honoring her hard work killing babies. This monstrosity is on top of a courthouse in NYC. It's a medusa with snake arms.

The statue is not specifically of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.


For the first time, a statue of a woman sits atop this Manhattan courthouse
At last, this work puts a female figure on a level plane with the traditional, patriarchal depictions of justice and power.
Written by Rossilynne Skena CulganFriday January 20 2023

Statues of nine men from history and religion perch atop the courthouse near Madison Square Park. Now, for the first time, the representation of a woman has joined their noble rooftop plinths.

"Havah…to breathe, air, life," an exhibition by artist Shahzia Sikander focusing on themes of justice, has brought stunning golden sculptures to Madison Square Park and the nearby courthouse at 27 Madison Avenue (officially called the Courthouse of the Appellate Division, First Department of the Supreme Court of the State of New York). The statues, unveiled this week, will be on view through June 4.

Adorning the nearby courthouse, “NOW,” an 8-foot-tall female figure resembles the park sculpture, but a lotus symbolizing wisdom replaces the hoop skirt. Her horns indicate sovereignty and autonomy. A delicate collar nods to the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who often wore detailed collars with her traditional black robe. The statue—the only woman represented—sits next to figures including Confucius, Justinian, Lycurgus, Moses and Zoroaster. At last, this work puts a female figure on a level plane with the traditional, patriarchal depictions of justice and power.

So they approved a statue of a girl with Ram's Horns and Snakes for arms to be put on a Court House.

Nothing Subliminal there at all.

DON’T BE TOO PROUD OF THIS TECHNOLOGICAL TERROR YOU’VE CONSTRUCTED. THE ABILITY TO DESTROY A PLANET IS INSIGNIFICANT NEXT TO THE POWER OF THE FORCE.

Buzzy was pretty challenged morally but I’m pretty sure she’d be offended by that.
