so if you didn’t know, last week rishi sunak was due to meet the greek prime minister to discuss — amongst other things — the parthenon sculptures that we've been hoarding in the british museum for a couple of centuries. rishi cancelled last minute for no good reason and one greek newspaper came up with a great response:

Hey #GreekMythology tumblr, I want ya’lls help on something :).
So, I’ve been thinking about starting this massive project. Like, would take years and years work of writing and research and sheerly finding the time and motivation for. And as I was thinking about the specifics, I thought: why not bring others into it as well? Because as much as I am interested in a lot of Greek Mythology, there are things that are simply not my interests and might cause writers block and my goal for the project would to be as fun as possible. So, here we are.
What is the project exactly? Well, hopefully, it’ll be a long Ao3 series/fic focusing on the individual perspectives of various figures/events in Greek Mythology arranged in (semi/good enough) chronological order. I personally intend to write for Poseidon in his/my version of the Titanomachy and (maybe) some events that follow, if you want a little bit of an idea on what I’m talking about.
The limits on this are almost completely free, all that I ask are that each of your submissions are one POV only (and by that I mean your main subject’s POV). Why do I say this? I say this because that is what I want this project to look like. It doesn’t matter if it’s First, Second, or Third POV along with all the other variants of those three, my main focus is on the individual experiences of these individuals. Kind of like character studies, if you know what I mean. I’m intending for it to be mostly formal but I will absolutely accept crack admissions that I will probably put into its own series to Separate the Vibes for whoever comes by :).
Ultimately, this is a completely open-ended project that has absolutely no deadline. I’m about to go to bed so I can’t go into too much detail, but if you want to DM me or send any asks, I am completely okay with that and we’ll all flesh out the specifics we go :).
What is my overall purpose? Not only is this project made for my own individual purposes of learning more about the gods and other Greek Mythology writers, but it’s also the chance to spread the word of other writers. I know how hard it is to get specific audiences, especially when you’re shy, so this is a chance for your work to be stumbled upon. Each post on the eventual Ao3 fic will include your socials, how to find you, and your other general works on either ao3, tumblr, wattpad, or other :)
Can you participate even without socials or a tumblr page? Yes you absolutely can :). My asks will always be open to anons and I will do my best to give credit when I eventually post everything :). If you want to post multiple submissions or simply just want a trackable (between works) name to your writing, just sign something at the end. It could be a name, it could be a potential username, I don’t mind at all :)).
How do I submit things? Well, the best way would be to DM me :). I have a personal writing email separate from most things that would be perfect to either share a google docs with or to just send a copy-and-pasted copy of it. Otherwise, I take asks. None of them will be posted unless asked or we’re ready to so it’ll be safe to just drop them off in! It’s also where I take questions :).
Any other things to note? I’d really appreciate some other moderators and editors :). There’d only be like two or three of each and we’d have to know each other decently well before officially starting, but some help would be appreciated! Also, I’d like to keep a working ‘spreadsheet’ of who’s working on what just for people to see what’s going on :). Maybe some people can collaborate or it’ll encourage those niche writers to write :). A third thing is that most questionable stuff is accepted. I’d personally rather not handle all those things other than posting it so it might be a while until I can officially accept (consensual and/or graphic) ✨spicy stuff✨ but, other than that, I’ll take any of it (also, it’s Greek Mythology, almost all of it already happened). If someone’s willing to take over the ✨spicy stuff✨ then please DM me so we can work out the details and see if it’s a nice fit :)
Honestly, that all should be it. The main point is that I’m trying to start up a long-term project on Tumblr and Ao3 about what is essentially Greek Mythology character studies that not only allows for mass communication across a wide audience, but also (hopefully) gets some recognition for the smaller writers :). Feel free to DM me or send me asks with questions but for now, I shall sleep
Tagging: @bluebellstudio @thirteen-deaths-later @0lympian-c0uncil @happyk44 @h0bg0blin-meat @sworeontheriverstyx @deathlessathanasia @gotstabbedbyapen. Sorry if I tagged you and you want nothing to do with it, I just wanted to get it out there /pos /gen

I have several pet peeves about pop discourse on greek myths, and the ones I find most 'most resist urge to scream in the tags' are:
Taking Ovid's 1000 year later alteration to Medusa's origin in order to make her a symbol of assault and loss of automomy whilst Danae and Andromeda's own cases of assault and loss of autonomy and Perseus' role in protecting them is swept under the rug for... reasons. Side note: Why do people dislike Perseus. He's genuinely just some guy. He's fine. His main motivation is to protect the helpless I mean come on.
Making the Hymn to Demeter about how Hades and Persephone's relationship was functional and healthy 'actually' and making it entirely about Persephone's independence (through the overbearing mother and sex=freedom tropes) and ignoring the woman who the story is actually about in the process.
