This week, I read the minor poetry of some of the major English translators of the Homeric poems in order to see whether they share any commonalities (and also score some free engagement while the Nolan Odyssey movie is releasing). Link in bio.

Next time I make fried zucchini flowers I’m going to use tweezers to get the stamen out because my fingers were way too big to not tear like half of them.

Someone on substack is trying to defend Nolan’s Odyssey from my criticism of casting Damon months before the movie came out, and the only way this young person can engage with the world is through cliched tumblr turns-of-phrase. Grim.

I wonder what a Musk directed “historically accurate” Odyssey would even look like when the Odyssey is not in any way historically accurate

I think it's pretty self-evident that Emily Wilson wouldn't be the biggest fan of Nolan's The Odyssey because she, like every single other classicist, is more interested in preserving/conveying the text as Homer wrote it than in adapting it towards a personal end.

@PatMcAfeeShow Your kids are going to know exactly who their dad is when they have to wade ankle deep through empty beer cans to get to your corpse

@NYCMayor People used to ask the hypothetical "would you kill baby Hitler" but you're balking when given the very real option to gently arrest adult Hitler because it's in a legal grey area. How cowardly.
