Sin amor propio... Nunca entenderás al mundo más allá de un proceso autómata. ¡Vaya desgracia trágica! 🥺🥀🍂
Tal cómo la diva Wilde escribió en "El retrato de Dorián Gray":
¡Qué agradable era estar en el Jardín!
¡Y qué encantadoras las emociones ajenas! Mucho más encantadoras que sus ideas le parecían a él. -

BBC: alright, we'll prove that you *did incite* the terrorist actions on #Jan6 now that you're suing us claiming you didn't.
>Smacks of #OscarWilde foolishly challenging the accusation of homosexuality. The case bankrupt him, he died in exile in France.
Tr^mp "cannot now prevent Defendants from seeking records that would shed light on his true knowledge, intent, and state of mind in delivering his speech at the Ellipse," the defendants argued.

Back in the 90s I worked in a small bookstore in SF. The owner (who died in '95 or so) told a story of man he knew or knew of who seduced Lord Alfred Douglas in Douglas' old age because it was as close as one could get to being with #oscarwilde I developed a much greater interest in Wilde later, and wish I could remember who the heck boss was referring to.
Anyone here on the fedi know who this might have been? (It's very possible it was a friend of the boss, so...) -

Libro: "Mis amigos"
«Escojo mis amigos no por la piel u otro arquetipo cualquiera, y sí por la pupila, tiene que tener un brillo cuestionador y una tonalidad inquietante.
A mi no me interesan los buenos de espíritu ni los malos de hábitos.
Me quedo con aquellos que hacen de mí un loco y un santo.
De ellos no quiero respuesta, quiero mi opuesto. Que me traigan dudas y angustias y aguanten lo peor que hay en mí.
Para eso, sigo siendo loco, los quiero santos, para que no duden de las diferencias y pidan perdón por las injusticias.
Escojo mis amigos por la cara lavada y por el alma expuesta,
no quiero solo el hombro o el regazo, quiero también la mayor de sus alegrías.
Amigo que no ríe con uno, no sabe sufrir con uno. Mis amigos son todos así: mitad estupidez, mitad seriedad.
No quiero risas previsibles ni llantos piadosos, quiero amigos serios, de aquellos que hacen de la realidad su fuente de aprendizaje, pero luchan para que la fantasía no desaparezca.
No quiero amigos adultos ni aburridos. Los quiero mitad infancia y otra mitad vejez.
Niños, para que no olviden el valor del viento en el rostro y viejos,
para que nunca tengan prisa.
Tengo amigos para saber quién soy yo, pues viéndolos locos y santos, bobos y serios, niños y viejos, nunca me olvidaré de que la Normalidad es una ilusión imbécil y estéril.» -

They returned to Scotland where Gabriela won the admiration of her husband’s society friends – Wilde, Yeats, Engels, & others – with her “slight accent, neither French nor Spanish, but most attractive and charming, as foreign accents sometimes can be, especially with ladies.”
