Just got back from a run (where the mosquitos swarmed me😭), and I gave into my temptation and did the first episode of Rule Britiannia and WOW that hit hard. (Spoilers past the break)
The idea that Samnium and Quintus were childhood friends just made my heart melt. Will I incorporate that heavily in the Rule Britannia fanfic? Yes. Will it be angsty? Probably.

A vigorous nation can survive a long period of revolutions and bad government, conditions to which the ancient world was only too well accustomed. But the two great races of antiquity were no longer vigorous.
The system of city-states is a forcing-house of genius, but terribly wasteful of the best elements in the population. From the fifth century B.C. onwards, war, massacre, and banishment steadily eliminated the most virile members of the Greek cities. Originally a very prolific race, as is proved by the extent of its colonisation, the Hellenic stock dwindled rapidly. The Spartiates became almost extinct. Polybius speaks of Greece generally as an empty country, and by the time of Plutarch large tracts of land were absolutely deserted. The decline was in quality as well as quantity; by the time of Cicero the Greeks had already ceased to be a handsome people. Complete racial exhaustion had practically destroyed the Hellenes before the period which we are considering.
The same blight began to attack Italy in the second century before Christ. The ravages of the Social War and the proscriptions only aggravated a disease which would have run its course without them, and which even peace and good government could not cure. Marcus Aurelius settled large bands of Marcomanni in Italy, a proceeding which would be inconceivable if tracts of good land had not been lying fallow. In the fourth century not only the country but the towns were almost deserted. Bologna, Modena, Piacenza, and many other cities in Northern Italy were largely in ruins. Samnium remained the desert which Sulla had left it; Apulia contained only sheep-walks and a few farm-slaves. Rome itself seems to have shrunk by more than one-half between Augustus and Septimius Severus. This decline, which was not caused by want, but mainly by a deficiency of births, received a sudden acceleration from the great plagues of the second and third centuries. In a healthy society the losses due to pestilence, like those due to war, are quickly made good by a spontaneous rise in the birthrate; but in the Roman empire the loss was probably permanent.
The exceptions to the universal depopulation are found, not in the Romanised provinces of Gaul and Spain, which seem to have dwindled, though less rapidly than Greece and Italy, but in the Semitic East. The Romans themselves spoke with wonder of the fertility of African and Egyptian women; but Egypt was very full under the Ptolemys, and the high birth-rate was probably balanced by a high death-rate. The regions where the numbers increased were, it seems, those inhabited by Jews and other Semites, and those colonised by Germans. The steady influx from these fertile races seemed at times to have stopped the decline, so that Tertullian and Aristides speak in exaggerated language of the great abundance of population. The multiplication of the Jews, in spite of frequent massacres, is one of the problems of history. Germans penetrated everywhere, and were not kept down by massacre; they probably formed a large proportion of the serfs who were beginning to take the place of rural slaves in many parts. The army was chiefly composed of them: the fact that the minimum height for the infantry was fixed, in 367, at 5 feet 7 inches, and 5 feet 10 inches for crack regiments, shows that recruits were no longer expected or desired from the Mediterranean races.
The general result of these changes was that in the third century the traditions and civilisation of Greece and Rome were guarded almost entirely by a population of alien origin. One curious difference was that while the old Romans were almost vegetarians, and temperate wine-drinkers, the new Romans lived by preference on beef, and swilled great quantities of beer.
-- William Ralph Inge, The philosophy of Plotinus

Samnite Bronze Helmet and Neckguard, C. 450 BC
This imposing helmet is a unique hybrid of the Samnite-Chalcidian type.
The Samnites were an Italic people living in Samnium (see Wikipedia article map, below) in south-central Italy who fought several wars with the Roman Republic. They formed a confederation, consisting of four tribes: the Hirpini, Caudini, Caraceni, and Pentri. They were allied with Rome against the Gauls in 354 BC, but later became enemies of the Romans and were soon involved in a series of three wars (343–341, 327–304, and 298–290 BC) against the Romans. Despite a spectacular victory over the Romans at the Battle of the Caudine Forks (321 BC), the Samnites were eventually subjugated.
What was known as a ‘Samnite Gladiator’ appeared in Rome shortly after the defeat of Samnium in the 4th century BC, apparently adopted from the victory celebrations of Rome’s allies in Campania. By arming low-status gladiators in the manner of a defeated foe, Romans mocked the Samnites and appropriated martial elements of their culture.

