Listening again to the 'History of Rome' podcast by @mikeduncan.bsky.social . We would seem to be somewhere between the Little Boots (Caligula) and Domitian stage of the proceedings, with Congress is totally ignored,bizarre policies enacted. Hoping I'm wrong but the world looks very unsafe right now

It does all seem a bit Decline and Fall, doesn’t it? Clearly too much hubris and not enough memento mori.
Totally. And, btw, it was very good to see you yesterday, even though circumstances didn't allow a catch up.
It was good to see you too! Yes, apologies, I was running about trying to sort out DJ issues and book new accommodation as ours had fallen through that evening! All sorted though, and hope I get to see you soon and chat more.
