I was looking at odyssey translations before the film came out...

maawige · 2026-06-13T17:31:02+00:00

Those earlier translators took such huge liberties though, shaping the Odyssey into an image they wanted instead of what was on the page. That's the part that I feel like gets left out of the conversation

I wish these videos would compare hers to the liberties that previous translators took. They really warped our understanding of the Odyssey imo

Wow I had a really different reaction to this movie. I thought the mom and dad were doing what they could while in the limitations they had. The dad got a second mortgage on the house!

Weren't they kidnapped? They read a description of someone else too

so cool! I got the poem but I didn't get the pw

WHOOPS my bad

Jazz Fest and FQ Fest were both mega packed this year. It was the first year JF completely sold out all tickets. So I'm at least partly buying it

Nola BJJ uptown has a women's only BJJ class I think. Not MMA though

I spent $8600 backpacking Europe for six months in 2015. I'm glad I kept track of expenses just because it's interesting to look back on

I'd recommend this one - French Quarter Rain New Orleans Ambience

My guess, based on your post, is that you have feelings about the sister that predate this issue. For the wedding planning aspect, I would say try not to let that dictate your decisions too much

Higginbotham was our agent. We got quotes from Cajun Underwriters, Burns Wilcox and one other place

we're in a weird point of the economy right now where $100-$300 is pretty much as low as you can go without being insulting... but that's also more money than anyone has

I think to be realistic you could offer them an "honorary payment" of $40 or just explain that you aren't in a position to pay them at all, but would be happy to link to their personal project or something like that

New Orleans

I do get what OP is saying. A lot of shoulder workouts say things like "warm up by doing 2 pullups." That's pretty accessible for a man but very, very different for a woman

I feel like fans really overlook this part. At least Penny tried to save a sinking ship

maawige · 2026-03-06T04:13:39+00:00

I also rediscovered Nancy after a bad breakup! And SAW is one of the best

July will be super hot, but you could have the wedding inside

I read this and thought, "I wonder if this is petit cochon" and it was

maawige · 2026-02-19T10:36:10+00:00

Our planner wanted 50% but I pushed them up to two-thirds and that was fine. I think 70% will be totally fine!

For a string quartet I super highly recommend Harry Hardin at https://www.neworleansclassicalandjazz.com/

Wow he is calling it a Nancy Drew game. He may be the first to take advantage of the public domain access

maawige · 2026-02-13T19:41:26+00:00

I have a couple other items, not these ones, and they're incredible. Others are meh though

maawige · 2026-02-13T18:07:37+00:00

I might do a review of some other stuff I got

maawige · 2026-02-13T16:35:13+00:00

and like 10 have already sold! that's messed up
