Forget "politics." Cultivating literacy --independent literacy, the ability to read and think and write and do it all in your own head and with your own two hands, so to speak -- is the great radical act now.
Be a radical.

The frustrating thing about this is it robs anyone who is not reflexively hostile to this President, or who support the war aims, even a single day just to feel proud of our military’s extraordinary competence. Unnecessary, undisciplined, and childish.

@rpondiscio I feel better now about the missing “n” in “then” I somehow missed on my last edit.

@asymmetricinfo There’s “some are gonna slip through” (I agree) and there’s “stuff a reasonably bright middle schooler would catch.”

A thing I will never convince non-journalists of--but that every journalist knows in their bones--is that it's harder to spot mistakes like this than you think. We get most of them. But even with multiple layers of protection, some are gonna slip through.

There are tired copy editors who work really really hard and make one innocent and mortifying mistake that becomes grist for the social media gumball machine

I love this answer!! I’m still proud of this historic moment, but I respect you even more for saying this. Racism dies when we can simply recognize Black excellence as just excellence.
RedWave Press@RedWavePress
NASA pilot Victor Glover CLAPS back after being asked what it means to be the first black man to visit the moon: “It’s the story of humanity, not black history, not women’s history, but that it becomes human history.” “I also HOPE we are pushing the other direction that one day we don’t have to talk about these first. That one day, this is just—and listen to this—that this is the human history.”

My sons, watching Artemis II launch from their front yard in Orlando.

“Why are we doing a rocket launch?”😂

Best amateur airborne footage I've seen so far of yesterday's Artemis II launch. Stay for the zoom in where you can clearly see Artemis 👍

@FactsAboutTexas That would have to be my hometown of Pittsburg.

Wish I had a ground crew for technical issues.

JUST IN: Artemis II crew experiences issues with Microsoft Outlook on their way to the Moon, asks ground crew for assistance.
English
Kind of incongruous that we haven’t been back to the moon in half a century. As if Lindbergh has flown to Paris in 1927 and no one did again until the 1970s.

Most places have sports on for happy hour - not Houston, not today. The people who have dedicated huge portions of their lives, who know the crew, the ops teams, the trainers, the engineers - the thousands of people who are their next door neighbors, their friends - for us it’s personal. Every single step, from ignition, to SRB separation, to max Q, to MECO, we cheer and we pray for the next step. Godspeed @Astro_Reid
@AstroVicGlover @Astro_Christina and @Astro_Jeremy @NASAArtemis!! Take our hopes and dreams with you as fuel to defy the impossible, get home safe, and take the next huge leap in making humanity’s place in the stars. If you aren’t following NASA for the next 10 days - you probably shouldn’t follow me - this is everything. LET’S GOOOOO!!!!!!

Why are you here?
"We're going back to the fucking moon, that's why."
The kids are ok.

Space flight is great because they let the nerds take over the cable broadcasts for a few hours and it’s just so much more informative than watching people argue at a desk

“We do these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard.”
Godspeed, Artemis II.
