looked at this and freaked out because I noticed that it said “petrolatum” and not “petroleum”.

My whole life I thought that it was some weird byproduct of the oil industry, and I never questioned that belief.

I suddenly remembered every time I had called it “petroleum jelly” and thought that I must’ve looked like a massive idiot.

Anyway, anything that enters my brain is immediately converted into the action of pulling up a Wikipedia article, and as it turns out, it actually is called “petroleum jelly” (which consists of white petrolatum) and is a weird byproduct of the oil industry

lord give you the strength to read the rest of the post 🙏

i am going to lose it

My dad’s always been a fan of Kylie Minogue, so it’s very funny to see him amongst other members of the crowd at concerts that would more be considered part of her demographic. The girls and the gays and a middle-aged insurance salesman

My birthday falls on the Ides, which means I get first dibs. Because I’m the special birthday boy

i do get why ppl are kind of visceral about the idea that all art is political but like. It Is

people say this and someone goes “oh so even my [niche / absurd fetish porn ] is political ? and it’s like yeah man that’s pretty much one of the best examples of that actually

this website’s easy watch. *dangles a bunch of greek gods like keys*

i know what i’m doing dw

Keep in mind I only know like. Two Greek gods by name. Homer is one of them, and he was good friends with Odysseus I think?

Wait fuck Homer isn’t a god he wrote the fucking thing. Fuck

POST CANCELLED NO ONE LOOK

desperately google searching for “greek gods to pray to when people notice your online idiocy”

You're failing.

You don’t think I know that, God of Death? Can I pray to you so I can DIE ALREADY

Pluto is Roman, not Greek

Short version is that Pluto is a later name for the god of death, which is often associated with the Roman era/Roman mythology. Hades is the earlier name.

I set up my own house made of sticks and it has promptly fallen on me

HE’S NOT EVEN REAL?????*

I made this post thinking I knew what kind of fire I was playing with. Hephaestus, God of Fire, looking upon me from his fuck off tower or whatever said “Oh you think you know? Check this shit” and promptly set my post ablaze for everyone to observe

Hephaestus doesn't have a tower, he lived in a volcano

FINE THEN. BIG FUCK OFF VOLCANO. WHATEVER

Lightning Bait

You're basically doing the post equivalent of standing out in a field during a storm with a ten-foot copper pole, you better hope Zeus is busy hiding from Hera.

FUCK'S SAKE NOT AGAIN

I need you to name every greek God you know and what they are for plz

For science

OKAY FINE HERE'S WHAT I'VE FOUND

  • HERMES: DA FUNNY ONE
  • ZEUS: DA LIGHTNING (NOTE: THOUGHT HE WAS NORDIC, FATHER OF THOR)
  • POSEIDON: DA SEA ONE
  • HEPHAESTUS: DA FIRE/FORGING/STEEL ONE
  • APHRODITE: DA HOT ONE
  • KRATOS: GOD OF WAR
  • HADES: DA HELL ONE. ROGUE LIKE
  • APOLLO: DA DODGEBALL/PROPHECY ONE

ares is the god of war, not kratos

WHY THE FUCK DOES THE GAME CALL HIM GOD OF WAR THEN
