Proof of the indomitable human spirit.
Rules:
- Posts must inspire hope or highlight the beauty of existence
- Posts and comments harassing or antagonizing a real person will be removed
- Posts mentioning religious topics are allowed but religion should not be the main point of the post. E.g. “God’s beautiful world” is fine because of the “beautiful world” part, but “God loves you” isn’t because religion is the focal point
- Posts and comments judging group of people in negative way based on stereotype will be removed.
- No posts with toxic positivity. All human emotions are valid.
- Staight up doomer/doomer-trolling comments will be removed. Reasonable disscustion and asking for hope is fine.

Per me si va ne la città dolente, per me si va ne l’eterno dolore, per me si va tra la perduta gente.
Through me you go into the hurting city, through me you go through eternal pain, through me you go within lost souls
This should be a disclaimer every time you connect to the internet lol
It might require some context because to me it makes no sense.
I mean I could twist it into meaning something if I start making some big assumptions, but I really don't understand what it means at all.
It's the text on the gate to hell in Dante's Divine Comedy
il qual s’aggira sempre in quell’aura sanza tempo tinta
whirling on forever in that air forever black
(said of the screams he hears within the gates. i love the flow of that translation)
