So the Priapae is a thing

luthi69:

Talking about the Priapus jokes, I can totally picture Lestat reciting some verses from the Priapeia to Louis. For example:

– “Simpler far to declare in our Latin, Lend me thy buttocks; What shall I say to thee else?”
– “Pierced with a foot-long pole thy skin shall be stretched in such fashion, Thou shalt be fain to believe ne’er had a wrinkle thine arse. ”
– “Such be the fruits that youth who owneth the flourishing fieldlet, Placed on the table of stone, naked Priapus! for thee. ”
– “This staff in robbers’ vitals deep shall plunge, Up to its bushy base and bag of balls. ”


– Oh, and there’s many many MANY more. 

^Well that was informative. Try memorizing these for hilariously better insults to hurl at your friends and family!

My temper is extraordinarily foul this day….approach with caution.

Don’t make me regret whatever horrible thing happens to you if you do.

Oh, my lord the harecatcher. So frightening, so intimidating. 

Bring it on, you piece of shit. 

I pity you….don’t ask me to elaborate.  *turns away and goes back to writing, ignoring you and your cry for attention*

Excellent. The feeling is mutual. 

Non, I don’t think the feeling is mutual….far from it.

I was always meant for something greater and I was going to obtain it one way or another. You provided the catalyst…descriptions of Paris and beyond, the spark that became a wildfire inside me. I had to go and I would have done so with or without you.

You, who attached yourself to the illiterate, ignorant but hopeful youth that I was. You, who disgraced your father and dashed all his hopes for you. You who clung to the shadow of greatness that was Mozart for mere scraps. You who dissolved your dark thoughts at the bottom of a bottle every night. You who languished in obscurity and petty jealousies.

I dragged you everywhere when I should have let you lay in that elaborate sarcophagus you’d already created for yourself long before we were ever really close, waiting to die….so that you’d earn your adoration after your early demise. “So sad, so beautiful, such a promising life cut short!”

And THAT is why I pity you…second fiddle! You are petty, jealous and malcontent with anything and everything you ever wanted! I was too much for you and when I tried lifting you towards greatness with me, you backhanded me with your “madness” that was an utter lie! You weren’t mad! You were only more fully yourself…..even more the pitiable soul and when I saw this, I knew there was to be no help for you on this Earth that I could provide to satisfy you, toxic creature!

Spare me the poisoned words that would drip from your lips in response. They are so much mist against my coat. The cold breath of an angry ghost against one whose mind is currently the father of Winter, of Death. You cannot hurt me any longer, even when I can spare you a memory.

Yet within six months he had dropped the movies for video cameras and must make his own films. All over New York he dragged Daniel, as he interviewed people on the nighttime streets. Armand had reels of himself reciting poetry in Italian or Latin, or merely staring with his arms folded, a gleaming white presence slipping in and out of focus in eternally dim bronze light.

Me to myself: So are we going to paint like this one day?

duendology asked: “Delfe, help me, help us! 😉 I’ve been trying to establish which parts of the France southern region (usually administratively now having different names) belonged to the historic “Auvergne”? Is there, perhaps a historic map with this region marked? So I could see this territory in its full historical context?”


First I’ve to confess I’m pretty
much ignorant of Southern France and Auvergne geography (even if I’m currently living “not-so-far” from there – shame on me), so I did learn a lot of things about the history of Auvergne.

Before speaking more specifically of
Auvergne, a “tiny” point; France has two important
administrative divisions: “région” (created in 1955) and “département” (created
in 1790). The 27 régions are subdivided into 101 départements (the

région of Auvergne, for
example, has 4 départements). Therefore, the number of régions is going to be
reduced to 18 in
2016, and Auvergne
will be merged with the

région of Rhône-Alpes. Lyon will most certainly become the administrative
center, so Clermont-Ferrand will lose its
official title of Auvergne’s
capital.

Now, back to the main topic!
Current Auvergne is basically a combination of historic Auvergne and the provinces of Bourbonnais and Velay. The name Auvergne come from gallic tribes of Arvernes, one of
the most famous and powerful confederation of Gaul.
I’m not going to trace the whole history of Auvergne
(I don’t want you to fall asleep and Wikipedia does that 1000 times better than me here anyway) but the “city of Arvernes”, in fact,
covers more or less the territory of 18th century Auvergne. With the Revolution, France is divided in départements, and the province of Auvergne
is split between Puy-de-Dome, Cantal, Haute-Loire and Allier in 1790. A entity similar of
historic Auvergne
is finally brought back in 1955 with the creation of administrative régions.
