Congrats to the @Starlink engineering & production teams on excellent work!
It was great to see everyone when I walked the production line in Redmond on Wednesday 🖤✨
The Iliad and Odyssey are the only nearly complete survivors of the Epic Cycle, an 8 part collection of ancient Greek epics that once told the full mythological story of the Trojan War.
Homer’s poems cover only a small portion of this larger saga, with the Iliad focusing on a brief period near the end of the war and the Odyssey detailing Odysseus’ return home.
The other lost epics, including the Cypria, Aethiopis, Little Iliad, Iliou Persis, Nostoi, and Telegony, expanded the narrative to include the origins of the war, Achilles’ later battles, the fall of Troy, the Greek heroes’ returns, and Odysseus’ final fate.
Though these poems were once foundational to Greek literary culture, they were gradually lost as manuscript traditions declined, leaving behind only fragments, summaries, and references from later classical writers.

Great news! Now it is time to enforce the talking filibuster.
The filibuster rule is meant to allow senators to present their arguments before a bill is passed.
It is NOT intended to require 60 votes to pass anything at all!
STOP THE ABUSE OF THE FILIBUSTER NOW.
Either senators must talk or they must pass the bill to SAVE AMERICA!
I’ll say it again, when there’s a piece of legislation that 80% of America agrees on and the leader of the senate is trying to tell you that he can’t get the majority party(95% of whom approve) to solidify 50 votes, you aren’t being represented, you are being ruled.
