I have to break this down here.
1.
I am SO sorry for you
I only saw it once but it was eeeenough x(
it was so bad!! and the WHOLE TIME chris just kept alternating between laughing at me and being all serious like "oh of COURSE this is a good movie ash what are you saying?"
at least josh a friend made him stop eventually.
but it was sooo awful
2.

3.
He sounds like a huge dork. the bunny pokemon fits him.

[hashtagafreakingghost]

From the movie version yes.
well I mean one of the movie versions.
there are a couple.
BUT anyway so you aren't familiar with the imagery or motifs in the novel right?
There's an important visual symbol that represents God and the death of the American dream through the eyes on a billboard of a fictional doctor named T.J. Eckleburg.
The billboard's worn out and desolate and hollow as is the dream but it's ALWAYS there watching the protagonists.
It represents how materialism has taken over society and therefore classism as well since Gatsby himself is a self-made man trying to make it in a world of rich people.
The eyes of God can only look out over the city from a billboard meaning even God's had to co-opt the materialist mindset to reach the world even if the one he's looking out at is bleak and dreary in the guise of a rich party life.
That's not to completely shun materialism. Just to try and address problems of society and the way it functions especially the upper-class compared to the others!

[callbacks]

maka albarn
shes from nevada i think youll like her
shes comes off kind of blunt and serious but shes really smart and cares a lot about doing right by people
anyway i think she lives in olivine city but she takes care of transportation for anyone who wants to get their geek on about books so you dont have to worry about walking all the way there

[Text]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

THAT'S a relief olivine looks SO far away on the map.
but so what do I do just send her a message???
when I'm ready of course I need to spend the next day just sleeping maybe.
I've never had to join a book club in a magical monster world before is there an etiquette for this??

[Text]

[callbacks]

i dont know ive never joined a book club period
i guess you could just tell her you heard about the club from me and express interest?
she knows me were cool
sometimes she advertises the meetings over the pokegears too but i dont know if thats an all the time thing or if theres a mailing list or what

[Text]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

referral from dave
OK I can do that.
that'll be so nice to just talk about literature with people. do you know if any of them write too?
