[hortensius-deactivated20240909]

what if i started expanding the trials in the late roman republic

[trialsinthelateromanrepublic]

please

[trialsinthelateromanrepublic]

are you going to put any more tumblr users on trial. that was fun

i mean if anyone wants to be put on trial then maybe? it’s only fun if everyone involved is chill with it. i guess i could put myself on trial??? but i have also done nothing wrong in my life ever

[trialsinthelateromanrepublic]

no more trials! we've run out!

that's the end of the list (civil suits don't count because they didn't have a verdict in the same way)! i sure hope nothing important happened after 50 BCE that 'marked the end of normal functioning of Republican institutions, even if they had already begun to break down in the 50s.' thanks for engaging in the futile endeavour of trying to change history!

if you Do want to experience events after 50 BCE and watch marcus tullius cicero fail to escape the epistolary timeloop then subscribe to e-pistulae (@e-pistulae), where i post his letters dracula daily style. it’s 44 BCE! the second philippic oration is next week :-)
