I’m a bigger fan of Mlem personally, it feels closer to what Apollo was and could see it heading more in that direction.

I totally get what you mean! I’ve been trying to comment and vote, but my usage is pretty strictly mobile based so I’m relying on the capabilities of a specific app, which is still in its infancy.

I will say, I’ve been hanging out on /all /new and seeing more and more instances popping up that are obvious subreddit replacements.

Hmmm it’s almost like sending fully armed and decked out gang members to respond to mental health crises would result in exacerbated circumstances??? Wild stuff.

But for real I love this program and hope to see it spread throughout the country

I would have to say American Psycho was pretty fucked up and I don’t think I see it mentioned yet. Way more intense than the movie because it’s a much deeper character study. But man that Patrick Bateman has some fucking crazy thoughts

I think I preferred The Iliad to The Odyssey but I really liked them both. The Odyssey was definitely more fantastical whereas The Iliad felt more epic and thrilling.

I read that towards the end of last year, and I think it could just be the writing style of that time, but there were definitely some tough slogs to get through. At the same time though, there are some great passages that were pretty thrilling or spooky or even a bit funny. Especially the image of a cowboy character stuck in the middle of this got his style horror 😂

I’d definitely count it, if you read it in a book lol. And yeah, it’s known as the oldest story ever, so I’d imagine it outdates everyone, Homer included 😉

 

I was thinking this while reading The Canterbury Tales, which isn’t exactly the oldest I’ve read (I think that goes to Homer)

But The Canterbury Tales is just so delightful! Getting into the flow of the rhyming prose is very fun to read (I’ve just been reading the Penguin Classics Coghill translation which is fantastic)

I’ve already watched the Pasolini adaptation but I’m definitely going to revisit once I finish the book.

I’ve never been much of a tumblr person but I may check it out. I’ve also jumped into mastodon, but haven’t found much funny

Oh I love movies! I just finished one that was restored by Mosfilm from the 60s, based on this Pushkin poem… tonight I’m gonna finally check out Jeanne Dielman since it topped the Sight and So-

What? Oh yeah cool another Marvel installment 😬
