My flatmate said, “he turned a ring into a penis” and I knew I needed to find this book. Amores by Ovid is fascinating yet hilarious, particularly Elegy XV which is a love letter to a mistress…
“To touch her hand thou wilt the pleasure have;
I now must envy what myself I gave.
O! would a Proteus or a Circe change
Me to thy form, that I like thee might range !
Then would I wish thee with her breasts to play,
And her left hand beneath her robes to stray.
Tho' straight she thought me, I will then appear”

I did this last night and it was a hilarious voyeuristic joy. A great tale of intimacy, being a perv and a simp, and shames. High levels of erotic creativity and ridiculousness coming Live from 1909 Ireland.
“Time fly on, fly on quickly! I want to go back to my love, my life, my star, my little strange-eyed Ireland!”

Eat ‘em, drink ‘em, smell ‘em… when I first tasted this godly fruit it was like that scene from Ratatouille. Taste buds ignited. Underrated and Overdelicious.

Lately I have appreciated the art of the flirt. In an interview I heard with Sofia Hagen, they said that flirting “is not about you, it’s a gift you’re giving someone.” And that turned my whole perspective around.
