@KevinLamb74 YES, YES, AND YES

George Lucas knew that in order for characters like those on the right to work, they need to be used sparingly, seen through the eyes of characters like those on the left. Once you take the characters on the right and make THEM the main protagonists, they lose their mystique and become mundane.

@r0berto_mid_5 This is really not true.

I think this area might be the most racist place in the world

@RoadandTrack What is happening.

Yes, this is a Ferrari. For real. Ferrari's first all-electric car, the Luce, has arrived, and it brings radical change to Maranello. What do you think of its looks?

A 12-year-old girl walked into a deli in Staten Island, New York, clutching her report card. She was nervous. Not about the grade — she'd worked hard for that — but about whether anyone would notice. Wail Alselwi noticed. He looked at her score. Smiled. Then slid $100 across the counter. "This is for you," he told her. "You earned it." That exchange — grades in, reward out — has become a ritual at Wail's deli. Every grading period, kids from the neighborhood file through the door with their report cards in hand instead of a grocery list. Students scoring above 90% walk out with $100, a T-shirt, and their pick of items from the store. Those in the 80–90% range leave with free snacks. And those who simply show improvement — who tried harder this semester than last — they don't leave empty-handed either. No lecture. No conditions. Just a man behind a counter who believes that a good grade deserves the same celebration as a touchdown. "I just want them to know someone sees what they're doing," Wail said. "School is hard. Life is hard. They deserve to feel that." Word spread the way only real things do — not through ads or press releases, but through kids telling other kids, and parents showing up with tears in their eyes just to shake his hand. Online donations poured in. Strangers who had never set foot in Staten Island sent money to keep the program alive. To date, over $54,000 has been raised. Every single dollar goes back to the kids. Wail isn't trying to be famous. He's not running a charity campaign or building a brand. He runs a deli. He just decided, one day, that a report card was worth more than a transaction. In a world full of noise, a quiet man in Staten Island is changing one grade at a time — and reminding us that sometimes, the most extraordinary people are the ones standing right behind the counter. 💚

There's so much to like and appreciate about the United States of America, past and present, not to mention its potentially glorious future, that I can't really fully understand how Critical America Theory even took off. There's no place like it. The last best hope on Earth!

Barbara Walters once wrote that many Americans have forgotten — and many others were never taught — how Jane Fonda’s actions during the Vietnam War were viewed by countless POWs and veterans. One of the most widely repeated accounts comes from Air Force pilot Jerry Driscoll, a POW held in the “Hanoi Hilton.” According to the story, he was cleaned up and forced to appear before Jane Fonda during her visit to North Vietnam. When ordered to praise his captors’ “humane treatment,” he instead spat at her. He was reportedly beaten severely afterward, suffering injuries that permanently affected his vision and ended his flying career. Another former POW, Colonel Larry Carrigan, described how prisoners secretly passed Jane Fonda slips of paper containing their Social Security numbers in hopes of proving to the world they were alive. The story claims she later handed those papers over to North Vietnamese officers, resulting in brutal beatings for the men involved. Carrigan survived. Others allegedly did not. Former civilian adviser Michael Benge, who was imprisoned for more than five years, also spoke publicly about his experience. He said he agreed to meet with Fonda because he wanted to tell her the truth about the treatment POWs endured — not the “humane and lenient” image being presented for propaganda purposes. According to Benge, he was severely punished before any meeting could happen. For many veterans and military families, Jane Fonda’s 1972 trip to Hanoi became a symbol of betrayal during a painful chapter in American history. While supporters viewed her as an antiwar activist protesting U.S. policy, critics believed her actions crossed the line into giving aid and comfort to America’s enemy during wartime. Decades later, the anger and controversy surrounding “Hanoi Jane” still remain powerful for many who served, suffered, or lost loved ones during the Vietnam War. Whatever one’s political views may be, the experiences of POWs and veterans deserve to be remembered and treated with respect.

@MayorFrey Dude it’s MEMORIAL DAY. What’s the matter with you?!?

Today, we remember George Floyd, who was murdered by a former Minneapolis police officer six years ago.   That moment changed our city forever.

Yeeees the algo is undefeated

I am deeply grateful for those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for this great Nation and People. I’m equally humbled before the many families who sent their own to war knowing they may not come back home. Thank you.

We remember and honor all those who have bravely served and fought for our country this Memorial Day.

@ThisDayInMETAL Love this album

May 25th 1993 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐚𝐱 released “Sound Of White Noise” — the band’s first album with vocalist John Bush and a major evolution in their sound. Featuring tracks like “Only” and “Black Lodge,” the album helped redefine Anthrax in the ‘90s while still keeping their heavy edge intact. What’s your favorite song from “Sound Of White Noise” and where does it rank in Anthrax’s catalog for you? #Anthrax #SoundOfWhiteNoise #JohnBush #HeavyMetal #Metal
