Wayne Zelensky. This guy is the protagonist of Disney's 1989 live-action film, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, its 1992-97 sequels, and the television series in the franchise.
In it, he is the scientist father of a teenage girl and boy, and he accidentally shrinks his kids, and two other neighborhood teens, to the size of insects. Like a total melon. After that, the teens must fight diminutive dangers as the father searches for them.
This is the guy everyone's talking about in the news, which confuses me, but eh.

It’s amazing reading about negotiations during the
FirstSecond Cold War because so much of it is both leaders agreeing what needs to happen and then having to reverse engineer their stated positions and narratives to not look weak or incompetent to their people. If we’d gone to nuclear war, there’s a good chance it would not have been because either leader thought that it was a good idea, but because neither of them could figure out a way to bypass the social dance they were doing.In other words, the Cuban Missile Crisis was the most neurotypical event in human history
Not to nitpick, but the first coldwar was the white army invasion and lead up to it. After WW2 is the second coldwar because we had to ally with the Soviets to win WW2 which ended the first coldwar. This is now the third cold war because the west can only do sequels and nothing original anymore.
to nitpick nitpick the first "red scare" is 1917~1941 oughtn't call it a "cold" war when the white aligned countries literally just invaded Russia
Yeah, I guess, but some historians call after ww2 the second cold war, implying there was a first. Some historians also call McCarthyism a "red scare". They were definitely three seperate wars\scares. The pedant in me needs them categorized neatly lmao
Fair nitpick. Fixed
