"Silently we went round and round, And through each hollow mind The memory of dreadful things Rushed like a dreadful wind, And Horror stalked before each man, And terror crept behind."
-Oscar Wilde, The Ballad of Reading Gaol, 1898
Vincent van Gogh. Prisoners Exercising, 1890.
#felt this was a good addition#it shows what he's describing#there were several verses about them exercising#but this one works best out of context I think#the whole poem is amazing though#i do recommend#vincent van gogh#prisoners exercising#oscar wilde#the ballad of reading gaol

Prisoners Exercising, or "Prisoners Walking in a Circle," as it is alternatively known, is an oil painting created by Vincent van Gogh in 1890 during his voluntary stay at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France. An adaption of an engraving by Gustave Doré, this painting embodies the emotional intensity and empathy that van Gogh was known for.
This painting depicts a group of prisoners, dressed in drab clothing, walking in a circle in a prison courtyard. There is one figure, however, that breaks away from the rest - a prisoner with a striking red beard. This deviation from the pack incites a stirring thought: could this be a self-portrait of van Gogh himself?

my upstairs neighbor is actually fucking insane and idk how im supposed to keep living like this 🙃
#it sounds like he's moving stuff and renovating constantly every day#like .... this is not normal and NO ONE would be able to be ok with living like this when it's been over a year of this#it's like that chinese torture method#when you're locked in a room and they let a bucket drip constantly non stop every day#the same noise all the time you cant escape will affect your psyche very negatively#like i cant escape because inside my own home i have to listen to some fucking crazy person#move stuff around all the time#and like i know he does illegal work and has a workshop up there but no one cares#like even if i'd contact the landlord office they wont care or do anything#so im just forced to live beneath some pos who makes noise... all day... everyday. it drives me crazy#like maybe some of y'all think im whiny or stupid or exaggarating but THIS IS NOT NORMALLLLLLLLL#you're not supposed to hear your neighbor have a workshop from home everyday all day#those noises drive me insane i cant live like thissssss i hate it#i dont like being a snitch or whatever but i've started to consider reporting him for the illegal work he does#but im not gonna bc they wont do anything#ppl are allowed to do whatever they want 💗#but if they drive you insane and you snap suddenly YOURE the bad guy and will end up in prison#everyone are insane i hate everyone im going crazy i fkn hate him so much#sometimes i consider just doing the deed and k wording him#then at least i will never be homeless bc i can live in prison. and i'll always have food lol#and i can exercise and write and read... learn languages. yeah sounds cool

opinions on helen of sparta being compared to prey animals? blink blink
*blink blinks back* Then immediately sits like this because of the question.
It's a good question that I'm happy to answer! It just makes me mad.... I sincerely hate the wording of "prey" being used to describe her.
SHE IS A VICTIM! THAT DOES NOT MEAN SHE IS "PREY"!
I can...see how people in ancient times may have used that word and still meant it in how she is a victim... but modern-day English-speaking people calling her that??? (considering how in different languages the word "prey" could have different meanings.) I'll just say that as someone who has been "prey" herself at one point, I REALLY hate that word as a descriptor. Just say victim or survivor. 👍
Honestly to call ANY victim "prey" is so fucked up. "Prey" to me, feels like "it's meant to happen." "Prey" are part of the food chain and so that's what happens. And to compare that to abduction and SA? Almost as if "that's our place"? It also kind of implies something being "eaten" or killed... Helen SURVIVES. She's traumatized and definitely needs healing and support but it's not like she can't find joy or peace ever again. Prey just feels so fucking gross.
Also, if someone calls victims "prey", I hope they know that Moose, Elk, Boars, Bovine, ZEBRAS, etc. are technically "prey". And these are VERY aggressive animals while still being "prey" for some other animals. And also that doesn't mean that "Oh, they're powerful! Clearly they should've been able to stop it." That's victim blaming :P
She is a clever, determined, caring woman who was ripped from her home for YEARS because Paris was a dipshit who decided he needed the prettiest woman in the world despite already having a wife. He didn't care about the fact that Helen didn't want to be there and was already married. He is so selfish that he will not let her go back even when THOUSANDS have died in the war! EVEN HIS BROTHER HECTOR AND PRIAM DO NOT BLAME HER! Granted, we do not know if Aphrodite would have let him undo their deal of "I want the prettiest woman" if he DID end up feeling bad for Helen and he wished to let her go home (I doubt it based on his personality though).
"Oh, if she is so independent/strong, then why didn't she just kill Paris and leave?"
AGAIN! Victim blaming!!! First thing, people who ask that have media literacy that is piss on the poor. You also have no idea about the political implications that would have happened if she DID kill Paris. She literally cries about staying there and argues with Aphrodite about seeing Paris, only to get strongarmed by Aphrodite as, guess what? A GODDESS WILL ALWAYS OVERPOWER A DEMIGOD. (This isn't Percy Jackson where he "killed" Ares as a 12 year old (Percy, you were my childhood, but that's bullshit.))
Even confined in Troy, she ARGUED with APHRODITE about going to see Paris! She is not some meek woman who just does as she's told with no pushback! She argued with a GODDESSS! Very few survive doing that!!!
She's not "Prey to fate", she's a "VICTIM of Fate".
#Thank you for the ask anon!!! :D It's a very fun question! I just really don't like the word of 'prey' being used to describe her.#...#Yes. there's poetic shit with writing. but if I heard someone say 'Helen is prey to Paris' I would be miffed and think that person's stupid#Prey just feels like 'one and done. You'll be a victim from now on and nothing else. You have no life after this.'#I mean you can probably say that if you simply mean that Paris is an abuser I guess. but...idk homies. I just really hate Helen being calle#that you know?#as if she could never be anything but prey in a way. as if she herself has never been the one pulling the strings or the trickster#Helen isn't a rabbit in an eagle's talons about to be eaten. She was a PRISONER. Who still lives and thrives afterward.#idk I'm probably looking too far into the word 'prey' and what it means to ME as an animal lover and survivor but it just feels#really bad to me. like wrinkling my nose and thinking 'out of all the words out there. that's the one you use?'#*sighs*#probably got quite fired up about this :P#ask#anon#yes I plan to write Helen as a big buff cheeto puff but again. she could never fight a goddess no matter how strong!! she's Mortal!#end of story!! I just want to write her that way as A.) it's fun. B.) Sparta upbringing.#(I got SUPER into ancient athletes stuff. (look up Pankration. it's so cool) and since I really love writing women. I just...like it :D#And no. everybody is strong in their own way even if they don't physically fight. I have plenty of women who are not fighters#but still have their own strengths and personalities and silliness#Leda actually doesn't like the 'exercising lifestyle of Sparta'. Ctimine loves running but that's it. Anticlea is the one who taught#Odysseus how to carve wood and is a 'trickster' but she's not really into athletic stuff. (she actually has a heart condition later on)#there's more too it but...tags are already long as hell#Mad rambles#shot by odysseus#my headcanons#kind of#If Helen is prey then she is “prey” like those clever mother birds who pretend to be injured to get predators away from their nest.#*shrieks into a pillow* I'm fine now :D#essay

