>Alright anon, it's 3 pm and we just woke up. We're going to need to score some opium, loiter around the trendiest art galleries, have sex with five or six of the women who want to model for our paintings, get our hands on some amphetamines so we can bang out another 5,000 words for those avant-garde magnum opera of ours with rather blatant anti-jewish undertones, go on a pub crawl with the wives of our editors, then get back to our hotel by 6am so we can read another chapter of Nieztsche while receiving blowjobs from my schizoid arthoe cousin before going to bed so we can wake up and do it all over again. You ready?

How did authors afford this lifestyle? Before they sold their first book, I mean.

Many didn’t and it’s genuinely sad. One of my favorite decadents is Auguste Villiers de l'Isle-Adam and well, here’s what wiki says.

> Villiers' aunt died in 1871, ending his financial support. Though Villiers had many admirers in literary circles (the most important being his close friend Stéphane Mallarmé), mainstream newspapers found his fiction too eccentric to be saleable, and few theatres would run his plays. Villiers was forced to take odd jobs to support his family: he gave boxing lessons and worked in a funeral parlour and was employed as an assistant to a mountebank. Another money-making scheme Villiers considered was reciting his poetry to a paying public in a cage full of tigers, but he never acted on the idea. According to his friend Léon Bloy, Villiers was so poor he had to write most of his novel L'Ève future lying on his belly on bare floorboards, because the bailiffs had taken all his furniture. His poverty only increased his sense of aristocratic pride.

>In 1875, he attempted to sue a playwright he believed had insulted one of his ancestors, Maréchal Jean de Villiers de l'Isle-Adam. In 1881, Villiers stood unsuccessfully for parliament as a candidate for the Legitimist party. By the 1880s Villiers' fame began to grow, but not his finances. The publishers Calmann-Lévy accepted his Contes cruels, but the sum they offered Villiers was negligible. The volume did, however, come to the attention of Joris-Karl Huysmans, who praised Villiers's work in his highly influential novel À rebours. By this time, Villiers was very ill with stomach cancer. On his deathbed, he finally married Marie Dantine, thus legitimising his beloved son "Totor". He is buried in Père Lachaise Cemetery.[2]

You would know that you agree with someone on something but not with a peculiar person on a whole set of ideas.

Which renders you suggestion for him to lose his trip pointless.

Don't you play dumb with me now. For that is already to late.

Most of them were minor nobles, which means they either had a generous allowance or a more or less never-ending line of credit.

Nah, I keep it to save important discussions, dialogues, critiques of my poetry/philosophy and ultimately because a long while ago back on irc there was a friend group I had and we all used the name “frater” so it has some kind of sentimentality. Thanks again anon, it’s nice to know other anons share my taste.

But I don't need to agree with a peculiar person, in fact I don't want too on this website. I want to be able to call someone a faggot on a thread while having a nice discussion about Rilke's poetry with the same person in another thread.
