I’m not sure I know what a “horn whooping” sounds like, but I promise I’ll get the hell outta here if I hear a loud alarm of any sort.

A history of 1930s Germany also works pretty well for this purpose.

RFK Jr. is so terrible one trending topic can’t contain him.

Men: I don’t see how that can be the Virgin Mary since I can’t even find her head.

The new statue of the Madonna at Santa Teresa di Gallura is an "abstract of Mary's form" 👀

A diamond shaped statue with an oval at the top, said to represent the Virgin Mary - presumable her head poking out of the gown and her arms out to the side - but also it looks a lot like labia and a clitoris.

That was my immediate reaction too, but then I noticed that the next tab down (Following) doesn’t interrupt the feed with annoying Reels carousels. I think it might be a worthwhile bargain.
