hi, i’m declaring this Canon and Correct Classics because i’m bi
in case you can’t read it, the text says “ ...Few gods traverse the boundary that divides the realm of surface realm where dwell the living, and this one, where dwell the dead. Thanatos ranks high even among those of such authority and power. Although it is my Master who presides over the Underworld, Thanatos is death itself, brother of Sleep, an instrument in sending mortals on their way into the Underworld; more peacefully than violently, mind you, as I did not encounter him myself when my time came, by Ares' and Apollo's design. As death is swift and unavoidable to mortals, so is Thanatos devoted without question to his work. Fatherless, he honors always his mother, the goddess Nyx. He tirelessly serves his foreign Master, whose son at least he adores, despite their opposing manner and outlook. Thanatos would never speak of this, but it is clear, to me. Whence came the bond they share? My thought is that the Master's son must be the god of blood; of life. Thus, they are inexorably drawn.”
What are your opinions on the absolute madlad himself, pliny the elder.
i wish i had 10% of his confidence to just write down everything he knew and be like “this is all true!”
i kinda want to hang out with him and like, talk about modern science and technology and see how he reacts. you know? like what would he think.
you’re right tbh truly one of the original absolute madlads
when someone insults you and it’s fine but then they insult your favorite historical figure and you get really offended
lol people are discoursing on this and:
a) it’s not about hamilton. dear lord b) it’s years old please let it go ……. i’m a changed man …….. i no longer have depression and an incredibly unhealthy attachment style leading to me acting like maecenas from ancient rome was my friend or whatever

listen. hades the game may not be the most “accurate” and itself be “incorrect” classics, but here’s the thing. it’s attractive and hestia canon had a gun at one point, which i think we can agree she deserves. also achilles is your dad.
they knew what the classics gays wanted!! i have to appreciate it.
hey :D you guys liked the smells like teen spirit bardcore by this person, now he did another one in latin that i ALSO love :)
Hey friends, I need your help getting this Kickstarter shut down, and preferably the funds sent to people affected.
I’ve talked to my friends, and we really are at a loss as to what else we can do. We’ve contacted the people who made the Kickstarter and are contacting Steam, but there simply isn’t enough response.
What is the project?:
The project is this visual novel called “Mein Waifu is the Fuhrer.” It is supposedly a parody, but you can never really tell.
What’s bad about it?:
This project has real world Nazi killers as Cute Anime Girls.
These people committed real crimes against my people. They may have committed real crimes against your people. They not only have Hitler himself as one of the girls, but four other criminals who committed atrocious acts.
To add insult to injury, they have rewards such as body pillows of the Hitler girl and some of the others, as well as keychains and patches. You can also get a soldier in the game added to look like you.
Why is this harmful when WWII was so long ago?:
Nazis, to be blunt, are still out there.
The Holocaust’s effects are still lingering. We have survivors out there, but their numbers are dwindling. We have people making the same mistakes that lead up to it.
The Jewish population has not yet even reached the number we had before the Holocaust. We have high rates of intergenerational trauma. This was so triggering to one of my friends and I that we decided we had to do something. I believe the same is true of the Romani people, who were also targeted for their race.
There were, and are many other people murdered by the Nazis. (May their memories be a blessing). Political prisoners, disabled people, LGBTQ+ people. Their contributions were also buried, just like Jewish ones were.
If I donated, what can i do?:
We all make mistakes, and I am not expecting everyone to understand the realities of global antisemitism and anti-Romani racism. I am not calling you a Nazi or even a bad person if you supported this. However, please consider making an equivalent donation, or educating yourself on these topics.
I would encourage donating to a Holocaust education center. There are a lot of small ones, so you could probably even find one in your area. People are beginning to forget and deny this tragedy in greater and greater numbers, so this is important work that you could really help!
You can also donate to a local Jewish organization! Contrary to what you may have heard, most of us aren’t rich, and our organizations need funding just like any other.
A lot of us donate in multiples of $18 because “18″ and “life” sound the same. It would be an extra nice gesture to send $18, $36, or $54…though obviously any amount is good!
You can educate yourself by reading about the Jewish and Romani people and seeing what our cultures are like and all the important contributions we have made!
you kids know i don’t normally reblog stuff like this but i have 10,000 of you and i need to share this. you don’t have to reblog it yourself or anything i just want people to see it.
god this is so good. i need you all to listen to this. i have to share this.
Hey, as always, I am open for submissions!
Honestly, although I still love classics, my interests have shifted elsewhere. Also, I’m a grad student in counseling psychology now so I tend to forget most of my sideblogs. I never expected this blog to blow up so I just made it a sideblog.
Unfortunately, that all means I won’t be making new content myself :(
