Goosebumps! People often ask, is Shakespeare still relevant? Here is a great example, from the Steven Colbert Show, in which Sir Ian McKellen delivers an extraordinary speech. Shakespeare’s words are timeless, urgent and important.

I tell the kids that if they ever get lost to just find an Amazon truck and follow it because there's a pretty good chance it's coming to our house.

Tonight I captured comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) making a dramatic appearance over the Golden Gate Bridge as seen from Treasure Island. Early on, it looked like the weather wouldn’t be in our favor, but luckily, the fog gave way just in time. @sfchronicle
