With apologies, I submit to you a piece of SMUT penned by the young Georges Bataille. We have reveled in the Solar Anus, we have ascended to the Summit, and now it is time for Story of the Eye. Please read chapters 1-8 (pages 3-52).

Alternate version, if you have woes with the PDF: https://supervert.com/translations/georges-bataille/story-of-the-eye

The rules are: you’re allowed to quit midway if you feel excessive nausea. We will judge whether to go into the second half based on everyone’s uh sensibilities. Please consider what this text suggests about Bataille’s theory of Evil as Freedom, and bear in mind that YOU WANTED TO READ THIS.

In other news: The Bastards will take a holiday the week of 9/11, and reconvene our council on 9/18.