Taking Calypso's rant about the double standard of male gods taking lovers and female goddesses should be able to do the same and that Odysseus doesn't deserve Penelope as a result where in reality Homer describes the man sitting crying on the beach every day for years wanting to go home to his wife but he is literally being held against his will be a goddess and the word 'forced' is used as in she is assaulting him ergo her rant ends up being less about the double standards of female sexuality and more "equality is being able to punch a woman after she slaps me" except its about raping mortals who have no consent to give.
Oddly, I think it's partially people having no idea what to make of mothers. They're in the way of the young women and their stories of sexual maturity. It is a similar thing to the Odysseus story. Young women and the sexuality at the expense of older men and women and the denial of their autonomy in return. It's all very radfem in tone in ways I can't quite verbalise.

Γράφω μετά από καιρό. Δεν ξέρω αν θα φανεί βαρύ ή ακόμα πιο πολύ δεν με νοιάζει απλά θέλω να τα γράψω. Μετά 2.5 χρόνια ξαναβγαινω μαζί της. Νιώθω τα ίδια πράγματα. Ανυπομονησία, χαρά, συναίσθηματα που άλλες δεν τα πλησιάζουν και έρωτα…Πολύ έρωτα. Κοιτάω κατάματα τα μάτια που με έκαναν κομμάτια και νιώθω ότι δεν έσπασα ποτε αυτό το «ποτήρι» που είχε γίνει θρύψαλα. Είμαστε πιο καλά από ποτε, ίσως νωρίς τα λέω αυτά αλλά νιώθω ότι μπορούμε.
Αυτή την στιγμή μάλλον την πήρε ο ύπνος και με άφησε με τα παράπονα μου. Βλέπεις αναζητάω την αγάπη της, την λίγο πιο ευαίσθητη εκδοχή της ώστε να νιώσω ασφαλής να της τα δώσω ολα! Σήμερα είπε μερικά πράγματα που με έκαναν να νιώσω ότι είμαι στον «αέρα» πάλι και ότι δεν ξέρει τι νιώθει. Θα μου πεις «αυτό από την μια μπορεί να είναι καλό. Μπορεί να αισθάνεται πολλά»… «Μακάρι» θα σου απαντήσω γιατί αυτό ήταν το παράπονο μου για σήμερα, ήθελα να νιώσω λίγο ασφαλής.
Τι θες να σου πω για εκείνη; Δεν μου φτάνει το ταμπλερ ολόκληρο για να στη περιγράψω. Τουλάχιστον στο πως την βλέπω εγώ. Θα σου δώσω μερικές λέξεις : αγάπη, ευαισθησία, απρόοπτο, κρασί και ένα «ΕΜΕΙΣ». Είναι η μοναδική που με κάνει να νιώθω ευάλωτος μπροστά της. Είναι η μοναδική που με κάνει να νιώθω. Θα μου πεις τώρα «είσαι obsessed», θα σου απαντήσω ότι της το έχω δηλώσει ανοιχτά ότι είναι η ΜΙΑ και τα ρισκάρω ολα δείχνοντας της το ποσό πολύ θέλω το μεταξύ μας.
Μετά από 3 χρόνια και κάτι είμαι ακόμα τόσο ερωτευμένος μαζί της. Υπάρχει κάτι πιο ωραίο; Σκληρός, περίεργος και κλειστός και μπροστά της λιώνω. Έτσι πρέπει. Συγνώμη στις κύριες αλλά θα πω κάτι που νιώθω πολύ καιρό Η ΑΝΤΡΕΣ ΟΤΑΝ ΕΡΩΤΕΥΟΝΤΑΙ, ΕΡΩΤΕΥΟΝΤΑΙ ��ΠΟΛΥΤΑ! Έτσι και εγώ αντί αυτή την στιγμή να έχω νεύρα που δεν μου γλύκανε τα σημερινά μου παράπονα, κάθομαι και γράφω το ποσό την λατρεύω.
Μόλις πήρα χαμπάρι ότι το δωμάτιο μου μυρίζει από εκείνη τόσο όμορφα. Συχνά μου λέει ότι είμαι «κλαψας» γιατί γκρινιαζω για να μου δείξει αγάπη ή και μερικές φορές στεναχωριέμαι από μικροπράγματα. Αυ��όν που λέει εκείνη «κλάψα» άλλες τον έλεγαν «δύσκολο, αναίσθητο, μαλακα». Η διαφορά απόστασης αυτών των δυο είναι μεγαλη. Αυτήν την διαφορά μπορεί να την εχει μόνο εκείνη. Να αγαπάτε ρε φιλε, να νιώθετε στο έπακρο και να τα γαματε ολα για το μεταξύ σας.
