HEY HEY UM. ARTISTS.

You know "Epic: The Musical"? And "Thunder Bringer" song ?

Take the line "pride is a damsel in distress" but interpret 'pride' as Hubris/Hybris . Like the god. Or common Greek falling , trope.

Okay, now take a character you like who has done something fucked up and wrong . Put them in the position of Odysseus , aka the subject of the song.

Perfect! Just like that! What... Pose? Do you use for Hubris? What pose should I use for Gambit? In a very particular AU .

I'm drawing some art. And need more ideas. There's no easy find full body image of hybris goddess. Any ideas Tumblr inas have for me. All good. Please share. Also if you take this concept with your own character ideas. Please show me. Thanks

Enjoying!

Me, high of my first successful cosplay/historical costume: Listen! Listen, how about a Mantua, this draped dress that's made out of a single piece of fabric, but it's red and has the cog-fringe of the AdMech? That would be amazing! I could make it out of a red-gold 2-ply silk dupioni, so it would be shiny!

LA HYBRIS DI GIORGIA MELONI VUOLE COLPIRE PURE IL PRESIDENTE DELLA REPUBBLICA SERGIO MATTATELLA.

Hybris è una parola antica. Un termine con una storia e un significato valido in ogni epoca e anche oggi.

I filosofi greci indicavano con questo vocabolo, il delirio di onnipotenza, la vera ubriacatura egocentrica con la totale perdita del senso della realtà, del potente di turno.

Vediamo il Dizionario:

Perchè questi episodi di egocentrismo non sono tipici solo del nostro tempo, ma anzi erano frequenti pure nell'antichità.

In una terra come la Grecia composta di tante diverse città-stato [ Atene, Sparta, Tebe e tante altre...] non era insolito che un uomo potente cercasse di assumere un potere assoluto sui suoi concittadini. Ed allora si proclamava dittatore e padrone assoluto della città, con il potere di vita e di morte sui suoi concittadini. E in questo slancio finiva per perdere ogni senso della misura e del limite.

Era cioè vittima di "Hybris".

Anche nel nostro panorama politico attuale è già capitata questa situazione con la parabola di Matteo Renzi prima e quella di Matteo Salvini subito dopo.

Ricordate il Referendum costituzionale di Renzi e la sua sonora bocciatura da parte degli Italiani? O il delirio di Salvini dal Papeete di Milano Marittima dove rivendicava per sè i pieni poteri?

Bene ora pare tocchi a Giorgia sbroccare completamente fino ad attaccare quell'uomo al di sopra delle parti che è il Presidente della Repubblica Sergio Mattarella.

Giorgia lo vuole coinvolgere nello scontro politico più basso e ignobile.

E' la cronaca di queste ore. Vuole infangarlo e togliergli ogni tipo di legittimità

Vuole portarsi avanti col lavoro, insomma, visto che il suo progetto di riforma Costituzionale il coseddetto "Premierato Forte"- sogna un Presidente della Repubblica non più garante degli equilibri fra i diversi poteri dello Stato italiano, ma esautorato da ogni funzione e ridotto a semplice "notaio" e passacarte.

Ma non finirà così.

GIORGIA se ne pentirà molto presto di questo suo giocare d'azzardo con un paese e un popolo intero e con la sua Carta Costituzionale.

Il resto lo lascio spiegare a Massimo Giannini.

this is extremely messy and certainly overdue BUT sin fam relationship chart!!

some notes (but not everything) under the cut

hybris is kinda similar to acedia in that she doesn't have particularly strong or notable feelings towards most of her family, at least not in ways that can be properly summarized. but she's oddly ok with avi's Everything, and she dislikes envy specifically because she thinks he's way stupider than he should be, and she dislikes lux because she thinks she's "filthy." (in truth, she doesn't like lux because she thinks that lux, by nature, is an incredible sort of being, and she's frustrated that her personality is what it is, and that lux "wastes" her abilities on pointless, "dirty" things)

avi thinks she and lux are lowkey besties, but lux is just kinda meh about avi--which, to be fair, is better than p much everyone else, who can't stand avi. notably, avi isn't fazed by acedia's lifestyle or what's happened to them--she says they had it coming, but it's fun that they kill so many humans

envy's a coward and he'd admit it after some whining, but he'd risk everything for gula and ira--maybe even others of his siblings

ira can't truly hate any of his family, but he is displeased with avi for actively harming others of their kind; they should at least leave each other alone, if they're not going to leave humankind alone

lux used to want to be close with acedia--in private, she's kinda in mourning about what they used to be. she's also meh about gula because, while she thinks she's cute/charming, she doesn't understand why she won't give in to her natural urges, like eating humans. if gula ever came to her to ask for help with that kind of thing, she'd be happy to mentor her baby sis

gula isn't even really a weakling but boy does most of her family make her super nervous!!!! she even used to be scared of ira, until getting closer with envy made her closer with ira too

having strong feelings about anybody takes a lot of energy, and acedia doesn't care enough to do so. pretty much everyone don't even feel like "family" to them. but they'll always, always be ready to call out hybris for being a terrible mother.

got questions about anyone specific?? feel free to inquire further c:

I'm slowly re-reading The Well of Loneliness (now in the public domain, eg at gutenberg) and there are so many fucked up things in it that I didn't notice when I read it first a long time ago. This is just an example.

