I did.
*To Greek nationalist teacher of a history class with an exam next week*: I can’t believe Benito Mussolini had a Patroclus Menoitiades backstory. Really demonstrates the timelessness of Homer huh.
*to hot terminally online classmate with a hillternship*: Mussolini literally had a Red Scare arc that’s crazy haha. Couldn’t be me I go to therapy.

When you’re mean to Patroclus this is who you’re being mean to:

Reading a Spanish translation of Troilus and Cressida and I’m absolutely losing my shit that “Achilles’ brach” is translated as “el gozque de Aquiles”, gozque meaning dog but specifically like,, a little yappy dog. By far the best interpretation of that line I’ve come across.

Hopping back on here with a quick q for all my fellow dune fans-
I loved Dune and Dune Messiah, but I’m currently about halfway through Children of Dune and I’m finding it to be quite hard to follow and often a bit dull. Would it be worth it for me to read the rest of the series, or do you think that if I didn’t like CoD I won’t enjoy the other books either?
In other words- do you think of the last three Dune books as being more similar to the first two, or to CoD?

I will never stop being obsessed with the Argonautica stating that Achilles and Medea marry in the afterlife. Absolutely Wild could not have thought of a more unhinged match. Apollonius you were so based for that

Here goes the dull-witted thersites of calydon, being vulgar and obscene around the danaan encampment again. If you see him in the assembly being rude, please beat him. Please punish the nasty man if you see him

There’s a very specific phenomenon that arises when a (non-acting) celebrity ends up in a big movie, but they don’t have the range for anything but a Normal Guy and if they said more than a few lines at a time the audience would realise how dogshit they are so you’re just left there like damn why is the camera spending so much time on this normal-ass dude. I call it the Dunkirk Effect.
