The most important Oscar speech tonight wasn’t about film.
The director of “Mr. Nobody Against Putin” said this from the stage:
“You lose your country through countless small acts of complicity.When we act complicit when a government murders people on the streets.When oligarchs take over the media
Trump’s shoe ritual is humiliation theater staged by a man who heard someone summarize one paragraph of a dominance-psychology book, treated it like the Rosetta Stone of dickishness, and decided to make it the operating system of the executive branch.

Trump is planning to deploy marines to seize Kharg Island from Iran. Taking the island will not be difficult. Preventing mass casualties will be the problem.
If Russia has given Iran their cheap fiber optic FPV drone technology then these marines won't last there long.
“Did 🇮🇷 ask for a ceasefire (as Trump claims)?”
IRAN FM: “No. We’re ready to defend ourselves. It’s an illegal war with no victory Trump’s doing for fun.”
“But you’re fighting for survival. Don’t you have to negotiate?”
IRAN FM: “No. We’re stable. We WERE negotiating and they attacked us.”
Utilities are convincing lawmakers around the U.S. to delay bills that would allow people to buy solar panels, plug them into an outlet and begin generating electricity.

ZAKARIA: Trump compared you to PT Barnum. It seems he still has some resentment toward Ukraine and you personally
ZELENSKYY: I don't know, Fareed. I'm looking just to the facts. What American bases need now are interceptors. It's our technology.
US soldiers, inexorably shipping out to the Persian Gulf to die in the AIPAC vs Iran War while invading Kharg Island, have been greeting each other with extra crisp salutes and a deadpan, "FOR EPSTEIN!"🫡 🙃
depressingly accurate analysis of the situation

This feels like the only answer that makes sense
These 52 people could have stopped a national and a world catastrophe any time they chose to. They confirmed Noem, Bondi, Hegseth, et al, okayed DOGE and tariffs, and green lighted Trump’s military attacks. The country and the world reels. Fifty-two people.
My Ides of March fun fact is that the place where Caesar was stabbed is now a cat sanctuary, and I think it’s beautiful that creatures with tiny knives on their feet live there
Trans folks don’t barge into women’s spaces to assault people. You’re thinking of Trump.
Officials are normally presented with ceremonial swords or paintings or whatever. But these guys are so fucking stupid that foreign intelligence agencies can literally give them an "Honorary Electronic Communications Device for a Very Special Boi" and they fall for it every time.
He wasn't just an asylum seeker. Paktyawal was an Afghan special forces soldier who worked with the U.S. Army's 3rd Special Forces Group. He was evacuated on August 30, 2021, entered the U.S. legally and had a pending case with a work permit and social security number. Killed by ICE maggots.
Activists don't let ICE goons get an inch in Vermont
Sad to see the Ides of March becoming commercialised like this. I really feel like we're losing track of the true spirit of the holiday. It's not about how many knives you can stick in a tyrant all at once, it's about the whole community coming together to stab the tyrant as many times as possible.
Having a hard time believing this ides of March story, you're telling me senators did something other than send out fundraising texts

Couldn’t be more obvious the PEDOstein does NOT care about our troops!
Saying the quiet part out loud as the Authoritarian attempts to control the truth.
