I'm trying to see how many images of Loki and Vesuvius tumblr will delete because they don't meet its community guidelines (yes they actually did that)

Loki is in Pompeii at the time Vesuvius exploded in 79 AD.

In this GIF* the buildings and the paved street match with Ancient Roman architecture (Pompeii was a Roman city).

More importantly, the speed and density of the cloud rolling toward Loki is distinctly characteristic of a volcano’s pyroclastic flow.

The pyroclastic flow is a fall of superheated air and dust that would burn a human to death in seconds. So much of that dust settled over Pompeii that the entire town was completely buried for almost 2,000 years.

Maybe someone else has already pointed this out, but I figured I’d share.

Pompeii

Mount Vesuvius, a volcano near the Bay of Naples in Italy, has erupted more than 50 times. Its most famous eruption took place in the year

why does this have 32k notes? it’s just a picture of a knife in a ranch bottle, is there some unspoken joke that 32 thousand people share? what is going on here, i dont get it. it’s just a fucking picture of a knife in a ranch bottle. is there some spiritual connection people have to this picture? is there some ominous and mystical reasoning that this has 32 thousand notes? do people reblog this because it makes them look like some indie blogger? or is there just something funny to this? someone please explain

So I know the ides of March is like the 15th but are there other Latin terms for different sections of the month we don’t use cause Caesar wasn’t murdered on them

Reblogging this so I’ll have access to it when my boyfriend gets farther into his Roman history class so I can send him ridiculously specific memes that match with the topics in the class

i love when professors try to use modern slang to relate to students. my professor referred to the theater of pompey as “the place where caesar got vibe checked by a bunch of senators” and i lost it.
