As I listen to Loki's history my one thought is, "Wow, all we are missing is Wu Kong coming into play somehow leaving a note for his friend Loki to say, hi." They're very similar in being chaotic and still helping others whether they caused the problem or not. The only thing that would make it sillier is if they sang the Father and Son song from Aladdin and the King of Thieves movie.

I think this is a romantic comedy the way A Modest Proposal is a cook book. Shakespeare is commenting on a society where men have all the power and Patricio is the embodiment of how that power subjects women. To people in the audience who think that a woman's place is second to their husband this is the furthest the argument can be taken.

@9:40 - Since when did Romans avoid human sacrifice? What do you think was done in front of the temple of Mars with prisoners of war paraded through the streets of Rome during triumphs (including Caesar's)? No, the Romans might have normally saved it for special occasions, but they were no strangers to human sacrifice.

My favourite use of the damsels in distress are both in One Piece The first one takes place in the Water 7 saga (3 arcs Water 7, Enies Lobby and Post Enies Lobby) Where it shows Pirate Nico Robin captured by the world government And it uses this to not only explore the MC as an MC but uses it to incredibly develop Robin (The damsel) and make it clear who she is as a character while destroying me emotionally as a reader And the second is in Whole Cake Island And it's sanji the 3rd best fighter of the Crew and the chef Sanji can't break out and is forces into a marriage And again We use this to explore who he is and stuff that has been drip fed for 20 years and now we finally know the rest Two amazing example

All of the "pun-etymologies" saying that Easter was just stolen from pre-existing holidays are infuriating because IT'S ONLY CALLED "EASTER" IN ENGLISH AND GERMAN. Everyone else calls it some cognate of Passover. Yes, some of the *specific trappings* of the celbrations of Easter and Christmas in *certain cultures* come from pre-Christian elements of those cultures, but like... yeah, no shit, that's how cultural mixture works. Germans who convert to Christianity because of their exposure to Rome don't just culturally transmogrify into culturally Roman Christians. They're just Christians. Who are culturally German. Which includes culturally German traditions and ways of celebrating winter and spring and whatnot. There's no grand conspiracy or anything, and all the histronics about the ~pagan origins of Christianity~ are just people not understanding how culture fucking works.

About the hop from Old English to Middle English, there may well have been an important step along the way: the Vikings settling in England. I shall explain. If you've studied German, you know there are four cases, three genders, plus singular and plural; it gets complicated. Old English a.k.a. Anglo-Saxon had all of those same features, and was comparably complicated, and I stress that a lot of that was not strictly necessary for comprehensibility. So what happens when, as a a resident of Mercia (or wherever), you find there are Danes moving in next to you who don't speak Anglo-Saxon? Well, you'll probably start speaking a very very stripped-down version of Anglo-Saxon, with as few of the inflections as were strictly necessary, so that you can engage in meaningful communication. It would have sounded like caveman talk -- "you may borrow plough; we can drink beer this evening" -- but it was adequate. That is, I postulate, what Old English turned into, after only a couple generations of Danish neighbors and nobody bothering with dative masculine inflections in everyday speech. We already know that the Danes introduced a lot of vocabulary; they even brought some redundant cognates, for example "skirt" to go along with Anglo-Saxon "shirt". So there is plenty of evidence of linguistic influence, and it may have gone past vocabulary. "But we have writings in Old English well past the Danish settlement that still have all the cases and genders and stuff! Explain that, smart guy!" Yes, those writings were using traditional picture-perfect Old English, but note that they were very formal, very official writings. That was the language of highly educated men making very important records, so it's very likely that they were writing in the most educated fashion. It was (I speculate) almost exactly the same way how the Latin used on the streets of Paris morphed into French, while in the monasteries they were still writing in very formal Latin. Anyway, that's what I suspect happened to all the inflections that were features of Old English but not Middle English. Once that was done, all that was left was loading Old English up with French / Latin vocabulary to bring it to Middle English.

I get what she’s saying about rey but the problem is that her just learning force powers on the spot is a bit of a stretch. Before Luke could levitate objects with the force he had to train with yoda and yet here Rey is managing to Jedi mind trick someone with no prior experience. The force isn’t something you can just use, its a very soft magic system but its still established that you need training and experience to pull it off effectively. On that note however imagine if ray still used the force but it was very clearly shown that it was unfocused and unrefined possibly even dipping into her using the dark side. Imagine an escape sequence of her ripping apart the station as her untrained force powers run rampant tearing the place apart around her as she fights her way out in frantic desperation.

Curious fact: There is a major meteor shower, the Perseids, that seems to come out of the Perseus constellation. A shower of gold? And one of the stars that now comprises Medusa's head is Algul, which, because it is actually a binary star system, winks out every three days as one star eclipses the other. The eye of the Graeae?

I always thought that his role in society way back when was that (just like the gods would) he was blamed for things going wrong like- oh this minor inconvenience happened? Guess Loki was messing with you, so basically you prayed to him so that hopefully he would be satisfied and not pull a prank on you and you’d have overall better luck 😅

When my dad and I were watching The Librarians for a while, I was absolutely baffled by the main characters' romantic subplot and I honestly hated it. I didn't catch any sort of buildup - I suppose maybe there was some I missed, I can very often be as oblivious to this stuff as Red, but iirc they've kissed by the end of episode 1 or 2 and that first kiss to me was ????? because I frankly did not see the chemistry at all, and continued to not see the chemistry through three and a half seasons. My dad was very confused by *my* confusion and said I was just a cynic, but I stand by my opinion that it was Not Good.

Loki is from the word Lúka, it's the noun form of the word. Lúka means to end in that case, it's the dative form Lokit and Loki is the proper noun of that verb. Oh and it means Concluder. And he most likely was a God of Law and Order. He was the one to bring the Judgment of the Gods, Ragnarok. The only god who was innocent was Baldur, and as such Baldur was the only god spared in Ragnarok. This is the most likely scenario, as even Odinn's name means Mad One. This also makes sense with Utgarda Loki. As Utgarda Loki gave trials to Thor Loki and their 2 servants. Impossible trials, such as drinking the ocean, fighting time, lifting the world, and racing against thought.

The vengeful parent angle was not one I was expecting for Loki, but honestly I kind of like it! Also it wasn't mentioned in the video, but Loki was bound to that rock under a snake by his son's entrails. After the Aesir turned said son's brother into a wolf and had him murder him. So a little more torturing of Loki's children to add to the pile.
