From Wikipedia:

According to the Christian writer Clement of Alexandria, Dionysus was guided in his journey by Prosymnus or Polymnus, who requested, as his reward, to be Dionysus' lover. Prosymnus died before Dionysus could honor his pledge, so to satisfy Prosymnus' shade, Dionysus fashioned a phallus from a fig branch and penetrated himself with it at Prosymnus' tomb. This story survives in full only in Christian sources, whose aim was to discredit pagan mythology, but it appears to have also served to explain the origin of secret objects used by the Dionysian Mysteries.

Who's we?

They'll probably stay in zoos or preserves.

They were here pretty recently, their food is still here. It was cruel that we extincted them.

You won! I watched the video and I was completely right. Fuck, people on internet are stupid.

Hm, nah. Have a better title and maybe I'll spend my time on it.

And go fuck yourself for resorting to personal attacks.

Well, for starters I didn't watch the video - only the title.

It sounds dumb because it doesn't matter if coal is 4x less CO2, coal is nonrenewable. It's a mute point. So, to me, the title sounds like pro-coal BS.

Again, didn't watch.

I don't think palatable nutritional vegan cat food exists, at least none with any empirical evidence its safe for cats long-term.

I was stung by a bullet ant (see username).

I think "used to be" is key here. After 911 there were tons of violent anti Muslim videos.
