- Jeff Goldblum as Zeus
- A disabled actors play a disabled characters (Mat Fraser & another secret one [because spoilers])
- A trans actor plays a trans character (I won't say which one since it's kind of a spoiler)
- Set in modern times, uses characters from old myths but isn't a simple retelling; it's a whole new story
- All your favs are there (Prometheus, Daedalus, Persephone, Dionysus, Cassandra, Medusa, Charon, Ariadne, the Fates, the Furies, just to name a few)
- Speaking of Persephone, she and Hades are actually in love (the version of the myth which I know much of you love)
- Gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss Hera (as in, she literally does all those things)
- The gods' actors' ages actually make sense, they didn't cast solely young people or make young people look older; you've got Zeus (72), Hera (63), Hades (61), Persephone (56), Poseidon (56), Dionysus (27), you get the idea
- Killer soundtrack
- Actual realistic queer characters/representation in a natural, unforced way
- Enjoyable story and comedic but also has depth (I binge-watched it in a day)
- Not a huge commitment (8 episodes of about 50 minutes each)
- Have you ever thought "What would the Ancient Greek gods be doing in modern times?" This show answers that question!
- It wasn't renewed for a second season due to viewership, so if the views explode, maybe they'll renew it and I can find out what happens next (I know it's not likely, but I can dream; besides, if just one person watches and enjoys it, then this post will have been worth it)
“Patton two-point-oh-my-god.” (When Patton gets a punk makeover)
In his corner of the garage, Virgil started snapping. His hands were up by his ears as he did, and he was grinning, seemingly in his own little world.
(I just realized— we’re all in the community, aren't we? Well, I don't know about Virgil.) Virgil’s snapping had stopped, but now he was rocking back and forth on his heels. “I’m gay. And trans, actually.”
“Looks like you gotta rap now, man. I don't make the rules.”
“Yikes, man. Er— sorry, is it alright if I call you that?”
"At school, to defend my hiding behind layers and black clothing, I pretended to be goth or emo ..."
”Do you want to kiss?” (Who?) "Me."
“I’m scared of someone finding out my deadname and using it. Any time I hear it, I just freeze up ..."
"I’m not really accepted in a lot of trans spaces, because I don't want surgery or HRT. I just… Identify as a guy. That's not enough, apparently."
I yell about my hyperfixations into the void, and the void responds with
Hey since science side of tumblr explained this can I get science side of tumblr to explain my vision
So I made this:
So like if I shut one of my eyes I see everything either in cooler or warmer colors and this is my best approximation, it's weird as hell and nobody can explain it to me (but I mean I haven't gone to a vision-color-eye-expert-person) and I'm not colorblind or anything I've checked
So science side of tumblr help please?
The human memory is so weird.
Example: every single time I smell a bar of dove soap, I think of this one kid I used to go to school with. Now, I can't tell you his age. I can't tell you his favorite color. I can hardly tell you his first name.
But I remember that he always smelled like dove soap.
No matter what. It's like he carried dove soap around in his pockets. Just plain old dove white soap. And it was so strong but not overpowering— like, it wasn't a dove deodorant or something, it was like straight-up smelling a bar of dove soap whenever you were near him.
So now every time I smell dove soap he pops into my mind.
Why?
I can hardly remember my tumblr password sometimes, I forgot my own age a bit ago and had to use a calculator to figure it out. But no matter what, I remember this kid from fifth grade always smelled like dove soap.
Science side of tumblr please explain
Patton: *yawn, opens eyes*
On Patton's bedside table: HUGE SPIDER
Patton: *shrieks, jumps out of bed, runs out of room*
Patton: Virgil! Virgil there's a giant bug in my room I need you to kill it!
Virgil: *gets up, follows Patton to his room*
Virgil: *kills bug*
Virgil: That was a big spider
Patton: Yeah I woke up and it was right in my face and I yelled... Well, I'm definitely awake now
Virgil: *laugh*
Patton: Thank you!!
Now, I'm no expert by any means, but I've been following Fish long enough that I can say with a fair amount of confidence that this post was going to end with something along the lines of:
"you're loved, and dehydrated, those aren't related but please drink water"
I got very sleepy all of the sudden I am seconds away from falling asleep I'm typing this post with the last of my energy please remember me please make the world a better place, you're lo

(That's actually really funny now that I get it—)
QUESTION SANDER SIDES FANS:
Please help me I don't know what this joke means and I can't find an explanation anywhere:
[You call those witty?]
Patton: Well, you call those glasses?
[I mean yes, I'm not sure if you're implying some—]
Patton: Well, I don't think they'll pick up, they don't have a cell phone! ZING!
Has there ever been a bigger power move than Thomas pointing out immediately that Roman's sword is a katana before sword buffs called him out on it in the comments
Y'all wish me luck on Patton's glasses, I got black embroidery thread for this but I can't do round embroidering—
A littol Virgil! (Does this count as fanart?)
Based off the Campfire Au Vee by @tscampfireau (HIGHLY recommend you check it out, it's awesome!)
Also can we discuss that Remus had a legit paddle like how was that bought as a prop was it borrowed from a friend or did Thomas buy one just for that few seconds or should I not be wondering because that's personal and crossing a line
(It looked like it was leather I think like those are expensive??)
Oh my GOD so
1. Someone FINALLY recognized that as a part of Thomas, Remus has to have importance!!!
2. Real life Nico!!
3. Logan dumping out his coffee and replacing it with wine? ICONIC
4. HIS EYES! We were all right!!! I think!! Logan's gonna get mad and go dark so Thomas pays attention to him and become the orange side!! I literally made Logan's eyes orange in one of my dark side Logan aus! And he's definitely a dark side because of Remus's 'now you're speaking my language'!!
5. The end! Virgil chilling in the roots of a tree, Janus, the snake with the apple, up in the branches, assuring that 'everything is just fine'
6. Logan trying to understand the others while they constantly brush him off!!
7. The orange eyes at the very end!!
8. REMUS AND LOGAN CONTENT!!!
9. ALL THE SIDES TOGETHER IN ONE EPISODE!
10. ORANGE SIDE CONTENT
11. REALLY GOOD ADVICE FOR DEALING WITH INTRUSIVE THOUGHTS THAT I REALLY NEEDED RIGHT NOW
12. SHOWING REMUS'S WORK PROCESS
13. REMUS BEING ALLERGIC TO S O A P
14. THE ENTIRE THING
He/they (both equally good)I love asks, requests, general interaction, and stuff like that!Mostly various fandom stuff, I'm just having a good time and enjoying myselfI hope I can make you smile :)
