I know you do, and I figured it would be in your wheelhouse.I love that modern musical vibe.
@JustAnotherFlower is also a big fan. She is the one who introduced me.@Chloe_Harper i feel like this is something you might know about or be into?
My eldest child is a theater kid and EPIC has been playing on repeat in our house the last week or two. And I'm not mad about that at all.Has anyone here listened to/gotten into EPIC: The Musical ?
I’m about to delve in

I recorded this for this on my thread, but this is what I am talking about with Wilson's translation fitting the feel of the musical.I love that modern musical vibe. I just finished the first section and I’m obsessed already. This might become my newest hyper fixation.
I got hooked on this one little clip thats being used on TikTok, where Odysseus wakes up and meets calypso. I can’t get it out of my head so I figured I should check out the whole thing.

Oh, I want to get into Epic! I know some of the songs, but have yet to dive in because I know it will be my obsession for a while. But now that we've brought it up...

Well... that's not Epic
It gets derided as Homer for Dummies because she cuts parts of the text, but they are missing the point of the project. She doesn't claim to be replacing Latimer's translation or anything. She limits her lines to the same number as Homer used in order to get the same spoken feel. She uses iambic pentameter for Western ears rather than dactylic hexameter, but the idea is the same : to sound and feel like the Greek audiences heard it originally. It is meant to be read aloud (and I admit, that is what I do when reading it alone ). I would love to find a performance of it by someone with a good voice.This has piqued my interest…
Might have to check it out because I never cared that much about this story and now I’m invested.

That can be taken in a number of ways.Ohhhh... I might have fucked up that muscle...
I did something to an ab muscle. Yeah, no sit ups or coughing any time soon.That can be taken in a number of ways.
Unfortunately, I think it is not one of the fun ones...
Oh, my flower! Ab muscles are the worst...I did something to an ab muscle. Yeah, no sit ups or coughing any time soon.
I never realized flowers had abs. You learn something new every dayI did something to an ab muscle. Yeah, no sit ups or coughing any time soon.
In good news.. I hate sit ups! Cable crunches seem okay if I go slow and keep the weight light.Oh, my flower! Ab muscles are the worst...
Yep. You forget that some flowers are carnivorous. We need abs to close our petals and encapsulate our prey.I never realized flowers had abs. You learn something new every day
