“Help us @ernest , you’re our only hope”

Far fewer, not systematically; mostly unnaturalized immigrants and those with connections to the Italian government. Many of them were released before the war’s end. But yes.

Explanation: Romans, unlike some Greek sources, did not find a small penis to be attractive - but an overly large penis was considered comical and barbaric. I suppose the “I’m perfectly average!” was the real mating call of the Roman man.

Also, going down on a woman was considered emasculating. Nonetheless; it was acknowledged as often happening (and used as an insult), and male prostitutes are recorded advertising their prices for cunnilingus.

TERF island is at it again, huh?

Oh yeah, Israel was instrumental in Hamas’s rise and sustainment. It’s just that Hamas would never have gotten the opening if Fatah didn’t become either hilariously or sickeningly corrupt, depending on whether you feel like laughing or crying at the absurdism of the world at the given moment.

And now Israel is trying to genocide Palestinians while blaming their own tool, Hamas. What a fucking shitshow.

Every source I’ve seen refers to it as a tricycle. I don’t know what the additional two wheels are for, but they aren’t touching the ground in the pic, so I’m inclined to keep the original description.

Third wheel is in the back.

How is that a response to what I said?

Probably has something to do with Hamas being a bunch of institutionally anti-democratic Islamist shitheads who took power from Fatah, an actual left-wing and secular and at least nominally pro-egalitarian organization, because Fatah was corrupt - only for Hamas to prove themselves as corrupt as Fatah ever was.

But sure, let’s celebrate Hamas and their imposition of women wearing hijab in public and forbidding them to leave without guardians, or the brutal murder of LGBT folk trying to flee, or the complete dismantling of democratic infrastructure in Gaza.

Hamas are fucking shitheads. It’s just that Hamas being shitheads doesn’t justify Israel’s ongoing attempt at genocide.

Very brave people.

No, Kbin is having some federation issues, it would seem.

Thanks! Looking from my alt account I’ve been intermittently having the same problem. I think it’s on Kbin’s end, unfortunately.

Don’t worry, I’m sure they were all secret CIA agents /s

Hey now, as Churchill once said, we Americans ALWAYS do the right thing!

… after we’ve tried everything else first.

Explanation: The survivors of the Roman defeat at Cannae were shamed by having been crushed by a numerically inferior force and bringing the outcome of the entire Second Punic War in question in one disgraceful stroke. It wasn’t really their fault, but the shaken Roman Republic desired some scapegoats, and “These guys who survived because they were in the camp didn’t fight hard, like REAL Rough Romans!” was an easy one. As such, the survivors of Cannae were sent to garrison duty in Sicily - tedious and hardly glorious! They were forbidden from returning to Italy until the war was over - the great Roman general Scipio Africanus took these defeated men with him on his expeditions against Carthage, and returned them their honor by decisively ending the war on Carthaginian soil.

Weird. It still shows up incognito on mine. I’ll see if I can fiddle with it.

Try clicking on it. We’ve been having some federation issues.
