    1. Screencap of email from pb telling me my photobucket account has been deleted, dated September 2022.

    2. Screencap from pb offering me "opt out" (negative option) from their intention to sell whatever biometrics they can harvest from my photos to whomever will buy it from them.

    Does anyone believe they haven't already monetized this?

    Or that they're not still lying?

    PLEASE BOOST

  2. It's the #DayOfDionysos here at Erotic Mythology! 🍇

    "Note that the ancients used the word phlyein (to luxuriate) of an abundant yield of fruit. So they called #Dionysos Phleon (the luxuriant), Protrygaios (the first at the vintage), Staphylites (the god of the grape), Omphakites (the god of the unripe grape), and various other #epithets."
    Aelian, Historical Miscellany 3. 41

  3. Dionysos has two swamp-related #epithets: Limnaios, Dionysos of the Marsh, and Limnegenes, "born in a lake or marsh". The epithets probably refer to a temple of #Dionysos near the Ilissos River in #Athens. According to Thucydides, the temple of Dionysos Limnaios was to the South of the Akropolis and one of the city's oldest sanctuaries.
