The first time I visited Kennedy Space Center, my brother & I drove across FL during his spring break specifically so I could frolic in the rocket garden & geek out over every exhibit and piece of space memoribilia. I never dreamed I'd be here almost 20 years later, working a mission launch. 🥹🚀☀️

I can't wait for the Eras Tour behind the scenes documentary!

I am a serious production nerd and I really want to see both the technical and creative work that went into such an impressive, immersive stage show. Also dancing 💃🏻🕺🏻 and all the costumes!

From daylight to midnight 🌅🫶🏻🌌

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

OBAMA: “Better’s good… we’re not gonna get to perfect. Do I think single-payer with no profit motive would’ve been smarter? Absolutely.”

President Obama tells Maron the ACA was a compromise because he didn’t have the votes for what he really wanted. #MedicareForAll

So proud of IMAP - all 10 instruments are now powered up & looking great. The vibration of launch shakes everything inside the rocket like crazy, which is why they perform vibration/shock testing + spin testing in the lab. 🚀✨🙌🏻

Go, little spacecraft baby, go! 🥹💜

She was a trad wife champion before we even had that phrasing in mainstream culture. I always turned her book around when I saw it in a bookstore or put Betty Friedan over it 😂

Not surprised Flanagan's conservative drivel has found a place in MAGA America. Disgusting but unsurprising.

Amy Imhoff @amyimhoff1701.bsky.social · 2d

Caitlin Flanagan is an anti-feminist nutcase. She wrote a book years ago saying women are responsible for giving their husbands sex and whatever else they want, on demand, because that is part of marriage. Also thinks women shouldn't work outside the home while she...works outside the home.

I really liked the first couple seasons of Sherlock but the writing got weird. A shame. Why does he resent the audience, do you think?

This show is very ridiculous & I have no idea why the characters are acting so insane. Other than to maybe prove Moffat's point that everyone is bad??

Republicans will do anything to put more money in their pockets at the expense of people, animals, and the environment.

We are watching Inside Man on Netflix, starring Stanley Tucci and David Tennant, in two separate but converging storylines. Stephen Moffat wrote & directed.

It is...not good. Nothing is believable. David Tennant's charcter is incredibly stupid. Like...what is even going on 😂

Chris Murphy: "Republicans are boycotting negotiations to reopen the govt bc they're desperate to raise premiums on people by 75% in order to finance their tax cut for the wealthy. The other reason House isn't in town? They're about to have enough votes to mandate the release of the Epstein files."

SMiller being a teeny tiny gross little gnome is so not surprising. He is overcompensating for the teeny tiny appendage between his legs by ruining as many lives as possible with fascism.

The difference between a short king & an angry short man is approx 1 billion miles - don't be that guy.
