Yuja Wang delivers her signature performance of Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue." A highly characteristic and improvisational clarinet glissando opens up a musical space that is both elegant and free-spirited, reminiscent of 1920s New York.

@MLBPerformances How on earth do you not include Ron Swoboda's catch in the 1969 WS?

The greatest MLB catches ever made, and each one gets more legendary.

I was going to write how carpe diem means “fish of the day,” but I've never cared for fish and see no reason to promote them.

@_TheBookishOne It would be insulting not to.

If you hug me without grabbing my ass a little, do you even like me?

Here's a great photo of Christy Mathewson on the pitching mound. Who does it remind you of?

Want to lick hot sauce off me later?

A lot of people have struggled to believe me when I say that the Australian Human Rights Commission is giving pregnancy protections in law to men who claim to be woman, because it’s so stupid it’s hard to believe anyone would say it. Enjoy:

Last night, I made a simple request on X. I asked if anybody visiting Arlington National Cemetery for Memorial Day would stop by Alan’s grave and leave a photo for our family. What happened next honestly caught me off guard. By this afternoon, dozens of Americans from all walks of life had made the walk to Section 60 to visit SSG Alan W. Shaw. Veterans. Families. Complete strangers. People who had never met Alan, but chose to honor him anyway. For one day on social media, people put aside the constant noise and negativity and came together for something bigger than themselves. My notifications filled with photos, kind messages, prayers, and stories from people honoring not just Alan, but so many of our fallen heroes. I don’t think people fully understand what moments like this mean to Gold Star families. The fear is never just losing them. It’s losing them slowly over time as the world moves on and fewer people remember their name. But today showed me that Alan will never be forgotten. After years of watching social media reward some of the worst parts of humanity, today gave me a reminder that the good is still out there too. Thank you to every single person who stopped by to visit Alan today, said his name, shared his story, or took a moment to honor the fallen. This right here is the America Alan knew and loved enough to fight and die for. And today, y’all showed us all that it’s still here and it’s still worth fighting for. 🇺🇸

@TulsiGabbard @SharrellAnne2 God bless you and your husband for the challenges you face ahead. ❤️🇺🇸

It was an honor to visit your husband’s grave today on your behalf, and to pay my respects. It was wonderful to see the beautiful flowers representing many others who did the same. Our nation owes a debt of gratitude to those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and to the loved ones they left behind. Thank you for your service and sacrifice @SharrellAnne2 🙏🏽

This is probably a long shot, but if anybody happens to be in DC this weekend and plans on visiting Arlington, I would love to see a fresh photo of my husband’s grave in Section 60. SSG Alan W. Shaw Section 60, Grave 8451 B Co 1/12 Cav, 1st Cavalry Division November 10, 1975 - February 9, 2007 There’s just something about knowing people still stop by, still say his name, still remember. 🇺🇸⭐🇺🇸

This is very sad news. Requiascat in Pace to a legend.

@DannyDeraney Thank you and God bless you for sharing. 💔🙏🇺🇸

Every year, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil. #MemorialDayWeekend

@peakay81 @Mikkichaffin69 @jk_rowling You...you think he is in there simply to go to the bathroom? And yes...it's a costume.

@Mikkichaffin69 @jk_rowling I think your problem is too much fear and assuming that people are bad. Men arent dressing as women to get into changing rooms to kill women. That's your imagination in overdrive.

Follow the logic. Women are deluded and naive for thinking predatory and violent men can be kept out of women-only spaces. ‘They can rape you anywhere.’ However, trans-identified men can only be safe in women-only spaces, because no abuser would ever follow them in there.

On this Memorial Day, my heart feels heavy as I remember my brothers and sisters I served with who never made it home. We honor their ultimate sacrifice by standing up for the principles that unite us as Americans, defending our God-given freedoms, treating one another with aloha—respecting each other as children of God—and always striving for peace. Never forget. 🇺🇸

🚨#BREAKING: Thousands of American flags have been placed on the grave sites of the Western North Carolina Veterans Cemetery in Black Mountain NC by volunteers this Memorial Day. God bless those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

Today is our nations Memorial Day. Enjoy your day and take a moment to remember the true meaning of this day. A day to pay our respects to all those who have given their lives in our country's defense. God bless these brave heroes and their families.
