Athena blessed her with the ability to protect herself and men beheaded her for it.

That’s actually a really intetesting intpretation of it I hadn’t thought of. Most people seem to think Athena turned Medusa into a gorgon as punishment for defiling her temple, but thinking that she did so to protect her from being abused again is interesting and I like it!

Athena’s hands were tied. Yes, she was a powerful Goddess, but she was very much a woman in a “boys club”, and the true offending party (don’t think for a moment that Athena blamed Medusa for being raped in the temple, Athena knows better) held all the cards. There was nothing that Athena could do to punish the true criminal, and she was expected to punish Medusa by everyone else. What’s a Goddess to do when she cannot punish those who need to be punished and is expected to punish not only the truly innocent party, but her most beloved follower? Use that incredible brain power she had to protect Medusa at all costs, and of course the men would see it as punishment, to be have her beauty stripped from her and sent to live in the shadows. Medusa should have been KILLED for supposedly defiling the temple, whether she truly did or not, but she was given the gift of life, and the ability to protect herself and her daughters (who she bore thanks to Poseidon). This is why Medusa’s image was used to signify woman’s shelters and safe houses.

Medusa means “guardian; protectress”, and she was.

last night one of my campers was like “well i lost one of my shoes in the swamp today” and i said “oh no!” and she shrugged and said “its ok. shoes are just objects” and damn. they really are

[taahko]

today a completely different camper with scratches all over her legs was like “every step hurts me” and i was like “oh that sucks!” and she shrugged and said “well, you know, pain is a temporary emotion”

“There is abundant evidence to show that high buildings make people crazy.

High buildings have no genuine advantages, except in speculative gains for banks and land owners. They are not cheaper, they do not help create open space, they destroy the townscape, they destroy social life, they promote crime, they make life difficult for children, they are expensive to maintain, they wreck the open spaces near them, and they damage light and air and view. But quite apart from all of this, which shows that they aren’t very sensible, empirical evidence shows that they can actually damage people’s minds and feelings.”

(From A Pattern Language, a 1977 book by Christopher Alexander on architecture, urban design, and community livability)

When I started living in a high-rise my Mom said it was extremely important for me to get “grounded” at least once a month, which is executed by placing your bare feet on grass or dirt. She said it’s important for mental health and she claims that this also helps get electricity out of the body (I have no source for this claim). I don’t know if it’s a legitimate thing but I purposely go out for walks in the fields near my apartment and sit down without my shoes and socks on in grass every couple of weeks especially because I live so far from the ground…

Watch: Faith’s school lectured girls about makeup and “sexy selfies,” so she shut them all the way down.

[poetrylesbian]

For people who don’t read the article, what happened was that it was found that girls from 70 Australian schools were targeted by a porn site, with guys requesting pictures of specific girls and stuff.

The girl’s school, instead of lecturing the boys about treating their female peers like objects and posting pornography of girls as young as 12, decided to lecture the girls about makeup and and skirt length.

I’m so proud of this girl for standing up for herself and her peers!

[sourcedumal]

Holy fuck a porn site was literally trying to spread child pornography and the school lectured the GIRLS????? WHAT IN THE ENTIRE FUCK????
