neither, both lost and the court of public opinion will probably hang over both of them for a while regardless of the verdict.

I think it's pretty obvious that public opinion has turned against Amber Heard.

So back to the topic.
The EU have said they are going to cut of Russia oil and gas by end year by 80 to 90%?
How are they going to do that ?

And what if the Russians play a prank right now and say, hey since you are going to cut us out by end year. I guess lets stop trading right about next week to save everyone from the trouble.

ehmm thats johnny's massive fan base. for sure its painted that shes the baddy. ultimately its all about the movie exec's, which yes, will be influenced by all of johnny's fans. my understanding was her role was cut back heavily in aqua man, meanwhile johnny's career took a nose dive during this. both of them need to navigate a route out of this and back into the A Tier.

I think they cut holland off today ? but well money is money.

I would recommend giving this a read. Even if you don't agree with it, you may question your viewpoints a little more: https://warontherocks.com/2022/05/would-we-do-better-hubris-and-validation-in-ukraine/

Was a good read thank you.

Amber Heard lost. The fake crying over the fake trauma is a lot. She is literally an actress that can't fake cry, wtf, and watching her fake cry with no tears was eye roll inducing. It seems like she made up things like being raped with a bottle and I don't know why someone would do that but I have a very different kind of personality disorder than her I suppose. The psychologist of her's said he did a mental status exam on him based in his movie performance in PotC...what? and it looked like he had tardive dyskinesia or something with all that weird mouth stuff. He was the best part because as a profession psychologists are really fucking weird and he was looking at everyone like they were dumb and just not getting what he was saying when he was just weird and what he was doing was meaningless.

Johnny Depp seems to have the usual constellation of bullshit that orbits every alcoholic and party drug user but nothing suggested he is a domestic abuser, just someone who doesn't take care of himself very well.

The fake crying was a lot. I work in acute crisis stabilization and I'm pretty good at figuring out real crying, seizures, pain, withdraw, etc. It just jumps out. That crying was so fake it hit everyone's bullshit meter. She was just making faces for awhile. She described a relationship she said was traumatic as "soft and velvety". That isn't the language you use about an abusive relationship.

For the record I don't care about this hearing, but people at work were and talking about it a lot and I just seen a lot of clips because people have been playing it around me. The people interested in it are more interesting than the trial IMO.

Putin, just to go back on topic

With oil its easy 90%. We already cut a lot of oil imports, before an official European embargo.
The only countries that have problems are the few small ones who processed only Russian oil and arent ready for different blends from other countries.
With gas its more complicated, as there isn't enough gas on the world market. So this is why only like 80% there.
But even if Putin cuts gas from Germany, it wont be a disaster, but a very unpleasant as it will mean shortages and forced reduction of usage.
