@archeohistories Rome died with Marcus Aurelius and his foolish decision to pass the imperium on to his son. Pertinax was the last chance Rome had to return to the augustan principate.

@archeohistories Lots of mentions of it's "terrifying appearance" stroking fear into the enemy. Highly doubt warriors paid an instrument any attention when a guy with a sword is trying to stab you to death.

The appearance suggests more ritual/ votive purposes than any wartime utility.

@archeohistories Stop with the shitty ai imaging.

@sw_holocron I don't care what anyone says, the prequels were peak star wars. I'll fight you. Lucas should never have given the rights to Disney.

@RayD2489 @Brickctykid_108 @DB_Simplemente I highly doubt yamamuro had full creative control over any of super or daima. Tori has a bad habit of fucking up good animators. I would like to see yam with the keys and full creative control of the animation.

@admir_masic I read your study on CO2 cement earlier this week, I'm also interested in concrete, but from the Roman period. I have an idea how the Romans made their cement and why it is much more durable than modern concrete. Would love to discuss with you.

@Ricko276112801 @Dr_TheHistories So you can factually prove christ was born in year 1 of the common era? If not, it's bce.

[L.R. Thompson @Pertinx]

@Brickctykid_108 @DB_Simplemente It's because yamamuro needs to be given the keys. Don't get me wrong, I love toyotaro stories but his art is simply inferior to yamamuro.

Yeah, not a chance in hell. DeSantis or we're fucked.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, a Catholic, has climbed to the top position on Polymarket's prediction market to become the next President of the United States.

@RonDeSantis This nonsense has ruined college football. Government ruins literally everything it touches.

@BasedMikeLee @JaniceWill47400 It’s bread and circuses,

and decadence for the ruling class paid for by the working class and foreign lobbies.

If history teaches us anything, we know what comes next.

The young generation has so much energy. If they don’t build, they destroy.

So many whisperers of chaos are giving them reasons to destroy. So few are giving them reasons to build.

@Jeanie61Don @historyinmemes Now, you're still slaves to a king that hates you.

[L.R. Thompson @Pertinx]

@Jeanie61Don @historyinmemes Better than a king and no worse than what the monarchy did to your people. At least under Cromwell there was hope for liberty. Unfortunately, all wars have casualties. Without Cromwell, there would've been no American revolution. Y'all had the same opportunity and blew it.

[L.R. Thompson @Pertinx]

@Jeanie61Don @Tiger_Detective @historyinmemes I was referring to the English. Genius.

@XBOX wtf is this bullshit? Idaf about GTA. Don't let other people make decisions for you.

[GTA 6 Countdown ⏳ @GTAVI_Countdown]

Xbox has delayed Fable from fall 2026 to February 2027 to avoid launching too close to GTA 6 and to “have the dedicated moment it deserves.”

[L.R. Thompson @Pertinx]

@RonDeSantis The bill needs a more catchy name Governor!

[L.R. Thompson @Pertinx]

@ifat1styoudont1 @historyinmemes So you love the king?

[L.R. Thompson @Pertinx]

@Jeanie61Don @historyinmemes Ireland would be free right now had he not died. Instead, you now kneel to the very kings he tried to abolish.

Yeah, he killed a bunch of people, royalists. Do you love the crown that much?
