Don't You Hate it When... 🤬

... you work out an elaborate reply to a post and when you click "Submit" you'll be notified that the post no longer exists... 🤬☠️🤬
That post was titled "If you were to start an OnlyFans, what kind of content would you post? Lol." and my well thought-out and carefully worded reply would have been:
My OnlyFans would deal predominantly with the history of conic sections, which can be traced back to Ancient Greece. Menaechmus is credited with the discovery of conic sections around the years 360-350 B.C. Modern aspects would have to be taken into account as well, such as the theory of limits according to Bolzano and Cauchy which clearly show that a straight line is the limit of a parabola a + b*x + c* x*x for c –> 0. 😑

@NativePortlander1970 Ancient Greek intellectuals weren't at all interested in things like religion, their religion was a ridiculous parody, with their many Gods banging human girls all the time, producing hundreds of demi-Gods as a result, their Divine wives being jealous, doing beauty contests against human girls, etc. Like a cheap heavenly soap opera. Read the Iliad if you don't believe me.
On the other hand, the Greeks killed the guy who first found out that the square root of two cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers...
I love Ancient Greece 🥰
@helenS Don't forget that the myth of Prometheus was the basis for the garden of eden myth as well, except for that little detail of crows eating his liver every night, only to regenerate every morning.

@NativePortlander1970 Yes that's true. In my opinion, that myth does not represent the true Greek spirit. It's much too serious, and it's reactionary.
@helenS Yet, by what I understand, it's one of the first myths as Prometheus is a Titan, preceeding some of the more ridiculus ones, like Narcissis.
