Sally names Percy for the happy ending she hopes he’ll get. she spends hours researching demigods and their ends. Heracles, poisoned and given immortality as a leash. Bellerophon, revered for his deeds and killed for his hubris. Achilles, feared by all yet slain in battle. none of those would be her boy. She names him Perseus, for his successes and his long life, and she hopes it will help protect him, this name.
Percy is thirteen, recently returned from his first week at Camp, when Sally calls him by his full name. what had caused it, she can't remember. all she can remember is her strict, "Perseus Jackson––" and her son's poorly hidden, full-bodied flinch.
Sally knew––gods, she knew––that he would face hardships. she knew he would have to learn to fight, to protect himself, to kill––but that knowledge hadn't been enough to dim her hope. it was that flinch, that fear that he'd quickly cleared from his eyes at hearing his own name, that started to eat away at her hope like rot.

im noticing that for a lot of americans “free palestine” has been an ideological motto and symbol rather than them actually believing in their heart that freedom is attainable and necessary

The end of online privacy
Now, this isn't something I usually post about from my silly goofy k1nk account (reminder to minors to not follow or scroll this acount).
But I have more followers on here than main, and this is extremely important. Like, scary shit.
This applies to everyone. If you're reading this? It's going to effect you.
I'm sure perhaps some of you have seen around about a this thing going around... KOSA, is one of the ways it's being referred to.
If this shit passes, lemme tell you...
LGBTQ+ adults and minors seeking help and community,
people looking for abortions,
people organizing protests,
anyone using their free speech to voice concerns about injustices, 
even FAN ARTISTS...
Even people reading fan fiction...
And for the purposes of where I'm posting from... people sharing and enjoying their k1nks, wanting to post things with safety and privacy... smut artists and writers, people even LOOKING for smut...
It's all gone. No privacy.

Tumblr media
Here is a website where you can sign a letter just by filling out a form, (it takes less than 30 seconds) and where you can call reps.
I HIGHLY suggest leaving calls if you're able, and if you have phone shyness, do this after 6pm, since it will leave messages instead.
I'm shy, but I did it!
Here's another letter to sign, takes less than 20 seconds.
Here is a form you can fill out sharing how the social media has POSITIVELY effected you.

I love seeing female characters who fight...but I'm always wary when writers and/or fans begin to act like fighting is the only way a woman can be strong or hold power.
Also annoying when most of the more feminine characters are either bad or powerless (or at the very least perceived that way).
Femininity itself is not the issue. The problem is when gender binaries (and their associated behaviours) are forced onto people.

The post made by toughkookie88 made me think a lot about Percy and Poseidon’s dynamic in the books and why it works a lot better than it does in the show.
Yeah, I did like Poseidon showing sadness over not being there for Sally and Percy, but… Poseidon has had a lot of kids. A lot of them. And, while it must have been hard not being able to help Percy at all, because he had to pretend like he didn’t exist, the laws in place ensure that the Gods mostly have to leave their kids to their own devices, anyway. Was Poseidon also this way over Tyson, while he was living on the streets (He should have been)? Why does he keep having kids?
Also, it didn’t make a lot of sense for Poseidon to surrender. Zeus wrongfully accused him of stealing the bolt, why wasn’t that a factor? What were the stakes? Was Poseidon’s only loss pride? So, if Percy hadn’t been in danger, he would have allowed the war to continue, and put his realm and the entire world in danger? If they’re trying to say that Percy’s more important to Poseidon than anything else, then it makes no sense that he was sent on that Quest in the first place. Sure, maybe Poseidon wouldn’t have taken away Percy’s chance to rescue his mother, but, before that, when Hades was sending Furies (and Zeus was sending lightning bolts in the book), Poseidon wasn’t exactly sending people to remove Sally and Percy from danger. Probably because he knew that he’d need Percy to take care of this for him.
In the books, while Poseidon obviously cherishes the memory of Sally, and loves Percy (I think he loves all his kids, though that doesn’t necessarily make him a good father), Percy’s a kid that he’d never wanted in the first place. Those two things can be true at the same time. Best case scenario, Percy has a tragic fate because he’s a hero; worst case scenario he dies at sixteen and takes Olympus down with him. And, at this point he doesn’t know Percy or have any reason to trust him. Of course, they’re going to be awkward and distant at first! Percy didn’t start out as Poseidon’s favourite. He just won him over by being himself.
referring to this post
go off! honestly u nailed it all. their relationship in the books is very layed and nuanced and most importantly earned. like, with the arch, in the show percy falls while in the book percy takes a leap of faith. this is a big difference.
it's like the show is allergic to earning things. in the books, percy's arguments and fights w the gods are built up and have consequences (he literally gets cursed for stabbing ares—this is why u don't fuck w the gods), percy has an entire arc in tlt abt learning how a hero's fate is tragic and then rejecting that tragic fate, and he becomes poseidon's favorite, like you said, by being himself over the course of multiple books. meanwhile percy in the show is the specialist little boy just bc he exists. he talks back to and fights the big meanie gods bc there's no consequences so why would they bother building it up, he mocks the idea of a hero w the "pinecone's fate" line bc he's so genre saavy, and he's been poseidon's favorite this whole time. none of this is earned!

no but a lot of the pjo series was focused on how the enemy grew stronger because the gods ignored their kids and how percy called the gods out on their shitty parenting, and then in the heroes of olympus the gods literally go ballistic and ignore their children all over again but nobody said a word about it at all and there was no closure in the blood of olympus and that makes me so angry

Remember in 2010 when Taio Cruz said "I throw my hands up in the air sometimes"? I appreciated his restraint. You can't just throw your hands up in the air whenever. There's a time and a place, and that time was 2010, and the place was the club.

sure the greek demigods are easily able to learn ancient greek but what they actually speak amongst themselves is a fucked up Camp Dialect™ that has evolved seperate from modern greek for the past couple hundred years
