Odysseus with his head in his wife's lap, happily not paying attention to anything, humming one of athenas song and carving something
Some random guy: your majesty----
Odysseus: not bothering to sit up: whatever my wife decided is fine.
#the odyssey#epic the musical#Odysseus#Penelope#Odypen#Post-canon my beloved#Odysseus tried to hold court exactly one time before he 1. Realized he's very out of date with everything and#2. Remembered that these meetings sucked so much#Odysseus then quickly climbed into his wife's lap and was like penelopes been ruling for 20 years she's got this#The first time someone tried to insist that it wasn't acceptable for penelope to answer ody nearly killed the guy#Nobody tried to force the issue after that#The only time odysseus sits up to contribute is to be like 'no no we can take that route now I killed the monster that lived there years ag#This is not to say he isn't listening and paying attention! He is! He's just scoping everybody's out#Noticing who's more pushy when they're trying to deal with penelope than they are with him#He's got twenty years of politics to catch up on! And he's going to be sneaky about it#Odysseus post return gaining a reputation for being uninvolved and uncaring only to pull the rug out from underneither the other person#Penelope is a okay with this for many many reasons#First off her system is one of beauty and the fact that her husband didn't spend all her hard work to take back over the second he came bac#Is rare and penelope is grateful everyday for who she married#Second she gets to show off look at how well she did odysseus look at how clever she is ody ody watch as I scam these people isn't that hot#(It is and yes of course odysseus was watching)#Penelope enjoying how odysseus lays out over her like a lazy lion#It scratches her possessive side to show him off like this and she gets to play with his hair#Telemachus attending some of these meetings to learn (tm) and spending the whole time deeply embarrassed#Odypen being 🥰🤝 rat bastards in love

I'm so sick of this
When I open the app it's:
But whenever I click in my ask box it becomes:
#what are these asks that 'dissappear'#probably from accounts that were deleted (I kept getting scams all the time and I didn't have the time to delete them while on vacation)#but if that's the case. why does it keep showing me that I have way more asks that I actually do#not art#text#so frustrated#all of these except 1 are old stuff that I either posted simultaneously with other asks before (and I feel bad about deleting)#or were just. left in there#there's a hate anon ask in there. I might post a screenshot of it. kinda funny ngl#and another one that I'm legit not sure wth is happening in it

Why is it almost always the people whose work ain’t shit that have the most towering enormous ego about it
#this isn’t only about art by any means but.#most talented person you’ve ever met: idk maybe i should lower my prices. i want it to be as affordable as possible.#i really like your work too and will trade you 1:1 even though my time and material cost is significantly higher.#person who silkscreened a p basic design onto a cheap pillowcase that they ordered in bulk from a sweatshop:#i am going to ask 300 dollars for this and it doesn’t even come with an actual pillow insert#nice work if you can get it but personally i prefer not to be in business with scam artists so#my posts#like it’s always the person doing thomas kinkade knockoffs or who took up woodworking two days ago and drips woodglue absolutely everywhere#genuinely i am thrilled for you to develop your passion and craft! in order to do that you might also have to develop some humility tho

me, stupidly and weirdly resistant to listening to audio books vs reading a physical book for no real reason: man i wish there was a way to like, read a book while i crochet like i do with tv shows and movies and podcasts
#toy txt post#my reasons are irrational you dont need to try to talk me into it. i KNOW#its very silly of me#imagine how much reading i could get done. but alas. Feels Bad#even listening to a more. uh. Story type podcast or fiction like nightvale was a bit difficult to start for me. i like nightvale now i#listened. but i worry that is clocking in my brain as an Exception 😔 maybe it would be easier if i tried some nonfiction books? scary#i also struggle with single host podcasts apparently even tho im also ehhhh on the kind where the structure is the host Interviewing a#different person everytime? maybe it would be okay with a nonfiction audiobook tho cos it would be getting read by a narrator and not sound#so much like a guy ranting into a mic which makes me feel a little insane. altho propaganda doesnt necessarily always sound like a guy#ranting into a mic so idk. i could probably make it through if i can find a nice book about like. parasitic worms. i could tolerate#feeling like im falling into sigma male affirmations videos for worms i think. wormffirmations are allowed#*to clarify i dont listen to those but listening to better offline makes me feel like im morphing into the kinda guy who does and i hate it#which feels unfair cos he is RIGHT and the podcast is good but i need there to be like a cohost there to break the tension of the Ranting#sometimes he has guests on? but its not quite the same#i think the format i like best is either like 2 or 3 regular cohosts discussing things within a specific topic#OR. 1 host whos like infodumping to the other host who knows nothing about the subject. OR. 2 hosts info dumping to each other about#different aspects of the subject. OR. 1 host who brings on fun guests to infodump to them about a subject. and then obviously the subject#needs to intrigue me. ex. sawbones well theres your problem (I HATE THAT THIS ONE IS BEST EXPERIENCED ON YOUTUBE😭 I WANT THEM TO JUST DUMP#ALL THE SLIDES INTO A BIG BLOG POST SOMEWHERE AND I CAN CHECK IN AND FOLLOW ALONG THAT WAY WITHOUT HAVING TO HAVE MY PHONE SCREEN ON THE#WHOLE TIME!!!!!!!!! but. im listening for free so its unreasonable to demand more of them BUT ALSO I FEEL LIKE JUST COPYPASTING ALL OF THE#SLIDES INTO A BIG BLOG POST ISNT THAT MUCH MORE EFFORT THAN EDITING A WHOLE YOUTUBE VIDEO? WAAAAAH. THEY DONT NEED TO BE TIMESTAMPED OR#ANYTHING JUST THROW EM IN ILL FIGURE IT OUTTTTTT#anyway. also more than 3 hosts is really pushing my ability to keep track of voices.#anyway: sawbones wtyp tpwky behind the bastards scam goddess#(which is true crime adjacent but focuses mainly on scams and isnt copaganda and laci is funny and cool)#common descent pod completely arbortrary maintenance phase if books could kill#deep sea podcast has more bringing ppl in to interview them about shit than i personally enjoy but i put up with it cos i do like the hosts#and the subject