I was worried about the existence of an episode of the maintenance phase about pilates because I like pilates and everything in this podcast is just cursed and awful stuff made by awful people and I don't want to do something made by a Nazi or whatever but now I'm just sad
#invented by a guy to exercise when he was a prisoner???? this is so sad wtf#it makes sense because the lack of equipment and focus on body weight etc etc but it's so sad#i hope I don't hear anything awful later and it keeps being just sad fjskd#it's also making me miss exercising so much i should probably try to get my mat and do something#i hope the app i used is still free because i want to do pilates now it'll probably help with my back pain#and also kill me because pilates is so fucking intense

idk if "imposter syndrome, but related to sickness" is an official thing, but I have it
#me in the evening:#'oh you're feeling faint and have to take a knee in front of everyone after some mild exercise? stop trying to get attention'#'you could have toughened it 1 min till you were alone'#me in the morning: pikachuface as I wake up with a nasty ass cold#me while talking to a friend: 'gurl u could at least try not to sound this sick you're overplaying it'#me trying to talk to myself out loud alone in my home: 'i'm really *am* hoarse uh'#life as a carrot#MY BODY IS A PRISON

⌖ Ah, I'm being #CANCELTHERADIODEMON'ed for gentrifying cannibalism AGAIN! How many times will I be cancelled for the SAME THING!?
⌖ If any dedicated members of the Alluminati want to use CIA revolution-busting tactics to SHUT THIS DOWN, go ahead! Get everyone BOGGED DOWN in DISCOURSE! The more GRASSLESS your reply is, the better!
#⌖ online#// she's imagining people responding with things like 'sinners can't gentrify things because they're prisoners. they're not privileged#people who can displace others. she's just committing lateral aggression' or 'accusing a redhead of gentrification is racist because#they're a minority. she probably got told she has no soul for being a redhead. so what if she's gentrifying cannibalism. does she have to#be perfect for you to exercise some racial sensitivity.' we still haven't established what gentrifying cannibalism is but it's#an actual accusation I saw someone leverage against someone else once. al's not sure what it means either.#Oh yeah 'get everyone bogged down in stupid discourse' is a punlished CIA tactic to divide & conquer.

It sucks so bad wanting to just run around through a field on all fours but damn human body isn't made 4 that
#i feel like. i want to exercise and exert energy but not in the ways my body were made to do. running feels bad.#lifiting feels bad everything feels like shit except maybe swimming but even thats not something we can always do#also swimming feels good physically but can be stressful because our only option is to go to public pools#and we dont always have the time#i just want to be free and my human body feels like a prison sometimes

Overtraining
I think I’m there, I think I’ve reached the stage that I’m doing so much working out that it’s now having a negative impact on my mood. Certainly, I don’t enjoy my cycling workouts anymore but it’ll be significantly reduced by this time next week. Physically my body seems to be coping well with the workouts, far better than I ever give it credit for. My hope for this week was to be able to run 3…
