I just can't find anything humorous about American politics right now....

I think all of them have something positive in them. Enemies for Hire is probably the weakest of the bunch because both the ideas and writeups are so pedestrian. I'm a big fan of Horror Enemies, Allies, and Classic Enemies myself. Enemies 3 had a lot of villains who never returned.

The Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act is a proposed bill in the United States Congress. Introduced by representative Mike Gallagher and Raja Krishnamoorthi, the bill would make it illegal to facilitate the distribution or servicing of social media applications designated as being controlled by United States foreign adversaries, unless their operations are divested as to not be controlled by a foreign adversary.
The bill explicitly targets Chinese internet technology company ByteDance and its video platform TikTok, and also provides for other large social media applications to be targeted under the bill if they are deemed to pose a threat to national security. It was passed by the House of Representatives on March 13, 2024.
Am I the only one worried about how problematic this bill can potentially be?

I'd love to say I believe that this was a rare example of compassion and sense from Republicans in Alabama, but I suspect it was just recognition that this court decision is so wildly unpopular, it could cost some Republicans reelection even in deep-red Alabama.
Nonetheless, the right thing for the wrong reason is still the right thing.
We're taking every win that presents itself.

Whoops....I forgot I intend to use SHIELD...

I just assumed Ultraman was able to just assume his form in later series just like Ultras like Seven and Mebius had human disguises without literally merging with a person.. Maybe the OG Ultraman just uses that form as a tribute to Hayata. Anyways....way off topic here. LOL

I am picking Shin Hayata, the first Ultraman, as my paragon. Despite being separated from his giant friend at the end of his own run, he has returned time and again to save the day.

As a side note, the Japanese version suggests that Hayata has no memory of any events between episodes #1 and #39!

One of my favorite superheroes...and definitely my pick for an iconic Paragon.....CAPTAIN AMERICA (comic version)!

As far as I'm concerned, we're screwed this year. If Trump wins, that's of course really bad. If he loses, his base will lose their $#@t...possibly even to the point of major civil unrest. And of course the continuing tribalism. I'm honestly lost as to the potential solution right now.

The lion suit guy- I have never been able to buy into that.
I'm assuming you mean Kraven the Hunter? In addition to presumedly being great at his chosen profession, he also uses a lot of gear and a potion that increases his physical abilities to superhuman levels.

And now the Supreme Court is going to hear Trump's "presidential immunity" appeal. Doing so gives it legitimacy. They should have shut that @#$% down immediately. I apologize for the frustration in my posts, but I get sick and tired of stupidity and ignorance seemingly always winning....

Whenever I see Mitch McConnell or Matt Gaetz, I can't help thinking that they look like they should be monitored by the MIB.
Matt Gaetz is absolutely a snake on many levels.

McD workers in Denmark get paid far more than here and the cost of the menu items isn't significantly higher than here. But then...they actually regulate their corporations there. They raise prices here because they can...not because they have to.

From my FB review...
Movie Review: Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire (2024). This sequel to 2021's Godzilla vs Kong more or less picks up right where the earlier film left off. Overall, this was much better than I expected (though my expectations were admittedly low). While the movie isn't deep by any means, it moves along at a brisk pace and is generally engaging throughout. I give extra credit for the decent amount of personality given to Kong and kin (and they also carry much of the movie). The only real negatives are the somewhat rushed ending and Godzilla mostly regulated to a supporting role. Better half guessed the extra guest star. I'm so proud.
Worth a rental at the very least.
