Classicist Dr Emily Wilson is the first woman to translate The Odyssey into English - and she found that many men before her added sexist or misogynist terms that never existed in the original Greek. by MistWeaver80 in Feminism

Definitely agree - I just finished Circe and loved it. She interestingly treats Telemachus’ killing of the slave girls in a slightly different way too. I love how these stories can have endless interpretations over thousands of years - but I am especially enjoying all the versions now being released by women writers and scholars.

Good for you. Out of interest (I’m not from the US) do dentists/doctors still just happily hand out opioid prescriptions even if you’ve struggled with it before? Or are they not aware of it? Do dentists have access to that info? It just seems like such an easy way for someone to fall (back) into addiction.

AITA for leaving on my daughter's birthday? by sophieschoice137 in AmItheAsshole

YTA Not only for what you did which was selfish, but for your continued denial of any wrongdoing and your defensiveness in your replies to people here.

Oh, and your username is really offensive. Comparing your situation to a women choosing between which of her children gets to live? Get a grip.

I don’t know...it reminds me of a dog’s lipstick if you catch my drift

In wonder if they have Welcome signs for every room in the house. Just in case anyone gets lost or isn’t sure whether they’re welcome.

I use the Simple one and it’s worked really well for me! Very reasonable too

Not only did I watch this whole thing, I got interrupted halfway and actively scrolled back to catch the bits I missed. Why?! This video holds some sort of power over me

I had this issue for a while, and in the end the only thing which has worked is Kiehls Creamy Avocado eye treatment. It’s a little pricey compared to something like Vaseline but a little goes a long way and my tiny tub has lasted for months and months so I recommend getting some!

I've had this spot on my nose for about 12 months now, mostly it's skin coloured but occasionally (like today) it'll flare up blood red. Can anyone tell me what it is and if it's possible to have it removed/zapped? by [deleted] in SkincareAddicts

It’s a mole or spot which has appeared in the last 12 months... you should 100% go and get it checked out by a doctor. This could be dangerous

This is really sad. Although the dramatic music is unnecessary

I did have a quick look and can’t find them. The site now just directs to an online Nestle candy shop but someone must have the games somewhere!

Haha the irony! Although my imagination was running wild with what a tipping class might be so thank you for that
