he really acts like a random 60yo uncle

the ending on hbo's silicon valley has turned from "meh" to "holy shit this aged like wine" in the span of a few years

unrelated to any recent events of course: the roman salute was originally brought back and introduced to fascist Italy (before the germans also adopted it) by Gabriele D'Annunzio,a fascist poet/journalist/playwright known for being always on coke and also MOST IMPORTANTLY because there is an urban legend that has been spread in Italy since forever about him surgically removing one of his ribs to suck his own dick

this is the kind of trivia you only get here on this channel when I am lying in bed half asleep

btw he was the one spreading a lot of these rumors, he also said that he "had eaten the meat of children", he used to make shit up just because journalists fell for it and talked about him without really fact checking anything

nothing changes cause it's all the same the one you get's the one you give away etc etc

posted this on twitter and people wanted more european trivia so i might as well crosspost here

here's another funny piece of trivia, also about italy (and the holy see, this is a weird one) but this time is specifically about laws regarding the church and freedom of speech

due to a series of laws that were passed then revised then left there etc it is still technically illegal in italy to specifically attack the "christian god of national religion"

in some regions it is, regardless, very common to hear epithets comparing him to a pig or a dog, but in theory (even tho this is basically never enforced) doing it in public could result in you being fined

the funniest thing is that despite all of this you not only people keep using the same 2-3 forms to insult God constantly BUT THIS IS ALSO VERY COMMONLY USED BY OLD GRANDMAS WHO GO TO CHURCH EVERY DAY because it just became a normal thing and there is not a lot of thought behind it

it is also NOT illegal to do the same with the Virgin Mary or the saints tho, and that is as common as that first instance too

the australian currency is made of plastic and partially transparent, it is super cool
