This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Aristotle? /s

Went down the rabbit hole on this one. I think I side with

Some scholars argue that although Sappho would not have understood modern conceptions of sexuality, lesbianism has always existed and she was fundamentally a lesbian.

We sure do like our tribalism though... crazy homo sapiens. I got love for all.

Anyone got a best of Sappho recommendation for the casual sophist?
