nitpicky

i LOVE "The Alchemy" by taylor swift... but my nitpicky 🍑 just has a bit of a problem in the second verse... [Verse 2] Hey, you, what if I told you we'rе cool? That child's play back in school Is forgiven under my rule I haven't come around in so long But I'm making a comeback to where I belong

ok thats the second verse. but what i personally have problem is is the underlined lines. MORE specifically the very last line's "where I belong"

BECAUSE why is the stress in the "BE" of belong instead of the "I"??????? youre telling me "where I belong" sounds better than "where I belong"?????????????

One thing in movies/shows/books that always upsets me is when they use the wrong names when in reference to Primordials/Giants/Titans/Gods/Demigods/Legacies.

It's such a specific thing to get upset about, but it upsets me nonetheless.

Like, when they focus on Greek myths and use 'Hercules' instead of 'Heracles' or 'Cupid' instead of 'Eros' or referring to Hades as the God of the Dead. He's the God of the Underworld. Thanatos is the personification/God of Death.

Or when the focus is Roman and people forget that Pluto is not only the God of the Dead, but also the God of Wealth and Agriculture.

Another is when the focus is Norse and suddenly, Loki isn't messing with people. Or Hella is Loki and Thor's sister instead of Loki's daughter. Also, Norse Gods *can* be killed in combat. Other Pantheons cannot.

Lets not forget that all of the Creation Myths are botched in some way or another. Same with Destruction Myths.

Anyway, I do love a lot of media pertaining to the different Pantheons (like Rick Riordan's stuff and Disney's Hercules) but that doesn't mean that the tiny little nitpicks don't get me riled up.

(Another thing that upsets me is when everyone conveniently forgets that pretty much every deity in every Pantheon holds more than one position)
