      Arthur Chu Retweeted The Disordered Cosmos by Chanda Prescod-Weinstein

      When we were assigned that book in high school I barreled through it in one sitting and I'll still defend it to the hatershttps://twitter.com/IBJIYONGI/status/1366068173796216833 …

      The Great Gatsby, the actual book, not people's trash ass adaptations of it into a tragic romance/big dress up party, is a great commentary on American society and a fine piece of writing suck it, haters

      I think one thing that makes people dislike it based on the adaptations is the adaptations linger It's how you get the sense that the point of the story is costume porn or opulence porn, that it's a long dragging Roaring 20s party The actual book goes by fast, at least for me

      the recent movie made the parties look like big, fun, extravagant affairs, which was never the impression I got from the book

      I always think of it as how much a movie like The Social Network would drag if it were being made in the future where they saw the 2000s as a "period setting" and they wanted to wallow in the "authentic aesthetic" of 2004 and give us a window into "vanished techbro subculture"
