When my partner asked me that I didn't know it was a thing and stereotypically answered about once a day. I didn't get a chance to explain that it's an urbanism and critical geography thing in the same way that I think about the Catholic church at least once a day. You can't think about a history of Europe without thinking about Rome and the Christian schisms that resulted from it, and you need to think about a history of Europe to understand all the white people bullshit you're surrounded by.

I was in hiding back in those days. Because I do think about the roman empire a lot lol. But that's because I like historical materialism and the collapse of that demon slave empire is one of my favorite bedtime stories.

It wasn't because I was a chud. I hate the Romans

I remember someone asking me that on a call, and within the distance of my arm was a copy of Parenti's The Assassination of Julius Ceasar.

True. true to be honest. Totally true. I think to much about the USA ....oh my god

i live in the burger empire, how could i not think about it

I am always thinking about how much i hate Rome. Unless i'm thinking about my hatred for Uruk instead. Or my hatred of the linearbandkeramik treekillers.

I think about the Romans a lot, but I think about Egypt and the Ottomans too. I just like Mediterranean history. I was clearly a member of the Sea People in a past life.

Achaemenid Empire was pretty neat

In your defence, one of these is still around.

<- this emote but it's the Roman Legion

When i was asked about it i said basically never because why would i?

i had never heard of the thing but surely it depends right?
like if i'm playing rome total war or something then i think about it a lot obviously, but if i'm just doing whatever then basically never? unless i see an aqueduct or something, or it comes up in conversation?
very weird meme

I wrote three novels about byzantium 🤓

I thought of it yesterday when I got some change & I was like damn this quarter is light, real debasing the currency hours.

Someone should do an isekai anime where the entirety of the U.S. gets sent to Roman times and has to fight the romans

Burger empire? The phone game? Looks trashy.