Hello, I know this is a long shot, but I am a citizen of Palestine in urgent need of help. I have type 1 diabetes and due to the current situation in Gaza, I am unable to get my insulin (Humalog) injection. I’m asking for your support to help me get just one injection today to save my life. I need financial assistance to purchase insulin for this week, and I still need $263. I apologize if I’ve already sent this request, but any amount you can donate would be greatly appreciated. You can find my donation link in my pinned post. Thank you and may you be blessed. ❤️🇵🇸
this is a very well known scam, disproved by very well known vetters
#and people still post it and when they're informed it's a scam they demand proof#1) it's available through putting the username into search. literally first post by kyra#2) that's not how you shoule treat verification. do you not care about the money that should go to palestinians at all? jesus.

Oh dear. I've never seen the ask system do something like this. I did read your inquiry and our systems are reporting you as a scam artist...
I'm sorry but... that's the lowest thing you can do.
You've taken advantage of the plight of a group of people in the Land of the Man Upstairs who genuinely need the help and are using the generosity of the people who ask us questions and read our blog to line your pockets or the pockets of your employers. That is absolutely shameful. I would reassess your life decisions very carefully.
As for those watching us in the Land of the Man Upstairs: We do recommend providing assistance to those that the system has reported to be a scam artist is pretending to be. There are people in that area that do need your help. That do need your kindness and generosity. Please make sure that any donations you make are to verified funding efforts or charities that are working to provide humanitarian aid, such as esims for Gaza, Doctors Without Borders, or UNRWA.
Please don't fall for traps like this. Your generosity is a gift and you want to use that gift to benefit those who are in current danger.
#⌈tell us all your thoughts on god⌋ ⋆❈⋆ ⌈answered ask ⌋#⌈tied to so many things⌋ ⋆❈⋆ ⌈the advisor⌋#look I was gonna answer actual asks. I have stuff from last week I still need to post.#but I actually got 1 of these scam artists and I couldn't help myself.#the Chronoverse says: from the river to the sea Palestine will be free

Greetings, heya! I’m really sorry if this seems weird but I really need your help. I’m trying to raise some funds for my little Maverick’s needs (my cat) 🥲 as we are hoping to save his life through amputation. Please help me share the post I made for him, I have pinned it on my blog. I’m praying that you’ll consider, and terribly sorry again for bothering you and for being this direct 🙏 take care!
hey, dont go to this persons blog
im not sure if youre real and i dont wanna be mean
so hey! getting asks like this is extremely suspicious! if you are a real person, i understand that youre probably very worried and desperate. natural response, i really dont blame you
however, you have had your account for a single day, and everything about the injury mentioned is extremely vague and not able to be verified. for both of these reasons, i find it hard to believe that this isnt sympathy bait aka a huge scam.
if you are real? im extremely sorry for you, but there are extremely better ways to go about this! im not an expert on these things (followers, feel free to add places that donation posts like this do better/are more accepted, i know theres various subreddits for this aswell), but sending people asks on tumblr is really not a good way to do it, as most people will automatically assume youre a scam. following a blogger directly after sending these kinds of asks to them is also kind of suspicious ngl
again, apologies if you are a real person, but im choosing to actually help if you are real by saying:
bloggers are going to think youre a scam when you do this. im sorry, but thats just the culture around here
#again dont go to this persons blog or reblog anything#im reluctant to block but i probably will later#this is like 90% probably a scam bbut im choosing to entertain it instead because 1: i think people need to think harder about the asks the#get and check for signs of scams#and 2: real people who are in need of help need to stop doing this because people are going to think you are a scam and ignore you#i already usually ignore donation posts. i have no way of donating being a minor. and that along with my reach being small and shit i just#dont yk?

Closing my inbox because the Gaza scammers won't leave me alone
#Now before you get mad going 'Gracie they need help!!!1!!!11!'#know that I have been scammed twice before a long time ago and am very suspicious of people asking for money#and people doing so while hiding behind a 'we need help' mask is both disgusting and very easy to make it work for them#esp since when I look at their blogs I cannot find anything vetted#my post#gracie talks#to be deleted

Hello, I'm from Gaza, my little daughter Nour has hydrocephalus and seizures, we are now in a tent in very bad conditions, and every thing destroyed our house, hospitals and physiotherapy centers 😔 I'm waiting your reply hope you will support Nour as she's a palestinian child needs your urgent help because the seizures attacks have increased, and hospitals don't receive her because of the huge number of injuries and martyrs. She must see a neurosurgeon soon to adjust the doses of the antiseizure medications. Also she needs CT scan and MRI to ensure that the shunt is working well. She also needs to continue Physiotherapy ASAP and Occupational therapy sessions to enable her to stand and take her first steps. Please support my campaign because Nour needs special care out of Gaza war, 🙏💔
I'm sorry, I can't help you.

Did you know you can report fake job offers to the Better Business Bureau?
They're not really clear on what a "fake job offer" is, but personally, if you're shown an ad or "job listing that might interest you" by a site like Glassdoor, and it doesn't seem to be real, I would consider that to be being "approached about a fake job offer."
Now, the company who posted the listing isn't the one that "approached" you, but the one running the website is. I wonder what would happen if the BBB started receiving a bunch of scam reports about all the fake job listings on those sites.
Anyway, if you think you've been targeted by a scam, you can report it here:
