That woman on the bull is Europa (Ancient Greek Εὐρώπη, Eurṓpē), daughter of the Phoenician king Agenor, lived about 2000 BCE. The bull is the shapeshifted Zeus that is kidnapping Europa. They had sex and sired Minos, king of Crete. Minos is the one who feed the Minotaur by sending children into its labyrinth.
The bull that fathered the Minotaur was not Zeus, it was a gift by Poseidon who expected king Minos to sacrifice the bull to Poseidon. The king kept the gift and sacrificed another bull, Poseidon got pissed and had the king’s wife screw the bull, giving birth to the Minotaur.
You know, I watched that show Netflix canceled, with Jeff Goldblum, and so I’m like, hey, that’s right! Sure, could’ve paid attention in school, but better Nate than lever.
it’s in the terms of service agreement; you agree that they can use telemetry to determine what you like and whenever they detect that you like a show they will cancel it immediately.
I’m an ignorant American, what’s the significance of the bull/ox?

Yeah Greek mythology is weird.

Kaos was sooooooo good. Netflix is really doing shit.
Why the fuck did netflix cancel season 2 of Kaos??

Kaos is the show you’re thinking of.
The Longest Joke in the World is the Nate and lever reference (well worth the read).
Wait, I thought the minotaur was the son of the king of Minos’ wife? Did gods do double-damage on his bloodline?
I bet they did more than that.
The whole god/demigod/etc. ancestry is totally fucked up. Zeus copulated with every woman he could find, even his sisters!
EU - “Nation States”
Thanks! I just googled it and it mentioned “Europa and the bull” representing unity and peace.
We could definitely use some of that, but unfortunately we just get a bunch of what the bull leaves behind instead… :/
