That when I waked I cried to dream again.

Greek settlers living in ancient Egyptian cities ‘translated’ Egyptian gods into their own familiar deities. The ancient Greek Ptolemies, who ruled Egypt for over 300 years, introduced Greek versions of Egyptian gods to encourage cultural integration in their kingdom. They also sought the support of Egyptian priests in order to be recognised as legitimate pharaohs, and renovated temples and built magnificent new ones. After 30 BC, aspects of this Greco-Egyptian religion also spread across the Roman Empire.

Religious life played an important role in the ancient Egyptian cities of Thonis-Heracleion and Canopus. Greeks and Egyptians lived and worshipped side by side, acknowledging similarities and differences in their practices. Underwater finds at Thonis-Heracleion include religious offerings from across the Mediterranean world, reflecting diverse beliefs.

ok so in high school on away game days, the football players and cheerleaders would have to share busses because our school was broke as fuck so our cheer bus would always have a group of varsity footballerers in the back of it. one day my genius friend and I were discussing our feminist rage when she said “bridget you should totally throw a tampon back there and see what they do” and me being myself, stood up and hurled a one (1) tampon at the Manly Men. IT LOOKED LIKE A WAR MOVIE. THE BROS FACES WERE FILLED WITH HORROR AS THEIR BUDDY GOT SHOT. HE WENT DOWN SO DRAMATICALLY AS SCREAMS FILLED THE BUS. BOYS WERE SLINKING AS FAR AWAY FROM THE DEADLY TAMPON AS PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE. ONE BRO WAS EYEING THE EMERGENCY WINDOW WITH ALL SERIOUSNESS, READY TO FREE HIMSELF FROM THE THREAT. BEING IN CHICAGO, THE BUS DRIVER PULLED OVER ASSUMING A KID ACTUALLY GOT SHOT. A GIRL HAD TO GO GET THE TAMPON SO THE GUYS WOULD STOP SHITTING THEIR PANTS AND SIT THEIR ASSES THE FUCK BACK DOWN.

When my brother was in high school, as a prank, someone stuck a pad to the front bumper of his truck.  A CLEAN, UNUSED PAD.

My brother came home from high school, 17 years old, CRYING and my dad made ME go get it off his truck.

in high school, in an AP science class, all the boys were in a group and huddled around something and acting like it was a bag of puke or something and daring each other to poke it. one of the girls asks what they’re doing and the boys look at each other all sly and shit and run over and shove this long white odd-shaped pen in her face. they ask her to identify it. she says its a pen. the boys look disappointed and go over to me and ask the same thing. 

i say “its a weird shaped pen” and they wiggle it around a little bit and go “yeah but what does it look like?” Im clueless to what they’re going on about. meanwhile all the rest of the class is watching. the dude finally gets tired of the unimpressed responses he’s getting and goes “it looks like a tampon, right?!” all triumphant like he found a bug and expects us all to scream in fear of it

instead the first girl he talked to reaches over to her bag and starts to rummage around going “no, THIS is what a tampon looks like” and BEFORE SHE CAN EVEN FINISH PULLING IT OUT all the boys have scattered to the farthest corners of the room, screaming, like banshee-roaches when the lights come on

it was funny as hell XD

Yall know the “i’m not a feminist” “”phenomena”” has existed since feminism has been a thing right

Dagger Cane

Culture: Turkish

Measurements: overall length 36 inches (91.4cm)

This Turkish cane is crafted entirely of metal and enveloped in intricate niello metalwork. An instrument of self-defense, this cane conceals a nearly eight-inch dagger. The handle in the shape of a growling feline could have been used as a bludgeon, while the pointed ferrule doubles as a spear.
