Actual roman epitaph for a dog

I’ve seen this one doing the rounds a few times (and it makes me cry every time I see it), but was curious about the original Latin text, so I did some digging: it’s a shortened version of CIL 10, 00659, a tombstone from Salernum (modern Salerno, Italy). (source; CIL is the Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum).

Portaui lacrimis madidus te, nostra catella,

     Quod feci lustris laetior ante tribus.

Ergo mihi, Patrice, iam non dabis oscula mille

     Nec poteris collo grata cubare meo.

Tristis marmorea posui te sede merentem

     Et iunxi semper manib(us) ipse meis

Morib(us) argutis hominem simulare paratam,

     Perdidimus quales hei mihi delicias.

Tu, dulcis Patrice, nostras attingere mensas

    Consueras, gremio poscere blanda cibos,

Lambere tu calicem lingua rapiente solebas,

     Quem tibi saepe meae sustinuere manus,

Accipere et lassum cauda gaudente frequenter

And here’s my translation:

Wet with tears I have carried you, our little (female) dog, just as I did in happier times fifteen years earlier (lit. “three periods of five years).  For myself, Patrice, now you will not give me a thousand kisses nor will you be able to lie lovingly around/against my neck.  I have sorrowfully placed you, merit-worthy, in a marble tomb and I have joined you always to myself in death, as by your cleverness you matched a human.  Alas, we lost such pleasures for myself!  You, sweet Patrice, were accustomed to join us at our table, to beg charmingly for food (while sitting in our) laps.  You were in the habit of greedily licking our cups with your tongue, which my hands often held for you.  Frequently and joyfully (you) receive a weary one with your (wagging) tail...

tl;dr: this dog was named Patrice and was very, very loved.  (another translation with some glossing of the text.)

It's the fact she's joined to them in death, it's the fact that she sat in her owner's arms and ate their food. That he held the cups down for her to drink from....

Hundreds of years and we still know she was loved. We still know how she liked to sleep. All these years!! Loving dogs is the same!!!!

Shoutout to the fictional characters who live rent free in my head, paying for nothing but emotional damage.

[animelover20]

I have the most random headcannon about doflamingo but it's partly because of a song.

And that song is no other than my favourite sleep token song: Take me back to Eden.

I'm not going to explain why i attribute this song to doffy(im making another post for this already) nor why it slightly inspired this post(it's not the main point, just something fun i wanted to mention)

so anyway moving past that and onto my actual point of this post..

That man definitely has a thing for eyes.

HEAR ME OUT.

A lot of emotion is shown through one's eyes. This is actually part of the reason why I think that doflamingo never showing his eyes, is such an important detail. Even the few times we see him without his glasses (laws backstory, end of dressrosa.) we never see his eyes. Obviously excluding the one time we actually see his eyes (actually eye) which is his backstory. And technically being able to see the outline of his eyes through his glasses in certain frames.

Also this is really random but do yall know the meme where its like "im wearing glasses so they cant tell where im looking" that's him. That meme is just him.

Anyway back to my headcannon.

I feel like part of him has adapted to seeing emotion in other people's eyes. Like he can look at someone after they've told him something and know they're fuckin lying.

I also think a similar thing is true for his own eyes.

They have so much emotion behind them but little to no expression. This is also why half the time I'm writing him it's like, "But what if he had no glasses." Because I love the idea so fucking much. I also think his eyes would be GORGEOUS but in their own way.

Like just look at Cora's eyes. And how ironic would it be if the brother with the prettiest eyes is also the one who hides them.

Back to him having a thing for eyes tho.

I think he'd go a bit weak seeing the amount of love is visible in someone's eyes. (*cough* mine. *cough*) Like he'd subconsciously search for something, anything, that goes against what your saying and proves you're lying or trying to deceive him, but when there's nothing but adoration, he just crumbles.

It would be the most random or simple things that get him too. "Oh I saw this and thought of you *random trinket*" he's fucking dead and on the floor.

