One of us graduated Summa Cum Laude from Princeton and the other once asked his criminal law professor if he could “slip me a few answers” so he could guarantee an A on his midterm exam
🙋🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤣
Exciting week coming up as our @amazonstudios & @sevenbucksprod come together for a big announcement to deliver fun to families around the world.
Shared passions and always putting in the hard work with our own two hands.
I look forward to this one, brother.
Teremana is on the way! 🥃
And when I rock my Amazon shirt for our meetings to talk shop it sorta makes us twinning.

Dad, you’ve given me the greatest gifts a son could ever receive. You always believed in me and loved me unconditionally. With words and actions, you taught high standards, laughter, hard work, kindness, love, seriousness, and lightness. I’m the luckiest son in the world, and I love you.

Ever since I was five years old, I’ve dreamed of traveling to space. On July 20th, I will take that journey with my brother. The greatest adventure, with my best friend. #GradatimFerociter
The four of us have just arrived in West Texas today. Can’t wait for Tuesday! #GradatimFerociter
Good exchange of ideas on climate change with a lot of passion around preserving and restoring the natural world. There might also have been a side conversation about who’s better — Asimov or Clarke. The meeting was useful and enjoyable. Thank you, @borisjohnsonuk.
We’ve been practicing full missions in New Shepard’s training simulator. Can’t wait for liftoff. #GradatimFerociter
Had a great dinner with the crew last night. West Texas is beautiful!
@richardbranson and crew, congratulations on the flight. Can’t wait to join the club!
@richardbranson wishing you and the whole team a successful and safe flight tomorrow. Best of luck!
Congrats to the @blueorigin team on another successful launch — the eighth for this particular vehicle. And congrats to @amoakoboafo for creating the stunning art that flew into space this morning on New Shepard’s parachute covers. #GradatimFerociter

Amazon said Thursday it will offer to pay 100% of college tuition for its 750,000 U.S. hourly employees.
Starting in January 2022, Amazon said it will cover the cost of college tuition, fees and textbooks for hourly employees in its operations network after 90 days of employment. It will also begin covering high school diploma programs, GEDs and English as a second language certifications for employees.

In 1961, Wally Funk was at the top of her class as part of the “Mercury 13” Woman in Space Program. Despite completing their training, the program was cancelled, and none of the thirteen flew.
It’s time. Welcome to the crew, Wally. We’re excited to have you fly with us on July 20th as our honored guest. #GradatimFerociter
Love this crew.
— grateful to have had the opportunity to share this experience with you. Favorite shot is Mom waving to the rocket as it lifts off. We know we made you nervous. We love you Mom!
Thank you Grapevine, Texas, for making today Wally Funk Day to celebrate her historic flight with Blue Origin as the oldest person to ever fly to space. Wally, you are a true trailblazer and an amazing crewmate.

Amazon gave away cars and $100,000 cash bonuses to a handful of vaccinated warehouse workers as part of its running sweepstakes to encourage employees to get inoculated.
In August, the company launched “Max Your Vax,” a campaign to reward employees who’d gotten the Covid vaccine and encourage holdouts to get their shots.
Incredible image drawn by Sulfikar, a high school student from Queens, NY from the book “Messages to Ground Zero: Children Respond to September 11, 2001.” We published Sulfikar’s drawing on Amazon’s homepage on the first anniversary of 9/11 nineteen years ago.
Say hello to @Oliver_Daemen, who will soon become the youngest person to ever fly into space.
