if you're too young to remember skype, it was like discord, everybody used it and then microsoft bought it and ruined everything about it almost immediately and then everyone stopped using it bsky.app/profile/popb...

Final degree project word count:1004 words Fanfic I started yesterday: 2300 words. Can somebody please explain to me the logic in this??

How is it possible that the gardener, who started blowing leaves at nine in the morning, is still going at it now?? I'm seconds away from committing homicide...

I love the menu of this Egyptian restaurant.

Went to the Palatine Museum today where I got to watch a fully mad film about how Augustus invented the concept of Europe

This... I can not stress how important it is to know the truth. This is about playing with people's MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH. This is about refusing to accept that we all have different bodies. This needs to stop.

The Dead Romans Society - Fragments

What they are actually doing at Lumon: trying to find the verb in a Cicero sentence.

Just started Babel, and now I'm on the library translating latin text. Living the dream, I guess?

No sabía que Augusto se hubiera comprado una furgoneta.

Today on #BetwixtTheSheets, I am talking about the history of the BMI and fat phobia with the awesomely awesome Professor Amy Farrell. shows.acast.com/betwixt-the-...

My dog has an expert level in camouflage:

Being exhausted but happy at the end of the day is quite the feeling.😌

JAJAJAJAJAJA QUE AQUÍ EL PERSONAJE DE MATT DAMON TAMBIÉN SE PIERDE SOLO QUE ESTA VEZ NO VAN A BUSCARLO 🤣🤣🤣

ascanio sforza & juan borgia, minutes before disaster* *juan borgia turning up dead

Why do Hozier and Florence's songs describe such specific emotions in a way that makes your soul ache with every fucking song they write? (Guess wo has Girls against God stuck on her head again) 🫠

I just want someone who asks me to give them a hundred and a thousand kisses and who loves me and hates me at the same time. Is that too much to ask for??

Me every time someone asks me if I believe in true love:

Help, I can't stop laughing at these. #romanrepublic #incorrectromanquotes

I just listened to @k8lister.bsky.social new episode of betwix the sheets with @emmasouthon.bsky.social. And once again I reaffirm myself on the fact that Mark Antony offering Caesar a crown while naked will never stop being hilarious.

THE MURDER OF TROILOS (1/2)

I'm super-excited and oh-so-proud that Eirene Allen has written a book! "The Epic Women of Homer" is available now from the publisher, Pen and Sword (www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/The-Epic-Wom...), and all bookshops. Go get yourself a copy! #Ancientbluesky 🏺📚

You know who really understood the female gaze in gladiator films? Stanley Kubrick. Look how ludicrously teeny tiny those tunics are, how absolutely gratuitously miniscule Kirk Douglas's entire wardrobe is. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcIM...

Conveniently on time for #MosaicMonday 😉 #AncientBluesky🏺

I suddenly felt the same crippling fear as the first time I saw a letter on maths... I do not want greek Plautus! Thank you very much!

They look like Apollo and Dyonisus. 💚

Greek food is just the best. I will fight anyone on this fact.

Doy fe de que pocas cosas asustan tanto como hacer el árbol genealógico de los Julio-Claudios...

Literalmente todas, pero en especial: "Lady of the palace, sorry that I ask this, but there's something that I need to know..." Also: "This life is amazing when you live it with open arms" 👐

I finished the fic!!! archiveofourown.org/works/62296828

I started what was supposed to be a short fanfic, and now I find myself on page 22 and dreaming about the battle of Philippi. I think I might have a small problem... #writing #fanfic #romanrepublicstuff

My dog embodies the feeling of absolute disorientation that comes after taking a long nap.

The image of Agrippina the eldest stopping the soldiers from abandoning her husband and the war on Germania by being a complete badass leaves free rent on my mind.

Bad idea to listen to Epic, the musical again. I shall be singing done for and open arms non-stop for the rest of the week, and it's just Monday.

Just read Cicero's letter to Cassius on 45 b.C. and he's threatening Cassius with sending three letters an hour should he receive no answer. No one leaves Chickpea man on read.

Ah! the eternal classic student's damnation to constantly hyperfixiate in new subjects.

My new popular history book Fulvia: The Woman Who Broke All the Rules in Ancient Rome will be published in exactly 3 months! It's available to pre-order now 📚
