Wikipedia suggests that this sense of the word 'dick' didn't exist in Shakespeare's time.

I don't doubt he'd approve though.

Depends on whether you want to use proper Italian or are looking to quote Shakespeare precisely.

My Folger edition has the spelling as "Signior."

It'd work!

Here's how I'd cast it:

Willard- Wolverine
PBR Crew- Take your pick of Wolverine's sidekicks
Kurtz- Magneto
Corman, Lucas, Moore- Merge into Professor X
Photojournalist- Deadpool

Old Soviet joke for today:

A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.

After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”

“I’m looking for the obituaries.”

“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”

“Not the one I’m looking for.”

Saint Paul Ward Four! YOU HAVE AN ELECTION TODAY. THAT'S RIGHT, TODAY. (It's a special election for a new City Council rep.)

Naomi Kritzer @naomikritzer.bsky.social · Aug 8

I wrote about Saint Paul's Ward 4 special election. tl;dr I would vote for Molly Coleman, despite some reservations.
