@hannah The irony being the meaning of #dante Divine Comedy is actually about love not hate, or more specifically it's an anti-Virgil anti-Aeneid anti-Roman poetry, says don't hate your enemies, forgive them like Achilles and Priam did in Homer's Iliad (Aeneid is a Roman rewrite of Iliad for spreading hate and violence). Virgil burns in hell because he lies and is incapable of love. Dante wants people to love and forgive each other. That's the point of the books not eternal punishment in hell

I consider mastodon a sort of natural preserve i got sent to because i spent too much time online in 2003 and my delicate organs cannot survive on the regular internet today

Seriously though i’m biased because i’m a fiber arts sicko but if you want to see a c. 1500 masterpiece in paris i highly recommend skipping the mona lisa and seeing the lady and the unicorn tapestries:- way less people- rabbits- you can get like 1 inch away if you want- dozens of rabbits- looks even better in person, instead of much worse- seriously they’re HUGE- moving visual disquisiton on the 5 senses plus bonus mysterious sixth sense- it has bunmy rabbits

It’s so exciting that the whole world now gets to experience instance admins repeatedly subtweeting each other on their respective shitty social media sites