More Rule Britannia art which is 100% self indulgent 🙈
Five is looking at Sam like 'YOU'RE the one with the monster teeth!'
---
What we know about Quintus and Samnium:
- Quintus is an auxiliary. Meaning that they are not Roman, but still part of its army. Auxiliaries usually are recruited by the army - either by choice or occasionally by force - with the promise of becoming a roman citizen at the end of their service. Quin apparently ‘joined the auxiliary’ willingly.
- Quin and Sam ‘played on the beaches in dalmatia’ when they were kids, meaning they’ve been friends for a very long time. Sam calls them ‘Quintus’ and ‘Quinque’ meaning that one of them is going to be an affectionate nickname <3
- Sam seems ‘Roman’. He talks about how his dad is whilst in charge of the slaves. Maeve and others refer to him as a Roman. Quin could very easily be Croatian, but at the same time, the Romans moved around Europe A LOT.
- Combine all that with the fact that I REALLY wanted to draw Five with celtic paint and we have Celtic/Pictish Five sort of backstory 😅 my idea was basically they were 'rescued' by a Roman soldier and raised as a boy for the own protection. By the time they join the auxiliary, they've probably forgotten most of their heritage - their original name and their clan 😢 because I can't not include angst apparently.

“The weaker form of disjunction [of the recalcitrance of the terrain to control by the primitive instruments of communication at the disposal of the archaic state] was found throughout the empire, especially in mountainous highlands where geographic isolation was compounded by the presence of a well-developed economy of transhumant pastoralism as, for example, in Italy, Sicily and Sardinia. In this context Hobsbawm is surely correct to claim that it is the very fixity of peasant farmers which makes them so eminently exploitable. His corollary that any type of movement is in and of itself provokes an element of freedom congenial to banditry is more than adequately attested in antiquity. It is this movement that is critically important in regions of diminished Roman control. In addition to pastoral nomads, highland shepherds represented a social group that was integrated socially and economically into the wider imperial system and yet which, because of it economic organization, was freed from most political constraints. Hence the equation "shepherd equals bandit" comes close one that is true for all antiquity. Indeed, the very type of organization that characterized highland shepherd communities enabled them to constitute the driving force behind the three Sicilian uprisings, the largest slave uprisings documented in all ancient history.
The crime most frequently attributed to shepherd-bandits is that of rustling (abigeatus). It was so inextricably associated with bandits that it was not regarded as common theft (furtum) but a much more aggravated type of crime. Rustling therefore incurred the most severe penalties. The emperor Hadrian decreed to the provincial council of Baetica (southern Spain, where the problem was endemic) condemnation to the mines or execution was the normal penalty. But there were problems with such an absolute system of penalties since the bandits obviously had wide links with parts of society that were considered legitimate. Such links bound them to the powerful and wealthy in whose employment they were found. Consequently the law was compelled to recognize this wider power networks that encompassed bandit-shepherds, landowners and receivers in a regional market in animals and private protection.  An exception then had to be made in the case of those receivers who were none other than members of the landowning elite. If culpable middlemen were of higher social status (honestiores) they were only to be relegated (a lesser form of exile) or suffer loss of their status and/or property.
But attempts to control highland brigandage by these and other means brought no final long-term solution. By the fourth and fifth centuries A.D. the central government was driven to desperate measures in Italy itself in an attempt to control shepherd bandits in the southern regions of the peninsula: Lucania, Picenum, Samnium, Apulia and Calabria. It struck at the central natural advantage of the shepherds - their freedom of movement. Specifically the government sought to deny the use of horses to them. All persons "except senators and high-ranking imperial officials, administrators of provinces, veterans, decurions and others performing imperial service under arms" were denied the use or ownership of horses. Collaboration with landowners is explicitly recognized as part of this system of highland banditry since the domini are specifically warned against providing horses to potential bandits, in this case their own shepherds. Finally, in recognition of an almost congenital disposition to banditry in these highland zones, the state warned all persons, including the wealthy, against sloughing off unwanted children on shepherds, in the certainty that they too would be raised as future bandits.”    - Brent D. Shaw, “Bandits in the Roman Empire.” Past & Present. No. 105 (Nov., 1984), p. 29-30.

Here I am, completely obsessed with the Roman Adventure on the ZR app, and everyone’s talking about the Victorian one...
(Also, haven’t finished the last episode yet, we can still all die, so don’t spoil it for me please (tbh I wouldn’t even be mad if Cursor V died, that would be a bold move of the writers.))

why do files get 'loss'? does that still happen on an ssd?
i dont really know a lot about how computers work but from what i understand the mp3s move constantly through the wires and columns of the cpu. As it heats up from use, geolateral asphyxiation of the data and other microbes occurs, scraping off tiny particles, imperceptible to the human eye. We're talking molecules here. but it adds up, and over time, more and more mp3s are scraped and scattered, leading to clogging in the hard drive, potentially even clogging the ports in cases that are left alone too long.
you know how it always feel like no matter how much stuff you delete off your hard drive, you can never get the inside of the computer as clean as you feel like you should be able to? that's cause theres billions of tiny shreds of mp3s that are basically dead cells floating in the wires and tubes forever. do your self a favour and switch to FLAC asap if you dont want to have to buy a new computer in the next ten years.
also SSDs dont actually exist, thats just an ancient Samnium rumour, so dont think thatll get you out of this either, seriously. just get FLAC
