Fitzgerald scholar here.
Jimmy "Jay Gatsby" Gatz grew up penniless, worked for a Jewish "gambler," lost his girl to a rich racist abuser, took the rap for Myrtle's killing, and was murdered in the swimming pool of his rented mansion. One guy came to his funeral—and called him a poor son of a bitch.

"You can take your boots off" says Belafonte to Dylan.
"Okay," comes Dylan's voice.
The sound of a zip.
Then Belafonte jokes about slippers.
Then they let rip.
Harry Belafonte, with Bob Dylan on harmonica, "Midnight Special," NYC, April 1961.

"Here are 80 tracks dating from 1963 to just last month, from musicians with the beautiful presumption to know what was in Dylan’s always mysterious, always revelatory heart when they interpreted these tunes… or that it didn’t matter if they could make them even prettier."

Beautiful show in Stockholm. Two guitar intros with extended play on River Flow. Highlights for me Made Up My Mind and outstanding Desolation Row with some melody play. Strong strong vocals after a song or two. Musicians killed as always. Audience A+++

I really love how in England they have modified No Kings to No Tyrants out of local sensibilities whilst in Ireland they are all like NO KINGS, do I stutter.

A lifetime ago, I was going to work on a PhD dissertation on the Irish humor of Joyce, O'Brien, and Beckett. This post would've been a glorious "and, finally ..."

This has always been part of the GOP playbook: Downplay incidents of right-wing violence, and then repurpose them as supposed acts of leftist terrorism for public consumption. They first did this in 2020.

Bondi: "We've been living through a horrific cycle of political violence in this country ... night after night antifa wrecks havoc on the streets of our cities. In Minnesota, a gunman murdered a state lawmaker and her husband."

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

This is a wonderful articulation of how it feels to be a Black person in white spaces, who for reasons of safety has to "laugh along with their own humiliation." This man is a very successful lawyer and will never be safe from it so imagine everyone else. Our identity is inherently political. 💔

If your anywhere in the northern half of the US please turn off your lights tonight & probably the next few weeks. Some places are hitting peak migration traffic, many birds migrate mostly at night, & nighttime light messes up their ability to stay on efficient migration routes.
