It's the #DayOfZeus / Jupiter's Day / Thorsday! ⚡

"If anyone blame me because, a skilled servant of Eros, I go to the chase, my eyes armed with birdlime to catch ladies, let him know that #Zeus and #Hades and the Lord of the Sea [#Poseidon] were slaves of violent desire. If the gods are such and they bid men follow their example, what wrong do I do in learning their deeds?"
Anthologia Graeca, Epigram 5.100

From the Topsy-Turvy #Terrace of Temporal #Tumbleweeds The #Poobah says “#Stan once built a #pergola on the #beach, convinced it would #shade the entire #sea. #Ollie, wiping #seawater from his #bowler, muttered, ‘Well, that’s another fine ______ you’ve gotten us into.’ Moments later, #Poseidon popped by to complain about the lack of #sun #loungers.”

"You just try it, #solly!" 🤣

Attention, #Great_Britain!

#Russian propagandist #Solovyev:

"If we have to, we'll travel by boats over where #London used to be. We could just use half of #Poseidon nuclear torpedo, and that's all. The water surface will swallow this puppet show, and no one will remember what was there. The only problem we will have is not to hit #Big_Ben with the boat's bottom."

So #Zeus was overcome by love and sleep, all according to plan. He was sleeping peacefully on the crest of Mount Ida where he held his wife in his arms. Meanwhile #Hypnos flew off to tell #Hera's ally #Poseidon that he could now help the Greeks and give them victory while Zeus was still sleeping.

"#Poseidon and Helios might be said to be rivals. And it may be that Helios was vexed at the boy [Nerites] travelling about in the sea and wished that he should travel among the constellations instead of being counted among the Ketea (sea monsters)."
Aelian, On Animals 14.28

It's the Day of Ares / Mars' Day / #Tuesday! 🗡️

"Agraulos [daughter of Kekrops king of #Athens] and #Ares had a daughter Alkippe. As Halirrhothios, son of #Poseidon and a nymphe named Eurtye, was trying to rape Alkippe, Ares caught him at it and slew him. Poseidon had Ares tried on the Areopagos with the twelve gods presiding. Ares was acquitted."
Pseudo-Apollodorus, Bibliotheca 3.180
