So, the Myrmidons are said to have been descended from ants that were turned into humans by Zeus. As much as some people like to depict them as humanoid ants, they are explicitly stated to look completely human, just with the *soul* of an ant. For almost my entire life I never really questioned that notion much further than surface level. However, I recently had a thought pertaining to the Odyssey that I can’t get out of my head.
When Odysseus met all of his departed friends in elysium, was Achilles an ant?
Like when Odysseus saw his former brothers in arms in spectral form, did he go “Where’s Achilles?” And then notice that Patroclus was carrying an ant? Was he surprised, Or did Odysseus go into the Greek afterlife fully expecting Achilles to look like an ant? He would have known about the Myrmidons’ whole soul situation; did he assume it was all metaphorical until he saw Achilles’s soul as an ant? Was he like, “Oh I guess it’s literal that’s fucking weird.”
Did the Myrmidons souls even take the form of ants, or did they just retain all their ant like qualities? I have so many questions.
So I just got a graphic tablet for my birthday and I feel like a fawn trying to stand up and out of nowhere BAM! I get a coloring dynamic for this wonderful line art by @mdoodlerfandomart
His HTTYD art is soooo good that I thought it was a crime not to try it, please if you haven't seen his volg do yourself a favor and see the original artwork.
Okay so I did some research, very basic research, on the user base of tumblr and how many of us there are.
There are at least 300 million unique visitors worldwide on this site. Over 500 million blogs.
Listen. Tumblr is $30 million in debt. This is Super easy for us to solve.
If each user gifts one blog crabs, which costs slightly over $3, that would be roughly $600 million at least. Far more than enough to get Tumblr out of the red zone.
If we want tumblr to stay afloat and not change something as integral about their operating system, we need to show them they can be profitable without reducing themselves to common social media sites. What we have here is special. It is different. We are the social media site people run to when theirs collapses and for good reason.
If we want this to work, we have to make it work. We can even make it into a game. Just how long can we outlast the other social media sites?