It's things he never really gave a fuck about. (and still doesn't) But the way your eyes are just looking up at him like that.. with something so insignificant and yet you thought of him so you deem it as important. Precious even.

Yep, those are the things that get him.

And I will die on this fucking hill.

Thanks for coming to my talk lmao. Just know I have this in mind when I'm writing him because I love him and this idea🥺

Hes such a little bitch(affectionate as fuck)❤️

A Captain’s Love

A fully colored digital comic of the Strawhats from One Piece.

The first page only contains a panel with the words "A Captain's Love.“

The second page shows Luffy and Nami holding hands and smiling at each other. Pictured underneath is a close-up of their interlinked hands and the gray silhouette of a person asking "So, are you guys dating?" Another panel shows Nami's reaction: an appalled expression on her face and "huh?" written in bold red letters.

The second page depicts Luffy sitting on Zoro's lap, happily eating meat while Zoro is drinking. Next to them is a gray silhouette again, asking: "isn't that weird?" At the bottom of the page is Zoro's reaction: an intimidating glare with "WHAT" spelled out in big red capital letters behind him.

The third page contains a drawing of Luffy and Usopp, sleeping on spread out blankets and pillows on the floor while cuddling. Again, the silhouette of a person is in the corner, remarking: "you know what people might think." Usopp's reaction in an extra panel is giving the person a deeply disapproving side-eye, asking "oh yeah...?"

The fourth page depicts Luffy tighly hugging Robin while lifting her in the air as both of them are grinning. The gray silhouette of a person is asking: "Are you really gonna let him act like that with your girlfriend?" Pictured underneath is Franky, deeply confused expression on his face, only responding with a bewildered "uhh...."

The last panel shows Luffy, grinning and holding his hat. The asexual and the aromantic flag are pictured behind him.

Some rando: You should think about stopping your prescription

Me: My pills make me not want to die tho

They: You shouldn’t want to die, that’s not normal

Me: Yeah that’s why I’m taking my pills

[teaboot]

Again: But you aren’t the *real* you when you’re on your pills

Me: I’m the alive version of me

[teaboot]

An actual doctor, once: “Relying On A Chemical Crutch For A Hormonal Imbalance Denies The Fortitude Of The Human Soul”

Me: Cool so like I’m agnostic

[inner-muse]

They: “But you might be on pills the rest of your life!”

Me: “So?”

[illnessisnteasy]

Good! That means that I have a “rest of” my life to continue living!

Thanks to the pills.

[erinptah-admin]

Meanwhile, no person ever: “You should think about giving up your insulin/antiretrovirals/beta blockers/anti-rejection drugs/prosthetic legs/daily multivitamin, because using those your whole life is bad for some reason”

[teaboot]

Oh no, they do that too.

[living-deciduously]

I have a kidney transplant. A woman once told me she didn’t believe in organ transplants and that people should just die when they’re meant to. 

[teaboot]

Sounds like a great set-up for a murder

People who are fully healthy, fit and neurotypical seem to think they are that way because they’re doing something right that the rest of us haven’t thought of, and not just because they got lucky

[gehayi]

Speaking of the luck of the non-disabled…I once terrorized a Karen who was using me to teach her entitled kid that disabled people are Other and should not be treated with respect. I told her (truthfully) that until I was twenty-eight, I wasn’t visibly disabled. Then a defective chromosome that I hadn’t known about kicked in. So my luck ran out. But until then, I had been normal–just…like…her. 

The sheer terror on her face as the concept of “You mean I’ve just been lucky so far?” seeped into her brain was a thing of beauty.

[ankoku-jin]

“You are one stroke of bad luck, common viral illness, or traumatic event away from being just like me” is honestly the most terrifying thing you can tell an abled person - and you should. I was healthy and fit and doing everything ‘right’ too - right up until some inner switch flipped and my body crumbled right out from under me.
