Burt Lancaster was born OTD in 1913.
Burt's final movie performance was Field of Dreams (1989). He appears for about 9 minutes but he sells every second. In this scene he tansforms Phil Alden Robinson's words into poetry. It's a fitting end, to a beautiful career.

I would like to use Bluesky. They've done a bunch of seriously interesting technical work on moderation and ranking that I truly admire, and I've got lots of friends there who really enjoy it.

This music could heal the world!!!!! . If we could all come together the way this music comes together, notes and tones in harmony, no bias, celebrating our differences and co-creating in service of the greater good. What if Beethoven was from the Congo? What would that sound and feel like? Would we still respect his music as much? What about including the African 6/8 rhythm and the proto blues inflections of New Orleans Congo square lineage? I love this track and video so much , thank you Alan Ferguson for blessing us by capturing this performance through your magical lens. Go experience this music and watch was we extend the of culture lineage of humanity and create music that is an allegory for the ideal state of the world ♥️ 5th symphony theme in Congo Square out now 🥹

@GoAngelo A fair assessment of the distinction between noise and real news…

Plastic cookware should not be used. Period. Especially BLACK PLASTIC cookware, that often mixes in toxic recycled electronic waste materials. DISPOSE OF ALL PLASTIC COOKWARE, especially if black colored plastic ones. Pass it on to your family.

Elton has never performed this version since the Princess' funeral.

Here's a breathing exercise for you to try. When you are relaxing at night, this breathing exercise can help put you into the parasympathetic drive of rest and digest. Have a good night. Wishing you sound sleep and sweet dreams. #goodnight #GoodNightTwitterWorld #sleep

Love deepens with time, bringing both beauty and delicate insecurities. Singing these truths as a married couple is brutally sweet—and we’re excited to share more. The Monster Deluxe Edition is out Friday!

Boston’s shape has dramatically evolved since its founding. When established in 1630, Boston was a small 800-acre peninsula called Shawmut, connected to the mainland by a narrow strip of land. Over the next few centuries, ambitious land reclamation projects nearly tripled its size, using soil from the city’s own hills and even debris from construction projects. The Back Bay area, for example, was once underwater and became one of the last major infill projects in the late 19th century. Today, Boston’s reclaimed land comprises over 5,000 acres, reshaping the city's coastline
