My aunt: It is impossible to imagine that my mother, who lost her parents & became orphaned at 7, fought against Hitler with the Russian people, had to hide in a haystack from Nazi German soldiers, today, at the age of 85, is hiding in the basement in Kyiv from Russian soldiers.

I planned to plant tulips and daffodils on my backyard today. Instead, I learn to fire arms and get ready for the next night of attacks on #Kyiv. We are not going anywhere.

This is our #city, our #land, our soil. We will fight for it. So next week I can plant my flowers. Here.

Somewhere Lenny Bruce is happily handing over the title of Most Badass Jewish Comedian Ever to Zelensky.

this moment of world history in a nutshell

New @AP reporting tonight: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was asked to evacuate Kyiv at the behest of the U.S. government but turned down the offer. An American official tells me Zelenskyy said, “The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.”

[nichvydycia🇺🇦 @nichvydycia]

@ZelenskyyUa Translation: There's a lot of fake info telling that I ordered the Ukrainian army to surrender. So, listen here: I'm here. We are not putting our weapons down, we are going to protect our country. Our weapons are our truth, it's our country, our children and we will protect them

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Не вірте фейкам.

[Brian Whitmore @PowerVertical]

We all owe a great debt to the Ukrainians. They are reminding us why democracy matters. They are reminding us that it is worth fighting for. And they are reminding us that in this era of fake news and alternative facts, the truth still matters.

Thanks for asking, Konnor. Gonna cheat and choose three: Jerry Maguire, The Lion King and Shawshank. Saw all three over the same pivotal two year period in my life and, as I recall, the effect was cumulative.

A wealthy prince throws a huge party in his gaudy mansion during an epidemic for his asymptomatic friends while the peasants die. Then the virus shows up and tears through his fancy guests. Familiar? It’s the exact plot of Edgar Allan Poe’s 1842 classic, “Masque of the Red Death”

Here’s a useful overview of the likely scenarios that the world will be facing in the coming months while managing this pandemic. So much depends on our ability to make good decisions going forward along with our ability to remain resilient. https://t.co/uYpP1KfOUs

@chrizmillr The second time Will Ferrell made a future president seem more likable than he actually is.

[Christopher Miller @chrizmillr]

I just want to remind everyone that a red tie-wearing, silly-haired, wall-building, corrupt President who profits from his non-divested businesses & sends his crooked toadies to go after his rivals under the guise of law enforcement— was in a movie in 2014
