Il mondo non è banale? ░ Il linguaggio conveniente del Sublime Prefetto

¨ Sutta  (vedico: s ū tra; letteralmente: filo * ) del linguaggio conveniente del Sublime Prefetto ** Mia Nonna dello Zen così ha udito: una volta dimorava il Sublime Prefetto presso la Basilica di Sant’Antonio, nel codice catastale di Padua. E il Sublime così parlò: “Quattro caratteristiche, o mio bhikkh ū *** , dirigente dell’area del decreto di espulsione e dell’accoglienza e dirigente anche dell’area degli enti locali e delle cartelle esattoriali e dei fuochi d’artificio fatti come Buddho vuole ogni qualvolta che ad esempio si dica “cazzo di Buddha” o anche “alla madosca” o “gaudiosissimo pelo”, deve avere il linguaggio conveniente, non sconveniente, irreprensibile, incensurabile dagli intercettatori; quali quattro? Ecco, o mio dirigente che ha distrutto le macchie: un dirigente d’area parla proprio un linguaggio conveniente, non sconveniente, un linguaggio conforme alla Dottrina del Governo, non in contrasto con essa, un linguaggio gradevole, non sgradevole, un linguag

Press Release:
Manet, Hanneman, Mieris, Chardin, Michaelina Woutiers, Hans Heyerdahl, Rembrandt, they all painted young boys or putti blowing bubbles with a pipe or a straw. The bubbles often mingled with faded flowers or rotten fruit, cracked pottery, symbols of fame, snails, bugs, symbols of wealth, smoke. Occasionally the boys held the bubble in a sea shell, remnants of a once living creature. Tipped over glasses replaced the bubble here and there. In Jacques de Gheyn the Elder’s Vanitas Still Life from 1603 — an early homo bulla painting — different objects were floating in the bubble, or were reflected, such as a wheel of torture, a leper’s rattle, a broken glass, a flaming heart. Bubbles were considered entertainment in the 18th century, they were seen as spectacular, they still are, like everted eyeballs.
