The new Odyssey adaptation has inevitably gotten people talking about a Muppet version of it, and they’re frequently suggesting Kermit as Odysseus, Miss Piggy as Penelope.

I’m sorry but that’s thinking way too small, hear me out:

We need to have Miss Piggy as Odysseus, and Kermit as Penelope.

Think about it… who’s the more fickle, prideful, warlike one in that relationship? Who is absolutely ready to go ham, at a moment’s notice?

It ain’t Kermit

But who is the single human cast member in this tale? Who gets to put in an Oscar-worthy performance alongside the Muppets and what role are they to play?

There’s no single human, everyone is a Muppet except for one scene. Circe, played by Janice, turns Odysseus’s crew into humans who still behave animalistic and are all played by Academy Award winning actors.

One of the most glaring themes in Is God Is is the way his sons fight tooth and nail to uphold his tyranny. The fight to uphold the patriarchy they are bound to inherit and benefit from, despite the destruction it does to their own mothers and sisters.

Ezekiel didn’t even know his father, but he was prepared to commit murder in his name. Because that’s his God. All he knows of him is the altar. Just like the biblical story of Ezekiel, he believes his dad is coming back/there will be restoration. Despite being so clearly exiled. And he’s ready to kill about it. While Riley was choking out Anaya, he made sure to let her know that he didn’t care what his brother did. The twin brothers probably knew their mother was being abused but their alliance is with the patriarch.

Even the lawyer! He was very much assaulted. I mean that man took his tongue, literally and physically. Instead of seeking justice, he waits for his death. It doesn’t occur to him that he could challenge him. He just accepts this order and only hopes to die with dignity. There’s another layer about how he is a representative of the justice system itself.

This movie man!

I lack perception of time so you could legit walk up to me and say "Hi" after 3 years and I'd be like "aww I missed you. we talked just last week :3"

I feel like a lot of Gen Z don't know that the ACA/Obamacare was the compromise.

The Democrats wanted Medicare for All. The Republicans wanted Free Market Healthcare (aka poor people die). Obama took a plan initially conceived by the Heritage Foundation (those project 2025 fuckers) and implemented by Romney for Massachusetts to say "hey, you can have a little free market, but we gotta cover other people too".

It was already a compromise. And the Republicans lost their shit and have proceeded to spend fifteen years crying about their own plan being rampant socialism and repeatedly trying to repeal it despite never actually having a back-up plan for healthcare, simply because they never really wanted compromise to begin with. The moment Obama got elected, they got into a meeting and vowed to tear down everything he tried to build no matter how much it agreed with their so-called values. Because racism, let's be honest, but also because any compromise they put forward is just a show.

"Meet me in the middle, says the unjust man" isn't just a hypothetical. It's literally what happened when we tried to meet Republicans in the middle with healthcare.
