Baerbock kanzels the meeting
Accidental Renaissance
AccidentalRenaissance is for photos that look like Renaissance paintings.
This means that they look like Renaissance art in their composition, their coloring, their saturation, the angle of the scene, the types of settings, etc.
๐ Must be a photo. Not a meme, drawing, art, ai-generated or ai-enhanced image, screenshot, low-effort post, meta posts, video, or anything else but a photo.
๐ Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content. Absolutely no pornography, even if it's "tasteful".
๐ Comments must be civil. No slurs of any kind or using words to insult, demean, harass, or abuse other individuals or groups.
๐ The Renaissance part (not the photo itself) must be accidental to the photograph. In other words, no photos of Renaissance fairs, people dressed in medieval/Renaissance clothes, etc.
๐ NO influencer selfies, professional photoshoots with watermarks, any type of OnlyFans-like content. We are not the place to work your side-hustle.
๐ธ If you know who the photographer is, give them credit in the comment section. This is the only type of self-promotion we allow.
๐ฉโ๐ฆฏ Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone.

"No, I'm not going to pull your finger again!"
"OMG, is that real cashmere?!"
What's that red dot?
Why is he trying to touch her? Hands off.
Right? Use your words, dude.
You've got a bug on you
absolutely, esp. with the gender angle - men's spatial autonomy obviously matters too, but the people who most often violate women's autonomy are ... men :-/
If I were a man I would try to be especially careful about not touching women like this (and to be fair, I'm sure lots of men feel this way - it's not fun to be labelled or viewed as a predator, and I'm sure lots of men adjust their behavior accordingly).
You derive a lot of information from a single picture.
sorry, I'm not following - I don't think I derived much from the picture, other than maybe that it's a man reaching to touch a woman to grab her attention. Beyond that there is the understanding / interpretation of the man as being a particular man, i.e. Olaf Scholz, and likewise that the woman is Annalena Baerbock, but that context is provided by the title more than the photo.
The norms about when it is acceptable to touch people, the way gender alters those dynamics, and so on doesn't derive from the photo at all, it's the other way around - interpretation being applied to the photo.
So are you saying I assume too much, that I am lacking context to muse about gender norms like this, or something else?
I don't think any of us have sufficient context from this picture to derive any intent.
The only intent I derive from the photo is that he's trying to get her attention. Do you think the photo provides sufficient context to say he's trying to get her attention?
Greens quitting the coalition be like
Liberals left the coalition after their stuntman was kicked. Greens are still in the minority coalition.
For the joke: yeah, kinda. especially with left and right.
