My favorite thing about Apple Maps is the crazy detail around road markings. I have gripes about things, but this is awesome.

Did we order the Saquon Broccoli? Indeed. Will report back later.

Philly sunset from the 50th floor.
A view of several Philadelphia skyscrapers with a sunset sky behind them. The photo is taken from the 50th floor and is taller than many buildings in the distance.

I saw the subway version of this ad blew up on here last week, but the mega billboard version is just extra.
A giant billboard in Philadelphia proclaims: "STDs are Timeless" and features an older couple kissing in front of a sunset.

It's been great. I have two sets of wheels for it, depending on what I'm going.
A custom steel road bike frame painted in a purple to hot pink fade sits on carbon wheels and has gray handlebar tape. It stands on rock climbing mats in green, blue, and red and leans against an indoor rock climbing wall.

Post a picture you took (no description) to bring some zen to the timeline.
Entrance to a slot canyon in Arizona. The sandstone is reddish orange and the layers are slanted toward the ground moving away from the camera. A narrow path weaves between two curving walls. The sky is bright blue and cloudless

Went to Michigan this summer and had a great time. The biggest takeaway was that Michigan needs better tourism advertising.
Cyan blue water of a Great Lake meets the steep dunes and grasslands under a light blue sky. The dunes curve off into the distance. A small light sits in the of a stone jetty. The water is green blue and clear; you can see the bottom probably 15 feet down.

Good morning Philly.
Philadelphia skyscrapers including the Comcast Center and One Liberty Place. Photo taken from above. Cars and people line the streets under a blue-gray sky. In the reflection of the mirrored Comcast Center you can see the Fred DiBona Jr. tower.

Four musicians performing on stage. The lighting is purple and blue and the lead singer is playing a red guitar.

My tween son will play this while on a call with friends and also watching YouTube on a second screen. These kids can't be sensory overloaded.

If you have teens or tweens interested in STEM you should get them into combat robotics. It's relatively cheap and awesome and I can't wait to get more young people involved. #stem
