“I just remembered that today’s my birthday.” I was thirty. Before me...”
– Am I just super anxious about my imminent birthday or is The Great Gatsby actually really all about turning 30??
(Yes, this was my major takeaway from the movie.)

Tumbling for Good →
adcouncil:

– Nicole on Los Angeles - Garance Doré
I couldn’t’ve said it better.

– Anne-Marie Slaughter in Arguing Iraq—Ten Years After: A Symposium (via thenewrepublic)
Makes me love this woman even more. I wish that I believed Iraq was the political coming of age for the generation 10-15 years behind Slaughter (i.e. my generation) as Vietnam was for our parents.
