My advice, for what it’s worth: try not to be distracted by the faintly discourteous, the mildly incompetent, the harmlessly obnoxious. Roll with the delayed trains, dropped litter and misused apostrophes. Save your powder for the truly malevolent creatures now stalking the land.

Coming this November to @DisneyPlus
A brand new documentary produced by Martin Scorsese and directed by David Tedeschi - “Beatles ‘64” - captures the Beatles’ first visit to America.
Featuring never-before-seen footage restored in 4K - and performances from The Beatles concert at the Washington, DC Coliseum and their Ed Sullivan appearances demixed by WingNut Films and remixed by Giles Martin.
Spotlighting this singular cultural moment and its continued resonance today, the music and footage are augmented by newly filmed interviews with Paul and Ringo, as well as fans whose lives were transformed by The Beatles.

We flew over Hurricane Milton about 90 minutes ago. Here is the view out the Dragon Endeavour window. Expect lots of images from this window as this is where I’m sleeping while we wait to undock and return to Earth.
Timelapse coming in a separate post.
