Bit of a strange evening for me tonight, as it seems I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do. So I sorted out my #woodelf Banner bearer, undercoated, my new #praetorian commander, and finally to end the night did the final cloth highlights on my #nightgoblins Squig Herders. #warhammer #nerdlings
I'm chopping the head off to add a 3d printed #Praetorian guard head to be my Commander. I've had another one of these for years, but I wanted to keep him for my Catachan army, so I bought this one to chop up. #modelling #40k #nerdlings #geeks #Hobby #warhammer
So finished the #Ratlings for my #Praetorian army. Now I can concentrate on my Idol of Gork army( or armies, after reading the book). #Warhammer #40k #middlehammer #nerdlings #geeks

๐ 1 Jan AD193 #Pertinax reluctantly accepted the imperial title after Commodusโ death. Born to a freed slave, he rose through the army & served in Britain, knowing frontier sites like #Trimontium. His reformist reign lasted just 3 months before the #Praetorian Guard killed him.
#RomanHistory
There are now more private #security guards in the US than high school teachers. Fears of #eattherich getting out of hand, I suppose.
In totally unrelated news, a lot of Roman Emperors were killed by their own #praetorian guards, often bribed by their rivals or spurred by their own ambitions.

I admire its purity

โ๏ธ CEO pleads guilty in $200 million fraud ๐จ
Praetorian Group Internationalโs CEO admits to wire fraud and money laundering linked to a large-scale Bitcoin Ponzi scheme against thousands.

The #police in DC seems happy to become a kind of #praetorian #guard for smallhands.
Their loyalty is not with the citizens, but with a Galigula or Nero who cant distinguish wrong from worse.
Will EU police copy paste this behavior as soon as a EU-fascist orders them to?
Whatโs wrong with them?
The #Romans said a violent goodbye to co-Emperors Pupienus & Balbinus #OTD 29th July AD238 - The year of the 6 #Emperors. They had never got on with each other & were having a row when the #Praetorian Guard grabbed, stripped, tortured & executed them. Gordian III succeeded them.
FUNERARY STELE OF O. CASSIUS VALENS, 50-100 CE. CAPITOLINE MUSEUMS Q(uintus) Cassius P(ubli) f(ilius) Gal(eria scil. tribu) / Valens, Pisis; / milit(avit) in coh(orte) IIII praetoria) / ann(is) XVIII, evocatus an(nis) II; / vix(it) ann(is) XXXX. Hic situs est; /monumentus (!) hic est. "Quintus Cassius Valens, son of Publius, registered with the Galeria tribe, originally from Pisa; he served for 18 years in the fourth Praetorian cohort and was recalled to service for 2 years; he lived 40 years. He is buried here and this is (his) tomb." The second half of the C1 CE was an interesting time to be a member of the elite Praetorian Guard, which as the main military presence in Rome exercised a good deal of political power and mostly used it to squeeze cash out of emperors and contenders alike. Valens might have had a front-row seat for the Pisonian conspiracy of 65 CE against Nero, the suppression of which won a donative of 500 denarii for each member of the Guard. Perhaps he survived the Year of the Four Emperors in 69 CE, in which the Guard withdrew its support from Galba when he reneged on a deal to pay 7500 denarii per Praetorian, with lethal results for Galba, though they ended up on the winning side by supporting Vespasian. Our man Valens might even have lived into the reign of Domitian to get a big annual pay rise.
#EpigraphyTuesday takes into the #CapitolineMuseums to find this #tombstone of a #Praetorian, found in the early C18 just outside Porta Pinciana. The #PraetorianGuard was, in the second half of the C1 CE, a good economic proposition, enough to tempt a veteran out of retirement. #AncientBluesky ๐บ

Keep thinking about how terrifying this movie was when it came out, but how infinitely scarier itโd be if it was remade in todayโs digital world. So many real world examples to throw in. #thenet #scaryandrealistic #cybersecurity #praetorian #gatekeeper #mozartsghost

So #Krasnov means "The Red One". Actually they got it wrong. It should be #Oranzhevov meaning "The Orange One". #Traitor #KBG #PutinsPuppet #Praetorian #Coup

#Social-media is no longer neutral.
The tech oligarchs are replacing other forms of leadership.
America has elected an #emperor with a #praetorian guard of #billionaire #tech owners.
#Generative #AI is not #objective.
You are starting to live as a character in #Trump's #dystopian novel.
"This is easily the most powerful the band have ever sounded on record."

โPraetorianismโ is a perfect description of the incoming Trump regime. Trump is dependent on & beholden to a powerful elite who tell him what to do, manoeuving around him to promote their own interests. He is a President In Name Only. #Praetorianism #Praetorian #PINO #PINOTrump #PresidentInNameOnly
