Much as I like Pride & Prejudice I find it impossible to deny that this is the greatest review of it of all time.

Just a bunch of people going to each other's houses.

Managed to navigate my "war-ravaged" city to find this cute miniature haunted library where you can take a ghost home with you 😭😭❤️

9 years since deciding going on a date with @casualstev.bsky.social wouldn't be a terrible idea, and 5 years since deciding getting married in the rain was a fantastic one.

Thanks for the adventure today - even if we both thought we'd die from the mountain roads and their big, scary potholes. 🥰

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

-FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

Original 1925 jacket cover of The Great Gatsby

The Great Gatsby
Here is a novel, glamorous, ironical, compassionate a marvellous fusion into unity of the curious incongruities of the life of the period which reveals a hero like no other one who could live at no other time and in no other place. But he will live as a character, we surmise, as long as the memory of any reader lasts.
"There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life. ..
It was an
extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again?"
It is the story of this Jay Gatsby who came so mysteriously to West Egg, of his sumptuous er-tertainments, and of his love for Daisy Buchanan a story that ranges from pure lyrical beauty to sheer brutal realism, and is infused with a sense of the strangeness of human circumstance in a heedless universe.
It is a magical, living book, blended of irony, romance, and mysticism.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Do think all our problems could be solved if someone built something called like the Alpha Male Death Battle To The Death Arena Sponsored By Monster Energy and filled the place with weapons and speakers that played canned applause every time anyone died. This would be voluntary but the doors lock

We've been saving this little pup for when we thought you all might really need a gold star. And, given the current circumstances, here she is. 13/10

a tiny white dog stands on a tile floor and looks up at you. they’re wearing a big plush yellow star around their teensy noggin, like the world’s most congratulatory lion mane. we really needed to see her today.

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children.

We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread.

Measles outbreak in Texas rises to at least 58 cases — the state's worst in over 30 years

A measles outbreak in Texas has led to 58 confirmed cases, making it the state's worst in over 30 years — and local health officials say additional cases are likely to occur.
