"I'm alive!" said Gatsby, roaring past on a speedboat. He'd faked his own death and gotten away with everything. That's why they called him the Great Gatsby. "Out of the way, current!" he yelled at the water. "This speedboat is bearing me ceaselessly into the future!"

Every time I read The Great Gatsby, the final paragraph brings me to tears. Breathtakingly powerful writing:

The Democrats shouldn't be there.

Instead, tomorrow Rep. Green will get scolded by @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social for his lack of "decorum," because Democratic leaders have no plan, no vision and no will to meet this moment with the fight it requires

Hey McConnell GFY, we’re here because of you. NOW you’re sounding the alarm? Too little too late you feckless bloat.

Do you remember that time Pence tried to see Hamilton and the cast called him out.

Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal.

Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home.

That.

Do that.

Can’t believe New York ended up with a worse mayor than the guy who personally engineered 9/11

I’m so so sorry about your cats. I hope you get good news. Is it Wild Coast cat food?

We can stop reading the NYT and WaPo any time and support independent journalism instead.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.

Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

All these goobers posting airplanes and stars thinking they’re drones made me realize that if there was social media 500 years ago, a bunch of people would have been sharing pictures labeled “omg a mermaid” with community notes like “that’s a rock” and “manatee.”

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends:

1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration;

2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you;

3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.
