#it was never that serious bless

You're still arguing with people that a man who is a dad that people want to fuck somehow is not a DILF?

Wow, you really don't handle being told that you're wrong very well. You should work on that. Especially because you're definitely wrong a lot on this blog.

au where Mu Qing had been offered different ways of cultivation, but he specifically and knowingly chose to follow Xie Lian's way of abstinence from wordly pleasures, because not that long ago he kissed Feng Xin and got very scared.

I saw it in your tag game post that you're also fond of the Apollo-Heracles conflict 👀 for a myth that appears in only a couple of sources, it sure has a lot of presence in the vase paintings (no seriously, everytime I think I've seen the last of it, I find ten more)

SO do you have any favorites among the paintings that represent this story??

OMG OMG THIS ASK IS A GIFT. IT IS A GIFT THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR LETTING ME TALK ABOUT THIS

I also think it's extremely interesting that it's a story so popularly portrayed by vase paintings and in such a variety of ways!! It's certainly one of the stories that gets left out of written compilation of Heracles' legend a bit (which is a shame, I think it's a fantastic story) but Apollo had a very peculiar relationship with Heracles in general that I just kind of find amazing (and very, very funny).

Apollo is not a god with any legitimate grudge against Heracles, but he does argue with the mortal a bit like he argues with his favourite brothers 😂Part of why I love the story of Apollo and Heracles fighting over the tripod so much is that it is such a little brother thing for Heracles to be upset with the proclamation his elder brother has given him and so, he throws a great fit, taking up the chair and declaring that he'll just give himself a better prophecy! And Apollo, instead of being a marginally professional big brother, decides to fight him for it until their father has to break up their cat-fight. Like was that not just the plot of the Homeric Hymn to Hermes? Is this not exactly how Apollo treated Hermes when he was a child and now those two are inseparable? 💀

Because of this, my favourite vase paintings tend to be the ones that highlight the personal squabbling between Apollo and Heracles the most. There are some very elaborate ones that have the full host of them - Athena, Heracles, Apollo, Artemis, usually a dog and a doe, I've even seen a couple that had birds and plants etched on them, but the simplest ones that show Heracles about to bonk Apollo with his club out of frustration or depict Heracles nyooming away from Apollo while Apollo (presumably) yells curses about how he's going to fling Heracles head first into Tartarus for daring to take his things? Yeah, those are the premium big brother/little brother things I'm looking for.

Also the one in the Theoi.com archives is a real classic - perfect energy.

obsessed with how marc's performance of celebrity has this kind of forced im normal im regular sheen to it sometimes that comes off as deeply vulnerable and trying too hard at the same time. his documentary where he tells everybody hes normal no really (conditions of normal: having family members and emotions) and then every other person interviewed is like hes an asshole hes insane hes the next virgin mary hes maybe icarus hes a wizard hes a workaholic and i dont know he does x y and z because it should be IMPOSSIBLE. like hes often balancing some degree of a lie AND often some of the most intensely intimate images ive ever seen come from a celebrity. literally inviting a camera crew to film him waking up from anesthesia. balancing "normalcy" with clear alien status as recognized by his peers. AND he'll drop ass to britney if given half a chance

People who truly dislike Edwina Sharma are wild. Heaven forbid an 18 year old be charmed after being almost relentlessly pursued by an older man. Three married women, including her mother, are for the match. THE QUEEN is for the match. The only person saying he isn't right for her is her sister and like I'm sorry but my sister could swear that a man wasn't that into me and I would not listen if he BOUGHT ME A HORSE!???!!?!!

new artwork and merch for the Medicos Pop Up Shop! and incredibly enough, they forewent adding Hayato and Takeshi in favour of Bel and Fran, and Ryohei!!! which is saying something, since typically Ryohei is never in merch lineups, let alone in favour of Hayato and Takeshi. incredible

Do you ever think about how serious young satoru looks and acts and talks and how even in his teenage years he holds himself like how he thinks an adult would, and then you see him as an adult being silly and filling every awkward silence with his voice and sprawling in exaggerated ways and you realize, this isn't what he's like normally,,, he does it so the kids don't feel like they have to act all serious and grown up, so they can have at least some of their childhood in comfort, so they can feel safe being themselves around him even if it means them calling him an idiot sometimes, he ALLOWS himself to be perceived like that for their sake

Sometimes i wish i had the drawing ability that i have now back when i was really into 4town at its height.

But then I realize that means that the fucktown boys would’ve definitely been drawn SO MUCH. So i think we should all be happy i was kinda shit at drawing then

was scrolling through an inactive blog looking for a specific post (that i didn't find ofc) and man. 2020 merlin tumblr really was something else we were all stuck at home with too much time on our hands and not using it to touch grass and it showed, and i mean this both exactly as (affectionate) and (derogatory) as it deserves. lord

I've just decided that the talking skeleton is not only a Jewish convert after connecting with their body's old life as a Jew but also a trans woman

Ok so for clarification, a Jewish man dies and is buried by loved ones. A necromancer uses his skeleton to create a minion, but the minion is for some reason or another eventually given a soul and free will, but is a completely separate consciousness from the original Jew. The skeleton feels bad about using someone else's corpse for their body, which probably leads to a whole Thing with suicidal ideation, but they eventually learn more about the Jew and they connect with him and his relationship with Judaism and they find reasons to continue to exist and eventually decide to convert to Judaism. Also! Although the original Jew was a cis man, the new soul turns out to be a woman, which she eventually figures out too.

I love her so much and I want to know more about her feelings about her identity what do you mean I have to make those feelings up myself I wanna talk to her

Never ever going to get over the fact that Namor looks so fucking good in Wakanda Forever. No other moment ever comes close to how insane I felt seeing him for the first time looking so regal. I’m just surprised I still have any sanity left.
