not Peter Cochran discouraging someone from creating a byron association in brasil because it would “attract lots of weird people” LMAOOOO
(source)
translation:
When we wrote him just over a year before his death, in the beginning of 2014, telling him that we were translating Don Juan and looking for information about the prospect of officially opening a Byron Association in Brazil, Cochran responded that an integral translation to Portuguese was important, because he knew there wasn’t any, and told me to focus on it and avoid thinking about an “association of byronists” in Brazil for the time being, since it would attract “lots of weird people”.

image if two decades after your death a teenage boy becomes completely obsessed with you and writes poems and novels inspired by your work and then dies and after his death his work gags people so much you become nationally famous but only like. through association with him. this is what happened to lord byron in brazil.

Dina ( @dina179 ) a young mother of three beautiful children- oldest of whom is just seven years old and youngest being a baby who was born in a tent with very little medical facilities available. With every single day that passes, her children lose the childhood they should be spending playing with other kids their age to this genocide.
Dina has been fundraising on this site since june of this year and has only been able to reach 30% of her goal. There is still a long way to go, but her campaign has been stagnating badly, with only $15 donated in the past 2 DAYS.
She has told me how she has been despairing at this state of things, and this fundraiser is her only hope in taking care of her children. Please don't let dina and her children noor (7 years), omar (5 years) and baby farah be forgotten- please donate anything you can spare to her fundraiser and help this family survive.

worst part about the Internet is knowing that there are finally people who both match and complement your freak. the nearest one is 2,318.4 miles away and your time zones are awkward
