it is a lovely coincidence that june is pride month as well as the anniversary of the time lord byron, percy and mary shelley, claire clairmont, and john polidori all gathered around at the villa diodati on lake geneva in 1816 to tell each other ghost stories and write some of the greatest literature in history while waiting out the nightly summer storms during what was known as “the year without a summer” due to a volcanic winter event after the eruption of mount tambora a year prior

Rumours about Soult's wealth, 1816

Newspaper snippets fom January 1816, immediately before Soult is exiled from France:

Regensburger Zeitung, 9 January 1816 Marshal Soult, establishing himself in Belgium, is said to bring with him a fortune of 27 million francs!

This newspaper article was repeated and embellished by several papers over the next two weeks, to the point of some people claiming to have seen Soult in Brussels at a theatre.

Meanwhile, in Saint-Amans:

Soult to his wife, 10 January 1816 [...] The future frightens me. I don't know how we will be able to ensure our existence and provide for our children's education, until we have liquidated the capital represented by our Villeneuve countryside, the house in Paris and the furniture that belongs to it, in order to convert it into land that produces some income or annuities on the State, for which the interest would be guaranteed. [...]

Interestingly, he does not even mention selling his Spanish paintings.

When we enter sleep, we enter an entirely new world, one that is filled with dreams carrying their own pleasure and pain. In Part One of ‘The Dream', Byron separates our lives into waking and dreaming worlds, explicating how dreams render their own reality, through power of vision and intensity of thought. Yet equally pertinent is the amalgamation of the two: how dreams borrow from our conscious thought and how we, in turn, bring essences of our dreams into our waking world.

desperately need a dude i can nickname “sweet elf,” who hasn’t slept in 3 days, is vegetarian, translates plato for fun, got kicked out of oxford at the age of 18 for penning the first pro-atheism work in the english language and mailing it to every bishop in england, distributes political pamphlets in handmade hot air balloons, hallucinates from stress, plays with paper boats and rocks while declaring these to be serious forms of scientific experimentation, hangs out with lord byron, casually writes some of the greatest poetry in the english language but then threatens to quit constantly because he’s not famous yet, is convinced he is dying of consumption despite no proof, blows things up with gunpowder unprovoked, and is addicted to sailing as fast as possible while refusing to learn how to swim.
