odysseus absolutely does present a threat to penelope if he perceives her as at all unfaithful, and i feel the unfairness of this, and i think people tend to undersell how much tension at least potentially exists between odysseus and penelope. but i’m also like. his reaction, all speculation aside, his actual reaction in the odyssey to her flirting with the suitors is delight, because he immediately ascertains that she is running a con. sorry that they’re so in-sync in spite of the forces that try to drive a wedge between them, including their own misgiving hearts. sorry that they invented homophrosyne ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

oh, you meant they literally did, ok

would i, tumblr user thee odysseyofhomer, lie to you?

I mean if you’re being truly inspired by the classics…

So Australia has a yearly tradition going back over 20 years, that every Australia Day we all gather round our screens to watch an ad for a certain product. It’s so ingrained in our consciousness that the ads don’t even really relate to what they’re supposed to sell anymore, we all just know.

This year the ad broke containment, and non-Australians are having their brains melted by this bizarre tradition, so international followers, lets see if you can work out what this is trying to sell before the last few seconds.

A Willy Wonka pop-up event in Glasgow had attendees calling the police after they paid £35 and the event didn’t deliver what was promised.

Event goers were promised a whimsical adventure all themed around something Willy Wonka might create in his factory.

The keen-eyed amongst you might have noticed something a little bit…wrong.

Imagnation Lab. Encherining Entertainment. Catgacating. Live perforrmances. Cartchy tunes. Exarserdray lollipops. And my favourite “A pasadise of sweets teats”

But what did the event actually look like? WELL.

Feel like the marketing team got a bit carried away.

DASHCON 2: WHO UP WONKING THEY WILLY

the actor who played “willy” for this event said the script was “ai generated gibberish” and the script made up a new villain called “the unknown” who was an “evil chocolate maker who lived in the walls”

My mom’s very religious coworker asked if I had a boyfriend yet and my mom didn’t really want to tell her im a lesbian so she went ‘Vera only wants a rich man’ which sufficiently killed that conversation

I regret to inform you that I’m fixated on the Glasgow Willy Wonka Experience. The AI-generated script generated a villain called The Unknown that’s loosely meant to be an evil chocolatier that lives in the walls and was supposed to have been defeated by getting sucked into a vacuum, but because the creators of this Experience had about eleven pounds to work with they told the actor to improvise this. I’m obsessed

Here’s a video from the actor who played Wonka talking about the experience

I’m Obsessed. Obsessed

Link to a Twitter thread diving into the script and some pics from the event, including the above mentioned lemonade table

Holding this in Glasgow was certainly a choice

DO NOT DO THIS!!!

If a website has a paywall, like New York Times, DO NOT use the ctrl+A shortcut then the ctrl+c shortcut as fast as you can because then you may accidentally copy the entire article before the paywall comes up. And definitely don’t do ctrl+v into the next google doc or whatever you open because then you will accidentally paste the entire article into a google doc or something!!!! I repeat DO NOT do this because it is piracy which is absolutely totally wrong!!!

Also do NOT append “12ft.io/” before a URL ! Typing an URL like this https://12ft.io/<URL> will redirect to a site that would break the display of the page by removing the paywall !

Honestly it’s kind of prohibited to mash CTRL+P before some paywall windows can load in to get a PDF of the article. Really shouldn’t be done tbh very dangerous🤷🏿‍♂️ ❌️

Another option that doesn’t require you to do it quickly is by opening inspect, disabling JavaScript (which will vary from browser to browser, just look it up for your browser), and then reloading the page.

It will let you read it most of the time, and it also works for websites like Delish if you want to cook something 💪👍✨

Is he dying or something???

Well, he’s 82. Some turtles live well into their 100s, so I’m assuming he’s looking forward to a lengthy retirement.

I finished these a bit ago but forgot to upload. I’m making some mini linking charms of some of the less loved characters cause they deserve more attention :3

man yall the interpersonal drama in ancient rome was something else like. there was a guy named crassus who had a pet eel and was so sad when it died that he gave it a funeral, and when another dude named domitius ahenobarbus made fun of him for throwing an eel funeral, crassus was like “oh so this is coming from the guy who’s buried three of his wives and not even shed a single tear about it.” wish i could’ve been in the room for that one

There are three kinds of LGBT headcanons:

1. Actual queer coding / metaphors (“Nimona is trans because her creator made her as a way to express his feelings as a trans person”)
2. Vibes (“Link is genderless because I said so”)
3. It’s funny (“Phoenix Wright is asexual because he’s the Ace Attorney”)
