Moreover, Caesar was not satisfied to be overlooked at first by Sulla, who was busy with a multitude of proscriptions, but he came before the people as candidate for the priesthood, although he was not yet much more than a stripling. To this candidacy Sulla secretly opposed himself, and took measures to make Caesar fail in it, and when he was deliberating about putting him to death and some said there was no reason for killing a mere boy like him
Plutarch, Caesar
sulla's fight with caesar is extremely funny, but also very Something considering how much of sulla you see reflected in caesar's later actions. breaking news: grown man picks fight with teenager, more at 11.

May 15th, 2023 | Had a shitty night but felt productive this morning! The change of setting and good coffee did me good. Wrote half of the 'problematic' section of my article, hopefully I'll write the second half this afternoon.
Take care folks 🌻

If anyone knows if its still possible to play "Star Wars: Clone Wars: Republic Heroes" lemme know.
Turns out, we Clone Wars fans might be missing out on even more terminology and clone culture.
For example; there, in fact, a term (cited in SW:CW:RH) for those clones who do Technical Jobs--dubbed by Commander Cody himself.
They're known as "Soft-Shells".
Guess what, that means Tech, is a "Soft-Shell" trooper.

kantam and cohmac feeling the disturbance in the force with what's happening on starlight. all the terror and danger and devastation and sorrow, and they can't do anything about it. they just have to feel all that, know that something terrible is happening, is going to happen, and they just have to stay still and let is pass. i feel so ill.....

Beginner's doodle of Clone Trooper Reece, for @trixie2023 and any other Clone Simps out there.
The question is, did he learn side-eye from Jango Fett or Padme Amidala...?? 🤔🤔

ladies of the conspiracy
porcia and tertulla! I have some thoughts about their appearances in the scraps of the historical conspiracy that are visible (since it's like. the nature of conspiracy, even one as widely known and studied as the one leading up to the assassination of caesar, means that there's a gap in visibility with the details etc) that I'll have to try and pin down later, but for now, I think we should give them a dagger too
Brutus, the Noble Conspirator, Kathryn Tempest
Junia too, the niece of Cato, wife of Caius Cassius and sister of Marcus Brutus, died this year, the sixty-fourth after the battle of Philippi. Her will was the theme of much popular criticism, for, with her vast wealth, after having honourably mentioned almost every nobleman by name, she passed over the emperor. Tiberius took the omission graciously and did not forbid a panegyric before the Rostra with the other customary funeral honours. The busts of twenty most illustrious families were borne in the procession, with the names of Manlius, Quinctius, and others of equal rank. But Cassius and Brutus outshone them all, from the very fact that their likenesses were not to be seen.
Tacitus, Annals III.76

Relearning how to deal with my anxiety at nearly 34 goddamn years old because last time I had honest-to-god triggers, one was something stupidly specific that I basically never encountered unless I went looking for it (which I still did, like an idiot) and the other was more common but generally easier to deal with. Now it's Learning to Cope When You Get Triggered By Things You Can't Control hours here and I must say I am not enjoying it.
