Do you remember the famous #Earthrise photo from #Apollo8? On Christmas Eve in 1968, William Anders turned his camera toward Earth and captured the legendary photo. It showed humans a new perspective, with the moon in the foreground and Earth floating in distant space. 🌎🚀🔭📸

I’m absolutely heartbroken 😢

It's with heavy hearts that we share that Claude, our beloved albino alligator, has passed away at the age of 30. Claude brought joy to millions of people at the Academy and across the world during his 17 year tenure. We will miss him dearly. 🤍

I finally finished Tears of the Kingdom! Sorry it took me… uh… two years to find you, Zelda. In my defense, I wanted to find every well on the continent.

DS9 scene. Rom is a Ferengi hero who has a large bald head and giant ears and lobes that sort of connect to make a unibrow and a ribbed pine cone looking nose. He's wearing a jacket that looks like those lick and stick backsplash tiles you can get at Lowe's. He's pictured here standing in a corridor, talking to someone and holding/reading a PADD. Closed caption reads, "Workers of the world unite. You have nothing to lose but your chains." Alt in pic 1 Happy Labor Day

My Chemical Romance is going to be my whole personality for the foreseeable future. Sorry in advance to anyone who met me after about 2011.

The criminal and the crime.
A black mini labradoodle with a white patch on her chest sits on a chair with her front paws crossed. She has a look in her eyes that says “I’m too cute to be guilty!” There’s a chewed-up plastic fork on the chair in front of her. Ripped up paper recycling spread across the hardwood floor in the foreground. An overturned recycling bin in the background
