People on the Right claiming the Kirk murder is an “American Reichstag fire” that justifies a massive crackdown on their political enemies is really remarkable, if you think it through: In this analogy, they are actively and affirmatively taking the side of the Nazis in 1933.

As someone who has used Zoom and not Teams for video conferencing for the past several years, it baffles me that Teams does not seem to have a "self view" option in the settings to pick a background/ check camera settings, separate from the 'join meeting' flow. What gives?

JUST IN: President Trump will rename the Defense Department the Department of War, the White House confirmed
Trump seeks to rename Department of Defense to Department of War
The Trump administration has focused on restoring a "warrior ethos" to the Armed Services.

My prediction is that in that scenario, he blames the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which puts out employment data. Calls them corrupt, run by Democrats, out to get him. Fires people there, insists their numbers cannot be trusted, White House puts out its own fictitious data to make Trump look good

For me personally, Fantastic Four First Steps was better than Superman. More focus, better plot, and no compulsion to universe build. Both could've done with more runtime though

Everyone did Nazi it coming
The year is 2025. Elmo is a Nazi. The president, also a Nazi, is being taken to task for his prolific history of child rape. The richest man in the world, also a Nazi, has released his chatbot which instructs people on how to break into people’s homes and rape them. The chatbot is also a Nazi.

Happy "Unlikely Reads" Month to those celebrating! Finished first book in a selection I otherwise would never read.

Hrishi's review of Spare
3/5: I am absolutely the wrong person to read or enjoy this book. I am viscerally, staunchly against Monarchy in any form. I don't read biographies or autobiographies very much, and I have no patience...

Jurassic World Rebirth: It's not a good movie but I didn't hate it. Decent cinematic experience, terrible script that feels like a reskinned Jurassic Park 3 with some add-ons. Second best Jurassic World, 4th best Jurassic movie after 1, 2 and World IMHO

Bro could move the Indian Americans from Tech to picking tomatoes and blueberries next. Are you ok with Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Punjabi, Marathi, and Gujarati bro?
Here’s JD Vance-influencer Curtis Yarvin advocating a return to slavery.
So that’s how things are going on this July 4th.

RIP Jim Shooter. Comics legend.
As a Marvel editor, he was handed a new toy license to do comics for. Neither Hasbro or Marvel leadership cared about their quality.
Jim did. He rewrote Hasbro's character bios to not be shit, and made his writers treat it seriously.
That license was Transformers.

Everything the US preached to the world through the post WW2 period they are now parched for. 🤦🏽♂️
Revoking an artist's visa for their speech, no matter how controversial, doesn't make us safe.
The government should not be policing the artistic or political expression of citizens, visitors, or anyone else.
