I wanna apologize. Not for calling Apollo a hoe; because, that’s just a fact.
Rather, I have realized if Apollo came down to earth to get an apple himself he’d probably be super petty about and take his true god form, leaving the earth’s surface a little crispy.
Again, not a witch but why do the gods need offerings? Like, if Apollo wants an apple sooo bad then that hoe can come down here and get it himself.

More Epic Angst
It’s the middle of the night and shouting can be heard from the king’s chambers.
“Get your wretched hands off of me! I am done enacting your vile fantasies!”
It’s happening again.
“Odysseus, my king, my love, it is I, Penelope.”
But he couldn’t recognize that. Not now anyway.
“You are not! You are not! Cease veiling yourself as my wife you evil witch!”
Despite his wife’s gentle words, he couldn’t see her as he rocked in the fetal position; squinting his eyes shut as if he were a child hiding from an imaginary monster.
“Why must you take joy in tormenting me! I just want to go home! I just want to be home!”
The poor man cried in vain. And all his wife could do was weep. For she could not help her husband escape the prison of his confabulated captor. She could not free him from the prison of his own mind.
HEY EPIC FANS!!!! ⬇️
(Angst under the cut)
So I was rewatching some clips from Bridgerton (specifically Queen Charlotte) and it made me think about Odysseus and Penelope Growing old. Odysseus’ mind escaping him in his old age. At first it’s just a few moments Penelope notices he’s not entirely there, but as he grows closer to the end, his moments of lucidity are few and far between. He has confabulations of his past, of men in his palace when there are none. Penelope and Telemachus try their best to help him, but rumors quickly spread of the mad king.
One particular instance that seals this suspicion is when Ody mistakes Telemachus for one of Penelope’s old suitors and absolutely flys off the handles. Luckily Telemachus is a strong enough man he can hold his own against his aging father, but it shakes him up. It’s the first time his own father didn’t recognize him.
Though, as his condition progresses, his wife and son learn better how to adjust. For example Pen will sometimes hand Odysseus a baby doll (a trick used on irl dementia patients btw) and tell him to take care of Telemachus for a while, this helps calm the man down temporarily.
I’m not a witch but lemme just say that fae magic be wild as hell. Like I constantly give you booze and honey cake and you repay me with a ratty piece of ribbon. AND THEN, if you have the GALL to say thank you for whatever lame gift they brought, they get all offended and curse the shit out of you. Like what the hell Gethitreal, I thought we were friends.
PLEASE STOP SCROLLING!
I recently went through an extremely frightening experience with a mutual of mine. I won’t go into details but I feel I need to share this.
Please, for the love of God if you or anyone you know is showing signs of self harm or considering suicide call 988 IMMEDIATELY. Seek help yourself and/or encourage a loved one to.
Will be reblogging to all my side blogs as well. Stay safe please. We need you.
MEN OF TUMBLR
I need to settle an argument with a friend. If your girl got you Lego blocks, would you respond positively? Please elaborate why or why not!
EDIT: Guys the last answer is “I don’t play with Legos” (as you could probably guess)
OMG I LOVE THEM AND I LOBE YOUR ARTSTYLE!!!
Felt like my dear Bug deserved a proper reference, so here it is ! I love them very much <3
Decided to give them longer pants compared to their original design. I liked that it showed off their knee scar, but the shorts didn’t feel like Bug ? They’re much more comfortable now 😌
Also feat my baby boy Milooooo (who I also need to make a reference sheet for)
I’m just saying, if I was a doctor I’d keep stickers and decals of popular adult media characters with me along with sugar free lollipops to give out after your checkup.
Like, just because I’m an adult doesn’t mean I don’t want a little treat. Being at the doctor’s office is stressful my guy. If you’re gonna pay out the ass for medical insurance you at least deserve a sticker for your troubles.
Okay I’m calling out to the Greek mythology side of tumblr with this one:
TW: Mentions of SA (Its Greek mythology so of course)
Adaptations of popular Greek myths are all but uncommon, especially those that portray the viewpoint of the many victims of the gods. Like the tragedies of Medusa, Io, Daphne, Echo etc.
Don’t misunderstand, if done right these can all be awesome retellings, but where is my Endymion retelling?
What would happen if Endymion woke up?
Can you imagine going to sleep one day, only to wake up hundreds if not thousands or years later to find out you were essentially magic-roofied and SA’d by a stranger who is now the mother to your FIFTY KIDS?!? (Oh yeah you have 50 kids now)
The Greek gods were meant to represent reality, not idealism and the story of Endymion almost perfectly encapsulates that. A young victim to the whims of someone far older and more powerful than them. Unable to remember what was done to them, but left feeling so confused and upset. Waking up in a strange new place after just having such an integral part of yourself violated…
THE STORY POTENTIAL IS ENDLESS
So why do we ignore him?
TLDR; Justice for my boi Endymion. He deserves better.
Or just start stealing shit
Forget Neil Gaiman, look at how smart bees are.
What does it take to teach a bee to use tools? A little time, a good teacher and an enticing incentive. Read more here: http://to.pbs.org/2mpRUAz
