Who wrote this opening line of a great novel? What is the novel?

I visit the grave of #TheodoreRoosevelt regularly to keep him up-to-date on the country. Today he weeped.

A White House being renovated, not desecrated. The Woolworth Mansion in Glen Cove #EastWingDemolition

Crimes against humanity. #funny

Thinking about my baby brother, Lee, who died on this day in 2022. He had early-onset Alzheimer's. He was a Dad, husband, cat dad and a wonderful and genius brother. A world renowned microbiologist and virologist. #RIP Lee.

Bat content is always my favorite.

Sorry, not sorry #funny

My level of acceptance is starting to teeter. #2025Inflation

no apologies #funny

Your move.

@cnn.com edits WH interviews www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWud... This is the original, and Miller didn't glitch technically, he glitched dictatorially.

@jacobsoboroff.bsky.social deserves a #Pulitzer for the work he is doing on documenting the march of autocracy.

The Democrats seem so weak in these #BondiHearings. I am disappointed. Why does nobody confront the whataboutism that she spews with rancor? Sigh.

What the hell is trump babbling about??? OMG, I am so embarrassed.

www.businessinsider.com/jimmy-kimmel... Kimmel's back tomorrow. Things that make you go: hmmmmm? #DisneyCancellations It's always about the money, eh?

All the Christians, ahoy. If this doesn't bother you, you are not paying attention.

Every year in @secondlife.bsky.social I put out this old build of mine. This is the first time I rotated the flag upside down. #911Day #September11 #WTC Commemorating the day everything changed in my city.

Missing #Japan I took this and then went wild with filters and stuff.

Daines, another man trying to control women's bodies. What is your real agenda, man??? #RFKJr

PREDICTION: Number of challenging questions from the reporters at the #CabinetMeeting.

He just farted. I heard it. #CabinetMeeting

Russell Vought has the dead eyes of a sociopath.

OC. #CabinetMeeting #Trump Pay attention. He needs to keep talking. Holding court is his drug.

No questions? Back to #Epstein

Again another presser and nobody asks about #Epstein.

Spread this far and wide. #Epstein #GhilaineMaxwell

Is any reporter going to challenge the lies told by #KarolineLeavitt during this presser now? Anyone?

#TrumpPresser "Maybe if I filibuster the answers, no one will ask about Epstein."

Sitting at home, painting rocks, and watching my country fall into autocracy. With a whimper, not a bang.

#TrumpPresser Haven't heard the: "roving bands of thugs" since Nixon. Hmmmmmm

And the torch passes.

My late bf. I miss him still.

After years and years of spending thousands of dollars on Tim Apple's products, I guess I am done. Sell out to the King and become as popular as Elon Musk.

Hey @cnn.com why aren't you covering this?????? abovethelaw.com/2025/08/cong...

Every line in this song fits this moment, right here, right now. #America #Democracy #TrumpIsADIctator

#RIP #LoniAnderson

Things that make you go: hmmmm

#funny #cats

Forgot I had this from Madame Tussaud's #NYC #RIPOzzy

#RenoShooting Am I horrible? As soon as I hear the shooter is in custody, I assume he is white.

Prophetic!

Attention #MAGA It's going to be OK.

RIP #OzzyOsbourne
