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.
holy shit.

'T'was The Night Before Hockey
T'was the night before hockey, and all through the land
Not a skater was stirring (for fear they’d get banned).
The sticks were all taped and the goalie pads shortened
And Byfuglien was finally gone from Tim Horton’s.
The players and coaches lay snug in their beds
While visions of trophies danced ‘round in their heads -
Of Vezinas and Harts, of Conn Smythes and Rockets
(though others just hoped for big checks in their pockets).
And the fans lay asleep, oh the dreams that they dreamed!
Of cup-winning squads, and Bettman getting creamed!
The refs all praying, as they tossed through the night,
That just one single game, they might get it all right.
And I had lay down, to catch a few z’s,
When I heard a loud crash, and felt a chill freeze.
I leaped up from the mattress, and rushed down to the stairs,
Little expecting what I’d find to be there;
An impossible scene - why, I had to look thrice -
My living room’d changed into one made of ice!
An immense scene of sport, I knew not what to think
Of a commonplace room turned to huge hockey rink.
And more than just that (and so much much more)
The freshly done ice was hosting a war!
Two sets of men fought for that greatest reward
Stanley in their eyes as they leapt ‘cross the boards
I saw Sidney Crosby battling Claude Giroux
And the Great Gretsky deking one Mario Lemieux.
Brodeur (in young form) diving cross the crease
And Datsyuk’s stick magic ne'er ceasing to cease.
Karlsson streaked in from backline to score
But was rebuffed by the stick of Bob Orr.
I saw Coffey and Gordie and LaFleur and Yzer,
Among hosts of others, some younger, some wiser.
The greatest of greats, from future and past,
Oh would that I’d known that the scene would not last,
For then my eyes opened, and I saw the sun beam,
And I realized that game had been but a dream.
I near shed a tear in sake of regret.
What a game it had been, a sensation, and yet
I thought “What is there to be seen this new season?
Could there not be still better?” I reasoned.
And I say to you all, on this eve of goal lights:
Sleep well and dream, on this last of dark nights.
Prepare for great saves, chanting keep’s name.
Prepare for great shots, near alight with flame.
Prepare for great moves, that make d-men cry
Prepare for great passes, placed through needle’s eye
Prepare for great hits, a great sound like a crack
Prepare for it all, because hockey is back!
Today a little boy was engaging in “pulling pigtails” behavior, pestering a particular girl. I told her, and the class, that sometimes when little boys like someone they’ll act like jerks just to get their attention. The rest of the class hooted, the boy protested, and the girl grimaced and said she knew, her mother and older brother and old teacher told her.
I continued on to say that just because a boy likes you doesn’t give him an excuse to be a jerk, and you shouldn’t give them a chance to get your attention until they learn how to behave and her face was priceless. Basically, picture a tiny elementary school girl with red bows in her hair embodying the spirit of this gif:
The boy went super quiet.

OH MY GOD whyyyy did no one tell me you’re supposed to send thank-yous after interviews?? Why would I do that???
“Thank you for this incredibly stressful 30 minutes that I have had to re-structure my entire day around and which will give me anxiety poos for the next 24 hours.”
I HATE ETIQUETTE IT’S THE MOST IMPOSSIBLE THING FOR ME TO LEARN WITHOUT SOMEONE DIRECTLY TELLING ME THIS SHIT
NO ONE TOLD YOU???? WTF! I HAVE FAILED YOU. Also: Dear ______: Thank you so much for the opportunity to sit down with you (&________) to discuss the [insert job position]. I am grateful to be considered for the position. I think I will be a great fit at [company name], especially given my experience in __________. [insert possible reference to something you talked about, something that excited you.] I look forward to hearing from you [and if you are feeling super confident: and working together in the future]. Sincerely, @mellivorinae
THIS IS A LIFESAVING TEMPLATE
YOU ARE WELCOME
My brother got a really great paid internship one summer. The guy who hired him said the deciding factor was the professional thank you letter my brother sent after the interview.
should it be an email? or like a physical letter?
email, you want to send it within a few hours at max after the interview if you can so it’s fresh in their mind who you are.
Confirmed! I interviewed for a job right after arriving in NY. The interview went incredibly well, and I went home and immediately wrote a thank you letter and put it in the mail. I had a super good feeling about this interview.
I didn’t get the job.
However, a few weeks later, I was called in to interview with another editor in the same company, and I did get that job. I found out later from the initial editor (the one who didn’t hire me) that he had planned to offer me the job, but since I didn’t follow up with a thank you letter, he assumed I didn’t really want it. He offered the job to another contender–but when he got my letter in the mail shortly after the offer had already been made, he went to HR and gave me a glowing recommendation. It was based on that recommendation that I got called in for the second interview.
So: send an email thank you immediately (same day!) after the interview. If you’re feeling extra, go ahead and send a written one too. OR go immediately to a coffee shop, write the letter, and return to the office and give it to the secretary.
Either way, those letters are important.
Pro tip: If you really want HR to develop a personal interest in your application, publicly thank them on linkedin. Just make a short post telling your network about how X recruiter really went above and beyond to make you feel welcome, or about how be accommodating and professional they were, or whatever. Make sure to use the mention feature so they’ll get a notification and see it.
Flattery will get you everywhere… and public flattery that might make its way back to their manager, doubly so.
Obligatory plug for one of FreePrintable.net’s sites: ThankYouLetter.ws. They have a whole section with interview thank you letter templates, and a page with specific tips for interview thank you letters. (There are also tons of other letter templates if you browse around a bit.)
oh NO

In Infinity War, when the army in Wakanda is charging forward to meet Thanos’s army, you see Steve and T’challa fly past everyone because they both run super fast. But Bucky is just as fast. And Bucky was not with them. Bucky looked at the army of weird alien monsters and thought to himself “I’m not in any hurry to get to that. I’ll jog it.”
bucky: i never run towards danger, but a bitch might just power walk

MY WHOLE DAMN HEART RN
"Straight couples shouldn't be at pride"
Well uh…
1.) one or both of people you see as a “straight couple” could be pan/bi/poly/ace
2.) one or both of them could be trans or non binary
3.) you could be misgendering someone
4.) They could be there to give moral support to a queer friend or family member who didn’t want to go alone.
Number four is important
5. They could be there because they support the cause stop fucking gatekeeping
6. They could be there in memory of a loved one, don’t forget Pride used to be a memorial as well as a celebration. I know a good number of straight people who go to Pride to celebrate the lives of friends and family who have died because they want to remember them as they lived, happy and joyful and surrounded by a community that loved them.
ALL OF THE FUCKING ABOVE.
I just complimented my city’s Pride organizers for always defining Pride as celebration of diversity and advocacy for equality. Meaning EVERYONE who care about those two things are welcome. It’s not a exclusive club, it’s a movement to bring us together to work for better future
