Butterflies and Formaldehyde

"We have souls, you and I. We want to know things; we share the same earth, rich and verdant and fraught with perils. We don't- either of us- know what it means to die, no matter what we might say to the contrary."

theoddmentemporium:

An anti-masturbation device. The rare 19th century item is made of copper and was designed to be worn by boys so they could not commit the ‘sin’. Attached to a belt it would have encased the genitalia. The bizarre antique dates back to around 1880 and was used in Catholic France.
