Walking around the roads of Florence's historic center.

@globalc haha 😂

James Brown Is Dead was followed shortly by its rebuttal James Brown Is Still Alive, by another Dutch electronic band.

The rap lyrics go:

James Brown's down
Who the funk do you think you're fooling?
For me the man's still ruling
Stop the nonsense
Stop telling lies
James Brown is still alive
James Brown is still alive

lolwut! 😂

This 1991 techno / house hit by Dutch group L.A. Style came back to my mind... and now I can't make it to go away! 😂

For lunch, I ordered a plate of "cardi", a vegetable similar to artichokes.

In Italy, the rainbow flag is mainly associated with peace (pace).

Rice puddings are a common type of breakfast pastry in Tuscany 😋

Wikipedia says it originated in Pistoia:

I took this picture at my favorite pasticceria near my mom's home. #Italy #Firenze 🇮🇹

Graffiti spotted under a railway bridge in Firenze:

La rosa che ti do è un bacio sulle labbra
un gesto d'amore che non conosce parole,
che dice tutto senza dire niente,
che ti fa sentire la mia presenza costante

Translation:

The rose I give you is a kiss on the lips
a gesture of love that knows no words,
that says everything without saying anything,
that makes you feel my constant presence

Might not be top poetry, but it's well above the literacy level of nearby graffiti... and sort of cute.

@benoit Ah, you're probably not in Paris 😂

@benoit Yes, just doing a quick layover on my way to Florence. Are you in Paris this week?

@bluelupo I liked the idea of using the blue accent color for the high-intensity text in Konsole, but it should be brighter to avoid confusing it with color 5.

@penguin42 On second thought, they weren't so beaten before. There seems to be some new damage.

The birds of Boca Chica Beach seem undisturbed.

Absence of visible evidence does not exclude damage to wildlife of any kind, but still a lot better than finding a beach covered in dead birds... right?

@penguin42 They got hit by a tornado of concrete chunks on the first test flight!

It's a miracle the entire site didn't blew up on that day.

Evil Morty is best Morty! 😂

#RickAndMorty S07E05 spoiler alert

This time, there are no concrete chunks all around the pad and no visible damage.

There were already workers on the tower, checking something on the ship's quick-disconnect arm.

The launchpad reopened on the same day.
