Every day I get closer to understanding how it must have felt when the incoming Senator was Caligula's horse.

Hey! That horse is eating our grain!

You mean that horse is looking for government waste.

The straw poll.

I'm wondering how long before you'll be stopped on the corner by a couple of characters in combat fatigues and asked, "Hey friend. You got some ID? Who'd you vote for?'

At least a horse can say Nay

For a fun surprise, Google the name of Caligula's wife

Milonia! 😂

i’d totally trade elon for a horse

kbeninato.bsky.social•15 days ago

Upgrade.

I’d prefer horses.

Same. You can trust them.

Incatatus apologist, if he knew what was happening he’d be upset.

At least Incitatus was a whole horse

Uncle Sam has turned into the Uncle that none of the children want to be left alone with.

Caligula was killed by his own people after 4 years of power though, so….

Rome fell, y'know.

hey don't blame it on the horse

I’m getting Tiberius vibes ‘let them hate me so long as they fear me’ morphing to ‘let them fear me so long as they obey me’. Tiberius lasted a bit longer but was poisoned by his own family.

today it's just the horse's ass!

Although I doubt his horse had many thoughts of revenge.

Caligula named Incitatus because he gave him better advice than the average senator. Which would be true today.
