@flatpacksweden.bsky.social The discussion of various flavors of whoredom in early modern Sweden made me smile. Enjoy your well-deserved hiatus!

Regarding the Chicago pope, I hope he has a terrible midwestern accent. I hope Italians protest his pizza choices. I hope someone hands him a hot dog with ketchup and he throws it back at them

It’s funny how the worst/most discredited prizes are the most interesting!