Με έχει ακούσει ο πατέρας μου να κλαιω για εκείνη. Τι να σου λέω τώρα δεν το χωράει ο νους μου. Κοιτάω να κάνω ότι περνάει από το χέρι μου για να είναι χαρούμενη. Για να βλέπω αυτές τις ματαρες που εχει να λάμπουν καθώς χαμογελάει και όχι να θολώνουν από το κλάμα. Άλλωστε για αυτό έχω μπει στη ζωή της, με κύριο λόγο να την κάνω όσο πιο ευτυχισμένη μπορώ. Έχουμε τραγούδια που ακούμε και σκεφτόμαστε κατευθείαν ο ένας τον άλλον.
Τώρα που ξεκινήσαμε πάλι να βγαίνουμε το είπε και στη μαμά της! Τότε δεν το έλεγε υπήρχαν πολλά στη μέση. Για εμένα ήταν ΑΛΜΑ. Όταν μου το είπε ντράπηκα λες και είμαι μικρό παιδί. Όταν μου είπε «κάτσε να σε βγάλω μια φωτό να σε στείλω στη μαμά μου να σε δει», αγχώθηκα τύπου…ΟΥΑΟΥ! Ελπίζω να είπε καλά πράγματα γιατί η μαμά είναι μαμά παίζει πάντα ρόλο και μετράει η άποψη της. Νιώθω οτι ολα θα πάνε καλά ή έστω ότι πλέον πάνε πολύ καλύτερα.
Με απόλυτη ειλικρίνεια για εκείνη…
Την αγαπΑω.
(Πάω να της πω καληνύχτα)

IT CUT OFF HALF OFMY TAGS NOOO
me: *reads over symptoms of autism once again* “see but i don’t get upset over changes in routine, we change the routine all the time and i’m totally okay with it!”
also me since i was a kid: *gets irritated, stressed, angry, aggravated, and depressed for the rest of the day after something is switched to another day* *gets angry, stressed, and depressed, and has a breakdown when i find out we have to cancel plans, even if i didn’t really wanna go to wherever we were planning to go* *gets aggravated and is easily upset and is depressed the whole day after i get to cancel something that i had been planning for but also are relieved that i don’t have to go since i really didn’t want to* *is depressed, angry, irritated, and stressed after we cancel plans that i had zero feelings for up until that point* etc.
#<- I have to say that some of your tags were honestly heart-breaking near the end because I absolutely don't want to ignore you#<<< thank you for being willing to helpme it was not agiven and i'm genuinely sorry they were heartbreaking#and there was the possibility you'd ignore me also because i randomly started telling you things about me without asking if you were okay#with it or giving you a choice whether to listen to me or not in the beginning. i just started saying things so yeah#In fact#If anything#I was terrified that I was being too blunt and that you would hate me for it#<<< no no i wouldn't hate people for being blunt we just communicate differently sometimes but i'm often blunt as well#would never hate people for being blunt instead thank you for the help you're offering me#I am going to try to answer your questions in as much depth as possible and to the extent of my knowledge#Honestly#As I do more research on neurodiversity I will try to keep you updated because I think that might be helpful for you#<<< thank you you're a very kind person genuinely thank you#Also#Apologies for the delay in responding to this but I was trying to answer some of the asks on my main about Greek Mythology and it got late#Not me randomly typing out a whole entire essay on one of my major interests past 11 pm in just slightly more informal English than usual#<<< don't worry i completely understand that i sometimes do similar things as well lol plus people have things to do it wouldn't be right t#ask them to be online constantly. if anything it would most likely be harmful to be online constantly#<- Okay that is absolutely fine#I will try to explain it as much as possible#Masking is common with many neurodivergent people and it essentially involves acting more neurotypical#Ergo hiding some of the person's symptoms which often means that the person would not have to face continuous disrespectful comments#Such as 'you're so loud/annoying' or things more like 'you only ever talk about [your special interest (s)]'#Often#Masking is not even something that someone does on a concious level#Sorry I don't know if I am explaining this very well but masking often does lead to burn out because it tends to take a lot of effort#<<< oh okay thank you for the explanation!#If I were you#I would try and look into examples of (autistic) masking on a platform like Pinterest#This would include things such as forcing eye contact and sometimes ending up staring

Καλησπερα κόσμε!
Θα τολμήσω να γράψω ότι μετά από χρόνια είμαι σε θέση να πω ότι αυτή την πρωτοχρονιά θα μου λείψει ένας άνθρωπος από την αλλαγή της χρονιάς! Ευτυχώς όλοι είναι καλά, θα μου λείψει γιατί θα ήθελα πολύ να ήταν δίπλα μου. Αυτό το άτομο το ξέρετε από το προηγούμενο «ποστάρισμα». Και αφού όσοι διαβάσατε το προηγούμενο ποστ καταλάβατε για ποιον λέω ή μάλλον ΠΟΙΑ λέω.
