Penelope is also Athena's pet/blorbo/special little mortal/etc. and if you think otherwise you're straight up wrong.

You're also wrong if you think Athena only likes Penelope because of Odysseus and/or Telemachus. As if Athena didn't see a young Penelope pull some shit and immediately think "Oh! Another mind to mold! C'mere you! Let's do some riddles and weaving!". Athena was happy that two of her favorite pets have met and fell in love!

Wanted a cover for my 'I could see Stiles listen to this' playlist and since it can't be a gif - in which case it would have been this one:

- second best was a redraw of the lofi girl although the playlist is probably as far from lofi as you can get LOL

Link to playlist under the cut for those curious:

I've listed the ones I've done art for at the beginning but from there on I've just been adding whenever I came across something from my own liked songs that I could see stiles jam out to. Best on shuffle!

It ended up with so many of my hype favorites hahaha. if you put this on, say 'actually, what would realistically happen in this scenario is...' in the mirror 3 times and open a can of coke, you'll summon a ghostly apparition of me that'll poorly but enthusiastically dance in your kitchen.

this is their dynamic, and you literally can not convince me otherwise. She made all the moves. This man stood still. Wimp.

Okay so with the line "the olive tree where we first met" we have two equal hilarious options.

When penelope was sassily like oh I'll marry you if you make a living bed out of this tree right here! Cue penelope stumbling over odysseus very very carefully digging up the tree "because how else is he going to get it to itacha we can't have a wedding bed out in the open in sparta duh"

Or

2. Penelope, knowing that Helen's suitors would soon be arriving to take over her home for a while. Snuck out and went on her own wacky shenanigan filled journey where she scoped out all the major players. Odysseus caught her spying in an olive tree. And when she got back she told Helen she had dibs on the cutie from itacha.

Vengeance Saga is coming out in a day and I would like to say something regarding I’m Not Sorry for Loving You

I better not see anyone using that song as an excuse for Calypso. That song is an explanation for her character, not an excuse. The song is literally about how she’s not sorry for trapping and unintentionally abusing Odysseus for seven years.

It’s not an apology (Literally in the name. If it was then it’s a pretty bad and victim blamey apology), it’s not an excuse, it’s just an explanation. And I will be damned if people use it to excuse her, gods know there’s enough Calypso apologist in the Epic fandom and just in media related to the Odyssey in general.

So this is what I did with the Sheet Music from the two Instagram accounts.

I tried to make it kinda whimsical and space-y, it'll let you be the judge if I nailed it or not

huge shoutout to @crooked-hourglass for their arrangement of the notes and of course to Sleep Token themselves for this absolutely gorgeous melody.

My brain is being mean today, so would any of y'all be interested in an AU where I make Zeus even worse than usual?

I have this vision in my head of where when Athena is born, Zeus, upon remembering the prophecy about how she'll be be better and smarter than him and Metis combined, basically decides to make her into his own personal weapon so she'll never try to overthrow him.

He does this in secret so that his brothers and the rest of the council won't realize what he's doing and try to turn her against him. It ends up turning into a sleeper agent/winter soldier kind of situation, with Athena basically blacking out when he gives her certain orders.

Pallas's death is one of those orders.

More, including Apollo and Athena angst, under the cut!

And up until God Games it works really well for him, but when she defies him over Odysseus he reacts the way he does in most of my fics and gives her brain damage.

From there, because I love me some angst, he brings Apollo into the same kind of training, basically wanting him as his own personal healer and a way to get his weapon back to full health more quickly.

But pulling in Apollo turns out to be a massive mistake on Zeus's part, not that he realizes it at first, because Apollo is kind to Athena in a way that no one else on Olympus has ever been. He talks to her, heals her, treats her as her own person and not an extension of Zeus.

Athena latches onto him hard, the two of them becoming extremely close and protective of each other.

Zeus actually makes things worse for himself on that front by further isolating the two, basically setting them up in public to be seen as his favorite children and turning the rest of their siblings against them.

Eventually, several millennia later, Zeus gets so out of hand that even Poseidon, Hades, and Hestia(though not Hera) agree that he needs to be brought down. So they call a meeting with the rest of the Olympian Council to decide what to do.

