Sui is missing, I wish I knew Simpsons quotes to the level required to find one for them. Something about getting owned after making the same mistake over and over.

crossposting from the GBS wrestling thread rndmnmbr posted:"I will be there, like I said, in the Coliseum! Not because I love you, Maximus, but because I hate Commodus! Not because I love Rome, or the people of Rome, but because I hate Commodus with a passion! What I am going to do is, I am going to give Commodus an extreme makeover! I am going to give him a two-fisted makeover! I’m going to lower his eyes! I’m going to widen his nose! I’m gonna fatten his lips, and I’m gonna realign his teeth! And then I’m gonna pull every hair out of his head! I’m gonna put my foot so far up his rear end in a top hat, he’ll have to go the valetudinaria to get it out!"

Flying to Toulouse in two days and then Italy a few days after that so I just wanted to re-ask if anyone has any good roman poo poo to visit? Also thanks to folks who told me Ostia Antica bc I wouldn’t have known about it and it seems like probably the closest place you can get to being roman without a time machine

At least in America we bake Roman motifs/references into like...everything? I'm amazed that somebody wouldn't think about Ancient Rome on a daily basis, it'd be like not thinking about food on a daily basis.

I'm amazed that somebody wouldn't think about Ancient Rome on a daily basis, it'd be like not thinking about food on a daily basis. It’s a “boys wear blue and girls wear pink“ sort of meme. I would assume anyone who really gets into that sort of toxic gendering isn’t much of a history buff in the first place.

Eh Sui is one of those overnight dynasties like the Jin that didn’t even really survive it’s founder. The real big missing piece there is the Northern&Southern Dynasties period which lasted two centuries.

Sui was a lot more impactful though. Jin dissolved back into competing states, whereas Sui was basically responsible for everything Tang gets credit for.
