    i’d like to rename this with ‘…out of our well’; and it seems even shame has its purposes. no waste in the divine plan…always so much under the surface…

    i just trust she has a good plan for after the scourge waving and wailing, and that her mother or a good friend, aunty, fairy godmother, guardian angel, maternal uncle, or group of such-like is on hand with her gown and some nice warm comfy down-time clothing.

    It’s been pointed out to me that people might be a little confused by the use of punctuation. Here’s the reason: Dani specifically wanted to separate the idea of the naked figures and that of the selling. So the semicolon has a Schrodinger’s Cat existence. The sentence can read:

    Naked female bodies selling sacks on a corner of via Nazionale in Rome, Italy.
    or
    Naked female bodies; selling sacks on a corner of via Nazionale in Rome, Italy.

    With love
    Amy

    Truth may be still having a bad reaction to Nevada; maybe?

    – I won short people, tall people. I won fat people, skinny people. I won highly educated, OK educated, and practically not educated at all. I won naked people, and clothed people, people with bags, and people with ties, and without (take note Right Hon PM David C. ), and I know how to sell stuff, etcetera, etcetera ad nauseum…(almost literally!).

    Sometimes a picture paints a thousand words; sometimes a word paints a thousand pictures…

    Thank you Matteo, and all the unseen helping hands…
    The world needs this word
    ‘Petaloso’ – ‘flower full of petals’

    The idea (prevalent) that language has intrinsic right and wrong forms that can/should/may be monitored and athorised by national elites through institutions, education or mannners is also interesting (and scientifically disproven)… but today…

    ‘petaloso’.
