There are moments that put everything in perspective. Watching @SenMarkKelly launch his final mission with @NASA—15 years ago today—was one of them. I was just a few months into my recovery, but seeing the Space Shuttle Endeavour take off made me feel like anything was possible. Endlessly proud of you, Mark. Always.

In 1957, Marlon Green, an Air Force pilot, applied to be a Continental Airlines pilot. Green had applied to other airlines but was rejected each time. When he filled out his application for Continental, he left the “race” box unchecked. Green made it to the final round of interviews but was not hired, even though he had more flight time than the other candidates who were white. Green filed a complaint with the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Commission, a landmark case that ended up in the United States Supreme Court which ruled in Greens favor and helped dismantle racial discrimination in the American passenger airline industry. While David Harris was the first Black pilot hired with a major airline, Marlon Green’s fight for the right to be in the flight deck cleared a path for generations of Black pilots to come. In 2010, Continental dedicated a 737 named for Captain Marlon Green. The aircraft, N77518, still flies for United today. Thank you, Marlon Green for your contributions towards Black History and paving the way for many to follow 🧑🏾‍✈️✈️

I’m gonna post this video every day so we NEVER FORGET what Donald Trump did to the USA on January 6th!

Zoom in on Van Gogh and a detail can feel like a painting in its own right. Can you guess which artwork this detail comes from?

This is the funniest thing I’ve seen on the internet. Afroman had his house raided by Ohio Adam County deputies… who found absolutely nothing… broke his door, trashed his place, allegedly had $400 go missing… and then they refused to pay for the damages. So, like any reasonable rapper would do… He turned his home security footage into music videos, mocking them. And then, the deputies sued him for FOUR MILLION dollars… because they didn’t like being made fun of. And Afroman’s response? He dropped ANOTHER music video. In his own words: “Unconfidential informant lied to Police to get out of some trouble. Adam County Sherriff officers made a mistake by believing the lie. Raided my house, found nothing, refused to pay for the damages and filed a lawsuit against me, Afroman, for exercising my freedom of speech! This is me holding trial in one song. I hope you enjoy it.” They said his videos “ridiculed” them… so he decided to show them what that actually looks like. And the best part? A jury basically said… yeah… you don’t get to raid someone’s home, end up in their surveillance footage, and then cry because they used it to make fun of you.

🚨BREAKING: Law enforcement threatened to kill an unarmed 17-year-old as he was leaving an anti-ICE protest in Indianapolis. In the video, police officers stop a 17-year-old and order him out of his car. He calmly asks why. Instead of answering, an officer opens the car door, grabs his arm, and says: “I will fucking kill you.” An armed officer told an unarmed child he would kill him… with zero justification. The teen looks visibly shocked and gets out of the car. Officers then shove him against the vehicle and begin searching him. After threatening his life, the officer tries to justify it by saying, “He was reaching for a gun.” The teen responds, “Who was reaching for a gun?!?” They find no gun… because he never had a gun, and never reached for anything. This police officer illegally threatened to use lethal force against a minor who committed no crime. Which is exactly what happens when a government excuses, defends, and normalizes law enforcement aggression. When officers know they won’t be held accountable, the threats get louder, the lies get sloppier, and the violence escalates.

I’m on my apartment balcony to illustrate how Donald Trump’s corruption and contempt for the rule both threatens our democracy *and* affects our everyday lives. Behind me is the Gateway project, a $16 billion effort to build a new rail tunnel across the Hudson. It's the most important infrastructure project in the country, vital to the economy of New York and the rest of the northeastern U.S.. The work will stop today—with thousands of jobs lost—because Donald Trump *illegally* cut off the funding. Why?  Because he wants *Penn Station* (and Dulles Airport) to be named after *him*.  So the fight against Trumpism is both about democracy and our economic well-being.  It’s *one* fight. It’s either Trump or us.  We can’t go on with him another three years. And that’s why I’m running for Congress. Join the fight at georgeconwayforcongress.com.

@harchivist @AnthonyFarnell lol

@AnthonyFarnell That's what you get for being shallow.

Lake Erie headed for 100% ice coverage, for the first time this century.

Come on what constitution, what rules of law. Trump says we can do anything we want.

.@elonmusk knew Trump was in the Epstein files and Epstein’s world …because he was there with him.

John Bishop has urged football fans to boycott the World Cup: “My feeling is boycott it. I think the World Cup was a joke. I think FIFA giving Donald Trump a big rosette and a peace prize has undermined everything that football's about.”
