CAIUS TREBONIUS AND MARK ANTONY, MARCH 15th
The Hetairia of Cassius, Luciano Canfora
Cic. Phil. 2
(taps mic) so as we all know, conspiracy is a kind of seduction, and actions not taken can be just as loud as the ones that are. so. uh. fellas! hey fellas. heyyyyyy.
like, I was looking at the Dolabella-Caesar-Antony mess yesterday, but something really fun and vicious happened here and I will be rotating it around in my head at maximum volume for the foreseeable future
the red panels are the Assassination of Julius Caesar by Vincenzo Camuccini (the pen and ink drawing, not the painting)

sooo after getting two rose candles and a eucalyptus candle (the least interesting part of the series), i FINALLY got one of the fish tanks from the mga make it mini series, specifically the angelfish! got a lot of air bubbles even with tapping like the instructions said and getting rid of the ones i immediately saw with a toothpick, buuut i think that it's fine since it's y'know, supposed to be water. anyway its very cute! i've taken a liking to getting miniatures for my ocs since the first mga make it mini i picked up, and i really do find the aquarium specific ones the cutest, so here's hoping we can get more cute pets and decorations for my ocs! snacks for scrabble. sorry i mean snacks for scrabble. sorry i m

I saw a post the other day that kinda pushed back on the way all coming of age movies are about sexuality and all high school stories basically center around who wants to fuck who and how that's like. Not really all coming of age and high school stories should offer since you know. Youth isn't about who you have a crush on and probably coming of age stories in particular should be far more diverse in subject matter than they are.
Honestly as someone who, when I was 'coming of age' age, hated coming of age stories and still do for the exact reason listed above (see the weird scene in It where we all sexualize a 13 year old girl because boys have crushes and surely there's no other way to portray this than feeling a child up with a camera to demonstrate boys have ~feelings~ Bev gets no equivalent scene because she's the object of affection rather than the subject feeling desire) I also wish there was diversity in those stories. And coming of age stories about adults- we don't stop going through huge life moments that change everything forever, but back to kids. When I was a kid I could have desperately used a coming of age story where the character has a sick and dying parent who does die by the end of the story and what happens after that. Granted I did just fine without it, but even without being asexual it's always irked me that coming of age stories don't seem to appreciate that kids have way larger problems and way better stories to tell then first crushes and first kisses for shit sake give kids who went through what I did as a kid some kind of story about what happens when your parent gets cancer and how complicated that is and stop assuming the biggest thing that happens around puberty is discovering sexuality that, if you were queer, you probably already noticed what you felt wasn't in a coming of age story anyway.

I love wjh so much. Its like All I Think About very few things are capable of consuming me for this long (i think ive already had wjh last longer to me than Actual Canon Amphibia)
But as much as i love wjh, i love all the people ive been able to meet through it even more. Its so crazy to think that so many tiny decisions led up to this point and any number of them could just have easily gone another way. Im so glad i met and can talk to you and to Mal and to all the guys on the server and to len who id dint meet thru it but we can talk about it and make jokes and they met all the people i met too and just. Man i love all u guys so much fr fr
