King Charles III sent a letter to @Astro_Jeremy to acknowledge Canada’s role in the Artemis II mission.
“I was deeply touched to receive this message, which honours the collective vision and dedication behind this historic moment.” — Jeremy Hansen

The ‘leader of the free world’ ladies and gentlemen. Wtf is going on. Genuinely curious how people defend this dangerous imbecile.

The president is incoherently telling lie after lie on live television, contradicting himself in real time and offering no specifics in response to questions, while blaming NATO and others for a war he started. Networks are cutting away.

A musician once cost an airline $180 million because they wouldn’t pay him $1,200 for a broken guitar.
In 2008, Canadian musician Dave Carroll was on a connecting flight when a passenger behind him looked out the window and said, “My God, they’re throwing guitars out there.” When Carroll opened his case at his destination, his $3,500 Taylor acoustic, an instrument he’d saved for months to buy, had a hole smashed through it.
He called the airline. They bounced him between departments for nine months. He was told to fly to another country to file his complaint in person. He was hung up on, ignored, and eventually told the matter was closed. His final request for $1,200 in flight vouchers to cover repair costs was rejected.
So he asked himself: “If Michael Moore was a singer-songwriter, what would he do?”
He wrote a song called “United Breaks Guitars,” filmed a music video for $150, and uploaded it to the internet. His goal was one million views in a year.
It hit 150,000 on the first day. Within a week it was the number one music video in the world. Within four weeks, news outlets reported the airline’s share price had dropped 10%, wiping roughly $180 million in value.
The airline called him. They offered the $1,200 they’d originally refused, plus $1,200 in cash. The owner of Taylor Guitars personally rang and told him to come to the factory and pick out two guitars as a gift.
Carroll became an international speaker on customer service. The airline used his video for internal training.
He still flies with them. A United employee once walked up to him at an airport, looked around to make sure no colleagues were watching, shielded himself with his jacket, and quietly reached out to shake his hand.

Emma Archibald of Fall River will not compete in the 20 km Interval Start free standing race this morning, her last event at this year‘s Paralympics due to illness.
She has come down with the flu, she said.
While it’s a sad ending to her first Paralympics, she has done quite well and we are all very proud of her effort and performance.
Way to go, Emma!! @CrossCountryNS
