Homer’s Odyssey is filled with terrifying monsters; Cyclops, Scylla, Charybdis, the Sirens.
But the one who steals the most time from Odysseus is Calypso.
She doesn’t threaten him with death. She offers comfort, safety, love and keeps him from Ithaca for seven years.
Maybe that’s Homer’s deepest lesson: the greatest obstacles in life don’t always look like monsters. Sometimes, they look like comfort.
Hardships test our courage. Comfort tests our purpose.
Maybe real monsters in life don’t look like monsters !!

England will have to withstand an absolutely electric atmosphere. 🔥

George Kittle on the electrical substation next to the 49ers facility:
“The one thing that messes me up with it, this is tough, my rookie season there used to be trees in between the substation and our practice facility. There’s a fence there too and above the fence all the trees had no leafs on them, year round, all dead. Nobody notices it until you point it out. I didn’t point it out to Kyle Shanahan until 2021. A vet pointed it out to me my rookie season and I was like 'That’s kind of weird'. But then this year the NFL came in and cut them all down. So they’re not there anymore so no one can see them. So it’s only us vets that know that was the truth. I don’t think anyone talked about that yet. That one messed me up.”
@BD49ers@Chase_Senior It’s Also very new… once they start having more studies and data on it this will look crazy. Niners may have a ring or 2 if it wasn’t for EMFS.
I spoke with Dr. Christina Gavegnano about the 49ers EMF theory. She's also the director and inventor of the first human trial for a therapeutic for CTE, which is funded by the NIH. She studied at Harvard.
Here's what she had to say: "I will say: Any number of things that our bodies are exposed to has the potential to be detrimental. You grow up hearing 'don't live near power lines.' I can't say for sure about the theory. I would say anything extra that you are exposed to long-term is probably not a good thing...Collagen breakdown can come from inflammatory factors."
