If you only watch one TV show this year, watch Netflix’s “Adolescence.” Never a truer piece of film has been made about how much we let a generation of young people down. We all blame each other for the profound effects of social media, the reality is we all let it happen. We’re all responsible.

Trudeau: We’re probably going to keep booing the American anthem. But let me tell Americans, we're not booing you. We're booing a policy that is designed to hurt us. But we're Canadian. We're going to fight. And we're going to win.

Jesus, this is hard to read. Trump has got what he wanted: Zelensky to beg for US help ✔️ To not speak truth about Putin ✔️ To accept the minerals deal on US terms. ✔️ Jackboots and shit. Tick. Tick. Tick. My heart aches for Zelensky, who's doing this for his people. 💔 Rock and a hard place...
