Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.
Miss Piggy and Dolly Parton in fancy dresses posing together photo of Tim Curry surrounded by muppets, smiling for a photo. A quote from curry is added “it didn’t go very well. It didn’t survive the shoot. She felt I wasn’t being faithful to her” it’s him discussing his ill fated affair with miss piggy

EMPIRE DINER, NYC, 1977 📷 Ron Bruguiere
1977 photograph of the Empire Diner in Chelsea, NYC was taken by the street and architectural photographer Ron Bruguiere. Captured shortly after the diner's famous 1976 visual transformation. Bruguiere emphasized the gleaming chrome detailing, geometric design, and the prominent "EAT" stencil painted on the adjoining building facade. Historical Context: The image perfectly illustrates the atmospheric, noir aesthetic of Manhattan's West Side during the late 1970s.

James Doohan wasn’t just Montgomery "Scotty" Scott, he wasa Canadian who served his country and landed on the beaches of Normandy on D-Day. Then he turned to acting, was trained by Lorne Greene and even helped develop the Klingon language. This is his story. 📸 NBC 🧵 1/12
James Doohan as Scotty sits at a control console aboard the USS Enterprise, wearing a red Starfleet uniform with a black collar and a delta insignia on his chest. He leans slightly forward with one hand resting on the console, his dark hair neatly combed to the side. Behind him are colorful control panels and futuristic set walls characteristic of the original Star Trek series bridge.

Jun 5th 1985 - #FerrisBueller took his day off....ish. The baseball game took place on this day (t.co/CTFxoFQbjk) However, the parade takes place mid Sept (t.co/shpt8VukuI) & script hints it takes place in April 📽️📅 Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
3 Screenshots from the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" (1986): First, Ferris, Sloane, and Cameron stand confidently with arms crossed in an art museum, framed by American-themed paintings behind them. Second, Ferris and Cameron sit in the stands at a baseball game, laughing and goofing off, with Ferris about to catch a foul ball. Third, the trio stands solemnly on a glass balcony, looking down in shock and concern, with Cameron holding his head in distress.

Artemis II Return
NASA's Orion spacecraft carrying Artemis II Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, and Mission Specialist Christina Koch from NASA, along with Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen from the CSA (Canadian Space Agency), splashes down in the Pacific Ocean near San Diego, California, at 5:07 p.m. PDT, (8:07 p.m. EDT) on Friday, April 10, 2026. The Artemis II test flight launched on Wednesday, April 1, from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida to begin its 10-day journey around the Moon for scientific discovery, economic benefits, and to build on our foundation for the first crewed missions to Mars. NASA’s Landing and Recovery team and the U.S. military are coordinating efforts to extract the Artemis II crew from the Orion spacecraft. Credit: NASA/Josh Valcarcel
