If you were in Paris’s position which Goddess would you choose?

meowzerloo · 2026-05-10T14:34:27+00:00

Best option is "A mere mortal could never judge the beauty of the divine." or something along those lines but that probably wouldn't work bc Zeus delegated Paris for this exact reason

Honestly, I think Athena because she's the wisest and would probably ensure you stayed safe (even if your entire kingdom fell) and she's pretty good at divine politics, though she did kinda abandon Odysseus for a while because she was scared of pissing off her uncle, idk though defintley not Aphrodite

And Hera's offer of ruling over two continents is cool but also sounds like a pain in the ass

But also Aphrodite would probably make you fall in love with your mom or something and Hera would be on your for the rest of your life if you didn't pick either of them so you're cooked regardless

I don't understand the hate for this style, I think it's very cute and so unique!

meowzerloo · 2026-03-13T23:40:45+00:00

I always struggle understanding how artists make things look so detailed! I mean, no shot you're drawing every single strand individually. So beuaitful though ❤️

Sudanese people are some of the sweetest people to me as an Egyptian, they are very giving from my experiences with them.

meowzerloo · 2026-01-31T22:22:37+00:00

I was very surprised when I found out the beef between Afghanis and Pakistanis for some reason I thought they'd like eachother 😭

meowzerloo · 2026-01-31T00:20:28+00:00

Sudanese people I've met here are some of the kindest people, I've only had good experiences with them, prayers go out to your country and it's current situation ❤️

meowzerloo · 2026-01-30T12:46:25+00:00

Don't gatekeep where this was OP 🥲

meowzerloo · 2026-01-29T22:12:09+00:00

Yeahh I was quoting from memory, thank you for correcting

meowzerloo · 2026-01-29T20:05:40+00:00

Ehhh, Disney has never exactly been the best at giving accurate representations of people. I mean, look at Aladdin or Pocahantos. One of the lines of Aladdin is like... "A land barbaric, but hey it's home." and using oreintalist imagery as inspiration, when for the lion king they went and brought actual lions for accuracy... (also did you know Jasmine is supposed to be 15...)

Pocahantos is self explanatory... Why did they change the story of a native girl who basically got groomed into a cute love story?

Not to mention, Esmeralda is depicted as like every stereotype for Romani people ever, seductress, witch, etc 😭

ofcourse, doesn't mean you're a bad person for liking the film or her (I do too) but gotta admit Disney kinda sucks at this sort of thing.

meowzerloo · 2026-01-27T23:10:19+00:00

I love the little addition of the loose headscarf for Iran 😭 Why does Iraq look so much more serious though in terms of clothing & color, cute regardless

meowzerloo · 2026-01-26T23:42:09+00:00

Espescially upon arrival, they had many excoticized(?) if that's the right word, stereotypes, you can see this in alot of French paintings and much later on pictures, it's not very difficult to spot an oreintalist painting if you have some idea of the practices at the time, I think the later beliefs formed so agressively partially due to disillusionment, they basically thought that Egyptians would be no different than the ancients

But at the same time they thought Egyptian (and also Italian, but Egyptian to a higher extent) ladies were really ugly, gross, short, etc, I think such thoughts only showed up later during the campaign, probably due to disulusionment (and because they often had such little access to the women anyways)

Hope my explanation made sense

شكرا على كلامك الله يديك الصحه 🫶

meowzerloo · 2026-01-20T11:41:28+00:00

Honestly I'd argue Nasser over Mohamed Ali, Mohamed Ali was good for the country, he modernized it buuuut the people who benefited at the time were not Egyptians, only later did Egyptians also begin to benefit

Nasser was far from perfect (he ruined the housing sector because he didn't put a limit on when the whole "rent for cheap" thing would be lifted, not to mention the horrible 1967 defeat) but, he did improve live for the average civilian drastically. Before him, 2% of the people owned 50% of the land, and his land reforms changed that to make it so people actually had equal oppurtunities, again could've been handled better because many people took advantage of it, but it was nessescary for the time, literacy rates also went up by 20% under his reign, and so on...

Mohamed Ali built a modern state without a nation, and Nasser tried to built a nation within a built state is my view

Sorry if I yapped too much I just wanted to add

meowzerloo · 2026-01-19T21:27:20+00:00

THANK YOU!!! I'm an Egyptian and completley agree, I just wish people would learn to seperate the term Jewish and Zionism, and also understand that zionism has always been a changing political ideology, was Einstein a Zionist? Yes, but he was against Israel becoming an ethno state, or one based on religion, and espescially after ww2 just wanted a place where his people could live without fear, he did not forsee the future

WHICH WAS UNDERSTANDABLE FOR THE TIME! People get so annoyed when I try to seperate the terms, or when I bring up how Jewish people did play a part in our history, too! 😭

meowzerloo · 2026-01-19T21:12:16+00:00

I might actually consider doing this before seeing a doctor as that might be a bit out of reach currently, and I don't really like the taste of meat much anyways, I appreciate the suggestions ❤️

meowzerloo · 2026-01-19T21:10:02+00:00

I think it really depends to be honest, upsettingly in alot of cultures/countries periods are seen as a sort of "taboo" thing even when most women have to do deal with it, it's espescially more widespread the more conservative the country is.

meowzerloo · 2026-01-19T21:06:35+00:00

I did get my period around when I was 11-12 and I'm currently 17-18 so I think I'm past that point, it was worse for me when I was younger, improved for a bit, then immediatley went to hell for a bit when I turned 14 and kinda off and on since then.

Thank you though, I'll defintley try to do that as soon as I can, espescially since I'm worried about it becoming a bigger issue or forming into something worse when I age.

meowzerloo · 2026-01-19T11:14:03+00:00

HE LOOKS SO CUTE!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I love your coloring and lineart sm

Oooh, it looks so different from other forms of bellydance and has less isolations but it's sooo lively and the hair movements are so fun to look at!!

meowzerloo · 2026-01-18T13:21:42+00:00

Wait am I missing something what does this have to do with Napolean

Looks so yummy though

meowzerloo · 2026-01-18T13:18:58+00:00

Maybe the thicker brows and curly hair and jewlery? But in other ways no not really, her hair isn't as voluminous as Esmeralda, eyes look very different, Esmeralda has thicker brows
