Seriously, Everyone Is Missing OP’s Point That EVERY Religion Except The Christian Religion Analogue

Revan: Malak, we tried things your way.

Malak: No, we didn't.

Revan: I did in my head and it didn't work.

Revan is hilarious

Mary Shelley suddenly became a lot cooler than she already was. 

hello! i’m sorry if you’ve been asked this before but do you think you could elaborate on mary shelley’s attraction to women? i’ve heard of people describing her as bisexual just in passing but i’ve never found a good explanation of it. once again, i’m very sorry if you have been asked this before!

I may have, so check the questions tag just in case!

But Mary Shelley was involved with Jane Williams after Percy Shelley’s death, a relationship/involvement. Mary often described her in terms of endearment and her sole delight. Everything kind of went to hell when she found out Jane had married Thomas Hogg and was talking about how Mary was cold towards Shelley, which is, if you ask me, a big, big asshole move.

She also had wlw friends and help a couple to forge passports so they could ran away together too.

Clearly hoping we’ll forget about this...

I’m a bit disappointed I missed this festival. 

Antinous Festival of the Nile Inundation remix image by honorthegods.

Today, July 25, the modern cult of Antinous celebrates the festival of the Inundation of the Nile. The annual flooding of the Nile had failed in the two years preceding the death of Antinous. Famine was a threat to northern Europe, Africa, and the Near East, regions which relied on imports of grain from Egypt. The year following Antinous’ death, the inundation of the Nile was restored and even exceeded prior levels, an occurrence believed by some at the time to have been a miracle brought about by the recently deified Antinous.

Hail to you, O Nile! Hail, holy waters of life!  Mysterious is your issuing forth from the darkness, on this day whereon it is celebrated!

Hail to you, O Hapi! You bring water to the fields which Ra created! By your command, the land is fertile! Food is abundant, and the people are strong!

Hail, Antinous, deified by the Nile!  You hear the prayers of all those who call out to you, and relieve the afflictions of those in need!

LOL. This is a terrible idea, but hilarious!

Horrible Staging Ideas #3

Julius Caesar but it takes place in a cheap pizza restaurant.

This is so sweet. 

Drypetis was such a soft girl; a little girl, with a wide coy smile hidden behind her hands and a tendency to stomp when she walked. She enjoyed the arts, and acted out small snippets of plays.

I remember once, she played at Ganymede and urged me to be Zeus. It was amusingly appropriate, given our age difference, and I made to spirit her away; as though she was the pale Trojan Prince. To my surprise, she instead took an ornamental sword and brandished it at me with relish, the hilt cracking against my left shoulder.

It seemed she had believed that the beautiful Ganymede had fought for his freedom here on Earth, rather than take the position as cup-bearer at Olympus itself.

It took the rest of the afternoon to explain to her that a cup-bearer to the gods was truly a sign of great status; but even when we parted after we ate, she still maintained that he would want to strike a golden eagle down; to show off such a magnificent bird with boyish charm.

(Really, the one with true boyish charm was her)

Famine’s Monologue

I’ve noticed that while gays, lesbians, and bisexuals are fairly common in plays nowadays, asexuals are nowhere to be found. Thus, I created Famine, devil may care hipster who nonetheless delivers a badass monologue (slightly edited for clarity) that hopefully reassures asexual people that they are valid. 

“ Back when I was younger, it always confused the shit out of me as to why the thought of getting sexual with someone made me physically ill. I attempted to fix myself by going to various doctors, and drinking mysterious concoctions of medicines that supposedly increased sexual desire. Then one night, it occurred to me. Why the fuck was I wasting my time attempting to change a portion of myself just to please Society? So, I said screw it and let any person I was getting serious with relationship wise that sex wasn’t in the equation for me. It didn’t always work, mind you, but I finally was able to stop hating myself. Some people are going to be bigots regardless of how strenuously you attempt to educate them and there isn’t much you can do about it. But someone who truly loves you, will accept, and embrace the fact that you’re nonbinary the same way they’ll accept I happen to be a biromantic asexual.” 

LOL

This is so accurate.
