I saw this letter from Camille to his father at an auction website and the crossed out sections, missing from the transcribed version, are interesting.
The letter is referenced in Leuwers’ biography and appears this way in Matton’s Correspondence Inédite:
The actual letter had two crossed out sections:
After asking his father to send subscriptions, he crosses out “Je compte deja parmi mes abonnés deux princes du sang.” Probably because he realized that bragging about getting subscriptions from the aristocracy is not very republican, he extra crosses out “deux princes du sang.”
(Although I wonder if this is accurate, because it looks like more words than “deux princes du sang” to me.)
The other is a minor change, from “à deux heures du matin” to “après minuit.” It doesn’t change the meaning, it’s just a small stylistic choice. The kind of thing that you get to see in a letter that’s lost in transcription.

Yoo guys I found some interesting information about the motorcity racing car. Apparently I found in this news post that in 2012 hyundai exited from motorsports and cut Ties with Rhys millen. Apparently Rhys millen sold their hyundai sports cars and the Motorcity car was up for sale. That means that someone might have bought it and it might be somewhere out there.

thinking about older bf!simon that doesn’t have to understand it to get behind it
“y’sure sweet’art? i could do with a shower”
you didn’t have to say anything, just had to look at him a certain way to tell him everything he had to know
“oh, thas’ the point innit?”
he doesn’t get it, but he always gets it
thick thighs spread on the couch with a spit-slicked fist stroking his cock steadily
your tongue rolling over his balls, sucking one into your mouth as you dug your fingernails into the taught muscle of his legs
“jus’ like that, oh- you filthy fuckin’ thing, you”
he smelt like hard work, like a long day, like manual labour, like-
he smelt like simon
the sound of your deep inhale wasn’t lost on him, making his eyes roll back in his head as it accompanied the lewd wet sounds of your lips
beating his cock faster, the other slipped around the back of your head to pull you in and keep you right where he wanted you
doesn’t have to understand to enjoy
“thas’ it, hold y’head steady f’me now”

there are a lot of evil people in the world and a lot of darkness in the world and so it’s very important for me to stress that now more than ever is the time to spread kindness and compassion. combat the evil by not only not partaking in it, but actively refuting it. destroy the notion that being compassionate or generous or kind to someone is uncool or embarrassing or even scary. be the change you want to see. start a chain reaction. positivity only breeds more positivity. do an act of kindness for someone so that that person who is too afraid to do it themselves can see you, realize that they’re not alone, and perhaps sheepishly follow your example. and then the next person who is too afraid but sees that person can do the same. when bad news comes out about bad people or horrible atrocities in the world it’s such an easy impulse to despair, and obviously it’s important to feel what you need to feel. grieve. be angry. be sorrowful. be empathetic. but dust off your pants and get up and be a part of a chain reaction that, no matter how small the scale, and spread compassion and love and care. all the reasons why you might not—“it’s hard! it’s scary! people will make fun of me! it’s useless because there’s too much evil!” are all grade A arguments as to why you should. you have no idea how many people you could inspire to do the same. even if it doesn’t get you anyway far, you can at least say you have the nobility of trying. please choose love and please choose life. you are worth loving and you are worth inspiring others to love
