Yes! It's cringe-brilliant when she interviews experts, but I'd take her over Ali G or Borat any day.
She just showed up in my recommended one day and has never left.
Horrid to look at and that voice.

Same. And life is just better.

"We just don't know"
History in a nutshell
“We know a lil bit, just never enough to fully make up our minds”
Most of history is just lies agreed upon
I mean…she’s not wrong
I’m ur 2 thousand’s like 😅
Well yea but she's obviously an art critic. Yes she knows a lot about aesthetics but to get the full historical picture, it's best to get a historian's opinion. Seems obvious but nowadays everything is so interdisciplinary.
Oh....... British people are really the best. Thank you so much to bring us so much joy, and laughters !
She said such weird sentences so calmly- I would be dying
Fr tho 😭
She sounded so stupid using baby talk. And saying 'he' doesn't have an anus was extra dumb. You don't see anyone's anus unless you spread those beautiful cheeks.
But hey. Maybe we also don’t have an anus. We just don’t know.
I feel like that's just part of being British.

I went on a tour in Italy and our guide told us they were hearts because it was a signature of some sort. Don’t know how true it is, but they’re definitely hearts which is a pretty cool fact!
okay for real, she is pointing out just how amazing and gorgeous that sculpture is, which just makes this even funnier

@@Z_hrioperation find the anus
Actually, I think it is. Excluding the anus is high indicator of dissonance in reality whether consciously or unconsciously
Why exclude the anus??
Either the original had an anus and the one today hasn't a recreated anus.
Or never there was an anus. But again... why?
Pupils, veins, muscle definition, definition of hair curl pattern but no anus?
Either the anus was too sacred for recreation or strictly shunned to the point of embarrassment.
When you're groomed that you predestined to procreate and your body autonomy is contingent on this practice
Unnatural Sexual repression is self hatred and the logical consequence of unnatural repression. This can lead to sexual confusion, social development issues, and higher probability of violent behaviors.
“carrying statue blood to his fingers” i think i’m in love with this woman 😭

You shouldn’t be so starry eyed impressed. She’s unaware of just King David was.
Statue blood would be carried away from his fingers. Those are veins, they carry blood back to the heart.
