Sounds fairly accurate to how they responded in real life surprisingly.
Antony: oh my God, they killed Caesar!
Cleopatra: You bastards!!
I laughed at this more than I should.
Doctor: You literally have every STD
Antony: Gotta catch 'em all
This is very accurate.
assuming bi youth only experience marginalization and oppression when they’re in same gender relationships makes as much sense as assuming that gay people only experience marginalization and oppression when they’re in a relationship
it doesn’t
Nero ordering the death of her half-sister Claudia Octavia probably was the deciding factor for refusing to marry him. He also possibly suspected she had knowledge of the Pisonian Conspiracy of 65 C.E.
A statue depicting Claudia Antonia (30-66 CE), daughter of emperor Claudius and Aelia Paetia (adoptive sister of Sejanus).
I was actually surprised to discover that she lived that long - but then again Claudia’s descent made her a very attractive bright candidate for ambitious politicians. If Tacitus & co are to believed among the suitors were for example Cornelius Piso and emperor Nero. Latter also had her executed after Claudia refused emperor’s proposal.

Mary Shelley suddenly became a lot cooler than she already was.
hello! i’m sorry if you’ve been asked this before but do you think you could elaborate on mary shelley’s attraction to women? i’ve heard of people describing her as bisexual just in passing but i’ve never found a good explanation of it. once again, i’m very sorry if you have been asked this before!
I may have, so check the questions tag just in case!
But Mary Shelley was involved with Jane Williams after Percy Shelley’s death, a relationship/involvement. Mary often described her in terms of endearment and her sole delight. Everything kind of went to hell when she found out Jane had married Thomas Hogg and was talking about how Mary was cold towards Shelley, which is, if you ask me, a big, big asshole move.
She also had wlw friends and help a couple to forge passports so they could ran away together too.
Fascinating!
