Homophobic incitement aside, we are, after all, talking about a 74 year old head of state who called the Milanese police to release an 18 year old belly dancer - by lying to them about who her father was - who had sex with his bronzer-stained robot corpse body when she was 17. Remember, this is technically a functional nation that hypothetically chooses its leaders in free elections.
In a nice posthuman touch, Silvio needs injections to get it up these days, so you can extend "bronzer stained" to include that.

ReplyDeleteOne day, an implanted "biotick" will do the work of all those bronzed stiffening injections. And then hell really begins.
Anon: thanks for the reference, didn't know Vecchio, and because of recent looking at Leopardi, I've been thinking about sickness and what it gives to thought. Hypochondria as melancholic motor of speculation...
