Iconic part of my childhood was watching the Carol Burnett show every week and watching the cast try not to break during moments like this. THIS moment? My entire family was on the floor, dying laughing. RIP Bob Mackie, who always understood the diva assignment.

Be a Laurie. I think Laurie is probably sleeping pretty dang well at night

As the flight neared final boarding, another ICE officer accused Laurie of interfering with the operation and pressed her to help locate the passenger. Laurie declined to say whether the woman was on the flight's passenger list and told the officer he would need to contact the airline's corporate security department for information. "You're going to need a subpoena," she said. No arrests were made at the gate that day.

The next day, the passenger called her.
She had made it home. And she was with her child.

I guess April Fools Day is over. Now, instead of talking about bonkers shit that’s completely made up, we can resume our normal programming of talking about bonkers shit that, despite all of our hopes, is completely true.

If you watched the live NASA channel and all the NASA programming you’ve gotta give it up to some of the best science commentators in the business. NASA is absolutely masterful at this and it’s important to note this is a priority for them. Not many other govt orgs do this level of public education.

“Never before has Hubble caught a fragmenting comet this close to when it actually fell apart. Most of the time, it's a few weeks to a month later. And in this case, we were able to see it just days after,” a scientist said. (6/6) 🔭 🧵
