* And by coincidence, I almost posted a rules question there just a few hours ago! I decided first to think over the presentation of my question.

WTF, are you John Ashcroft? Or perhaps are you one of those people who irreparably damaged Renaissance artworks in European churches by effacing artistic displays of genitalia and/or female breasts? Would you Bowdlerize Shakespeare, too?

Quote from: Shakespeare, The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark (modernized spelling for the ineducable peasants and proletarians here)

Hamlet
   Lady, shall I lie in your lap?

Lying down at OPHELIA’s feet

Ophelia
   No, my lord.
Hamlet
   I mean, my head upon your lap?
Ophelia
   Aye, my lord.
Hamlet
   Do you think I meant country matters?
Ophelia
   I think nothing, my lord.
Hamlet
   That’s a fair thought to lie between maids’ legs.

* nullius could write a very long post on sex in Shakespeare, but will stop there for now.

Some people wonder why I have become habituated to using my highlighter pen. I will illustrate here by example: My point was, of course, that if a painting is hanging in full public view in a major Parisian museum, and is displayed on that museum’s website (try my links!) with no 18+ check or other indicia of so-called “NSFW”, then I am sure it can embedded on this forum.

Despite my political and aesthetic disagreements with Courbet, I will defend this in Meta if Puritanical Americans whine for censorship of a painting that is currently displayed in the Musée d’Orsay in Paris:

Gustave Courbet, L’Origine du monde (oil on canvas, 1866)

Exhibit 0: A cunt.

I even showed the museum itself, for a reason. Do you suggest that this Very Venerable and Serious Museum publicly, openly displays things that cannot be embedded in posts on the libertarian cypherpunk Bitcoin Forum?

Exhibit 1: The Musée d’Orsay

I was not thus trying to educate the masses about art, or museums. And for the record, I actually dislike Courbet. What I ~~like~~ worship is the genre of classical and neoclassical nudes that I have posted numerous times in other threads. For example:

What, you want a clearer view? (Do a double-take: Yes, this is a statue.)

Quote from: Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

Supposing that Truth is a woman—what then?

Supposing that Truth is a woman—I will take mythopoetic licence, and name her the ‘ruler of men’ (Ἀνδρoμέδα). Thus in lieu of a thousand words, this is the picture of exposing Truth to the Internet masses:

Sorry, honey.

An inadvertent riddle, which needed some explaining:

Quote from: nullius on November 07, 2020, 05:29:10 AM

European culture in 1808: Pauline Borghese (née Bonaparte; Napoleon’s sister) poses as Venus with an apple.

Fun fact: Pauline had an affair with Paganini.

* nullius carries on ~~simultaneous affairs~~ a ménage à trois with Eris and Aphrodite—whilst courting the virgin Athena Pallas.

Nietzsche: She and her sister Truth have rejected the advances of the ~~philosophers~~ philosophasters.

I did not mention how hard I searched for a semi-nude of this virgin.

Are you serious? Do you suppose that I would make a post violating the forum’s rules, and then run to hide the evidence? —What, are you Timelord now, rattling a sabre with archives? Roll Eyes
