And in addition to being part of her legacy, I think it might be first (only?) anthology of sfnal stories featuring sex workers as the protagonists. Let’s get that back in the record, shall we?
One day I'm going to have enough energy to write the explainer for why the Moon-forming collision does not constitute an enemies-to-lovers relationship for the Earth and Moon, instead of tormenting my colleagues with my opinions
Love her! And the lil Cerberus and Sphinx!
We got @felicia.day to talk about Greek Mythology and her first graphic novel The Lost Daughter of Sparta. A lot of of our favorite things are colliding all at once.

Reading a book on horror literature in the ancient world and suddenly I’m learning all sorts of very technical terms for various types of cannibalism: anthropophagy, which means eating humans whether by another human or something else, and teknophagy, eating one’s own children. Aah, Greek mythology!
Clyteum seems based on Clytius, assuming it's for example based on something like Uranium with Uranus.
Hands shaking looking up Latin etymology for the word Clyteum
For some reason, I think a lot about the Yeongno, a figure of the traditional Korean Talchum masked dance. It has to eat 100 rich and greedy people to regain its celestial form and return to heaven. #sketchbook #mythology #folklorecreature
While homeschooling I came across this Mythology story about how a man…..got tricked by a woman….. don’t feel bad. Even in ancient times, men were losing it ALL…. From women. 😉
Anansi the African trickster god is a big one, the Japanese spider woman Jorōgumo, also the Tsuchigumo; assume "got turned into a spider" is Ovid's Arachne? There's plenty here if you care to browse - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultura...
In which a student feels strongly about the feelings of Helen of Troy (whom we are putting on trial).
"Can I request, although I’m sure a lot of other people may have, that I please not be on the prosecution team. I simply cannot utter a word against Helen."

In honour of March madness and for all those ladies of any species who don't care for being importuned by uppity boys, I'm changing my avatar to my Pictish stones-style hares boxing:
Looking to gauge interest for an anthology pitch centring sapphic goddesses and monsters.
Settings to include urban fantasy, political fantasy, historical fantasy and any combination limited only by imagination.
Please share & comment! Needless to add, cis- and transwomen are equally women ❤️

The Picts carved many different beasts on their stones in the Early Medieval. Some real, some imaginary, a few somewhere in between. I set out to learn how to use the style to draw a few animals that they never did...
The Daily Dog: if I just don’t look at it, it’s not begging.

Hi #EarlyModern Bluesky - did you know that someone brilliant has built working printing presses using Lego and they are trying to get enough supporters so that Lego will release it as a kit?
They look so cool!

I recommend my nearly-award-winning #shortfilm I made in HS (2004) w/ #DP Matt Emerick, which I wrote, starred in & directed.
I was told we won 1st @ the inaugural (as it turns out, only) #TheWoodlands #FilmFestival, if I’d agree to dub over/change/cut 2 lines, & I wouldn’t 😆
