Nude in a Hammock in White Carrara marble by Antonio Frilli. How on earth does the physics work here with all that weight in the middle!
Hard to tell from the crop, but if the arm is touching the ground that’s a third support pillar.

Every health and safety expert who isn’t the Chamber of Commerce hoping for longer shopping hours agrees that permenant Standard Time would be superior and that permenant DST would be, in fact, deadly.
Also we did permenant DST and hated it. We just hated it so much we abolished it immediately and promptly forgot we ever tried it.

And she’s actively trying to give it all away and she’s doing it faster than other “philanthropists.” She didn’t start a foundation which will hoard most of it and give a tiny (legal minimum) away each year but is instead makimg direct gifts. She also isn’t giving small gifts to small organizations to help them grow, she’s making big gifts to big orgs that can handle the money.
And despite all of this is continues to grow too rapidly.

I’ve started throwing out socks I bought 4-5 months ago for developing holes. Same brand I’ve been buying for 15+ years and used to be able to go 18-24 months before needing replacements.

Many of us Americans are working on it. Meanwhile, it took the EU 14 years to begin to punish Hungary for Orban. The Serbs have been protesting for more than a year and still have yet to lead to lasting change. I could go on.
I know this is going to sound like a lazy American trying to do whataboutism, but I’m really just trying to say political change takes time and part of the danger of all of these leaders is how unresponsive they are and difficult they make it to change—especially the more powerful the state aparatus for violence they wield is.
Additionally, the US has regularly scheduled elections which makes just marginally harder to change governments unlike a ministerial system where snap elections can be called.
