Satyricon. It's like a surviving 4chan thread of vignettes from the era. Fellini's film does it justice too

Gibbon finished publishing The Decline in 1789, and Pompeii wasn't even partially uncovered until the 1810's. And his core thesis about Christianity corrupting the state and people is demonstrably false. Gibbon is a waste of time at this point

I'm becoming more and more sickened of flesh fiends as I grow older. I had a kitten once and once he matured, he could not help but mount anything in sight including its own mother. You could pick him up and it would be in such a senseless frenzy to get from A to B. He eventually ran off but that is beside the point. I see these images, and humans are the same exact way. Remove the sensations of pleasure from the act, and it is quite a pathetic thing to be engaged it, and it is the ultimate end which people serve in all their daily going-ons. Divorced from any subjective pleasure it does not lead to any intellectually productive enterprises. I've had all the sex you could have and it did nothing but dig a deeper pit. Religious thinkers are only right in their idea of will. Too bad they fail to hit the nail on the head. A man is nothing more than a mesh of brain, subject to inputs, and that brain is a product of what it does. The more this is fed, the more it becomes man. Affects memory, will and action. Imagine being such a braindead NPC that you are imperceptible to how this changes you as you age. Imagine paying no attention to the increase of sexual dreams. Imagine paying no attention to how no matter how often it is done, it is never satisfied. If you exhaust the dialog options of the cumbrain, it will eventually concede it does not care if these are its thoughts and is just happy to take whatever pleasure comes along in life. It is worse than willfully going in to a barn and living like a farm animal.
