First, Italians gave us the Renaissance.They taught the world perspective, proportion, beauty, and how to turn ideas into immortality.Now they’re stapling tiny Trump flags with his little passport photo directly into dog shit.That’s growth. That’s evolution.No chants. No speeches. No debates. Just a silent European consensus that Donald Trump’s global legacy fits perfectly where everyone else wipes their shoes.This isn’t vandalism. It’s curation.This isn’t protest. It’s placement.Trump always wanted his name everywhere. On buildings. On flags. On history itself.Turns out his most accurate monument is biodegradable and smells exactly like his presidency.Europe didn’t even raise its voice. They just bent down, planted the flag, and walked away.Michelangelo had marble.They had dog poop.Both masterpieces.And…Fuck Trump!

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.

"Please get the truth out about our son."

Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti
Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti

“We are heartbroken but also very angry.

Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact.

I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed.

Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

@librarienne25.bsky.social while paging through the Victorian era slums section, I started explaining about sewerage. I asked if he knew what it was. He told me, “it all the poop and pee. And paper. And also Lego.”

@librarienne25.bsky.social paging through this with Sonele, only to realise the the Victorian era is not actually child-friendly… then or now.

@librarienne25.bsky.social I just read this delightful idiom I’ve never heard before: “busier than a moth in a mitten.” 😁

@librarienne25.bsky.social saw the second Wicked. Well… kind of. The set up of the tv and chairs is not optimal for my viewing. But I mostly saw it. I should watch them both again. I didn’t think it was bad-reviewable. Did you?
