I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

If you are watching the NBA snooze-fest over the 🇺🇸 v 🇨🇦 hockey game what are you even doing with your life?

The cruelest retaliation Canada could take at this point would be denying us Shoresy season 4

I appreciate a lot about @theatlantic.com but holy cow is the hyper focus on elite private colleges odd.

Tim Walz (MN Gov) signing bill that gives food to kids for free at school, something that seems stupidly obvious and shouldn't be contentious. VS Huckabee Sanders (AR Gov) after signing a bill banning critical race theory from schools then days later signing a bill to make Child Labor legal.

Just watched “Waltz with Bashir” for the first time since seeing it in the theaters. Extremely relevant today. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waltz_w...
