this was one of those comics where the script seemed funny to me until I started to figure out the dialogue placement on the page, and then it got melancholic.

like, sometimes a figure leaves a story in a way that lacks a body to bury, and your comic script starts to look like:

anyway, obsessed with the weird™ space that those who fought at philippi on the side of the republicans occupy after and the way that roman memory works. so the memory is being re written, but you’re still remembering.

‘… Be wise, strain the wine and cut back long hope,

into a small space. Even as we speak, envious time

flies past. Harvest the day and leave as little as possible

for tomorrow.’

(Horace, Odes 1.11)

The Might of Jove

Horace, Odes III.1.1-8 I hate the profane mob And I keep them at arm’s length. Hold your tongues: I, The Muses’ priest, sing songs Never heard before For maidens and for boys. The power of dreadful kings Is over their own throngs; Power over kings themselves Belongs to Jove, renowned For his triumph over the Giants, Moving all things with his eyebrow. Odi profanum volgus et arceo. Favete linguis: carmina non prius      audita Musarum sacerdos      virginibus puerisque canto.

Regum timendorum in proprios greges, reges in ipsos imperium est Iovis,      clari Giganteo triumpho,      cuncta supercilio moventis.

Jove Casts His Thunderbolts at the Rebellious Giants, Johann Michael Rottmayr, 1690-95

One cool person told me this would make a good meme template :)

(Here's the original idea)

POV: Your lifelong fantasy: spend all of your days on building your own robots to produce incomparably that will fight against each other on your own robot arena!!! OwO

You work day and night on your ambitious project.

Here comes the day where everything seems to be finished. Then... DAMN! Unfortunately, your robots don't feel like attacking each other. They stand motionless right where they were. Hmmm... maybe their sensors weren't wired properly? Or you set some weird condition to be satisfied first?

Wait... there's this switch you forgot to turn on. Yes! The whole robot-robot aggression mechanism is finally activated!

But - you've seated yourself between two robots, idiot!

___________

I've met some cool people that are into robots recently (:

(recollecting my own memories of playing with robots, too)

"Be wise, taste wines and adjusts your boundless hope to the cup of life, which is small. Even as we speak cruel time flees jealous. Harvest the present day, the morrow is uncertain. Seize the day. Carpe Diem Quam Minimum Credula Postero."

(Quintus Horatius Flaccus 65–8 b.C.)

Maecenas was Horatius' sugar daddy. Like here's a villa for your mental health honey, i love you and i don't want anything from you. However Horatius was clearly in love.

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk

does anyone have some books/sources recs about horatio? not just his works, but something about him, his life, analysis of his works and writing style and such.

i speak italian and english (and i can understand latin and ancient greek), but tbh i'll take every language and try to understand it lol (also, i started to learn spanish and took french in middle school, so i can read these languages even if i'm not able to actually speak them).

thanks to everyone in advance!! <3

Living for the chaos of Poggio and Niccoli’s friendship. One can’t leave Florence because he’s too fucking finicky and fussy to travel and the other is too distracted by the hot chicks with their pussy’s out to focus on manuscript hunting

#Poggio of course does go and successfully rediscover various manuscripts #but the sheer chaotic energy I get from reading about any interaction between Niccolo Niccoli and Poggio Bracciolini is hilarious #Poggio found stuff by Cicero and Vitruvius and Flaccus #the Big find of his career was Quintilian’s Institutio Oratoria #early modern history #early modern italy #Poggio Bracciolini #Niccolo Niccoli #history #early modern period #15th century

messalla deciding to be obsessed with cassius exclusively is both funny as fuck and relatable of him
