The roots of the Arthur myth are more Celtic than English. & the branches extend into so many other places & languages that it's hard to call it distinctly English (the most famous Arthurian texts are in French, & the most famous English texts are based on those).
Jesse Sumpter@jesse_sumpter

The King Arthur myth is unique in two key ways. First, it was born in a Christian world. In this way, it is not like The Iliad, The Odyssey, or The Aeneid which were created without Christian roots. Those other myths are powerful stories and offer key insights into human nature. But the Arthur myth is not from the pagan world. It is a Christian epic. It has a wide range of tales and some are more Christian than others but the basic outline of King Arthur has numerous Christian themes. Second, the King Arthur myth is rooted in English language and culture. Other epics like the Divine Comedy are Christian but are not original to English. This means the King Arthur myth reveals something important about English that we cannot learn through those other myths. Just as the Iliad reveals Greek culture so King Arthur reveals English culture. The English language is also bound up in the myth in such a way that there is something deeply English about it. To speak English is to walk in the same world as King Arthur. If you want to dig into this Christian myth, I highly recommend the Idylls of the King by Alfred Lord Tennyson. It is accessible and also taps into the many profound themes of Arthur: godly rulers, betrayal, forgiveness, and consolation. And it points vividly to our ultimate hope in the returning king.

Taking linguistics in 2008: Descriptive grammar is all that matters, let people talk how they talk—variety is the spice of life! 😉 2025: go ahead, say “videoing.” Say “casted.” When I do 9/11 2 I’m naming you in the note I’ll stick in my passport and let flutter to the ground

@RunTheGhouls There's a conspiracy that the CIA helped push boy bands and rap in order to repress Rock because Rock was unifying white people and people of color. Billy Corrigan talked about it.

No, but 9/11 and what followed did intensify it. It started with colonial era orientalism, we were depicted as irrational, violent, backwards to justify colonization, military intervention & political control.

@FitMarshmellow This is because Maws is descended from the Max Landis school of "Clark Kent is just a normal guy like me who's usually in the right but ohhh that Lois!!! She's always on his case!!!!"

@ThisCatIs2D The funny thing is the reason that historically the problem lied with Superman is because of gender roles, and you think this would be rectifying that, but from what I’ve seen from the show… I feel like this would just be reinforcing them in a different way

the non-cynical answer is that i think it'd be an interesting inversion. they get to slip the power dynamic, resisting the pressure that pushes transfemmes to the societally desired role of passive, degendered sex objects.

@ThisCatIs2D … especially if her career is on the line and I think it’s still interesting, but it’s just with season two’s conflict and season one’s conflict, I feel like the show struggles a lot with making Clark out to be a flawed person, and puts all the onus on Lois

@ThisCatIs2D The thing that gets me is historically, Superman’s the one who struggles to settle down. He feels he has this massive responsibility that he cannot allow himself the pleasure of being married to the love of his life. Of course, I understand why Lois would feel similarly…
