“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.” ― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

🎧 Ancient Rome. A formidable woman who refused to be underestimated. LISSA’s “That Woman” tells the story of Fulvia—a dramatic confrontation with power, arrogance, and the price of underestimating a woman. History has a way of repeating itself. Out October 19 #LISSA #NewMusic #Rome #Cicero #Fulvia

A girl won the role of Seymour in South Grand Prairie High School in Texas. Then, the district freaked out because of Texas' anti-trans and anti-gay law. So they tried to strip her role and give it to a boy. She refused, so now they are cancelling the play. Subscribe to support our journalism.

88 candles for John Dean!

Spiro’s Ghost@antitoxicpeople.bsky.social

Happy 88th birthday to one of our finest Americans, John Dean. 🎂🥳 He is a wonderful & thoughtful friend. 53 years ago he stood up to the most powerful man in the world & told the blunt truth while fully admitting his own mistakes. He has warned loudly about authoritarians, which sadly was ignored.
