Very pragmatic advice for anyone thinking about not casting a ballot.
So how do they make that?
This just raises more questions for me 🤦🏾♂️
what the FUCK
this is whats called a ‘coffer dam’, you basically build some walls, drop them in the water, tie them together, and then pump out the water from your new hole in the water so you can build while staying dry its oddly not that hard- the flippin ROMANS were able to do it with logs and mud
occasionally particularly devious people would use this to hide treasure or tombs underneath the river so its not only impossible to find but impossible to get to without an engineer division
that last part gives me ideas for campaigns
“Not that hard - the ROMANS were able to do it” - people seriously underestimate how advanced some ancient cultures were and the organized effort it takes to come up with something like this and actually implement it. The Romans had heated floors, glass windows and ceilings that could be rotated to reflect what you were eating (forests for game, sea landscapes for fish). Hell, the Greeks built cameras and moving robots. The Minoans, who lived four thousands years ago and were wiped out by a tsunami three times as powerful as the one which devasted Japan in 2011, had running water and modern toilets. And let’s not get into how China basically invented everything centuries before anyone else.
Bottom line: just because someone was already doing it thousands of years ago, doesn’t mean it’s not very difficult and an extraordinary feat of engineering.
someone: you build how many bridges on a single military campaign…?
Caesar: what, like it’s hard?
I hate English
English might seem complicated, but it can be understood through tough thorough thought, though.
Fuck you
what your favorite ancient roman says about you
caesar: you’re really into the military and political reform, or you just like the ablative absolute a little too much
antony: you are an actual human disaster
augustus: either you’re really artsy and love the roman aesthetic or the propaganda got to you
catullus: it’s impossible to tell what’s more of a mess, your love life or your maturity level
nero: you have some seriously bad taste
cato the elder: you are a cabbage farmer, or you just really, really hate carthage
cicero: you are too salty for your own good sometimes
vergil: you are either a gentle forest spirit or a rabid imperialist, no in-between
horace: you just wanna chill and have a nice drink, or you just really, really hate trees
hadrian: you should probably try studying ancient greece instead
julian the apostate: you read decline and fall of the roman empire and were all like hmm this reasoning for why the empire fell definitely still checks out. you have a vintage aesthetic tumblr and wonder if you were born in the wrong century
cincinnatus: the only thing you like more than saving the republic is farming. the only thing you like more than farming is farming in the nude
ovid: you got rich doing transformation commissions on furaffinity
sejanus: ok i don’t think there’s a single person whose actual favorite roman is sejanus but is it just me or was patrick stewart super hot as sejanus in i, claudius?????? i mean for real
aurelian: you listened to mike duncan’s the history of rome podcast and were convinced of aurelian’s high Value Over Replacement Emperor stat
diocletian: you try to micromanage every aspect of your life in order to fix the problems you see all around you and think that if everyone just did their job everything would work out. but nobody else gets it and you just watch while everything falls apart anyway
sulla: you’re like the diocletian person except you died before everything fell apart again so you’re smugger about it
marius: you know a lot about roman military history. you mention individually numbered legions in casual conversation as if that will mean anything to anyone ever. you saw a portrayal of republican roman soldiers in the iconic lorica segmentata of later rome and cried
trebonianus gallus: you’ve been to the met and seen that hilarious statue of him in “heroic nudity”
pliny the elder: your hobbies include natural history and being killed by a volcano
incitatus: you are a horse
julius nepos: you instinctively pick sides in arbitrary historical disputes and then fight to the death for them. you know the name of the current pretender to every abolished monarchy in europe. when somebody says the roman empire fell in 476 you go, “um, actually”, but in a way even more annoying than byzantine enthusiasts
justinian, alexios komnenos, [insert byzantine here]: ha ha, very clever
Imperial Ladies Edition:
Livia Augusta: You run a tight ship, and people think you’re kind of a bitch. Once you’re gone, though, everyone sees how bad things can really get without you running the show from behind the scenes.
Julia the Elder: Girls just want to have fun, am I right? The morality police (probably your dad) are constantly at your heels, but it’s a good thing you happen to like vacationing on secluded Mediterranean islands to get away from it all. At least it’s better than being around your mopey husband.
Agrippina the Elder: You lead a story-book life with a wonderful husband and beautiful family … until your conniving in-laws take it all away! You know it was them, especially that step-mother of yours, but you’ll fight them to the very end.
Agrippina the Younger: You’ve seen some shit in your day, so it’s no surprise that you are very much looking out for number 1. It’s what’s kept you alive. You do dote on your only son, giving him everything you possibly can, but he’s an ungrateful ass. He’ll probably have you killed eventually because he doesn’t know what’s good for him, but he’ll get his eventually. They always do when they mess with you.
Valeria Messalina: In a world full of political intrigue and backstabbing, all you really want is love, the passionate kind at that. Naturally you find yourself trapped in a loveless marriage to a drooler. Who can really blame you for having a side-piece or two? You run into some problems though when you and said side-piece try to take control of the empire for yourselves.
Claudia Octavia: You have a poker face like no other. It’s a hard-knock life for you, but somehow you maintain your poise in the thick of it all. Despite not being particularly outspoken, people find themselves naturally drawn to your side. Haters are gonna hate, though, and they’re gunning for you.
Poppaea Sabina: Your man will not commit, and you’re having none of it! He’s a total momma’s boy, and that current wife of his can’t please him like you can. They’ve both got to go. The thing is that even with them out of the way, your taste in men is the real issue. You’ll be better off finding someone new or you’ll just be a repeat of what he did to them.
Optime!
