And that’s a wrap: the 90th Academy Awards is over, largely incident-free. There were no huge fuck-ups this time (if you don’t count giving awards to known abusers, which apparently the Academy doesn’t).
Awards were won, Timothée Chalamet and Daniel Kaluuya were robbed, and more than any other year was diversity rewarded. Jordan Peele became the first person of colour to win an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, and Harvey Weinstein accusers Ashley Judd, Salma Hayek and Annabella Sciorra took to the stage to say Time’s Up.
Sufjan Steven also absolutely wrecked every Call Me By Your Name fan with his performance of Mystery of Love, but that’s neither here nor there. (Can you die from second-hand heartbreak? Stay tuned for more.)
But we know what you’re here for: the memes, the tweets, the jokes you might have missed while you were doing things like WORKING when you should have only been watching the Oscars and consuming Oscars content. Mad, the lot of you.
So here’s the best tweets you (probably) missed, consume and enjoy.

Maya Rudolph and Tiffany Haddish appeared and I immediately screamed “Thelma and Louise reboot” at a stranger.
