 Gatsby Fan Fiction

Wilson 's heart pounded in his chest as he stood hidden in the ashy shadows outside Gatsby's gold mansion. Feud by vengeance, his obsession was leading him to this desperate act. The stars shimmered in the night sky over West Egg.

With trembling hands, Wilson clutched a revolver, the cold steel a chilling reminder of his intent. The extravagant party inside Gatsby's mansion raged on, the music and laughter echoing through the night. Gatsby, the host of these grand spectacles, stood at the center, and it was his presence that Wilson sought to confront. Wilson was in shambles, he didn’t know what he should do, his mind was conflicted.

Pushing through the crowd, the music's crescendo urging Wilson to do it. Gatsby's eyes met his, and an unexpected look of surprise flickered across his face. The moment had come. The gun was drawn from Wilson's pocket, and he aimed it at Gatsby. Wilson shouted, “it’s over, I have become death destroyed of worlds.”

As the world around him seemed to blur, Wilson pulled the trigger, the gunshot rang throughout the hall. Unknown to the bullet had missed its mark, hitting the glass Gatsby was holding and knocking him down, making it seem like Gatsby was killed. Chaos erupted. Glasses shattered, and people screamed. Wilson walked up to Gatsby’s body laughing psychotically. The thought occurred to Wilson, one death didn’t satisfy his rage, the anger he harbored to the world didn’t subside. Wilson decided to extract his revenge on the rest of the world, shooting innocent cars, people, and committing heinous deeds. Right before he was subdued by the police, he shot a young couple speeding away in their blue coupe (it was Tom and Daisy). Gatsby on the other hand recovered and got past it, he decided to cut ties with everybody and live out his life in solitude.

    I like how descriptive your writing was, exemplifying the scene and the intensity of what was happening during your section of the story.

    Your blog is interesting as it gives a different finish to the Great Gatsby. Even if the whole first part of the book was kept, your part would still fit the story perfectly. It would also change the meaning of story and create an interesting twist. Wilson would actually punish the right person for killing his wife in your story.

    I really liked how you focused on a minor character and gave us a lot of thought on how he feels. I also liked how you were completely able to change the outcome of the story.

What happend to cancel culture?

Image
  Most of us are familiar with cancel culture, it’s when somebody is publicly executed online for saying something wrong. However, is it used for the right or wrong reasons? I can’t deny that it has been crucial for punishing various famous public figures for their acts of sexual abuse, predatory behavior, fraud, racism, or forms of scandal. Look at EDP445, a former YouTuber accused of predatory behavior, shows the impact of cancel culture. The internet came together to completely erase his presence on the platform, and publicly shun him. However, the misuse of cancel culture is increasingly prevalent, resulting in significant harm to innocent individuals. Some groups figured out that they could exploit cancel culture to silence opposing viewpoints or push their own agendas, regardless of the facts or context. An example of this is the word police, the world police have begun to use cancel culture to morph society to follow their agenda. Take Andrew Tate for an example, a huge role m

 https://www.theonion.com/biden-chases-soap-bubble-across-nation-1851265130   This was the satirical news letter that I read. " WASHINGTON—Clapping with delight while attempting to catch the thin, floating film of cleaning liquid, President Joe Biden chased a soap bubble across the nation Thursday, Beltway sources confirmed. “Come back, Mr. Bubble!” said the commander in chief, who reportedly gave chase to the bubble after spotting it emerging from the White House kitchen, drawing the curious president onto the West Lawn and down Pennsylvania Avenue as he avoided several near-misses with cars and 16-wheelers, finally embarking on the 1,656-mile cross-country journey that brought him to the Great Plains where he giggled with visible joy as a gust took the bubble in the direction of Yellowstone National Park. “You’re being so silly—even sillier than when you landed on that goose’s head and almost let me catch you. But that’s why I love you so much. You’re my

I want a wife

 How accurate was the “I want a wife” piece? The "I Want a Wife" piece which is written by Judy Brady is obviously a satirical piece of work that attempts to show gender roles and expectations for women within marriage. However, its solely catering to a feminist audience, so wont she just have a biased opinion? Brady’s entire piece is basically just criticizing men while empowering women in an attempt to lie about everything wife’s do. Yes, some of the things she says is true but if you combine everything she says and look at it logically it seems highly unlikely that a wife does all of what she says. Brady portrays the role of a wife as a gruesome task where they sacrifice their entire life to server under their tyrannical ogre of a husband. She provides unreasonable standards of what a wife does and makes it out to seem that every wife is perfect and hardworking while they slave away under their husbands just to be “replaced” if a “more suitable wife” appears. She says that
