  1. I love that in certain eras of art, the body language of the men portrayed has heavy homosexual undertones from today’s perspective.

    Like in this picture. Guy on the left looks like “Girl, are you OK?”

  2. From the article:

    According to mythical tales, the titan Prometheus stole fire from the Greek gods and gave it to mankind. As punishment, Zeus chained him to a rock where he could not escape the eagle that returned every day to eat his liver, which magically grew back overnight. Prometheus was bound in this excruciating fate day after day until the hero Heracles freed him.
