He also could’ve been emulating his over-confident character Marty Mauser from his latest big-screen offering, “Marty Supreme,” the frenzied, 1950s-set pingpong affair from “Uncut Gems” co-director Josh Safdie, which hits theaters Christmas Day. Marty Mauser doesn’t necessarily need a championship title to confirm that he’s the greatest table tennis player in the world. That’s the nature of Marty Mauser and, in essence, “Marty Supreme,” and what makes the film such a chaos-fueled adventure from start to finish. But make no mistake, the most convincing performance in “Marty Supreme” belongs to Chalamet. “Marty Supreme” is in theaters.

"There's definitely been a noticeable shift," said McFarland, who for decades has represented straight and gay athletes in a number of sports, from the NFL and NBA to professional soccer. "Many brands and speaking opportunities that previously highlighted LGBTQ athletes are now being pulled back or completely going away." They're going to take it up in part because they think it's positive for the bottom line. The Out Athlete Fund, a 501(c)(3) organization, was recently created to provide financial assistance and other support to LGBTQ+ athletes. But that's what makes him stand out; if he qualifies for Milano Cortina, he would be one of the few gay athletes on the U.S. team.

Russia has attacked Ukraine's capital with missiles and drones, wounding at least 11 peopleKYIV, Ukraine -- Russia attacked Ukraine's capital with missiles and drones early Saturday morning, wounding at least 11 people a day before talks between Ukraine and the U.S., local authorities said.

Reuters —Thailand and Cambodia agreed on Saturday to halt weeks of fierce border clashes, the worst fighting in years between the Southeast Asian countries that has included fighter-jet sorties, exchange of rocket fire and artillery barrages. “Both sides agree to maintain current troop deployments without further movement,” their defense ministers said in a joint statement on the ceasefire, to take effect at noon local time (midnight, ET). For more than a century, Thailand and Cambodia have contested sovereignty at various undemarcated points along their 817-kilometer (508-mile) land border – a dispute that has occasionally exploded into skirmishes and fighting. That ceasefire broke down in early December with the two sides accusing each other of moves that led to clashes. In their joint statement, the ministers agreed on the return of people displaced from affected border areas, while also underlining that neither side would use any force against civilians.
