@gettagripfolks Me too. It still annoys me that we didn’t have a permanent base on the Moon from the 1970s.
Am a child who was inspired by 2001: a Space Odyssey and the other books in the series.
Staying up to watch the #Artemisll#moon launch just as l stayed up to watch #Apollo11 land and Neil Armstrong walk on the moon in 1969. That seemed unbelievable. Looking up at the moon and knowing the astronauts were there.
An exciting discovery from Scotland - this 1800-year-old slice of pizza was recently unearthed in the ruins of a broch. The dish was introduced to the region c. AD 83 by the Romans. Fragments of oil jars found nearby suggest that the Picts deep fried rather than baked their pizza.
Actor John Lithgow reads a poem from his book "Trumpty Dumpty Wanted a Crown" in honor of No Kings Day
Trumpty Dumpty wanted a crown
To make sure he would never have to step down
He wanted a robe made of ermine and velvet
The constitution, he wanted to shelve it
With impeachment awash his ambition had grown
He wanted an orb, a sceptre, a throne
Six royal palaces, six royal carriages
A church dispensation for six royal marriages
Courtiers installed on his own supreme court
And royal beheadings if only for sport
He craved the occasional royal procession
And gasped the eventual royal succession
Trumpty Dumpty gets his way
Unless the public has something to say
If we let him have all of his favourite things
We'll have to endure the divine right of king
My 93 year old grandma just got on a plane from Oklahoma to Florida so she can watch her grandsons' (plural) launch their Moon rocket. Everyone please wish her a safe flight.
It’s that time of year - folks asking us about #bumblebees - WHY THEY’RE SEEING THEM ON THE GROUND - so here’s a thread to explain.
Please #retweet!
Every queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist & produce queen #bees for next year!
So important to #share!

For its relatively small territory England has 4 far right wing parties - Conservative Party, Reform, Britain First and now Resstore Britain.
That’s 4 far right fashist parties in the small tiny territory of England.
For comparison - in Bulgaria we don’t have a Nazi party
@Hplays_piano When I wake up in the middle of the night having swallowed a hair! Have to remind myself to breathe in deeply before trying to cough up the offending object.
And a reminder that it’s time to go to the hairdresser again!
• Harry Kane was known as a goalscorer, but not yet so much as a playmaker [before his move to Bayern]. Or is that a misconception?
Hoeneß: "He learned that here. He was always in the box."
• But he also played as a number 6 and 10 in his youth..
Hoeneß: "Okay, you're the experts on that. But I can only say one thing: He discovered that running element to his game under Vincent Kompany. He's in his own box for every set piece. And the passes! He plays 70-meter passes to Olise from a standing position , it's incredible. And above all, he's such a great character. Such a role model for our young players; they look up to him in the dressing room. We can only be proud to have him in our team."

@DYSONlife4real I’d like to disagree, but I’ve been so ill! Ooh, it really was awful…still, I’ll keep battling through like the hero I am!
Ha ha! Get better soon, both of you!
Ok here me out on this
Men get sick worse than women
Me and my husband have both had the same sickness bug but he’s so much worse than me apparently and my god he’s been so grumpy unlike me
Man flu vibes…….
@kazzaloveslife No, because if I did here in NL I’d be doing it all the time. We have about four living, noisily, close to our house in the middle of our estate. They are very common and don’t expect to be coddled.
I do feed them, though, as I do all my avian friends.
@MikeLevin@LoziCamp Just spray everything with his urine, dog marking as many less intelligent creatures do.
It will do everything to counter his insecurity, and the obvious fact that he never received a hug from his awful father.
Every American who pulls a dollar from their wallet will soon see Donald Trump’s name on it.
He’s the first sitting president in history to put his signature on U.S. currency.
A desperate, insecure man branding everything in sight because he knows history won’t remember him kindly on its own. It’s pathetic.
What history will remember is what he destroyed to feel significant and the people who let him.
