I got. thoughts. about valens and voices in imperial roman history. but I also got a lot of thoughts about uhhhhhh choosing your brother for co ruling the Fratricide Foundation Story Empire. many thoughts about themistius' oration too
Brotherly Love, Themistius (trans. Peter Heather & David Moncur)

#it's also the Incest-Cannibalism Empire but that's a discussion for a different blog#all of the heavy hitters were Incest Empires btw. that's a feature of Empire across all of time. not always Cannibalism tho. TRAGIC.#but rome specifically being the Fratricide&Stuprum Empire is funny AND makes parts of this speech feel. uh. UHHHHH.#feels like you're trying to overwrite history and while you succeeded ONCE the uncle-nephew antagonism with a body count#somehow feels worse????? feels worse. i dont like anything that happened to valentinian 2#anyway. as a result: i personally will be including the bigamy accusations against valentinian into my belief system#stuprum babyyyyy! a requirement for every emperor! valens is lacking here so valentinian has to pick up the slack#valens will be giving me an opening to fire shots at figures in christianity i dislike which is honestly better than scandalous sex#later roman empire tag#komiks tag#brother emperors tag#IF. you missed my brother emperors posting. the head in hands thing here is meant to be a little bit offputting on account of#valentinian being valens' imperial maker. that's a life in your hands. overtures of fratricide. etc. you get the point#whatever other subtext you want to apply to it from the subtext spice cabinet. im not picky. this was a quick comic i did#to shake off the depression cobwebs lmao. eventually i'll style guide this era and do comics with more intentional thought later

the urge to write a jegulily fic set in a fantasy world inspired by 15th century renaissance era italy and the roman catholic papacy
#sorry im in a bit of a fantasy era#and i’ve always been a history nerd#but#imagine like if the grishaverse was roman catholic#these are kinda the vibes i’m imagining#with lots of world building and royalty and a scandalous papacy#and add polyamorous wizards#of course#jegulily

I'm gonna pivot but as a former Henry Danger ride or die everyone it trends on Tiktok an angel grows a wing, the sky splits open and rain becomes non-existent.
My acne clears up, my brain gets lighter.
I am at peace.
#TikTok#henry danger#henry danger memes#that show is my roman empire#i fear i cannot go back#for it forsaketh me#i had Hollywood level scandals at the age of 12#this prepped me to be a fangirl today#i was a shipper in fact#i say that with tears all over my face

It's weird that Kendall resorts to 'I'm the oldest boy' in the end, because all his life he did his best to deserve the thing/s handed to him. He studied business. He worked his whole life at waystar to build experience. And to be fair to him, when he's not trying to get at Logan he is actually good at his job. We don't actually see him mess up even once on his own. He lands the deal with lawrence yee, he fixes Logan's debt, he tries to clean up the cruises mess. As far as efficiency goes he did deserve it more than Shiv or Roman or Tom. Shiv is only good with the things she knows about - optics, internal politics etc and she messes up multiple times. Roman just goes with his instinct and succeeds on sheer luck - until he doesn't. Tom gets it not because he's good but because he's a good puppet. But Kendall has studied and worked for it - and if anyone within the family deserves it on principle it's him. I feel like even Shiv and Roman knew that to be true which is why they agreed to vote for him at first. But he goes completely out of line with I'm the eldest boy and ruins the argument for himself.
#i feel like logan too succeded in the roman way#ran into money early on invested and kept making good decisions on instinct - till he didnt#lbr the debt and the cruises scandal is what ruined waystar and both ar logans fault#anyway#succession#tina rambles#kendall roy

now he doesn't show up at work even when he has to? whyyy?? 😭😭
He didn't have to.
I've read and seen complaints everywhere, but his schedule is public until Summerslam. He was not advertised for this SD. He's still the face of the company, thats his storyline, ofc they would have put him on the screen no matter what. Im sorry for you An and everyone who was excepting him (I would like to see him 24/7 honestly) but this time they didn't lie to anyone.
Here, his schedule🫴🏽

revisiting crassus, clodius, and the bona dea scandal! but this time with a new composition and a limited color palette
originally when I drew the first version of this idea, it was back when I thought that crassus would be a week long fixation at most (lmao), and instead he just. took up permanent residence in my mind. it seemed like a fun thing to go back to an earlier idea and see what changed now that I've spent a lot more time with everyone involved in this era!
also the way these two interlocked politically. I am. biting into it.
The Defeat of Rome: Crassus, Carrhae and the Invasion of the East, Gareth C. Sampson
Crassus: the First Tycoon, Peter Stothard
Crassus: A Political Biography, B. A. Marshall
Crassus, Clodius, and Curio in the Year 59 B.C., Robert J Rowland, Jr.
bsky ⭐ pixiv ⭐ pillowfort ⭐ cohost
#for example. i even know who catulus and caelius are now. i did Not know who the fuck they were when i drew the original one#now im like. wow. those sure were some allegations. goddamn#i forgot that ive drawn crassus and clodius fucking before. i'll revisit that someday. ANYWAY. time for some organizational tags#marcus licinius crassus#publius clodius pulcher#roman republic tag#do i. have a tag for the bona dea scandal. i should#drawing tag#ALSO the first tycoon book. it's not a good reference point. i disagree with uhhh like a good third of it. BUT it is an EXTREMELY sexy#read. i would love an HBO show using this book as a point of inspiration. im not kidding. id watch it so fast#i was reading something that implied clodius role in the bona dea scandal was actually partially crassus' machinations#to undermine both caesar AND pompey. and once i finish digesting THAT thought. i will. draw a comic probably
