Suetonius adds that, according to some reports, he said in Greek: “Kai su, teknon” (which Shakespeare turned into the Latin “Et tu Brute?”). It literally means “You too, child,” but what Caesar may have intended by the words isn’t clear. Tempest cites “an important article” by James Russell (1980) “that has often been overlooked”. Russell points out that the words kai su often appear on curse tablets, and suggests that Caesar’s putative last words were not “the emotional parting declaration of a betrayed man to one he had treated like a son” but more along the lines of “See you in hell, punk.”

men have always been terrified of women with power, so no one should be surprised they’re willing to make shit up to get rid of one.

Sometimes, when dealing with the healthcare system (or indeed bureaucracies in general) you have to cry to get people to listen to you. However, there is a fine line to be struck between “This woman is crying, so she must genuinely need more assistance than we have given her” and “This is a hysterical woman, we can safely ignore her.” In this essay I will

now THIS is an excellent penguin

I know negative four things about hockey but I’d fistfight an entire canadian for this Penguin.

Also I want the physical mascot to be as delightfully wonky and cubist as this drawing.

I’m blown away by the response to this, and so is my daughter (she’s 12, and did this on her phone). I’ve had so many requests for it to be put on a T-shirt/sticker/mug that I created a Redbubble. Now you too can own the derpiest penguin! :D

I am DELIGHTED and I hope your daughter considers a career in illustration or graphic design because this is terrific work.

There are approximately three (3) types of responses to my chronic health posts:

Person one: Oh word, yep, me too, solidarity fist bump.

Second person: *sympathetic noises of general love and support*

Third person losing their absolute god damn mind because their doctor(s) never told them shit: wAiT IT’S A REAL THING?! I THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Fourth person who thinks they know better than you: Well, actually…

We don’t validate those people with attention.
