Γελάς γιατί σε θέλω
κατεβάζεις το καπέλο
Και μου λες λοιπόν θυμήσου
Σαν ταινία η ζωή σου να κυλά
🎶: Φωτιά στο λιμάνι-Ξύλινα Σπαθιά
Κι όταν κάποτε φύγω δεν θα πάρω μαζί μου πάρα λίγο βιολετί απ' το δειλινό κι ένα άστρο από κάποιο παραμύθι
~Τ. Λειβαδίτης
Να σ' αγναντεύω θάλασσα, να μη χορταίνω
Μια παραλία ερημική
και ν’ απλώναμε εκεί
της ζωής μας το βήμα
και δεν πειράζει που τόσα φιλιά
πριν να γίνουν παλιά
θα τα πάρει το κύμα.
I feel the need to defend Aphrodite. She gets a lot of shit and I find it to be massively unfair. She is consistently characterized as an irredeemable bitchy mean girl, when in reality she isn’t any worse than ANY of the other gods. Many of the male gods have done worse than her and they are less slandered and ridiculed than her. Keep in mind every single god was designed to have flaws to them, so that they would better reflect humanity, plus many things that are significant wrongdoings in our eyes now we’re normalized at the time. About the Hephaestus thing, I’m going to be honest… I don’t care. Gods in all mythologies have affairs all the time, Greek gods especially. Her extramarital escapades are nothing special. Plus, her marriage to Hephaestus was an arranged one that she had no choice in. It was just to get the other gods to not go after her because she was taken. I’m gonna say it… I think a lot of the Aphrodite hate is residual misogyny/internalized misogyny and everyone else just goes along with it because it’s the popular opinion.
Le nom de la fille est Yllas fille d'Hades, à côté d'elle se trouve un dieu. Devinez qui il est.
The girl's name is Yllas daughter of Hades, beside her is a god. Guess witch one.
Un peu différent mais l'idée est là.
