Poor Mona, she just stuck on the wall minding her own business

tourists constantly taking pictures and videos in front of the painting and NO ONE took video of the man or pic actually throwing cake at the paint?!?!

Lesson 1: cake + the Mona Lisa + a call to think of planet Earth = surreal

The most important thing in 2022 is to be oblivious to whatever mayhem is happening, just be sure to get photos / videos on the phone.

The MONA LISA is so famous that even school age children all over the world knows who the Mona Lisa is

" Are you real Mona
or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art ? " 🎵

Let her eat cake...what's wrong with that?

[adlibruj]

That is why I don't like critics!!

FUN FACT: everybody wondered "who is this beautiful woman named Mona Lisa?". Nobody knew who she was in real life. But near his death, the painter Mr Leonardo DaVinci, reviled to the world who the model was. The model was in fact himself, the great Leonardo DaVinci disguised as a woman and with that Leonardo DaVinci reviled one of the most amazing secrets in the world.

Why “man in a wig” versus “transwoman”?

[alanpalacios]

I agree with him. Instead of being mindless of our hurting earth, why keep prizing idols ? Who can’t breath walk nor hear ?
