"'Cosplaying Nazism': Outrage Over Kristi Noem's 'One Of Ours All Of Yours' Nazi Podium Phrase

In this episode of India Ascends, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is facing a firestorm after a phrase 'One of ours. All of yours' appeared on her DHS podium at a press briefing, sparking online outrage and claims it echoes Nazi-era collective punishment slogans. Critics, including public figures and lawmakers, say the wording and imagery raise serious concerns about authoritarian messaging from the US government."

الْـهُـروبِـيَّـة (Escapism);

Typically, the term "escapism" had been viewed under a negative light, despite its various fields of practice for individuals; Some choose substance abuse and the like to escape reality, while some use creativity and arts - whatever it is, that doesn't seem to budge the negative view of such a term.
Anyway, far off from the world of psychology or whatever science that deals with such a phenomenon (or disorder, if you will?), let's ask the other way around: How sound or wise it is, to face our realities? Doesn't the mind need a break from all of this so-called reality (big part of which is filled with non-sense)? This is not a call to legitimize or think "positively" about substance abuse; No. What I'm saying here, probably the solution to this lies in preventive measures and re-direction of attitude. Honestly, though, even what might be called "positive" or "creative" escape, would still be harmful when done in an excessive manner; so much that a person can be addicted to it, in the face of a harsh reality that can't be changed (not with their own humble capabilities).

One hole in the boat, probably can be mended with a finger until you reach the nearest dock, maybe? But when the holes keep appearing, how much one would be willing to mend the boat, or how many fingers can be used in such situations? Similarly, when life hammers one with games of luck, how often one is willing to gamble in the game of success and failure? It might be argued, that escape it all, is the safest route to sanity (or insanity if you will)… Let's now leave that boat there afloat still and not shake it until it's time to wake up - till then, whenever you see someone living in another world than your own reality, check out the gambles that they've lost against life already… I'm sure you'll understand.

[9548] - 2019;

Back to high-speed (I miss working in that niche indeed!). Something from the "pre-COVID" era. I made such a mess with this!
What's fascinating about high-speed, specially if you work without any aiding tools (like Gates or triggers), is that the experimentation becomes surreal somewhat, and the more you work with it, the more your eyes and hands get synchronized, and the more amazing moments you'd discover the more shots you make; and it gets wild with water specifically.
I've stopped posting shot info but for those interested or whatever:
- Canon EOS 7D.
- Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM.
- f/6.3.
- 1/8000 sec.
- ISO200.
- 580EXII, 430EXII.

Today I learned that the fire hazard of a house with a car is substantially more than that of a house with photovoltaic and house storage system and an electric vehicle, that is substantially more than a house with PV and HSS, that is more than a house with only PV, that is more than only a house with a base risk of 0.28%.
