The image depicts a group of astronauts in a barren, grassy landscape under a clear sky. The foreground features a prominent astronaut in a green spacesuit with a large, reflective orange visor, carrying a gun in their right hand.

In the background, a fleet of astronauts, similarly dressed, follows in a line, also carrying guns. A futuristic spacecraft with a white and orange color scheme hovers in the sky, emitting a trail of smoke. The landscape is characterized by rolling hills and a vast expanse of grass, with a soft, warm color palette. The scene suggests a science fiction setting, possibly on another planet or a distant world.

S01E06: Radio Parolaccia
S01E06: Radio Parolaccia - In questa puntata raccontiamo una pagina di storia dei mass-media in Italia nota col nome di "Radio Parolaccia", parliamo con l'"editore al contrario" Marcello Baraghini che l'ha raccolta in un libro dei suoi "millelire" e ragioniamo sulla storia dei radicali, dei motivi che li hanno spinti ad affidare la colonna sonora della loro radio a Mozart, von Karajan e i Berliner Philharmoniker e di quelli che li hanno spinti a sostenere la legge del più forte in Palestina.
L'immagine mostra la copertina di un libro intitolato "SONO ASDRUBALE, CHIAMO DALL'ISOLA DI PASQUA" con il sottotitolo "DELURI QUOTIDIANI DEGLI ITALIANI A RADIO RADICALE". La copertina è di colore rosso con testo in bianco e nero. In alto a sinistra, c'è un riquadro che cita un articolo del "Corriere della Sera" del 18 gennaio 1994, che assolge Radio Radicale per le telefonate in diretta degli ascoltatori. In basso a sinistra, si legge "MILLELIRE STAMPA ALTERNATIVA" e un codice ISBN. A destra, un quadrato nero con il testo "SONO ASDRUBALE, CHIAMO DALL'ISOLA DI PASQUA" e "DELURI QUOTIDIANI DEGLI ITALIANI A RADIO RADICALE". Sotto, un quadrato bianco con una scala di frequenza radio e un cerchio nero con punti, simbolizzando un'antenna. In basso, "VOLUME" e "TUNING" sono scritti ai lati di un codice a barre.

The profile picture is a circular image featuring a cartoon character with a red flag and a black sheep. The text reads: "Hello, I am the intolerant left. I do not have to take your bigoted bullshit. I want you to have housing, food, education, and Healthcare because these are human rights. But that doesn't mean I have to listen to one word out of your useless bigot mouth while I work for that day." The text is presented in a straightforward, bold font, emphasizing the user's stance on social issues and their refusal to engage with bigotry.
