This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.
GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.
ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

I’m annoyed by the breathless articles in NYT and co about the supposedly uncertain German election. Relax, it will be boring - coalition of CDU and SPD + if needed Greens or FDP. AfD out in the cold.

Really enjoying Severance. Old school SciFi that takes our world and disguises it just enough to examine it in ways that would otherwise be awkward. Very much in the tradition of Twilight Zone, Star Trek TNG, BSG, Black Mirror…

Good news, I'm a German citizen now :-)
I did my homework for the election by comparing the platforms and was almost amused to see how single-minded the AfD is. They have five areas of focus: foreigners, foreigners, foreigners, climate denialism, and party like it's 1939. Not much of a plan...
