🇺🇸 Take a minute to reflect on the hallowed grounds of the Normandy American Cemetery in France on this Memorial Day. Perched on a bluff overlooking Omaha Beach — the very site where our heroes launched the greatest assault for liberty in human history — lie the final resting places of 9,389 American warriors who gave their last full measure of devotion during D-Day in World War II. These are not just graves. They are monuments to American courage, sacrifice, and the fierce belief that freedom is worth dying for. Among them: • 307 Unknown Soldiers — forever honored, never forgotten. • 1,557 names inscribed on the Walls of the Missing — their spirits still watching over the cause they served. • 45 pairs of brothers who fought and fell together. • Three Medal of Honor recipients and four heroic American women buried side by side with their brothers-in-arms. This sacred cemetery was established on June 8, 1944, just days after the invasion. This was the first American WWII cemetery on European soil. A permanent reminder that when evil threatened the world, America answered the call. To every American who stormed those beaches, climbed those cliffs, and never came home: Your blood bought our tomorrow. Because of you, the light of liberty still shines bright across the globe. We will never forget. We will never falter. God Bless our Fallen Heroes. God Bless the United States of America. ❤️🤍💙

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.

A WWII veteran returns to Utah Beach, the Normandy shore where D-Day unfolded. This Memorial Day, we remember the Americans who never came home, the heroes who gave everything so we could be free.

Pizza Hut franchises across the country are rolling out "Pizza Hut Classic" remodels to bring back the iconic '80s and '90s dining experience. Franchisees are reviving beloved staples like the red cups, checkered tablecloths, salad bars, and classic Tiffany-style lamps to draw families back into dining rooms. After years of sleek modern redesigns, the old-school dine-in feel is suddenly making a comeback.

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

Who remembers?

There’s about a 75% chance the first time in your life you felt like a badass came behind the wheel of one of these sweet bastards.

Who here is old enough to remember Pole Position? Published in 1982 by Namco, it essentially revolutionized racing games. It was the first to introduce and popularize the "behind the car" third-person perspective, which became the industry standard for racing games ever since. Pretty wild - at least from today's perspective - to see ads from global brands like Marlboro, Martini or Pepsi in an arcade game. But then again, you could also smoke on commercial flights and nobody would tell you "sugar is bad" when you had a Pepsi as a little kid. The 80s were different. Pole Position became the #1 arcade game in terms of gross revenue in 1983 and even remained among the top earners when Pole Position II was released.

“How do you like them apples?” was a phrase Matt Damon and Ben Affleck used growing up in Boston, so they added it into Good Will Hunting (1997). It ended up becoming one of the most iconic lines in the entire movie.

Lo que más me apena del cuarenta aniversario de Braveheart es que no la vi en cine. Es una de las películas de mi vida y la BSO de Horner también.

Men will bbq meat and be like “ok dinner is ready” No sides. No drinks. Just meat. I’m proud to be one of those men.

There was a 40 year period in history when samurai, pirates, and cowboys all technically existed at the same time.

Unpopular opinion: Starbucks coffee is bitter and gross, no matter how many pumps of sweetener you put in.

The Legend of Zelda - NES (1987): That golden cartridge hit different. 🗡️ Hours lost burning bushes, bombing every wall, and drawing maps on notebook paper. Pure magic. ✨ #LegendOfZelda #RetroGaming #NES

The Last Starfighter, is it still worth a watch in 2026? 🪐🚀

You have got to be kidding me. Bases loaded nobody out and you don’t get a ball out of the freaking infield. Keep sticking with that same batting order Skip…. #Cubs

Zoomers: “Boomers have all the money.” Boomers: “Baby, that’s because we’re still eating the same pot of beans we started cooking in 1974 while y’all DoorDash a smoothie with a service fee, delivery fee, convenience fee, and emotional damage fee.”
