In Wisconsin, the political class has finally emerged, blinking and staggering, out of the long, gerrymandered nightmare that began with the election of Scott Walker a decade or so ago, only to discover that, yes, once again, the experiment has gotten out of the lab. The MAGA-backed recall effort directed at Wisconsin's Assembly leader Robin Vos over the 2020 election is just more proof. |

If they gave awards for the best performance during the Oscars telecast, this year's trophy would go to Ryan Gosling, whose rendition of "I'm Just Ken" seemed to delight everyone watching. The New York Times called it one of the night's "most exuberant" moments. The biggest actual winner at this year's Academy Awards was Christopher Nolan's soaring biopic about the man who invented the atomic bomb, Oppenheimer, which took home seven statuettes, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Supporting Actor. You might look at this and say it was a good night for men, which is ironic, because nearly all the films nominated for Best Picture—including Oppenheimer—tell a different story about men, and it's not good. |

Hey, somebody's gotta do it. At least, that's what Ramy Youssef is telling himself as he prepares to present at the Oscars. "Anytime I'm busy doing something for TV or whatever, I have a buddy who always says that to me," Youssef explains. "He goes, 'Hey, man, someone's gotta do it.' The best part about that is that he's a doctor." So a few days before the big night, I caught up with the Poor Things actor to hear just exactly how he's doing it. |
