A phobia is an uncontrollable, often irrational fear which drastically alters your behavior and decisions. So, someone could be afraid of the ocean but power through it. I myself am nervous on the waves ever since I witnessed somebody drown a few years ago, but I can be on a boat, even if a little anxiously. But someone with thalassophobia would not be able to sit on a boat, and would do everything they could to avoid coming close to it. It’s an incredibly profound fear which taps into out most basic survival instinct, and which can’t be confronted except by attending specialized therapy for it, and even then it’s an arduous and uncomfortable process which most people agree is not worth the hassle unless your phobia is directly affecting your daily life or making you actively miserable. You literally need to reprogram your mind to be able to deal with a phobia in a healthy way.

Though Plato was significantly closer, he was still 700 years out from the Collapse, and what he most certainly *didn't* have was modern archeology and our various methods of gaining extra information, plus detailed analysis of seemingly unrelated things (as in, we can go "hang on we lose records of these people at the same time as these other people appear way further away with a kinda similar looking culture, maybe there was a collapse and migration")

There's more to being the leader than winning fights. A while back I had a fight break out between the tank alpha and a younger, more ambitious male. The younger one bit off the alpha's fin during the fight and since he was still able to pick the direction he wanted to swim in, that pretty solidly meant he won. But winning didn't earn him any respect from the other fish. The females exclusively hung out with the fish who had his fin bitten off and not the one who did the biting. They weren't willing to let a male that violent breed, winner or not. These little guys have like a tenth of the number of neurons as bees have. They're too stupid to swim their way out of an open box. But even for them, there's zero respect for violence and intimidation as a form of social advancement.

Fun fact: Tolkien loved the Atlantis myth so much that he wrote it into Númenor (even having the warmongering!) but when he realized what he was doing he kind-of panicked because "oh come on I should have gone for something more subtle than that..." and desperately wanted to make sure at least the name for the story didn't reference it too obviously. So he called it Akallabeth in Númenorean, which means something like "the sinking/descent". He was happy with that name too. Then he translated it into Quenya (one of his Elvish languages). And it was ATALANTE. :'D

I _adore_ the Doggerland-as-Atlantis theory, which also makes Ys and Lyonesse seem like mythologized remnants of the memory of the Storegga Slide (with some good ole’ misogynistic moralizing thrown in).

The bits about telling Blue to go watch Atlantis, when he's thalassophobic, THOSE ARE JOKES. Seriously. Don't push people to face their phobias unless you are a therapist trained specifically in that kind of therapy. That's the ONLY way that ever ends well. Especially don't demand people do something they're phobic about or terrified of, if you're really just denying that their fears exist. That's even worse.

Hey yo so this story as well as what you have said about Doggerland reminded me of a similar Welsh myth about a sunken civilisation (side note I have been to the petrified forest at the beach at Borth that people have said points to the fact that this mythological kingdom exists). The story goes that the kingdom was called Cantre'r Gwaelod which existed where Cardigan Bay now is. The prince of the Kingdom was in charge of manning the floodgates against the sea, but he got drunk one night and neglected his duties, causing the sea to sweep into the kingdom and flood it all. In Aberdovey, there is a huge bell underneath the pier, which the waves cause to ring as the tide goes in and out. It is meant to represent the sunken bell towers of the drowned kingdom, which are still supposed to ring in times of trouble

6:20 Well, there once was a barrier separating the mediterranian sea from the atlantic. That narrow passageway at Gibraltar hadn't always been there, and this separation of the oceans even lead to the mediterranian sea DRYING UP, leaving nothing behind but a salt desert and some hypersaline lakes. Now here's the issue: That whole shenanigan, which we refer to as the Messinian Event, happened about 6 Million years ago. At the end of the Miocene era. And it hasn't happened again since! So for Atlantis' debris to be forming a blockade at the Passage of Gibraltar, they'd be about 5,991 Million years late.

Dinotopia actually had a unique twist to Atlantis by having the myth be inspired by the Dinotopian empire of Poseidos, with was named after an island off of Dinotopia's eastern coast.

Your map of Atlantis made me realize something about the Warhammer old world I've always thought that it was suspiciously similar to the real world map and when you placed Atlantis at the western end of the Mediterranean I realized that the High Elves are supposed to be Atlantis, making the border princes France/Spain, Norsca and the Russian lady are fairly obvious. Which means that... The Dark Elves the savage murderous traitors that **** and ****** their slaves are... Native Americans who fled from Atlantis? And that the southern lands filled with brutal Orcs and Egyptian inspired Tomb Kings are located on.... Africa. Hmm... I can't imagine why they scrapped the old setting, it was so in depth it almost felt like a real world set from the perspective of a small empire that... Tried to reach out and... Colonize... The "savage races" of other lands.... You know I take it back I think I'm starting to get why it got scrapped for a more fantasy-ish setting

Human nature isn't good or bad, it's selfish. Some people descide that the best thing for them is to be supported by efficient systems and safety in numbers, others descide that the bes thing for them is to be self sufficient and capable of working within any environment they find themselves in. We have a hard time stepping out of our own shoes and seeing the world through the eyes of another, it's a skill we have to learn from childhood or we'll struggle with it all our lives. But that's not to say that the Left sees from another perspective while the Right only sees for themselves, it's that because this skill is learned and not innate the help which we think other people need is filtered through a lens of what we need and what works for us personally.

There's a Welsh "Atlantis" myth called "Cantref Gwaelod", which is about a kingdom that was located in Cardigan bay (roughly the dark green area to the west of Wales @11:03). Now it is unlikely that it existed, especially not long enough for the Britons to write about, but I suspect it was a myth made up when the ancient people found strange artifacts on the beaches at low tide. Even today after storms have washed enough sand away, you can find petrified tree stumps and what look like walls (they aren't walls, just some geological oddity) on the beaches of Ynys Las and Borth, which probably inspired the stories.

Even painted a map of the Atlantic with it in its theoretical place - though what I drew was WAY bigger than Texas lol Also The Lost Empire is an amazing movie that deserves way more attention. The Yugioh season was also really fun.

I relate so much to the fact there are always bigger fish. This weird feeling between desiring to personally see a colossal squid and the knowledge that I'd probably shit my pants at a glimpse in the deep sea.

The true Atlantis is the friends you've made along the way!

Okay, but how about a City Review: Atlanta, where Red/Blue get ornery about how dry and lacking in fish people it all is.

I love the idea of people thousands of years in the future searching the galaxy trying to find Middle Earth.

So glad you liked Aquaman! It was legit good, and as someone who sympathizes with Blue about deep water, it's just scary enough to evoke awe at the appropriate moments and bring out fun where there should be fear. That scene where he's being chased by the deepdwellers as he dives into the inky stormy sea was breathtaking!
