Still thinking about this one 🫶
Nothing but love at our Restaurant Pop-Up with After Ours.
Shoutout to Rip City for showing up to celebrate community and culture.
I “Love” Justice Neil Gorsuch! He’s a really smart and good man, but he voted against me, and our Country, on Tariffs, a devastating move. How do I reconcile this? So bad, and hurtful to our Country. I have, likewise, always liked and respected Amy Coney Barrett, but the same thing with her. They were appointed by me, and yet have hurt our Country so badly! I do not believe they meant to do so, but their decision on Tariffs cost the United States 159 Billion Dollars that we have to pay back to enemies, and people, companies, and Countries, that have been ripping us off for years. It’s hardly believable! They could have solved that situation with a “tiny” sentence, “Any money paid by others to the United States does not have to be paid back.” Why wouldn’t they have done so? With certain Republican Nominated Justices that we have on the Supreme Court, the Democrats don’t really need to “PACK THE COURT” any longer. In fact, I should be the one wanting to PACK THE COURT! I’m working so hard to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and then people that I appointed have shown so little respect to our Country, and its people. What is the reason for this? They have to do the right thing, but it’s really OK for them to be loyal to the person that appointed them to “almost” the highest position in the land, that is, a Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Democrat Justices always remain true to the people that honored them for that very special Nomination. They don’t waver, no matter how good or bad a case may be, but Republican Justices often go out of their way to oppose me, because they want to show how “independent” or, “above it all,” they are. I got elected in a Landslide, including winning the Popular Vote, all seven Swing States, an Electoral College “clobbering,” and all U.S. Counties, by 86%, 2,750 to 525. I choose people to help our Country, not to hurt it, and now, based on what I witnessed recently by being the first President in History to attend a Supreme Court session (Which fact was not even recognized or acknowledged, out of respect for the position of President, by the Court — Something which did not go unnoticed by the Fake News Media!), they will be ruling against us on Birthright Citizenship, making us the only Country in the World that practices this unsustainable, unsafe, and incredibly costly DISASTER. I don’t want loyalty, but I do want and expect it for our Country. Yes, I have another way of doing Tariffs, but it is far slower, and more laborious than what was just determined, in a close decision, to be “illegal” or “unconstitutional,” with three powerful, and highly accurate, dissents! Well, maybe Neil, and Amy, just had a really bad day, but our Country can only handle so many decisions of that magnitude before it breaks down, and cracks!!! Sometimes decisions have to be allowed to use Good, Strong, Common Sense as a guide. A negative ruling on Birthright Citizenship, on top of the recent Supreme Court Tariff catastrophe, is not Economically sustainable for the United States of America! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Everyone talks about AI enabling the "one-person Hollywood studio." I spent the last two months putting that to the test.
The result? A full, 2+ hour feature film.
Introducing "The Four Classics." Using
@suno,
@soraofficialapp ,
@grok Imagine 1.0, and Genie 3 by
@GoogleLabs , I adapted China’s greatest literary epics into a sprawling, cyberpunk hip-hop opera.
Grab some popcorn. Welcome to the future of AI film production. 🍿🎥

It is with great sadness that Jill and I learned of the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis. He was unlike any who came before him. Pope Francis will be remembered as one of the most consequential leaders of our time and I am better for having known him. For decades, he served the most vulnerable across Argentina and his mission of serving the poor never ceased. As Pope, he was a loving pastor and challenging teacher who reached out to different faiths. He commanded us to fight for peace and protect our planet from a climate crisis. He advocated for the voiceless and powerless. He made all feel welcome and seen by the Church. He promoted equity and an end to poverty and suffering across the globe. And above all, he was a Pope for everyone. He was the People's Pope - a light of faith, hope, and love.

A Trip to the Planets: Willy Ley Narrates the Solar System in a 1963 Educational Film
In 1963, as the Space Race gained momentum, a short educational film brought the solar system into American classrooms.
A Trip to the Planets, a 15-minute production from Encyclopedia Britannica Films, was narrated by Willy Ley.
I was in an AV department at my school when I first discovered this film and watched it frequently. It helped cement my love for educational films and emotional guidance films. Today I own one of the largest private collections with 100s of films, many never digitized.
This film used animation and model photography to guide students on an imaginative journey through the planets, their sizes, distances, and the forces that govern the solar system.
Willy Ley was already a leading voice in popular science by this time. A pioneer from Germany’s early rocketry movement and consultant on the 1929 film Woman in the Moon, he had written influential books such as The Conquest of Space with Chesley Bonestell.
Ley in more recent history is labeled a collaborative part of the German government during World War II, he was not.
He appeared in Disney’s “Man in Space” television specials and wrote regularly for science fiction magazines.
His calm, knowledgeable style made complex topics accessible, which is why the film makers chose him to narrate this classroom short.
The film presented basic astronomy concepts in an engaging way. It explained planetary orbits, relative sizes and distances from the Sun, and the role of asteroids and meteors.
Animation illustrated gravitational forces and motion, while models helped viewers picture the planets themselves. The “trip” framing turned a science lesson into a visual adventure suitable for elementary and middle school students. It served both as an introduction for beginners and a refresher for those who had studied the topic before.
This production arrived at a key moment. After Sputnik and President Kennedy’s Moon goal, schools needed materials that built scientific literacy and excitement.
A Trip to the Planets fit perfectly into astronomy units. Ley’s narration added warmth and authority, making the solar system feel real and reachable rather than abstract.
Today the film is largely forgotten. Physical copies are rare, and online versions have mostly disappeared. Yet it played a quiet but real role in science education.
Before spacecraft sent back detailed images of other worlds, films like this helped students visualize the planets through careful models and clear explanation.
It carried forward the same spirit Ley had promoted for decades: that understanding the solar system was the first step toward exploring it.
A Trip to the Planets captures a specific era in science communication. It helped an entire generation look upward with curiosity and confidence.
In an age of high-resolution mission imagery, the film remains a reminder of how far we have come and how we first learned to see the planets clearly.
It also shows how far we have drifted from teaching wonderment and curiosity. Nothing has replaced these films and this path has been abandoned.
