Things my classics professor has said about the Greek gods:

- Let’s just say Hera was not a girls girl

- Just because you’re faced with a minor inconvenience doesn’t mean you should swallow your wife (Zeus)

- Was Athena the original pick me girl? I’ll leave that up to you

- Now I’m not saying you should all go castrate your husbands, but we don’t judge Gaia okay?

- Leave him (Hermes) alone he’s just trying to play his lyre and steal some cows

- Athena is who Ares thinks he is

- Okay maybe sending the entire world into a famine was a lot, but also consider that maybe Zeus needed to fuck around and find out (about Demeter)

- Apollo is condoning murder six ways from Sunday

- It’s not Apollo’s fault that his sister is cooler

Why is it when I started building a relationship with Hecate I didn’t spiral into the world of classical studies, but when I’m getting to know Athena I’m suddenly studying Ancient Greek, following everything social media/internet wise related to classics studies (whether it be legit history or goofy memes), and anything about Athens I’m just consumed? I get it’s the connection and it’s important to know your deities and their associations…but this is a very, very strong pull. It feels like a deep dive into a whole other method of thinking. It’s nothing near romanticizing intellectualism. It’s an intellectual consumption…that I don’t think I have a word for.

My autodidact ass is NOT complaining though.
