Absolutely incredible.
NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.
Watch with sound on.
4 runners seen side by side running down the middle of the road. The road is quiet and safe because it is in a low traffic neighbourhood

‘Quality of life’ isn’t a big house, luxury goods or a fancy car. It’s being able to cycle your kids on safe streets or run side by side down peaceful roads with your friends. Everyone can & should have this.
Over 3/4 of new and used 🚗 buyers in the U.S. live in 🏡. Most 🇺🇸 drive <40 Mi a day, and 50-250 Mi on road trips.
An EV is a better - and cheaper - option for most car buyers and a simple 🏡 🔌 is enough 🔋 🚗.
For those in 🏢 many cities and states have grants for EV chargers, ask your leasing office!
We Deserve Better Than This….
The trip continues, today's DCFC report - zero issues, of course, and more delight - "I forgot I just plug in at EVgo and it just starts charging" (yesterday was EA).
YUP, it's that easy, Today, Now!
So many of the FUD points about EVs revolve around old tropes and laggard automakers.
Just 🔌&⚡️🔋
Sorry that you are going through this. It sounds familiar.

1. In a landmark ruling, the Montana Supreme Court has declared that the constitution, one of the most progressive in the nation, entirely protects transgender people.
The ruling is even insulated from SCOTUS decisions, due to how state constitutions work.

Yep, and this is squarely on his chosen “excursion”.
For the life of me, I can’t figure out why Melania Trump just dropped a full White House statement denying she was ever friends with Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell…
Completely out of nowhere.
Makes you wonder what she’s trying to get ahead of, doesn’t it? 😏
New laws in 10+ states echo the "Safer" Kentucky Act, which lets property owners use deadly force against people for trespassing. These cruel laws target homeless people while doing nothing to address homelessness. They lead to more arrests & even murders of our unhoused neighbors. buff.ly/AM93qAm
The 28th Virginia battle flag is a Confederate battle flag that belonged to the 28th Virginia Infantry Regiment. Captured by the 1st Minnesota Infantry Regiment at the Battle of Gettysburg, the flag was brought to Minnesota and exhibited at the state's capitol for several years before passing into the permanent collection of the Minnesota Historical Society after 1896 where it has remained since.
Happy Confederate Surrender Day from Minnesota where we still have your goddamn flag and we’re not giving it up.

The white flag, aka the official flag of the Confederacy
Wishing you and yours a very merry Confederate Surrender Day.

The famous Andor line is that "tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle." Here is a perfect example of that through malicious compliance: Idaho forced the city of Boise to remove its Pride flags. So the city painted rainbows everywhere else.
One problem with these kinds of images is that they are built by AI to include elements that really don’t come together in real images. Graphic artists create these kinds of things too, or used to, before AI. Those graphic artists could make more discerning decisions, whether the image makes sense.

And just like that, my email has another example of AI Tacoma, sent by a friend yesterday:
It’s on rollers.
Well played, sir.
