  I thought #Supergirl was great. I mean, the thing I like about superhero movies is the moral quandaries. After all, with great power comes great responsibility. That's why superhero movies are always interesting. Imagine you had this power... What would you do with it? "Supergirl" looks at the question of whether you could opt out of using it at all. Power corrupts, right? So can you do more good by just hanging out on a world with a red sun, getting drunk but NOT killing anybody?...

  @david_chisnall@infosec.exchange Likewise, I wonder how annoyed Putin is with Trump for the same thing. This war is the first thing Trump's done that doesn't seem to be directly in Putin's interest. Yes, it's weakening the US, which Putin likes. But Iran was one of Russia's few allies. And Russia depends on oil sales almost as much as the Gulf states. Honestly can't figure out what Putin is making of any of this.
