May sound silly but this kinda stuff (meeting and taking care of fans) will always be the best part of fame. Thanks for being awesome, Carol! Make sure you tell all your friends how mean, cold and unkind #BlackAdam really is in person 😉 Great to meet you 👊🏾

Only thing more remarkable than DOJ not leaking the list is that no one in the media cares. Doesn’t that seem odd?

Technology makes you closer to persons far from you but takes you away from those sitting right next to you. I’m glad I grew up playing outside and visiting my grandparents in Sweden instead of texting them in Sweden.

On this day in 1933, my beloved USS Macon took her first flight in Akron. I had not yet met her, but I yearned for her.

One Ukrainian War Casualty: The World’s Largest Airplane (Published 2022)

Mriya, the world’s largest aircraft, was destroyed in a pivotal battle at the start of the war. It was a beloved symbol for all of Ukraine but perhaps no one misses it more than its first pilot.

SFTMA told me it's going to take 30+ months to get a speed bump installed on my street IF my application is approved. So, I bought one on Amazon for $140, including the masonry bolts!😀 You guys. It works.

Today marks 800 days of house arrest for a "crime" where the longest previous sentence was 90 days. Feeling vulnerable, but also strong and hopeful. 🙏❤️
