Too bad the prophet Cassandra never met Odysseus
They say if she made a prophecy Nobody would believe her
I’ve gotta say, that is exactly the kind of stupid thing that probably would circumvent a curse.
Cassandra: YOU ARE ALL GOING TO REGRET THIS SO MUCH YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW.
Odysseus: Regret it why?
Cassandra: You won’t believe me if I tell you. If I prophecy, nobody believes me. That is my curse.
Odysseus: … I’m Nobody. Fill me in.
*A couple of months later*
Odysseus: HELLO PENELOPE, I AM HERE PRECISELY ON TIME AND NOT YEARS LATE incidentally I rescued and adopted a Trojan seer while I was away, she’s great, got me home really fast, Cassandra this is your new mother who’s not going to treat you like shit.
Penelope: … I’m going to need more details, but okay, sure.
Cassandra: *in tears* I love you, new family.
Cassandra: Penelope, I’ve had another vision.
Penelope, sighs: Go tell your father.
#awww #wholesome greek mythology #bet you’ve never seen that phrase before (via @philosopherking1887)
rbing again bc i saw someone noting that Odysseus isn’t technically Nobody until after he blinds Polyphemus, which, correct and fair.
But consider: Odysseus is exACTLY the kinda smartass who’d chime in “oh i’m Nobody” just off the fuckin’ cuff if presented with “Nobody will believe me!” Like it’s a Dad Joke.
That was my exact reasoning! I mean, if he could come up with ‘Noman’ on the spur of the moment once, surely when presented with an opening like this he would go straight to ‘… hi, I’m Nobody’. The man may not have always been pleasant, but he *was* always wily.
I remain extremely proud of this post. It’s nice to see it still going around.
My classical mythology lecturer said that part of the joke of ‘Nobody/Noman’ is that it sounds very similar to the word metis, or ‘cunning intelligence’.
So the idea that Odysseus, a man so cunning he could become Professor of Cunning at Oxford University he might be a child of Hermes, might hear a prophetess say that nobody will believe her and respond in a way where it’s ambiguous whether it means that he is the Nobody who will believe her, or that he is the personification of cunning who will believe her … it really does make sense.
Just to say fanfic writers think you're great! Keep doing what you're doing! (I haven't got a Tumblr that's why I'm anonymous)
Awww, thanks ❤️
Why do you have a tumblr if you don't want to chat with people? Sounds kinda stupid.
Okay 1) I have barely touched my tumblr in months and so this feels like a weird time to get this message, 2) I have happily chatted to anyone who’s tried to initiate a conversation for the last little while, so I’m not sure what this could be about, 3) is this like a broad spectrum negging thing? You send this out to a bunch of blogs in the hopes one of them will be insecure enough to pay some attention to you? If so, well done, it worked, I hope you’re very proud of yourself

The sheer energy. The beauty of this woman. The women hugging in the background. The man in rainbow parachute pants. This whole video is art.
XXI. The World
When discussing the life of Ada Lovelace, folks often mention that Ada’s mother made a point of educating her in mathematics and science in an effort to prevent her from turning out like her father, Lord Byron; it’s this upbringing which eventually lead to Lovelace’s pioneering work in computer science.
What folks don’t often mention is that after inventing computer programming, Lovelace went on to build a career using her newly devised mathematical theories to cheat at gambling, eventually ending up hilariously in debt as a result.
In other words, not only did her mathematical education fail to prevent her from following in her father’s footsteps, it only made her stronger.
