The Pope, Desperate To Avoid Ever Interacting With JD Vance Again, Went To The One Place The Vice President

Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️

Does anyone know how Saint -Just's name would have been pronounced?

I finally watched Un peuple et son roi, and they pronounced the "Just" as "Ju", which struck me as strange. French is my first language, and instinctively, I would have pronounced the "-st" part of his name too...

But this might be an older French pronunciation? Or maybe it would have depended on the region?

Your trauma is valid if it took you years to admit it was trauma in the first place.

There is a ship for everyone

THIS MADE ME GIGGLE TOO HARD THEY ARE TRULY YURI

last thing i googled: "antoine grec origine" because I was trying to understand the link between 'Antoine' and 'Florelle' and all sources that I could find were giving me the latin origins of 'Antoine', when I was trying to find the ancient greek ones 😔

It's because of this one portrait of Napoleon, I think?

Le général Bonaparte, also called Portrait inachevé de Bonaparte, by Jacques-Louis David (1798)

Someone admitted in my inbox that they liked, reblogged and saved that one image of this Saint-Just art I drew of him in his military uniform because he looks like young Napoleon and anon stares at the drawing and imagines it’s him. I dont know how to feel about this…

Louis Antoine Saint-Just, Arthur Rimbaud, Jean Samuel, and Ridan are the only 4 French men to have ever passed the vibe check 🤷

today in philosophy class

i love when philosophers and mathematicians argue ❤️❤️

the french republics summarized

First Republic: hundreds of angry lawyers with divergent political opinions stuck in the same room (it makes for amazing entertainment)

Second Republic: "President Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte"? Sounds perfectly safe to me!

Third Republic: WE FUCKING HATE THE GERMANS 😡

Fourth Republic:

Fifth Republic: Ah, finally a republic that is actually stable! ...wait a minute-

That's so fun! (I feel like I am super late to the party, but oh well)
