Kapil Sharma Reveals Netflix Pressure Struggles On The Great Indian Kapil Show

Comedian Kapil Sharma is riding high on the success of Season 4 of his Netflix show  The Great Indian Kapil Show . The series, which premiered in December last year, is currently trending at number one on Netflix India's Top 10 most-watched shows list. In the latest episode, Kapil Sharma welcomed Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday - who appeared on the show to promote their film  Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri . During the light-hearted conversation, Kapil jokingly spoke about the pressure he faces from Netflix regarding the show. It all happened when members of the audience were chatting among themselves and disrupting the shoot, Kapil addressed them in his trademark style. He quipped, “ Mujra dekhne aaye ho? Dance karoon main?  (Have you come to see Mujra? Should I dance?) Work is going on.  Market mein hisaab dena hota hai Netflix ko  (I have to give an answer to Netflix). See, they are still messaging me.” Talking about Kartik Aaryan and...

Elon Musk's 'MAGA' Cap Text Has Eerie Resemblance With Hitler's Nazi Font

Elon Musk, the Tesla owner, showed up on Monday, at Donald Trump's Madison Square Garden rally in a strange cap. 

The official "Make America Great Again" or "MAGA" cap is red in colour with the text in white. However the one Musk wore was black in colour with the text embroidered in an irregular font usually associated with heavy-metal bands and newspapers. 

"I'm dark gothic MAGA," Musk said.

The internet, however, has read it differently. The font on Musk's cap looks suspiciously similar to the ones used for Nazi typography or "blackletter".

According to a report by FastCompany Magazine, Cheryl Jacobsen, an adjunct professor of lettering at the University of Iowa, said that blackletter was used in Germany as a folk style for the Bible. Regardless, during the rise of Adolf Hitler, the Nazi party re-adopted the font as a sign of its nationalism. It also features on the cover of Hitler's autobiography Mein Kampf.

The font, now a relic of the past, fell into disuse after the Nazis abandoned it due to unfounded rumours of its Jewish origins.

Internet sleuths have much to say about the matter. A user on X said, "Elon posted his MAGA hat which uses the Fraktur font, popular in nazi Germany. He wore this at a rally meant to evoke the 1939 nazi rally at Madison Square Garden. He's telling you who he is." While another commented, "Stretching on this one. It's literally the Old English font. You can't cross reference the serifs."

According to the NYT, John Kelly, former President Trump's longest-serving chief of staff, made a striking statement, asserting that Donald Trump embodies the definition of a fascist. He said, "Certainly the former president is in the far-right area, he's certainly an authoritarian, admires people who are dictators - he has said that. So he certainly falls into the general definition of fascist, for sure."

Having said that, MAGA chief, Trump, said on Monday, "The newest line from Kamala and her campaign is that everyone who isn't voting for her is a Nazi," he told the crowd. "I'm not a Nazi. I'm the opposite of a Nazi."

US Reopens Lake Michigan Airspace After Closure Over "National Defense"

US officials restricted the airspace over Lake Michigan on Sunday citing a potential new threat to national security but soon reopened the skies, as the United States and Canada respond to multiple air intrusions. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced "temporary flight restrictions" over one of the Great Lakes along the US-Canada border, designating it as "national defense airspace," one day after a similar closure over Montana led to the scrambling of US fighter jets. The Montana closure was ordered over a "radar anomaly," but no object was discovered. Similarly, the Lake Michigan restrictions were lifted shortly after they were announced, apparently with no threat detected. "The FAA briefly closed some airspace over Lake Michigan to support Department of Defense activities. The airspace has been reopened," the agency said in a statement to AFP. Sunday's action over Lake Michigan marked the latest move to address a series ...
