Have a joyful #DayOfDionysos here at Erotic Mythology! 🍇
"Dionysos mingles in the wine new powers,
Sending high adventure to the thoughts of men."
Bacchylides, fragment "For Alexander son of Amyntas", from a 1st century papyrus
🏛 Roman bronze figure of Dionysos, dated 1st century CE, now in private collection
@…

This bronze sculpture is an exquisitely detailed representation of the god Dionysos, whose cult was one of the most popular in ancient times. Here, the god is nude, with a mantle that gently lies on his right leg. He is holding a bunch of grapes with his left hand, and a rhyton (drinking horn) with the right. The god is youthful and joyfully gazes forwards, with a crown of ivy leaves set upon his long flowing hair. These features clearly resemble those of the life-size Roman marble sculpture o…

Sadly, my band project „Nine Inch Screws“ didn’t really take off…

Photo of a long rusty screw I found on the ground. It’s maybe just 15cm long. But it has nice golden hour light falling on the habd that‘s holding it.

London #FT reports on investors that lost billions on #PumpAndDump stock scheme that inflated values of little known traded entities of small US-listed #ChineseStocks that plunged in value shortly after being heavily

Investors lost billions of dollars in July betting on a handful of small US-listed Chinese stocks that plunged in value shortly after being heavily promoted on social media. Seven Nasdag-listed microcap stocks — Concorde International, Ostin Technology, Top KingWin, Skyline Builders, Everbright Digital, Park Ha Biological Technology and Pheton Holdings — all dropped more than 80% over a few trading sessions in recent weeks. The declines wiped a cumulative $3.7bn off their market value, accord…
Wealth | Bloomberg Billionaires Mystery $33 Billion Medicine Fortune Collapses in Days
Victims of the alleged pump and dump scams include first-time traders and a former diplomat, according to correspondence seen by the Financial Times. Tia Castagno, who runs her own executive coaching business from London, was added to a WhatsApp group after she clicked on an advert on Facebook. She eventually lost all of her savings after being encouraged to invest in Ostin Technology by what she said looked like a legitimate US investment firm. “There’s a feeling of emptiness in my stomac…

Content warning: vent

what I wanted to get done this weekend
* finish some vent art I drew a rough pose for of a week ago
* give Final IK a try given I nabbed the unity asset at a discount
Instead I have accomplished
* getting moody yesterday after I remembered I was following a boyfriend of the person who's the motive for my vent art in the first place
* getting nausea, the runs, and being stuck in bed much of today

A presentation slide on using Final IK for digitigrade legs by Voxian at Furality Somna "What will we need? 1. VRC Parent Constraints to hold the hip and foot targets in place 2. LimblK to rotate the thigh 3. LimblK to handle the ankle 4. IKExecutionOrder to make sure these are calculated in the correct order"

Apple’s Thinnest iPhone Still Stands Up to Repairs
To be honest, we were holding our breath for the iPhone Air. Thinner usually means flimsier, harder to fix, and more glued-down parts. But the iPhone Air proves…

Spotted at the therapist.

A crocheted little creature holding a sign that reads, "Emotional Support Dumpster Fire" with the subtext, "It's fine. I'm fine. Everything is fine!" The creature is vaguely dumpster shaped (kind of roundish actually, but they were going for a cube), orange, with orange little hands holding the sign and grey little round feet. It has a smiley face, and the top of the dumpster is gray with curls of orange crocheted flames coming out of the top left side.

Already, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act places Trump and the Republicans at odds with their base and with swing voters.
According to a Wall Street Journal poll, 70% of the US believes the act benefits the rich.
Beyond that, the tax plan is underwater with the public, 42-52,
and is disfavored by a majority of independents.
Practically speaking, the Congressional Budget Office projected in June that nearly 8 million people would lose their insurance under the Trump-ba…

It's the #DayOfZeus / Jupiter's Day / Thorsday! ⚡
"Zeus breathes deeply with delight, like men who have undergone a great contest for a great prize, and he looks searchingly for his daughter, feeling pride in his offspring; nor yet is there even on Hera's face any trace of indignation; nay, she rejoices, as though Athena were her daughter also."
Philostratus th…

Have a courageous Day of Ares aka Mars' Day aka Tuesday 🗡️
"The space of the continents did bold Ares watch, sitting armed on the high top of Thrakian Haimos, and his horses were stalled by the seven-chambered cave of Boreas. And the other kept watch over the far-flung islands."
