We were all very excited and asked for more.
He gave us some book titles to look up in the library and said if we were really interested, we would write a short essay on what mythologies we were most interested in.
He then went to the headmaster with all the essays and told her that we were all really enjoying the mythology and wanted do a class on it. Headmaster was like 'cool. Go design it. Start next semester.'
So he started a Comparative Religion and Mythology class for us, though most of the emphasis was on mythology. I signed up for it.
(He later told me that I was one of the reasons the headmaster greenlit the class-- because I was known as a 'bad' kid who rarely showed up for class, and this was one of the few things I showed any interest in. He told me that the headmaster greenlit the class hoping that I would go to some of my other classes since I was already at the school for Mythology, anyway. And I did attend this class regularly, and her scheme probably worked as I did skip a little less often).
There was too much to cover, even though it was a pretty long class. The teacher gave us resources (books and library catalogue numbers to take to the local librarians) to continue researching on the various mythologies that we developed a passion in.
He had an open-door policy for his lunch-break that if we wanted to come in and talk to him about religion or mythology, we could-- but the only rule was that we had to discover something on our own in our research to talk about. Couldn't be something we already covered in class or the main texts we were looking at. So we would all spend time in the library looking through the books and checking out piles of them to come in and chat with him about.
And, if you managed to find a tidbit of knowledge he did NOT know about mythology, we would get a prize. (He had a prize box in the back of his cabinet like Lego figurines and sweets and dumb toys that kids think are fun.)
That is how I learnt about Mythology when I was a kid. And I ended up focussing a lot on Mythology and Folklore for my BA, and nearly went into a specialised MA programme, but decided to go a different direction for the rest of my education-- though I still managed to bring it into my work when I could. But I still have a great love and passion for it. And it was definitely reignited when I went to Greece in February and I've been reading up on Greco-Roman myth again since then.
Even the kid who is trying the hardest to escape school will still have something they want to learn.
English major who learned about mythology because all the English, Irish, and American poets referenced it constantly. It comes up in a lot of classic literature too,it's all over the place in my current read, the count of monte cristo.
It's in video games as well, like god of war, odyssey, and hades.
And every single Assassin's Creed game.
pulls out soapbox
Recency bias is such a scourge on creativity and analysis. modern art, music, literature, film, drama are in constant conversation with what came before. Let's take Christopher Nolan films. Memento? The labyrinth with a minotaur caged with in. Guy Pearce is the minotaur and created the maze to contain is his raison d'etre.
Interstellar? Technically the upcoming Odyssey is superfluous. This film already depicts a man fighting against all odds to get back home. His daughter "weaves" the technology to enable it.
Inception? A journey through the underworld.
You learn these mythological stories once, and you start seeing them everywhere. You mind does connect the dots and all the art becomes much more enriching. Also, no wrong answers. if you see the connections, they exist.
isn't that cool?
All the Star Wars, Marvel and DC bullshit are essentially variations of The Hero's Journey.
The Lion King (aside from essentially being Hamlet) is also the story of Osiris and Horus.
Oh Brother Where Art Thou- Homer's Odyssey.
The Lighthouse - Prometheus and Proteus.
Pan's Labyrinth, Persephone in the underworld.
The Matrix is the story of Orpheus's journey into the underworld (where he meets Delphi).
Most of your favourite films and video games probably have a mythological counterpart to some story or another.
"there's no wrong way to consume a piece of media" yes there is
Yeah that’s why they made Switch cartridges taste bad.
someone could probably say something pretty about fossils, constellations, and stars in the sky

Please
i know the way people talk about their pets now is probably how we’ve been doing it for all of history. a cat owner in ancient rome saw their cat lounging on the dining pillows and commented “he thinks himself to be the senator claudius 🤣”
Saying this with all the love in my heart, "Trans" is not a magical title that erases all social biases and discriminations you hold in your mind the moment you transition.
You have to actually ACTIVELY unlearn all that shit. You can actually be trans AND hold TERF and racist beliefs, it is in fact very easy.
Read studies and essays, Engage with the works of other minorities, Don't think you're just better by virtue of losing *some* privilege.

Literally the definition of imperialism and classism. Doesn’t matter how many peasants you sacrifice as long as the most powerful piece is left standing
Proximity of bishops to the rulers promotes theocratic oppression

Hey can you guys reblog Cheeseburger so he can take a sunbeam nap on lots of blogs. No other reason I just want you guys to see him.
So, Cheeseburger died on November 21st after an unfairly short battle with an unfairly rare cancer that is rarely seen in cats. I only got to spend a month with him after his diagnosis, and losing him has been the greatest heartbreak of my entire life so far. He was my best friend and my soul cat, and he was there for me when I was completely alone, for twelve long years.
I made this transparent PNG the night he died in preparation for one of the many ways I was going to memorialize him--a surface rug in his likeness that I planned on laying directly in the line of his favourite sunbeam. And I uploaded that PNG here, because this is the website where people post their cats.
I was not expecting the reception I got. Many people have pointed out that this post has more reblogs than likes, and how insane that is in 2025 when reblog culture is at an all time low. I didn't even talk about the fact that Burger passed away in the original post, it wasn't a tearjerker reblog bait or anything like that. People just loved Burger that much, in the same way I fell in love with him at first sight. He was such an ugly kitten.
Anyways, it's really special to me that so many people have reblogged my best friend. I made this PNG to memorialize him in a completely different way, and you all wound up doing just that in ways I never even imagined.
Thank you. Wherever he is, I know the sun is shining.
Pre-menstrual depression is always depicted as like "He He! I had a box of icecream bars and cried while watching the Titanic!" But in reality, it's more like, "I'm standing the edge of an abyss. There is nothing good inside of me, I'm filled with rage and desperation."
It's crazy that being told how to deal with that is never a part of anyone's menstrual sex education.
This has already been said in the notes, but if PMS causes extreme depression and even suicidal ideation, that is in fact something that most people do not experience and it can be treated
Like for the majority it really is "oh i'm hungrier and moodier than usual"
^this should be a part of sex education so the point still stands
I went to my doctor after I was walking to work one morning and saw a bus coming and actually took a step to throw myself in front of it before I pulled myself together. Later that day I started bleeding and was literally like someone flipped a switch and I didn't feel suicidal anymore. Which made me feel like I was loosing my mind because who goes from 'I want to throw myself in front of a bus' to 'I'm perfectly fine' just like that? I did some research, I went to the doctor and described my feelings, he looked me in the eye and gently asked what I thought it was, I said I'd read about PMDD and I thought it might be that, he said 'I think so too' and wrote a prescription.
If, before you get your period, you feel furiously angry, suicidal, irritated by every tiny thing to the point you want to murder someone, stuck in a black hole you'll never escape from. If you are experiencing extreme emotions for what seems like no good reason, especially if you get your period and those extreme emotions just go away. You're probably not just PMSing , you may have PMS's feral big sister PMDD and it's treatable.
Also this is something that can develop as you get older. So if you used to get normal PMS but what I wrote above sounds more like your norm now then don't just write it off as regular PMS.
I don't know who my intended audience is here, so whoever needs to hear this, I am begging you to learn to participate in conversations that are about things you aren't interested in.
Part of socializing and having friends is being a good listener even when you don't actually give a shit about the subject.
Your are hurting other people's feelings when you bluntly respond with "Anyway..." and then change the topic.
It can not always be about your preferred topic.
You are being rude. Yes, even if you are neurodivergent. You can be both autistic and rude.
