I’m sympathetic to odd things people do when really excited: sudden cartwheels, jumping up and down, going home and putting on pajamas and going to bed, what have you. I can say with certainty, however, that for no normal, decent person could that include “accidentally” giving *two* Nazi salutes.

Look everything’s on fire and all but my husband did note today that the current lineup of fools appointed is *no* way to run a dictator-coup situation. Bunch of idjits stuck in way above level of competence and again, it’s not just that they’re no philosopher kings, they’re not even good bad guys.

Joyous beauty! One of Klimt’s last works rediscovered, the portrait “Fräulein Lieser”, of a young woman from the Viennese high society (Jewish) Lieser family, the style (intense color, open brushstrokes) epitomizing the height of Klimt’s late period.
