Tug of War

The Dining Hall is the perfect place to take a break from your studies. Meet your fellow students or colleagues to chat about anything else the world has to offer. For the most part, any interest you want to share is fair game—just steer clear of contemporary politics.

There is a myth where Tiresias comes across two snakes mating, so he grabs a stick and hits the two, which results in him transforming into a woman. He becomes a prostitute, and years later he sees another pair of snakes mating. He hits them with a stick again, and he transforms back into a man. Then Hera and Zeus appear. Turns out they had an argument about who sex feels better for. Men or women. And they used Tiresias as their subjects. Tiresias ended up saying that women experience more pressure during sex than men, so Zeus won the argument. Hera got angry at losing, so she cursed Tiresias to be blind. Zeus felt bad about it, so he gave him the gift of prophecy and exceptional longevity.
And that's one of the versions of how Tiresias became blind.

The weather in the world outside my window is that miserable combination of hazy, hot and humid. I feel like I am walking around inside the mouth of some much, much, much larger mammal.
