I am just deeply amused by Liza losing her mind for quite a long time and just SCREAMING AT ME about fucking pigchildren.

I love that this conversation is only moderately weirder than the actual myth.

Even more than that, I love Loki's weird childbearing ways. According to Wikipedia, he once spent eight years as a woman having babies. Plus, when he ran off to sleep with a female frost giant, the children he had with her were a giant wolf, a giant snake, and Hel. Loki is a font of multispecies children.

Also, there was the time a giant stole Thor's hammer and demanded to marry Freyja, so Thor and Loki put on pretty dresses and went to the wedding and Thor got his hammer back and killed everyone with a hammer.

I've just been reading about how Loki was also the god of ergi, which is basically "sexual deviance", which included "taking the passive role in gay sex".

So he's the official Norse god of men bottoming and anything else considered potentially deviant? Awesome!

The thing I love about the whole Sleipnier incident was that supposedly, it was Odin that put him up to it. Loki was to distract the stallion of the giant that was building the wall around Asgard, so Odin didn't have to pay him for it.

I'm pretty sure whatever odin was paying, it wasn't enough.

Odin is the WORST FATHER.

IT'S LIKE A SCRAPBOOK OF THE BEST THINGS I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED

Well Loki was supposed to be the god of being a total douche, so I definitely get him killing Balder. What interests me is he is apparently also god of ergi? I LIKE IT.
