Yikes! I Knew Augustus Made Cleopatra Out To Be An Evil Homewrecker, But This Just Takes The Cake For

This is so sweet. 

Drypetis was such a soft girl; a little girl, with a wide coy smile hidden behind her hands and a tendency to stomp when she walked. She enjoyed the arts, and acted out small snippets of plays.

I remember once, she played at Ganymede and urged me to be Zeus. It was amusingly appropriate, given our age difference, and I made to spirit her away; as though she was the pale Trojan Prince. To my surprise, she instead took an ornamental sword and brandished it at me with relish, the hilt cracking against my left shoulder.

It seemed she had believed that the beautiful Ganymede had fought for his freedom here on Earth, rather than take the position as cup-bearer at Olympus itself.

It took the rest of the afternoon to explain to her that a cup-bearer to the gods was truly a sign of great status; but even when we parted after we ate, she still maintained that he would want to strike a golden eagle down; to show off such a magnificent bird with boyish charm.

(Really, the one with true boyish charm was her)

Fascinating insights about Floralia and Flora’s cult. 

The Floralia is a Roman festival honoring Flora, the goddess of spring, flower gardens, and crops. It was held each year from April 27th or 28th to May 3rd. She is married to Favonius, the God of the West Wind. Flora was one of the most important goddesses in the Roman pantheon, one of only 15 deities to have a cult administered by a state priesthood consisting of a married couple, who were appointed for life.

The celebration of the Floralia included theatrical performances, competitive games, and a sacrifice to Flora, presumably at her temple on the lower slope of the Aventine Hill near the Circus Maximus.

Manipulation: I 'healed' some of the fresco's more obvious flaws and added the floral border.

Bi people and genderfluid people being told to “pick a side”, or being told we can’t possibly understand ourselves. 

I’m bisexual and I’m feeling solidarity in this Chili’s tonight

You tell him Rose!

Jesse: whatever you say, slut

Rose: ouch, oooh, such an insult. Let me know when you come up with something creative to call me, you sack of poorly packaged horseshit

Fulvia

(c. 83 BCE-40 BCE) The first non-mythological woman to appear on Roman coins. She was married three times (Publius Clodius Pulcher, Gaius Scribonius Curio, Mark Antony) and actively involved in all her husband’s careers. She testified against the murderer of her first husband, and inherited several street gangs. She unsuccessfully plotted against Octavian in retaliation for divorcing her daughter Clodia. She was exiled to Greece and died. One of her sons by Mark Antony, Antyllus was executed after the Battle of Actium, while the other Jullus committed suicide after participating in a plot with Julia (the daughter of Augustus). 

She’s not as well known, due to being overshadowed by both Livia Drusilla and Cleopatra (who was also involved with Mark Antony). 

LOL. Atton is hilarious!

The Exile: Try not to kill anyone on accident. Atton: I’m not an idiot. I know how to kill people on purpose.

My patron goddess!

The real tragedy. 

julius caesar has been dead for 2063 years and they still havent made a movie that depicts him as the bisexual disaster he was

Just wanted to post that asexuals in general are awesome, valid, and LGBT+. There is nothing wrong with having no interest in sex. You’re just different, and it’s ok to be different.
