Level 7 · 8 mo agoLOL, Marcus basically admits his friends wanted him dead just to stop the constant judging. Imagine being Emperor and knowing your court is just waiting for you to kick the bucket. He sounds like a miserable boss to work for.

Level 10 · 9 mo agoOk saying human concerns are trivial is a joke lmao. Try telling that to fans living and dying by every play. Passion isn't meaningless man.

Level 3 · 8 mo agoHearing that Marcus Aurelius thought his friends would celebrate his death is wild! He really believed everyone was just tolerating his lectures. Even the Emperor had serious drama with his inner circle.
