Please share!! Bonnaroo to me is the devils playground. 🚨 🚨 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 Trevor Lines went missing from his Air BNB in Nashville, TN yesterday morning. He was with a group of friends on their way to music festival Bonnaroo in Manchester, TN. He was in bed at 6am but when his friends woke up at around 9-9:30am Trevor was gone. He left his phone, his bag, and other items behind. Please pray for us to find Trevor safe.

Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more. Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged. Here's what happened: Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it." And the exact emails are now PUBLIC. Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem. The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately." Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call. Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price. Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed. Same playbook with Hanes: Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased." Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins. But it gets even worse... Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site. Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing. They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS. The mechanism is simple but terrifying: If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers. Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings." Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products. Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform. So turns out, you were never comparison shopping. You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors. "Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable." 3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on. This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat. And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE. "Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.

Only one chance in this lifetime… Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him. I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.

A very special visitor came to Ames — the designer of the Artemis II Moon mascot, “Rise.” We welcomed Lucas Ye and his family, who joined us as we watched the Artemis II crew return back to Earth after successfully flying around the Moon. His zero gravity indicator was selected from thousands of submissions from over 50 countries. His design was inspired by the iconic Earthrise moment from the Apollo 8 mission. Congratulations again to Lucas!

One last look at Earth before we reach the Moon. This view of the Earth was captured on April 5, the fourth day of the Artemis II mission, from inside the Orion spacecraft. The four astronauts will reach their closest approach of the Moon tomorrow, April 6.

The cameras caught her sleeping. The critics called it rude. The truth was a secret she hadn't told a soul. The year was 1981. It was November, just four months after the "Wedding of the Century." Diana, the new Princess of Wales, was seated at the Victoria and Albert Museum for the "Splendours of the Gonzaga" exhibition. It was a black-tie gala. The atmosphere was stiff, the speeches were long, and the protocol was rigid: Sit up straight. Smile. Be perfect. But Diana wasn't perfect. She was exhausted. In a breach of royal etiquette that shocked the press, her head dipped. Her eyes closed. For a brief, unguarded moment, the Princess of Wales was fast asleep in her chair while Prince Charles sat attentively beside her. The tabloids went wild. Was she bored? Was she disrespectful? Was the marriage already in trouble? The media analyzed the image as a sign of her immaturity. They called her the "Sleeping Beauty," but the tone wasn't entirely kind. They saw a girl who couldn't handle the job. But they didn't know the untold truth. Diana wasn't bored. She was pregnant. She was 20 years old, carrying the future King of England Prince William in her womb. She was battling the crushing fatigue of the first trimester, all while navigating a life where her every blink was photographed and critiqued. She hadn't announced the pregnancy yet. She was suffering in silence, trying to hold up the weight of the monarchy while her body was demanding rest. That photograph didn't show a failure of duty. It showed the limitations of being human. In the rigid environment of the palace, where emotions were suppressed and appearances were everything, Diana’s moment of sleep was accidentally revolutionary. It peeled back the curtain. It showed the world that beneath the tiara and the designer gown was just a young woman, tired and overwhelmed, doing her best to adjust to a life that allowed for no errors. That moment marked the beginning of her legacy as the "People's Princess." While the institution wanted a statue, the public fell in love with the human. They saw themselves in her exhaustion. They saw the reality of motherhood clashing with the fantasy of royalty. The child she was carrying would grow up to be a man who prioritized mental health and openness traits he inherited from the mother who couldn't stay awake at a museum. Diana taught us that perfection is a myth. The crown is heavy. But the woman wearing it was always stronger than the gold.
