  • that’s a very reductionist view of mythology though. surely people back then didn’t know the diameter of an atom, but they made observations and packed these observations into neat, memorizable stories. hypochondria is a real phenomenon, and what i’m guessing is that the greek mythologers connected “bringing knowledge to the people” to hypochondria.

    i’m making that claim because i’ve observed various times in my life that hypochondria seems to affect a certain type of people, me included. and i kinda resonate with what prometheus was supposed to stand for. so that’s that.
