Telemachus's life post-Odyssey has the potential to be so funny bc bro is suddenly going from the son of, essentially, a single mom to the son of two VERY in-love middle aged sweethearts who never had to learn boundaries about what is/isn't appropriate to say around their kid.

Penelope: I knew that "beggar" was you the whole time, you know.

Odysseus, laughing: Oh, really?

Penelope: You can disguise a lot of things, but I'd know that ass anywhere.

Telemachus: I am begging you guys to keep it in your pants for ONE family dinner.

#he secretly thinks it's funny and kind of endearing how much they love each other #there are just some times where he's like #can we maybe not do this right now #odypen #literature memes #tagamemnon #epic the musical #odysseus #classic lit #classic literature #epic #homer #homeric epics #the odyssey #the odyssey meme #telemachus #penelope

ngl, I'm beginning to take issue with how in conversations about anti-intellectualism almost automatically, the face of girls and women will be slapped on the problem.

#'all those tiktok girls who only like marvel films and' - why do you always say girls and women? are the guys filling opera halls instead?#'women in their mid 20s who still only read YA novels' okay sure that's an example and relevant discussions can be had #but it reminds me of the mocking tone in which people speak of 'chick-lit' to use women's interest as an indicator of lower value #while in fact women are reading more than men in EVERY single genre of fiction. Women are doing a lot of (often unpaid) labour #supporting libaries supporting theatres supporting cultural events #meanwhile there is a pretty big overlap between toxic masculinity and anti-intellectualism #(especially misogyny and homophobia)#especially when it comes to things like ballet or opera or musical or generally dance #in fact it is often the female investment in specific things that makes them less 'valuable' in general consciousness #for thousands of years the theatre was well-respected and a high form of art - and now it's a 'wife-thing'#the father who will teach his son that theatre and dance are for girls - how is that never an example for anti-intellectualism

question to my punk & goth friends out there - i saw this video saying that punk and goth are not music based subcultures and as someone who isn’t really engaged in either deeply i am so confused

here are some comments ???

#punk #goth #punk music #goth music #like??? i don’t think that’s true?? there is a big diff between liking gothic art and lit etc (like me) and actually being goth #but im not goth so idk #also i feel like if u hate punk music and just like the ideology maybe ur just a leftist 😭#im confused.#mossy posts #🌿

Truly no other fictional couple can match each other's freak like Odysseus and Penelope, because a normal couple reuniting after years apart would be hugging and crying, meanwhile odysseus is spying on her in disguise and she's gaslighting him to see if he knows about their marriage secrets

Like for a while there they were literally just both eyeballing each other distrustfully like:

#i understand WHY they were so wary bc they've definitely earned the right to be paranoid #it's just so funny how both of them mirror each other so well #meanwhile telemachus is IMMEDIATELY just like “dad's back and i love him btw 😃”#odysseus #homer #homeric epics #the odyssey #classic lit #classic literature #literature memes #epic #tagamemnon #penelope #odypen #epic the musical #source: @shut-up-hope on tumblr dot com

I want to strangle everything I see. I hate watching people fall in love & I can’t stop saying that because what I’m seeing is going to kill me. Do you see this? All purple meat & thick heavy life. I’ve been in love with you so many times.