Apollo and Athena are in attendance, but they're both extremely worried about what Zeus will do to them if these efforts to overthrow him fail and he finds out they were part of it.

Aphrodite ends up using her charmspeak on Athena at some point* and Apollo freaks the fuck out upon seeing Aphrodite make Athena 'Go Gray' as they call it.

*Not sure why yet.

Apollo shoves Aphrodite away from Athena and it breaks the charmspeak, waking Athena from her trance.

Athena then also freaks the fuck out, asking Apollo what she had done in a total panic because holes in her memory never mean anything good for anyone.

Apollo calms her down, tells her what happened in detail, then flashes them both out.

Chaos descends.

Apollo pops back in 10 minutes later to threaten Aphrodite into never doing that to Athena again.

And that's all I have so far, but I'm working on more

Physical media seems to be making a resurgence. While I won't use full-on CDs, I'm finding it much more fruitful to use localised content instead of streaming services. I have an entire folder of BPM-sorted music that I will just go through. Today I learnt Bash to make a really simple shuffler.

This is all that's needed to shuffle a playlist. A playlist is a file that just has a list of file names.

I think Linux's environment is perfect for this. For one, Bash supports wildcards, so you can do "directory/*" to add all files in that directory to the playlist. The cat command also allows you to pass multiple files, so you can merge multiple playlists together just by passing them as arguments. Symbolic (or even hard) links mean you can have a directory of files for a collection without taking up any extra space because of duplicates. Lastly, a more cosmetic feature, unlike Windows, which discerns file types based on extension, Linux (and Linux programs) discern file types based on content, so you don't even need an extension on your files for this to work.

Other than that, I think this solution is also good all-around because you control everything. You aren't limited to what the streaming service provides. You can support the artists on Bandcamp to get .flac files, which are generally the highest quality kinds of files you can get, it doesn't need any internet, and it's completely free (barring audio acquisition). I might work on a local audio player for mobile. One probably already exists, but I'd like to take a stab at it.

Anyway. What's everyone else up to tonight?

[problematic-aroace]

I'm 100% convinced that whenever Bruce does something to piss of the batsiblings the batsib in question will go straight to either Dick or Steph. Why?

Those two will give Bruce the whiplash of his life.

Jason tells Dick that Bruce uncannily brought up his death to get info off him(It was exagerated Bruce just came into Jason's apartment to ask for help while J was not in the mood lol.) Dick usually starts a screaming match with Bruce. Bruce is brooding for the rest of the day.

Damain tells Steph that Bruce told him something along the lines of 'shouldn't have expected more from an assasins son', Steph goes and punches the dogshit out of Bruce before she even thinks before getting into a yelling match with him. Bats is brooding for the rest of the week.

And if I said that the more interesting conversation is how interesting it is that Sabrina had been in the industry for 10 years had been putting the work in but only really like astronomically blew up when she started making the overly sexual nonsense outros? How the more into the blonde nymphette aesthetic she leaned into the higher she climbed specifically on the more sexual aspects of her persona. How the more interesting conversation is that society likes and actively encourages celebrities to sell them sex but only ever up to a point. Only until the imaginary arbitrary line is drawn in the sand and suddenly it becomes too sexual.

Same thing happened with Sydney Sweeney she rose to fame on Euphoria you love Anyone but you with all the bikini shots and sexy scenes and then didn’t engage with her character in white lotus or anything else Society was determined to turn her into a sex symbol and now she’s leaning into the joke of it it’s a problem. Same with Megan thee Stallion and Cardi B they came out the gate talking about how much they love sex we loved how sexually aggressive they were but then W.A.P comes out and suddenly you’d swear they have never mentioned sex before the way people reacted. Same thing with Ice Spice I don’t think at any point people really thought she was a good rapper but it didn’t matter cause she was fun and sexy but now she’s no longer fun so it’s bad that’s she’s sexy. It’s a tale older than Marylin Monroe.

And there’s the problem society wants female celebrities to sell sex as long as it’s fun and wink wink and we get to be in on the joke. But the moment it’s not the moment that it might seem that they actually like it or want to play into it, then we cant have that.
