it's so great that in greek tragedy there are only three paradigms for a woman leaving her house (her wedding, her funeral, and maenadic rites) and they're all kind of the same thing also

every woman in greek tragedy is simultaneously a bride, a corpse, and a maenad

I find it funny that "Odyssey" became like, a word you can use to just mean journey. Like imagine if you were having a family argument and said "ugh, it's such an Oresteia." Or "yeah we're honeymooning in Italy, taking a little Aeneid."

You should be outraged. You should be enraged and if you are not, if the senseless killing of the black community at the hands of our police force does not anger you please reevaluate your humanity.

To be unmoved by the current issues of our society is a privilege. To prioritize looting and damage to property over lost black lives and police brutality is to lack humanity.

Please evaluate and educate yourself, this is a major issue and we need serious reform and revolution in this country.

You can’t love the Romantics and academia and remain ignorant and complacent.
