Right off the bat, I want to say, that Mufasa: The Lion King is superior to its 2019 predecessor. But the unfortunate truth is, that bar is very low. Like many people, I wasn’t the biggest fan of Jon Favreau’s The Lion King adaptation which felt soulless even though it was a massive box office success, it left people with a bitter taste in their mouth. So it was likely that we wouldn’t get a continuation of Simmba’s story, so that doesn’t leave many ways to tell another story in this universe. A prequel with a largely original story sounded…

During a recent debate, Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt argued that drug abuse has been largely ignored as a factor when attempting to address the city’s homelessness crisis. While both of his opponents on stage, Mayor Karen Bass and Councilmember Nithya Raman, touted progress addressing street homelessness, Pratt said neither of them is addressing the crux of the issue, which he believes is drug addiction.“The reality is no matter how many beds you give these people, they are on super meth, they are on fentanyl,” he said during Wednesday’s forum.While a link between drug use and homelessness has long…

A year ago, Pakistan and India fought a short but intense war — the worst military confrontation between the two nuclear-armed neighbours in decades. During the period of Marka-i-Haq (the battle for truth), Indian fighter jets were shot down, and Pakistan launched Operation Bunyanum Marsoos — a barrage of attacks against Indian military targets — in retaliation for missile strikes by New Delhi. The conflict ended with a US-brokered ceasefire. During the four-day war, Pakistan showcased a wide variety of weaponry and military technology, ranging from advanced missiles to network-linked warfare systems. Let’s take a look at some of them…

A federal appeals court upheld a lower court ruling that gave members of Congress unfettered access to ICE detention facilities, saying the agency was breaking the law by slapping restrictions on their comings and goings. The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, in a 3-0 ruling, allowed a preliminary injunction to stand. That blocks U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s rules while the case continues to develop. The court didn’t issue a majority opinion but Judge Neomi Rao, a Trump appointee, did write separately to say that while she thinks ICE may eventually prevail, because the lawmakers lack legal standing to bring…

Yves here. It is no secret, if you have been even remotely paying attention, that poverty shortens lifespans, and in highly unequal societies like the US, by a lot. Even though this article comes from a old-school leftie organization, I am astonished by the headline, which I am carrying over as a badge of shame.It depicts the lousy health of the poor as their doing. In fact, most (and arguably the overwhelming) factors that connect low income to bad health operate at the community and societal level: often worse air (housing near big traffic arteries is cheaper), proximity to chemical…