Ναι είναι ο άνθρωπος που μπήκε στη ζωή μου ξανά και με έχει κάνει να ξαναεχω αυτό το συναίσθημα του «θα ήθελα πολύ να είναι δίπλα μου τώρα γιατί είναι κομμάτι μου». Βέβαια έχει πάει με τους δικούς της στο χωριό. Η οικογένεια είναι πάνω από ΟΛΑ! Δεν υπάρχει γκρινια, υπάρχει αυτό που είπαμε: ανυπομονησία, αγάπη και πολύ πολύ χαρά για το νέο έτος που θα μας βρει μαζί.
Μου δίνει δύναμη να πολεμήσω ότι θα φέρει το 2024 αυτή σκέψη. «Θα είμαστε μαζί» τι άλλο να θέλεις; Τι άλλο να ευχηθώ μόλις αλλάξει ο χρόνος πέρα από «υγεία σε όλους, τυχη και δύναμη»;
Θα ήθελα λοιπόν να σας πω δυο πράγματα για αυτές τις μέρες. Περάσαμε ένα μικρό ΣΟΚ στη «σχέση» μας αφού υπήρχαν κάποιες σκεψεις. Με ωριμότητα, σκέψη και αγάπη ολα έφτιαξαν και λύθηκαν στο κεφάλι μας. Να δίνετε χρόνο στον άνθρωπο σας· και εκείνος να μην τα παρατάει όταν έχει σκεψεις αλλά να κάθεται να βρίσκει λύσεις ΜΑΖΙ ΣΑΣ. Ότι «χαλάει λίγο» μην το πετάτε, να βρίσκετε τρόπο να το φτιάχνετε γιατί αξιζει η προσπάθεια.
Θυμήθηκα κάτι που επαθα σήμερα το πρωι και γέλασα! Ξυπνησα μόνος μου 07.00 το πρωι αλλά δεν είναι αυτό το θέμα. Το θέμα είναι ότι ξυπνησα και κοίταξα δίπλα μου και δεν την ειδα. ΤΗΝ ΕΨΑΞΑ για δευτερόλεπτα. Έχω συνηθίσει να ανοίγω τα μάτια μου κι να είναι εκεί. Θα ξανασυμβεί το μόνο σίγουρο αλλά κατάλαβα το ποσό θέλω αυτό το πλασμα, αυτή την γυναικα, αυτόν τον έρωτα.
Παιδακια μια ευχή από εμένα για το νέο έτος!
Να έχετε υγεία πάνω από ολα, τυχη, αγάπη και πολλά πολλά χαμόγελα στη ζωή σας! Εγώ τα έχω και τα εκτιμάω και θα προσπαθώ γ αυτά.
Καλή χρόνια σε όλους!

Greek Prime Minister visits India after 16 years, meets with Prime Minister Modi to aim for doubling bilateral trade by 2030.
Tumblr media
Prime Minister Narendra Modi warmly greeted Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis as he arrived in India on Wednesday, marking a significant moment in bilateral relations after a 16-year hiatus. Both leaders viewed this visit as a momentous occasion. They engaged in extensive discussions at Hyderabad House, focusing on strengthening ties across various sectors such as defense, security, trade, and investment.
Prime Minister Modi expressed his satisfaction with the ongoing talks, particularly emphasizing the need to finalize agreements on mobility and migration at the earliest to enhance people-to-people ties. In a similar vein, Prime Minister Mitsotakis expressed optimism about reaching crucial agreements, highlighting the progress made since the joint declaration signed in Athens.
The leaders also discussed the goal of doubling bilateral trade by 2030 and identified numerous areas for collaboration, including startups, shipping, defense, and counter-terrorism. They reaffirmed their shared commitment to fighting terrorism and emphasized the importance of enhancing cooperation in higher education.
Additionally, they acknowledged the upcoming 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations between India and Greece and outlined plans to showcase their common heritage globally. Greece's decision to join the Indo-Pacific Oceans Initiative was welcomed by Prime Minister Modi, who stressed the importance of dialogue and diplomacy in resolving disputes.
Prime Minister Mitsotakis voiced support for India's candidacy for the UN Security Council and underscored the need for UN reform to reflect evolving global dynamics.
The visit, accompanied by a business delegation, underscores the deepening strategic cooperation between India and Greece. It marks the first bilateral visit by a Greek Head of State/Government to India in 15 years, signifying a strengthening of ties between the two nations.
Furthermore, Prime Minister Mitsotakis commended India's role as a stabilizing force in the Indo-Pacific region and emphasized the importance of international partnerships in addressing global challenges. The visit concluded with a ceremonial welcome at Rashtrapati Bhawan and Mitsotakis' participation in the 9th Raisina Dialogue as the Chief Guest, where he delivered a keynote address.
