As batshit as this sounds, I might as well tell you there is a prophet living on the West Coast. I have known this person for over 30 years but we do not speak much these days. They are choosing to remain under the radar. I have no idea what to do with this information

Another horrific change in the Odyssey trailer: Odysseus asks Calypso to help him. Wrong, he just leaves despite her begging him to stay (she even promises him eternal life), but she helps him with the raft anyway because shes obsessively in love with him.

@swamp_ist Are you going to use AI writing in your stupid magazine like you do it your tweets? I’m sure investors will be very excited to see what cool prompts you come up with

Hey guys - We're going to be launching our crowdfunding campaign for Dixie Magazine in the coming weeks. If you're interested in becoming an investor, I can send you the deck. DM me. We will not be profiling anyone named Maneet.
The Yeoman WASP@TheYeomanWASP

No, @Southern_Living Magazine. Do not take cues on how to be a Southerner from a person named Maneet. And no, Chauhan is not in the Civil War registry.

This is the most reddit possible way to approach an ancient epic. Another bad sign.
Variety@Variety

Christopher Nolan says #TheOdyssey has the "original superheroes": "They are the original superheroes. Even comic book culture, whether you're talking about Marvel or DC or all the rest, a lot of it comes directly from the Homeric Epics. The thing about Homer is, nobody knows if that was a person. Homer in a way is the George Lucas, maybe, of his time… Homer is the Marvel of its day, that's the thing. It's very directly this desire for us to feel or believe Gods could walk amongst us, and I think the modern comic book is kind of our expression of that." variety.com/2026/film/news…

@swamp_ist The average Puerto Rican “Nazi” thinks that by pretending he and his POC wife are on the team the regime won’t notice him when they’re rounding everyone up

The average libtard yankee hates this because they can't imagine liking their family enough to sit in a room with them and watch TV
James Tate@JamesTate121

You see this kind of thing in struggling lower-income Southern households, and it tells a very specific story. When life hasn't delivered much.... no wealth, no power, no real social standing.... some folks discover that white supremacy is basically a free membership card to a club that makes them feel superior without requiring any actual achievement. It's the world's laziest status symbol. The starter kit is always the same: *A Confederate flag honoring a war their ancestors lost badly 160 years ago. *A gun they'll never actually need. *A Bible they've never actually read. *And Fox News running 24/7 telling them they're REAL Americans.... unlike those fancy elitist Democrats who are secretly importing an army of replacement voters to steal their.... Their what exactly? Their Dollar General? Their 1987 Camaro on cinder blocks in the yard? FOX found the formula, and they never let go of it: Take a man who has nothing, tell him the reason he has nothing is because those people are taking it.... and suddenly he's not a struggling nobody. He's a soldier in a cultural war. He matters. He's relevant. He becomes a MAGA Warrior! And THAT.... ladies and gentlemen.... is precisely how a twice-impeached, four-times-indicted, 34-time felon, bankrupt New York con man who golfs at his own resorts became the hero of the working man. You genuinely cannot make this stuff up. And I write this so that hopefully they will recognize what they have done and what they are doing and snap out of it..... I was born and raised in Appalachia ... These very people could be my relatives ..... but ... I .... got common sense from my granny ----- "question everything". VIA~Lee Murphy

@DiscussingFilm i am rusty on greek mythology but isnt the Odyssey literally just about the odyssey itself, instead of his wife and son drama back home?

Tickled to learn, via Willa Cather's "Death Comes for the Archbishop," that the French for "rattlesnake" is "serpent à sonnette."

this is why nobody should move to new york in 2026. you are not going to have a wholesome chungus 2010s hipster loft bodega warehouse party experience. no, you are going to drink coffee from starbucks and buy groceries from whole foods in between either selling or buying b2b SAAS
saarim zaman@poolnoodle93

walking on bedford avenue on a saturday feels surreal in 2026. there is no history left and not even a hint of nostalgia. the people have completely turned over. you might as well live in richmond, va or any other tier two city and find yourself more connected to place.

So you mean to tell me that someone down your line watched their world burn from the moment the American Civil War broke loose? That they saw their homes shelled and fields turned to ash… watched entire towns disappear under fire and occupation… saw fathers, brothers, and sons march off and never come back? That they lived through the long years of Reconstruction Era, when what little remained was picked apart, controlled, or taken… when governments were imposed, debts piled high, and survival meant starting over with nothing but stubborn will? That they rebuilt with their hands… learned to farm land that had been stripped bare… raised families in poverty, often without schools, without stability, without certainty that tomorrow would be better? That they held onto a way of speaking, a way of life, a memory of who they were, even as it was mocked, flattened, or erased… told their history didn’t matter, or worse, that it shouldn’t be remembered at all? That they endured generations of hardship… economic collapse, migration, ridicule… fought in every American war that followed, from World War I to World War II and beyond… came home, again and again, to rebuild and carry on? That despite everything, they kept going… kept families together… passed down whatever they could, even if all they had left was grit, memory, and a sense of place? And after all that… after generations who refused to quit when quitting would’ve been easier… You hit one setback… one rejection… one hard season… and you’re ready to walk away? Don’t. You carry people you’ll never meet. People who endured things you’ll never have to face. Whatever you’re dealing with now, it sits on top of a foundation built by survival, not surrender. So stand up. Push forward. Because quitting isn’t just about you.

So you mean to tell me that someone down your ancestry line survived being chaıned to other human bodięs for several months in the bottom of a disease-infested ship during the Middle Passage, lost their language, customs and traditions, picked up the English language as best they could while working free of charge from sun up to sun down as they watched babies sold from out of their arms and women rapęd by ruthless sIave owners. Took names with no last names, no birth certificates, no heritage of any kind, braved the Underground Railroad, survived the Civil Wąr to enter into sharecropping... Learned to read and write out of sheer will and determination, faced the burning crosses of the KƘK, everted their eyes at the black bodies swinging from ropes hųng on trees... Fought in World Wąrs as soldiers only to return to America as boys, marched in Birmingham, hosed in Selma, jailed in Wilmington, assassinated in Memphis, segregated in the South, ghettoed in the North, ignored in history books, stereotyped in Hollywood... and in spite of it all, someone in your family line endured every era to make sure you would get here, but you receive one rejection, face one obstacle, lose one friend, get overlooked, and you want to quit? How dare you entertain the very thought of quitting. People, you will never know, survived from generation to generation so you could succeed. Don’t you dare let them down! It is NOT in our DNA to quit!
