This is the famous statue of Athena outside of Parlament¹ in Vienna. As you may remember, Athena has always been my favorite of the Greeks gods. She could kick butt when she needed to, but had the wisdom to know when not to. As for her unfortunate participation in the Trojan War, we'll just let bygones be bygones.
¹That's German for parliament.
if trump was in charge at that time he'd have athena imprisoned and shoveling shit out of the royal latrine
Athena was smart enough (and attractive enough) to have had Trump wrapped around her little finger, and powerful enough to have held him under her thumb.
Come to think of it, that's what Trump lacked in his youth--a woman smart enough and strong enough to have set him straight.
well, trump never selected women of remotely similar social rank
ivana's father was an electrical engineer, marla's father was a county commissioner/real estate developer, and melania's father was a chauffeur
these women could all be easily discarded with very few repercussions
This would be destroyed in Oklahoma for violating the Ten Commandments.
That is a very nice picture of a very nice statue.
I always liked Athena. Good statue. She was very helpful to Odysseus ... if anything he ever said could be believed. That whole "voyages" thing? Clearly a total lie, along with everything else.
A good story could be made of what he was really doing all those years, when Penelope was keeping the home fires burning, raising Telemachus, and fighting off the hordes of suitors.
Plus, I mean, doughnuts. She got doughnuts.
Or possibly bagels.
