The US House has voted to pass a measure to enact year-round Daylight Saving Time across the country, springing Congress forward into an issue that has long stumped lawmakers and spurred impassioned pleas by parents, farmers and others with sharply divergent views. It will now head to the Senate for approval before going to the president for his signature — though its chances in the upper chamber remain unclear. https://t.co/PKUPWY7889

They (@MLB) can’t screw this up, right?

Look at the impact @NBA players had on the @Olympics over the last 30 years!

MLB stars playing for their countries would be incredible.

The @NFL realizes it, that’s why it’s going to be great to watch Flag Football in LA2028.

INCEPTION was released 16 years ago today.

Christopher Nolan spent 10 years writing the script, waiting until visual effects had advanced enough to convincingly bring its dream worlds to life. The finished film went on to redefine blockbuster sci-fi

[Fletcher Mackel @FletcherWDSU]

One of my top 10 all-time favorite movies 🎥 and in my opinion (I know many will disagree) Christopher Nolan’s best film.
