Just so you guys have some context about why Kai and I are losing our absolute marbles. The Tempest is a classic Shakespearean play. Loosely, a sorcerer named Prospero (guy), a duke of Naples, is betrayed by his brother, escapes death with his daughter and crashes on and takes ownership of a magical island and basically enslaves a spirit, Ariel, to do his bidding (Ariel is male. Yes, it's a male name. This was before Disney's Ariel). Twelve years later he uses Ariel to crash his enemies, including his brother, onto the island and take revenge. Shindigs ensue, his daughter ends up marrying the prince (don't ask), all is forgiven, Ariel is freed.
This is a heartbreaking play about power, and the most tragic character in it is Ariel who is the actual doer of magic and just wants to be free.
That said. In the production we saw today, Prospero is a woman and is played by, you've already heard it, Sigourney Weaver (of "Alien"). And Ariel. Is. Non-binary. And played by THIS PERSON.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has been a driving force in markets for the past few weeks. "He has to start being more proactive and to find a real solution to this situation, not stay in standby without interfering. It's a very irresponsible position from the owner of Telegram," she said. This ability to mix the public and the private, as well as the ability to use bots to engage with users has proved to be problematic. In early 2021, a database selling phone numbers pulled from Facebook was selling numbers for $20 per lookup. Similarly, security researchers found a network of deepfake bots on the platform that were generating images of people submitted by users to create non-consensual imagery, some of which involved children. "The result is on this photo: fiery 'greetings' to the invaders," the Security Service of Ukraine wrote alongside a photo showing several military vehicles among plumes of black smoke. In this regard, Sebi collaborated with the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to reduce the vulnerability of the securities market to manipulation through misuse of mass communication medium like bulk SMS.