Our protagonist Stephen visits her horse Raftery at their country estate and has a conversation with him:

[S]he threw her strong arm around his neck, and they talked together for quite a long while—not in Irish or English but in a quiet language having very few words but many small sounds and many small movements, that meant much more than words. ‘Since you went I’ve discovered a wonderful thing,’ he told her, ‘I’ve discovered that for me you are God. It’s like that some times with us humbler people, we may only know God through His human image.’ … She gave him a carrot, which he took with contentment from the hand of his God, and proceeded to munch. And she watched him munch it, contented in her turn, hoping that the carrot was succulent and sweet; hoping that his innocent cup of pleasure might be full to the brim and overflowing. Like God indeed, she tended his needs, mixing the evening meal in his manger, holding the water bucket to his lips while he sucked in the cool, clear, health-giving water.

Then in a later chapter Raftery is old is about to be put down by his God:

Stephen said: ‘I’m going to send you away, a long way away, and I’ve never left you except for a little while since you came when I was a child and you were quite young—but I’m going to send you a long way away because of your pain. Raftery, this is death; and beyond, they say, there’s no more suffering.’ She paused, then spoke in a voice so low that the groom could not hear her: ‘Forgive me, Raftery.’ And Raftery stood there looking at Stephen, and his eyes were as soft as an Irish morning, yet as brave as the eyes that looked into his. Then it seemed to Stephen that he had spoken, that Raftery had said: ‘Since to me you are God, what have I to forgive you, Stephen?’

The Lord doesn't care if I am a fag, but my hybris is sure the feat He might do something about.

L'héritage des connaissances dans les mythologies

La philosophie est mère de la folie Partie 02 Qu’est-ce que l’hybris? L’hubris, ou hybris, est cette façon de s’arroger le droit de se penser plus important que les dieux, terme que l’on pouvait entendre comme les forces naturelles déclinées sous des personnifications d’abord primordiales, puis de plus en plus spécialisées par destitution de certaines responsabilités, ou par…

Ad Mech Mantua: Project planning

I plan to share more of this project as it comes together. Maybe that's hugely overconfident of me, but I want to try at least. I planned to do this for my last project, the Houppelande, also, but then didn't because I felt my stuff was not good enough to show people.

Screw that! Be the fandom you wish to see in the world!

So these are all the garments I need to make to have this project come together. It's historical fashion, I have to get the undergarments right.

A chemise, not really special. Made out of rectangles, with nice big gussets under the arms. I plan to smok the front, both for decoration, and because I'm not fully comfortable showing my boobs. I have 3 meters of a thin, black cotton laying around, so that's gonna be a nice stash buster.

Next of course the stays. The pattern I'm currently working with is from Clockwork Fairy on etsy, seems to fit me pretty well. Nice to see a pattern that goes up to 4XL. This is already halfway done, I'm currently waiting for some supplies in the mail. It will have a zipper in the back for getting in and out of, and lacing in the front. I'm making it out of plain black cotton twill, ridges to the outside. I want it to be nice to the touch.

Padding. More fluff! Also pockets, but I haven't drawn them. They are just assumed.

Here it gets ambitious. I love the idea of a quilted petticoat. Because I like quilting and because with a mantua the petticoat is so nicely framed. I want to do something pretty there that's not just rows of trim. And I have these nice grey bedsheets with geometric pattern (Thanks Aldi). So trapunto? And of course it can't just be some gears, it has to be a functional diagram. Though I'm pretty sure this one I stole from pinterest doesn't...

Star of the show. I found a nicely patterned red fabric, that would maybe work, but it's polyester. I dislike polyester to put it mildly, but it would be very AdMech. Of course they use shiny, synthetic fabrics. I'm pretty sure I read something like this in the Skitarius novel. It may clash with the pattern on the petticoat and the smoking on the chemise, but all the patterns are square, so maybe it will work? The trim is a classic smoked trim that I'll slightly modify to evoke the cog design.

Lastly my favorite piece, the stomacher! Purely decorative, and decorated it shall be! I have so many beads and sequins and pearls and stuff lying around, not to mention the skull beads I made for the Houppelande and then didn't use. This is the truly hybristic bit. The bit that ties everything together.

I have already cut out the fabric and sketched the design. Omnissiah help me...
