I love how every single Georg post observes the original's typo

i like that you said "observe" instead of "preserve," implying this has religious importance.

I know this is going to make me sound pretensions but I have to get it off my chest. I feel an unimaginable rage when someone posts a photo and is like "this picture looks like a renaissance painting lol" when the photo clearly has the lighting, colors and composition of a baroque or romantic painting. There are differences in these styles and those differences are important and labeling every "classical" looking painting as renaissance is annoying and upsetting to me. And anytime I come across one of those posts I have to put down my phone and go take a walk because they make me so mad

this post has re-wired my brain in the best way

im so much more interested in a hoo that lets Percy keep the status and power he'd left off with in the Last Olympian and explores how he grapples with that instead of immediately forcing him back into the role of the underdog at the expanse of his prior development. Let the fact that he alone has the title the "Savior of Olympus" mean something. Let the fact that he is the sole survivor of the great prophecy mean something. Let the Curse of Achilles mean something. Let us see how it's a curse and how it could warp his sense of self. Let Percy be on a completely different playing field than the rest of the seven (or even the other children of the big three at this point) and show us how it alienates him.

like call me crazy but I just think Percy being offered godship should have irrevocably altered his standing within the demigod and godly worlds even though he ultimately refused it !!

and maybe this is cheesy of me but idc idc just imagine a SON where monsters and gods alike refer to Percy as "Savior of Olympus" or "the god that wasn't" or "the god that almost was" or anything within that vein and think about how unsettling that would have been for an amnesiac Percy. How unsettling that would have been for Frank and Hazel.

and its unsettling for them in different ways because for Frank and Hazel they're quickly piecing together that the stranger they're traveling with is not just extremely powerful, but he is inexplicably known in the godly world. Monsters and deities recognize him. Title him as something that's inconceivable, impossible really (The Savior of Olympus? The god that almost was?) and then for Percy it's unsettling because even though he doesn't have his memories, these titles resonate with him. They feel right even though he doesn't have any of the context for it because Names have power. Titles have power.

Are there any other particularly egregious examples?

I liked this post, scrolled for like another minute before I went “SHIT FUCK SHIT” and scrolled back to reblog it

I always reblog this one when I see it on my dash. When someone posts their own art, writing, or music here they are really hoping you will share it.

This should win an Oscar
