I think my least controversial opinion is that the best parts of Sense8 are when Sun and Wolfgang put their wee heads together with exactly one thought between them and that thought is "murder YES" and no amount of the other sensates saying "murder NO" can stop them

The “nobody” scene in the odyssey is absolutely not just a clever pun—it’s a character defining moment for Odysseus because he refuses to be nobody. He devised an incredible plan that worked and he could have saved his men and returned home much sooner but he just had to yell to the cyclops that he isn’t nobody—he’s Odysseus, king of Ithaca so now Poseidon knows who to curse which severely fucks up the rest of the journey.

The “nobody” scene highlights both Odysseus’s cleverness but also his arrogance and those two traits define Odysseus throughout the entire story. It’s a foundational aspect of Odysseus’s character and cutting the scene displays a shocking level of ignorance and disregard for the themes in the source material.

im currently completely losing it about the great stalacpipe organ. are you fucking kidding me they made an organ out of a CAVE???? IT TAKES UP THREE ACRES??? i legit am about to lose it

[planet4546b]

this is a comment left on a recording of moonlight sonata played on an organ that is literally made out of a cave and its making me so emotional its not even funny

[image id: a youtube comment that reads ‘wonderful…and the moon has never shone there…’ end id.]

[marlynnofmany]

All that and no pictures??

According to Wikipedia, it works by hidden rubber mallets on the naturally-musical stalactites that tourguides have been knocking on for over a century. The guy who made the organ may have gotten the idea when his son whacked his head on a stalactite.

Here’s a video. It is hauntingly beautiful.

"I've said this before but the most personal songs aren't the ones that recount actual moments from an extant past, not the ones that can fairly be called "confessional". The personal songs are the ones whose hurt is cloaked inside a story that hides it from the world. I wrote and recorded this not as I emerged from one of the most painful seasons of my entire life, but right in the middle of it. I had begun playing the piano because it made me feel better. It's certainly possible to interpret this song as political allegory but the better tack is to apply dream logic to it, because it emerged from me as a dream might: unbidden but welcome, just something that happened inside me once."

also according to michael collins when the three of them were discussing what neil armstrong should say when he first stepped on the moon, collins suggested armstrong say “Oh, my God, what is that thing?”  and then scream and cut out his mic.

Everyone forgets Michael Collins and it’s fucking tragic.
