Ares also kinda gets a bad rep. Both he and Athena are gods of war, but he’s not nearly as cruel as she is. Doesn’t rape anyone and is a pretty decent father. Poseidon called him a bitch, so when Poseidon’s son raped his daughter, he straight up killed the guy and then brought Poseidon the corpse
@@DrFunkman i know what Ares did is illegal nowadays but...as any good father should imo It's also unsurprising that the only decent people in a whole pantheon of c*nts are regarded as the ones out of line
The scorpion stung the frog as they were halfway across the river and the frog said "But now we shall both surely drown". "lol" said the Scorpion, "lmao".
As chill as Hades was in general, he was still absolutely terrifying to the ancient greeks, and Persephone was actually *scarier* a lot of the time. She often gets modern interpretations as this innocent flower goddess, but her epithet was "*Dread* Persephone." She was a straight-up queen of the dead. Basically Hades and Persephone were pretty chill as long as you didn't provoke them, as some less-than-clever individuals did (Sisyphus cheated death *twice* by tricking Thanatos and lying to persephone's face, so he gets to roll a boulder up a hill forever, and the idiot who tried to kidnap persephone got tied to a chair by venomous snakes forever). for a more comprehensive look at greek gods and such, I definitely recommend Overly Sarcastic Productions myth videos
16:30 If you're talking about the Medusa from the metamorphosis, you should know that ovid just made a bunch of stuff up because he was anti-authority and who is more authoritary than the gods. Medusa was just a monster in the mythos previous to the metamorphosis.
@@KipReactsthat Medusa you speak of comes from a collection of myths written by a man called Ovid. He changed a number of myths to use the gods as metaphors for the cruelty of the ruling politicians of Rome in his time So Medusa, Arachne and a few others got done super dirty in that version of the myths Prior to Ovid, Medusa was not turned into a monster, she was born a monster (aka was never actually a person)
Thanatos is the god of death, and also the guy that looks over the titans as they where imprisoned in his realm. From what I recall thanatos is the same as gaia and oranos, older than the titans and the litterly embodiment of an element, gaia is the planet, oranos is the sky, thanatos is death itself. As I recall he doesn't go out and reap souls, he just sits in his realm and the souls of the dead go on a journey/travel to hades/Persephone's garden where the pure ones go to the garden and the non pure to hades, this was taken by christans to be that Persephone's garden is heaven and hades is hell. Both hades and Persephone where unfaithful, however they didn't do it as much as the other greek gods, and they in most tales actually love eachother, from what I recall hades slept with 2 mortals and Persephone had an affair with a guy that's often portrayed as mortal with the hotnis of a god, from what I recall of him he was in a few love affairs with Persephone and Aphrodite with the 2 fighting over him, he also had other male lovers and is where androgynous comes from. "Apollo, Heracles and Dionysus. He was described as androgynous for he acted like a man in his affections for Aphrodite but as a woman for Apollo. "Androgynous" here means that Adonis took on a passive "feminine" role in his love with Apollo."
Turning shit to gold would be useful for electronics and space equipment. Cuz gild are used as a component in many such tech and is a partially a part of why its more expensive.
Soooooo... On the anime opening, when they say "oni-chan", the subtitles used the wrong kanji so intead of writing 'brother-chan' they wrote 'demon-chan' :)
Having a lot of gold would be good for the electronics industry. Just imagine how many parts use gold for connectors & processor chips & circuit boards. Plus, you can make them better by using gold instead of copper.
"Two armies select their strongest fighter, to have the lowest loss of Life" I can think of Two things. Either, Rocky 4... or Robot Jocks as a example of using this concept in fiction.
They should make s scorpion-based Archetype to specifically counter the Frog/Toad archetypes. Something with a temporary benefit before the counter, maybe?
The throwing stones in a glass house thing is a stupid metaphor cause A. Hypocrisy and being wrong is not the same thing, you can be a hypocrite but still be right about your criticism and B. Who lives in a glass house?
But... that's the thing. It's about hypocrisy, not being wrong. It's about criticizing someone for something you also have/do/have done. Your criticism may be valid, but if someone throws it back to you, it's also still valid, and suddenly you have no ground because now you look just as bad.
It’s kind of amazing that the guy in charge of the underworld is the one god that doesn’t cheat in pretty much all greek mythology.
He's just vibin'.
@@DeReAntiquait's pretty hard to talk about Thanatos when you believe just saying Thanatos will kill someone
I vibe with him so hard. He is a great lad

I was referring to Medusa from Greek mythology. She got done dirty in her story.

To be fair slingshot is david's weapon while goliath got sword and shield, its not like hes defenceless
always remember the kids next door episode where instead of gold it was chocolate.

Kurzgesagt "in a nutshell" got a very funny video to king midas "The Gold Apocalypse"

I enjoy reading about Greek mythology and I've come to the conclusion that it's almost like the edgiest fanfiction ever created
This 100%.

The moral for David & Goliath is not to underestimate your opponent, even if he is smaller than you.

Also, The Boat Oar is just a Flat-ended Halberd, which explains why he won.
I think you would like Puppet History from The Watcher channel. They actually did an episode on the samurai you talked about, Musashi 21:31

I didn't know ordinary things was on Ted talk and his channel is pretty good
You might get a kick out of "Sam O'Nella" or "Overly Sarcastic Productions"
I love OSP!
@@KipReactsAbsolutely Based
LOL
Precautionary censor of the opening, I see.
Never can be too careful nowadays.
How can turning things into gold be useful?touch your enemies and see how well they fight
I think they did that in Charlotte, well he would turn their guns into gold, making them heavy and useless.
How do you feel about payday 3
Looking forward to it. One of the few games I might pre-order.
Medusa was literally just livid g her life after getting cursed by Aphrodite for Poisiden not showing up and cheating on her.
I thought it was Athena's fault Medusa's like that?
