An interesting and accurate analogy by Aditya Chakrabortty in The Guardian. Briton isn’t all smiles and wealth. It’s become a cesspool of corruption, destitution, greed, and sycophantism. Anywhere else in the world, the people would be in open revolt, but that’s just not British! Time to stare that portrait in the face.

Boris will be 59 years old on Monday and his face now satisfyingly resembles the portrait of more than the mask of Gray's persona.

In deciding whom you believe as between the various parliamentary authorities and parliamentarians, I urge you to bear this thought in mind.

[, however, has the face of a new-born baby in comparison]

Think I may be experiencing a episode. Seemingly innocuous but new pimple on my back which my partner photo’d (we mole map on the cheap) seems to have * from a benign black scabby head into a raw aperture with a wiggly white worm poking through. Françoise says try not to think of it. I’m utterly obsessed with it. The skin on the back is quite taut else I’d have it out with a knife & we’d see who’s who!

Don't do fascism kids

RT @BrexitBuster@twitter.com

Unemployed and unemployable former minor jobbing actor Loozza Fox is literally rotting away in time lapse. It’s like the picture of Dorian Gray has come down from the attic and has its own Twitter account. Horrific.

⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Picture Of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde.

"Destiny does not send us heralds. She is too wise or too cruel for that"

One of my favorite classics 🤎 it would be a five star if not for the 1800s casual racism.

The only horrible thing in the world is ennui, Dorian. That is the one sin for which there is no forgiveness.

Massimo Dallamano’s superb 1970 The Secret of Dorian Gray claims to be a modern allegory inspired by Wilde’s novel The Picture of Dorian Gray rather than an adaptation but while it's been updated to contemporary times it is in fact a reasonably sound adaptation.

This is 1970 decadence, and very decadent it is.

Helmut Berger is the definitive screen Dorian Gray.
