Piranesi is like if the Backrooms were carved by Michelangelo and had birds in ‘em

The next time I see someone romanticize the myth of Persephone I’m going to lose it. So just to try and hammer it into people, here’s a counter to every argument I’ve seen.

God there's something about the idea that Hector was wearing Achilles's old armor when he faced him to die. when Achilles saw Hector he saw a mirror of himself, and he knew exactly where to aim

#what if you and i fought to the death by the gates of troy #and you had everything to live for and i had none #and you came to me knowing you'd die and i came to you hoping i would #when you looked at me did you see me with all my divinity and wrath #or did you see the grief and the bloodshot eyes #which one assured you that you would not see tomorrow

sometimes I think too hard about like. how the ability to record audio fundamentally changed how humans interact with music. can you imagine if the only time you ever heard music in your whole life was when you or another human being in your actual physical presence decided to create it. and 99.99% of the time that person was not a professional but just like your wife or your dad or your co-worker or church choir singing or playing whatever they happened to know. i honestly don't think we can fathom it

#music #also bears mentioning #they invented a thing that recorded audio. literally anything.#and one of the first things they did was make music. l #actually most of early music were folk tunes #which makes me feel fine. absolutely okay no emotional reaction.#they could track oral history. I’m fine #anthropological nonsense
