Next up on my Batman movie journey is Under the Red Hood, the second most highly celebrated animated film featuring the Caped Crusader, and a personal favorite of mine.
As a 90s kid reading samplings of DC comics from 98-05 I kinda missed the entire boat on Jason Todd. This movie was actually my first exposure to him as a character rather than just a display case.
It should be stated that Judd Winick got to write the comic AND the movie and went on record saying he prefers the movie. I do too. The "twist" is obvious in both cases but the movie doesn't try as hard to hide it.

Al-Baghawi a dit dans l’explication de ce verset :

« Et ceux qui ne jugent pas d’après ce qu’Allah a fait descendre, ceux-là sont les mécréants. »
(Coran, sourate Al-Ma’idah, 5:44)

Ibn ‘Abbâs et Tâwous ont dit :

« Ce n’est pas une mécréance qui fait sortir de la religion.
Mais celui qui fait cela est qualifié de mécréance (dans ce sens), et ce n’est pas comme celui qui mécroit en Allah et au Jour dernier. »

‘Atâ’ a dit : « C’est une mécréance moindre, une injustice moindre et une perversité moindre. »
Et ‘Ikrima a dit : « Le sens est : celui qui ne juge pas selon ce qu’Allah a fait descendre en le rejetant a certes mécru. Mais celui qui le reconnaît et ne juge pas selon cela est un injuste et un pervers. »

L’imam As-Sam‘ani a dit dans l’explication de ce verset :

« Sache que les Khawarij utilisent ce verset comme preuve et disent :

“Celui qui ne juge pas selon ce qu’Allah a fait descendre est mécréant.”
Mais les gens de la Sunna ont dit :

“Il ne devient pas mécréant pour avoir délaissé le jugement.” »

Jumping right into Mechs vs Mutants. I just discovered this iteration of the Batman series yesterday and it's already over. Sad times. Image
Already not liking the redesign they did on some of the characters. I guess a new wave of toys were coming out.
Oh...they brought Damian in. And he's kinda incompetent. Huh...that's certainly a choice.

Alright, now on my Batman watch list, the infamous adaptation of The Killing Joke from 2016. The reputation of this movie precedes it so I'm bracing for impact.
"First of all, I realize this is probably not how you thought the story would start."
Barbara, sweetie, a shot of Gotham's skyline at night is how most of these movies start. Oh, wait, you meant that this Killing Joke movie isn't going to jump into Killing Joke yet.
Killing Joke is an inherently gratuitous story. It's why Alan Moore grew to dislike it. It has an awkward legacy. It was never written with the intent of being in continuity. It sold so well DC had to make it canon. They did so in a hamfisted way.

Alright, time for The Lego Batman Movie (2017) not to be confused with Lego Batman: The Movie (2013). Completely different things.
To my understanding, the older one was a Batman movie, but with Lego whereas this is a spinoff of The Lego Movie, starring that movie's version of Batman. Which sucks because I'm not fond of that movie and I lowkey hate its Batman
I did watch this once and didn't care for it. But I remember very little about it.

I'm really eager to be done with these Batman movies, So I'm moving right along to Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons from 2022.
Super Sons was a fun book. I like the idea of Jon Kent more than anything I've seen him in and Damian is...not my favorite. But pairing him up with Jon Kent fixed a lot of his issues even if it did feel similar to Tim and Conner's dynamic.
Dude...do we really need to see Superman's origins? He's got arguably the most famous origin in all comicdom and this movie is literally about his kid. Who is possibly going to watch this without knowing his origin?

🚨 This feels like cheating (but it’s not).

NotebookLM can now teach you like a top university tutor — explaining difficult topics in simple terms, helping you understand faster, and guiding you like a real mentor.

No subscriptions. No hourly fees.
Just the right prompts.

Here are 8 you should start using today:Image
1. The Instant Study Guide

Upload your material. Then ask:

"Create a complete study guide from my uploaded material. Organize it by topic. For each topic, include: 3 core concepts, 2 common misconceptions students have, and 2 exam-style questions with full answers. Keep explanations under 5 sentences each."

What you get: a structured guide that a tutor would charge 2 hours to build.
2. The Socratic Quiz

"Quiz me on the most important concepts in my material. Give me 10 questions, starting with foundational recall and ending with application-level thinking. After I answer each one, give me immediate feedback on what I got right, what I missed, and the full correct explanation."

What you get: a real tutoring session, not just flashcards.

Volume profile is a ridiculously profitable indicator

But most traders using it still lose.

Here's how to use it the right way & turn it insanely profitable: Image
When most traders discover Volume Profile they do the same thing

They add it to their chart & get overwhelmed by everything on it.

- Value area highs and lows
- Points of control
- Failed auctions
- Session profiles
- Composite profiles
- Developing POC

Hours of study later they're more confused than when they started.

But the REAL power of the Volume profile has nothing to do with this...Image
The real power is in the raw data underneath all of it.

The actual volume at each price point.

Just the raw answer to one question: where did the market actually care, and where did it not?

That's what Volume Profile was built to answer.

And once you start using it that way, it changes everything:

From Iran to Asia: Why Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and the Philippines Must Rethink Security Beyond U.S. Containment

Japan and South Korea together host approximately 38 major U.S. bases and a total of over 200 installations, including various smaller facilities such as supply depots, support posts, and shared structures.

The Philippines, while not hosting any permanent U.S. bases, has granted the United States permission to build facilities and preposition equipment at 9 of its own military bases.

Taiwan does not host any official U.S. bases; however, American special forces and other instructors remain on the island to provide training and consultancy.

The Gulf countries, including Iraq and Jordan, had about 14 main bases, and, just as in the Asian countries, there are agreements that also allow access to additional facilities.

At the beginning of the war, Iran launched strikes against roughly 40 to 50 distinct targets in a single wave of attacks. Although the intensity decreased afterward, it sustained attacks for 40 days, rendering several U.S. bases in the region uninhabitable and destroying various pieces of equipment operated by American forces.

Iran had 4 confirmed large missile production complexes and another 5-8 underground missile cities that also featured confirmed assembly lines, out of an estimated total of 25-30 missile cities.

We can reasonably assume the existence of additional unmapped production sites, potentially increasing this total to 13-15 units based on my estimates.

This theoretically represents something like 40-50% of Russia’s capacity, which operates with about 25-30 large missile production complexes and an annual output on the order of 2,500 precision missiles for land attacks.

But the bigger question arises when we look at China using the same parameters. The West has mapped 136 facilities linked to the Chinese PLARF, more than 60% of which have shown significant expansions in the last five years. In China’s case, if 136 were mapped, I estimate the real number is at least 150.

This is more than 10 times Iran’s capacity, with even more modern and precise missiles.

What I argue in this article is that the encirclement strategy has proven itself a failure in modern war, and I’m not even convinced it ever really worked. It has been an enormous waste of money, paid for by the American taxpayer, with virtually zero effectiveness.
All of this urgently needs to be rethought in light of what we saw in the Gulf, particularly the clear impotence of high-cost air defense systems.

La mendicité décomplexée en ligne

🫱🏽 La majorité des gens n'oseraient jamais mendier dans les rues sauf en cas de contrainte absolue.

📲 Pourtant, afficher un lien PayPal suivi de "soutenez-nous" revient également à tendre la main.
Même si la barrière virtuelle des réseaux sociaux existe, elle ne change en rien le jugement de la demande d'argent.
C'est même parfois pire car la plupart des mendiants dans les rues agissent par survie et nécessité contrairement à beaucoup de demandes en ligne qui sont souvent injustifiées.
