Insane POV of the next-gen Tesla Roadster doing a kickflip, going up the ramp and 0-60 mph test.
That shot of the rear rocket thrusters in the first clip looks awesome.

Public Service Announcement:
We are excited with @McDonalds hot apple pie announcement - a true throwback to our childhood and teenage years.
We also want to remind everyone that petroleum-based ointments -- primarily plain petroleum jelly (petrolatum)
- are best and most commonly recommended for minor (first-degree) burns.
We look forward to this partnership.

🇫🇷🎻🏰 INSOLITE | Ce groupe normand de musique médiévale reprend « Beat It » de Michael Jackson avec des instruments d’époque. Le résultat est bluffant : on a l’impression d’entendre un tube joué dans une taverne du XIVe siècle. 😂

🚨 WOW! Dr. ALVEDA KING just said it PERFECTLY on Capitol Hill
"I still have a dream. I dream that one day we will move beyond black power and white power and embrace GOD'S power and human dignity!"
"I reject the notion that Americans who hold traditional Christian beliefs should be treated as THREATS or TERRORISTS simply because we disagree with a prevailing political thought!" 🙏🏻
"I dream that Americans will one day see each other, not as enemies, but as neighbors. I dream that we will hear each other, see each other, and recognize that every human life has value from the womb to the tomb and beyond."
"We are as scripture teaches, one blood, one human race. And if we remember that truth, we can build a future worthy of the sacrifices made by those who came before us."
"We must speak out for truth and against the forces that would manufacture hate, fear, division, and violence simply to line their pockets and further their political ambitions."
"God bless America, God bless you!"
🇺🇸🇺🇸👏🏻

Un dato curioso:
Orión tardó 42:50 minutos en cruzar el lado oculto de la luna.
The Dark Side of the Moon dura exactamente 42:50 minutos.

Denver just hit 60° for the 40th time this winter season (since Dec. 1).
That means 45% of our winter days have been 60°+.
Also by far Denver’s most 60°+ winter days on record. Old record: 34 days, 1980-81.

SpaceX's LR 11000 crane was recently moved over to the Air Separation Unit area for its upcoming work. This evening, the boom was raised, and is likely now ready to hit the ground running in the morning (so to speak)!

Pot might make you dumber. But 1) I'm for freedom, and 2) pot businesses are already operating so this would allow them to have bank accounts and pay less in income taxes, the latter of which I'd think a conservative like you would support, and 3) it will allow more scientific study of potential medical benefits of non-mind-altering components of marijuana.
Lots of things can be bad for you. Should government ban them all? I guess this is the difference between a conservative and a libertarian, eh Jeff?
p.s. For those who don't know this (and I assume most people wouldn't), I've never tried pot or any other illegal drug or even a cigarette. I'm not arguing this from the perspective of someone who has a vested interest in marijuana businesses.

Muhammad Ali International Airport in Louisville, Kentucky is currently closed to arriving and departing flights, following the crash of (UPS2976), a McDonnell Douglas MD-11 being operated as a cargo plane by UPS Airlines that had just taken-off from the UPS Worldport in Louisville. A massive fire is currently burning near the airport — engulfing several nearby buildings — with a shelter-in-place order having been issued for a five-mile radius around Muhammad Ali.
