Chrysippus (279BC - 206BC) was a Greek Stoic philosopher who reportedly died from laughing too hard at his own joke. Biographer Diogenes Laërtius actually recorded two different accounts of Chrysippus' death in The Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers. The first account is that Chrysippus became dizzy after drinking unmixed (i.e. undiluted) wine and died soon after; in the second account Diogenes writes:

"But some people say that he died of a fit of immoderate laughter. For that seeing his ass eating figs, he told his old woman to give the ass some unmixed wine to drink afterwards, and then laughed so violently that he died."

(1606 engraving depicting Chrysippus' death)

#if youre getting mad at it now you would have been mad about modern art in the 1920s too #this is what people mean when they say that some people are no different than greek statue pfps getting all RETVRN abt art #also pack it up there's better posts on the automation of art and art philosophizing #too much people reblogged this for the quote unquote ethical painting. scram

not me crying over the fact that Plato wasn’t actually at Socrates’ death, and the fact that we’ll never know what Socrates actually said on his deathbed. Damn whatever Plato was sick with.

the increasing interdependence of human and machine in our daily life is surely suboptimal on a wider scale but it might all be worth the distinct pleasure of walking up an escalator. my legs and the gears of the moving stairs united, flesh and steel, working together on one goal: me getting up there so fucking fast

#i also feel like describing an escalator would be the easiest maximum impact way #to completely decalibrate the mind of any ancient greek philosopher

I know frankenstein is technically set in the 18th century but I can't help always imagining it in the 1810s when Mary Shelley was writing... I just love the regency melodrama of it all <3

#the creation's classical esque fit was inspired by how he was depicted in stage adaptations of the 1820s #ill reblog this with some pics later cuz i just love that costuming for him #like of course a guy who learnt to read from paradise lost and plutarch's lives would want to dress like his idea of a greek philosopher #frankenstein #victor frankenstein #the creature #myart #isabelle draws lit

I say this because I've been drinking with my dad for six hours and people we're with keep asking about my dead ass mother and how we're coping (shit as hell thanks for asking): but goddamn sometimes I have to take the W on my vocab skills, because I'm drunk as hell and I'm still better than someone who's had weeks to edit something. I don't want to inflate my ego because I'm just some woman on the internet, but at some point I have to acknowledge that...no I know I'm better than what I'm reading rn (she says reading academic articles at midnight).

#did you need to be that pretentious? nooooope #lord you have several degrees but you didn't need to show your whole ass #you can be smarter than people without being a dick hot damn dude #I'm smarter than a lot of people but also dumb as hell and I know it #I should be allowed to be a greek philosopher now just based on this and the discipline it takes to spell when I can barely see

world where plato was right and marx came up with communism in a fit of divine madness instead of years of work

#this is about plato's belief in knowledge from divine madness being more pure than that #knowledge which was reached through philosophy #im p sure it was plato it might have been another contemporary greek philosopher
