For all its faults, Western Christian culture is still worth defending.

Leah Farrow’s son, Soren, who is autistic, has a passion for ringing doorbells. She hoped to plan something special for his 11th birthday, but it would require some buy in from her neighbors in Huntsville, Alabama. Their response blew her away. @SteveHartmanCBS is On the Road.

Gene Kelly didn’t want to sing “Singin’ in the Rain” on The Muppet Show.
Kermit took that as a challenge and made it the plot, coaxing him into it anyway.
It was the last episode they ever filmed, and the last time Gene performed it.
A poignant goodbye to the song and The Muppets

"Because of mama, I've always tried to have a good heart." ❤️

This story has me in tears. A young Dolly Parton saw her mama crying and wanted to give her the little present she had just been given.😭

Jo Nagai was raising swallowtail butterflies at his home in Kobe, Japan, when he noticed something odd. The ones he had looked after as caterpillars seemed to recognize him. Wild butterflies fled. His didn't.
He was in second grade. He wrote a four-page letter to Dr. Martha Weiss, an entomologist at Georgetown University who had studied whether moths could retain memories through metamorphosis. He asked if she could help him design a version of her experiment for butterflies.
She said yes.
Using a muscle therapy device, Jo trained caterpillars to associate the scent of lavender with a mild vibration. When the caterpillars became butterflies, 70 per cent of them still avoided the lavender. Their brains had been completely rebuilt during metamorphosis. The memory survived anyway.
Then he bred them.
The offspring, which had never been trained, also avoided lavender. So did their grandchildren. Without ever experiencing the vibration, two generations of butterflies inherited an aversion to a scent their grandmother had been taught to fear.
Jo documented it all in a 33-page research paper and presented his findings at the International Congress of Entomology in Kobe in 2024. He was 10.
A second grader wrote a letter to a Georgetown professor, and together they found evidence that butterflies can pass memories down through generations.

40 years ago today... it was the Rovers fire in #Corrie! 🔥

Proper landmark episode this one, ever so dramatic with Bet's chilling screams and being sick upstairs. Superb.
