*tumblr person voice* i wish that this story about horrors of war didn't depict how war affects women because it makes me uncomfortable

[vyvilha]

the poem literally starts with "so this guy we are going to talk about is Not a good person and he brought unimaginable suffering to countless people in a meaningless war" and the people are surprised when the suffering he brought IN A WAR includes rape. because women famously aren't raped in war. i am sorry, i love achilles, he is one of the most interesting characters of ancient literature to me, but it is a very important part of the narrative that he is cruel, ego-driven, rageful and violent, and it's THE THING that makes iliad interesting. like genuinely, if you're not interested in ancient reflections on what the realities of warfare are, what are you even reading it for

[deceasedcardinal]

Quick someone write a feminist retelling of the illiad featuring no women at all within the story

just wrote a massive comment about Hamilton’s efforts at his Manumission Society, education for black and indigenous children, his defence of poor people and black individuals pro bono etc etc. Somebody replied to me saying “you got all your information from the musical!”…

tell me where exactly the musical says any of that (they deleted their comment before I could respond ofc)

Guys! Athena’s beauty routine finally dropped! source

So here’s what you have to do if you want to have perfect skin while keeping that alpha grindset:

Wash your horses first even if you are caked in blood and dirt

Wash your mighty arms

Don’t use Perfume, rub yourself with manly olive oil only

Don’t do make up, don’t even look into a mirror, you already have a chiseled jaw and flashing eyes

Instead run 120 laps around a racetrack to give your face a natural blush

Comb your hair with a golden comb

Now you’re ready to compete for a golden apple
