Aeschylus's portrayal of disbelief extends beyond simple rejection; it manifests as an inability to process or act upon Cassandra's words, often due to her perceived madness or the sheer horror of the truths she reveals. This suggests a psychological defense mechanism at play, where uncomfortable realities are conveniently reclassified as symptoms of insanity. The divine curse, in this context, does not merely prevent belief but actively induces a perception of mental instability in the prophetess, providing a convenient justification for others to disregard her prophecies. This represents a deeper form of denial: not just rejecting the message, but rejecting the messenger's sanity to avoid confronting the message. Cassandra's poignant declaration, "And yet I know the Greek language only too well" , serves as a powerful commentary on the nature of her curse. Her prophetic knowledge is not flawed in its content or expression, but rather in its reception.

🎶 What did you think I'd say to that?
Does a scorpion sting when fighting back?
They strike to kill and you know I will
You know I will
What do you sing on your drive home?
Do you see my face in the neighbor's lawn?
Does she smile?
Or does she mouth, "F**k you forever"?
Every time you call me crazy
I get more crazy
What about that?
And when you say I seem angry
I get more angry 🎶

Cassandra wasn’t just a cursed prophet. She was also “the rake” to Apollo.

She has the wound of the Red Scarf. 🧣

Like HIM.

Good morning! It's National Programmers Day. Here's a programming joke to celebrate: A new database query walks into a bar. The server says, "Sorry, cache only."

Anyone know any good database caching software? Particularly of the non-Oracle variety? 😂🤪
