I have zero proof for this but in the original Clash of the Titans, the city Andromeda is from is called Joppa/Jaffa (which is accurate in some sources) but in the remake she and her parents are rulers of Argos, which has zero mythological basis.

The remake is, in many ways what one would call “post 9/11 cinema” with its bland colors, macho man protagonist, Arab jinn sidekick etc. so it makes sense from them to erase Andromeda’s historical/ethnic roots, wouldn’t want to shine light on Palestine’s ancient history and culture bc Z*onists want to erase it.

Old Joppa, Israel, on the outskirts of Tel-Aviv is mentioned many times in the Bible, as this is where Simon the Tanner lived, Peter performed miracles, Jonah fled from God & the wood for the Temple of Solomon arrived in its port.

Acts 9:36 (NKJV) - At Joppa there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which is translated Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and charitable deeds which she did.

MINMIminotaur hates tartar sauce

“Ayo, Wyd?” - 10:07 am EST - Friday, August 20

I’m starting to notice a pattern with the past few albums I’ve listened to. MINMI was a feature of a Nujabes track (this one to be specific https://youtu.be/UQbcyOxqDFw) and I fell in love with her voice since that song. Now I first heard that song maybe 7 years ago and I’m finally listening to one of her albums. Truly blessed.

MINMI’s “Miracle” was released in 2003 so I was curious how she directs her voice by herself instead of just providing. And this being like a year before she hopped on the Nujabes track that made me even more curious. Well?

I was very surprised to see that it felt like a classic 2000’s pop album from the states. I don’t know what the pop scene was in 2000’s Japan but, this fucking banged. The tracks hit you immediately with her sass and confidence. Not o nay her voice, the instrumentals boom behind her like she asserting dominance. I wish I knew what the fuck she was saying. Regardless, I could tell she was saying, I was happy to finally be listening to the vocalist to one of my favorite songs.

TLDR: ion know what she sayin but boy it sounds good

Track list:

1. Into

2. The Perfect Vision

3. T.T.T

4. Home Town

5. Once Upon a Star

6. Eternal Destination

7. SUNSHINE

8. LOVE SONG

9. You need a…

10. カイラクノカナタ

11. Fly High

12. south orange

13. Miracle

(Side note: I don’t like the idea of number ratings so I’ll just show how many of the tracks from the album I added to my personal Spotify playlist, just for reference.)

When the angel who spoke to him had gone, Cornelius called two of his servants and a devout soldier who was one of his attendants. He told them everything that had happened and sent them to Joppa.
