  @RoyalMaj3sty I’m a Seven guy, so I’d have to swap Robin and Shazam with Aquaman and Martian Manhunter. I don’t have a problem with Nightwing’s placement. I don’t think you can have Batman over Superman though . . .

  @ClassicKun93 Please, stop larping as someone with intelligence. MAWS season 3 was terrible- the show should be done. Snyder’s universe wasn’t great nor Shazam nor Black Adam nor, Supergirl- although, it had moments. You may go, ClassicBaka.

  My bff said we should watch Logan together. That would be really fun. I would down to watch it together with him when we’re able to. First we’re gonna watch Shazam 2 together then Logan, then the Spider-verse movies when it’s closer to the third movie’s release date.

  @the_xueyutanhua We should all agree that that Shazam run never existed, never happened, was never written. Not only did it do absolute **** for jon and Damian, but also it's main characters throughout every issue 😭

  This COSOMA debate made me realize something… A thread 1/ While everyone is arguing about royalty payouts, I’m seeing something different. I’m seeing a system problem. And software problems are meant to be solved. 2/ If artists don’t fully trust how royalties are calculated… If the public doesn’t understand the monitoring system… If people keep asking where the numbers come from… That’s a transparency problem. Transparency is exactly what technology can improve. 3/ Imagine a platform that monitors radio and TV broadcasts in real time. Not guesses. Not spreadsheets passed around. Actual digital monitoring with an auditable trail. 4/ Imagine every song played being automatically detected using audio fingerprinting—similar to how Shazam recognizes music. Every play gets recorded. Every record has a timestamp. Every calculation can be traced. 5/ Now imagine every artist having their own dashboard. “My song played 287 times this month.” “These are the stations.” “These are the broadcasts.” “This is exactly how my royalty was calculated.” No mystery. Just data. 6/ The platform could also allow broadcasters to upload playlists digitally instead of relying only on manual submissions. Everything becomes faster. Everything becomes easier to audit. Everything becomes more transparent. 7/ And why stop there? Churches… Event organizers… Festivals… DJs… Could also submit licensed digital setlists. The more legitimate usage we capture, the fairer the royalty system becomes. 8/ This isn’t just a COSOMA solution. It’s a solution for every collective management organization across Africa that struggles with monitoring, reporting and royalty distribution. That’s a regional software market. 9/ This is the type of software Malawi can build. We don’t always have to import technology. Sometimes we should build the infrastructure ourselves. 10/ That’s why I’m putting this idea out there. I’m looking for partners who believe Malawi can build world-class technology. Investors. Government. COSOMA. Broadcasters. Let’s build it together. 11/ Imagine Malawi becoming the country that develops one of Africa’s most transparent copyright royalty systems. Not because we complained. Because we built the solution. 12/ Sometimes the biggest opportunities don’t come from asking, Why is the system like this? They come from asking, What if I built something better?

  @oluwaseun7g Doom would be a problem in DC. He would beat Dr.Fate easily and then claim the power Shazam. Instantly making him able to defeat superman. Doom would probably top 5 threats in all of DC.

  @Itssan17 DC biggest issue is that they have never had a real plan for their superheros. They tried to copy and paste what Marvel did but Marvel evolved and found ways to appeal to the comic book fan and the casual fan and also make a good movie. DC hasn't been able to do that since The Dark Knight. The had a few hits like, Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Shazam but allt hose films blew it with their audience by the sequel.

  @damiebi10 JLA flopped, Shazam flopped both of them, Blue beetle flopped, wonder woman '84 flopped, flash definitely flopped despite cameos from JLA members, and Aquaman 2, flopped, yeah you guys never talk about the terrible second half you had.

  @bekeestitches Shazam was never the problem. The problem was DC not knowing how to support something lighthearted and fun while everything else was trying so hard to be dark and gritty.

  Anti-Flag - “Broken Bones” it's whatever Arkells - “Whistleblower” don't like this band at all but this has some energy to it it's decent Band of Skulls - “The Devil Takes Care of His Own” i blame the black keys for all the mid blues rock they kept putting in these games Bassnectar - “Pennywise Tribute” 7/10 i don't even know much you could even call this a remix but the original is cool Battleme - “Shoot the Noise, Man” even the electric stuff has to be bluesy apparently Classified - “Run with Me” this is so so bad i can't even pretend to like it for halifax reasons Foxy Shazam - “I Like It” the uncensored chorus is insane. song's so ******* annoying Gaslight Anthem - “45” good song on imo a great album The Heavy - “What Makes a Good Man” pretty cool stuff The Hives - “I Want More” good band but really annoying Monster Truck - “Seven Seas Blues” it's fine but enough of the big burly beard blues rock My Darkest Days - “Save Yourself” at least it's catchy but i hate the hot topic pop metal The Offspring - “Days Go By” maybe the most shameless rip off song i've ever heard, just cover foo fighters instead Shinedown - “Bully” garbage Thousand Foot Krutch - “Light Up the Sky” no

  @NancyMace When you watch James O Keefe where he wears a Hijab aka head scrap we use to wear them when my uncle who had the convertible took the top down for our hair they wear them to not give a man on the street a ***** and then be dragged into an alley and gang *****, slight difference, but head scarf... And they give their name and birthdate and Shazam they get to vote. Unless we stop this you will see this. How much is real Americans living here paying taxes working each day voted vs illegal votes. When you have open borders and no Save America Act this is what you get. Thune! Thune! Earth to Thune!

  2002. You're in a cafe and a song you don't know is playing. There's no iPhone. No App Store. Both are 5 years away. So you pull out your Nokia and dial 4 digits: 2580. You hold the phone toward the speaker. 30 seconds later, the call hangs up on its own. Then a text arrives: song title, artist name. That was Shazam's initial product. They picked 2580 because the digits run straight down the middle of the keypad. The wrapper was a phone call and an SMS. The audio fingerprinting behind that text is the same core tech that powers the app today. So when the iPhone arrived in 2007 and the App Store in 2008, Shazam was ready on day 1, with 6 years of data and a proven product. 16 years later, Apple bought them for a reported $400m.

  @bekeestitches Everyone blamed Shazam, but the real problem was deeper. Misunderstanding, manipulation, and misplaced blame all along.

  @xavizenberserk So you don't like any of those films? I like Peacemaker season 1. Season 2 had a lot of let down moments, and missed opportunities. I'm not saying I think James Gunn is some amazing director. He's ok. I have to like Shazam... I'm partial. Superman was OK. Had many holes.

  @TheRochaSays What’s even more baffling is that Wonder Woman, Joker, Aquaman, and to some extent Shazam were all box office successes followed up with the most terrible inconsequential sequels you could imagine.

  85% of Google Pixel owners use their phone for the same 5 things every Android phone does. Calls. Texts. Camera. Chrome. Gmail. That's a phone with 15+ exclusive features features Samsung doesn't have, features iPhone doesn't have, features no other Android phone on earth can run being used like a $200 budget phone. Your Pixel answers spam calls for you before you pick up. It identifies every song playing around you on your lock screen, without Shazam, without internet. It erases people from photos. It swaps faces in group shots. It holds your place in customer service queues so you don't have to. Google buried these features behind menus, toggles, and settings nobody opens after setup day. A Pixel product reviewer who's tested 30+ smartphones in 2026 told me: "Pixel isn't the fastest phone. It isn't the most powerful. But it has more genuinely useful exclusive software features than any phone I've tested iPhone included. The problem is Google markets the hardware and forgets to tell anyone about the software." Here are 11 Pixel-exclusive features most owners have never turned on 🧵

  @fadotzara @TBKReturns No, I hated this universe since Superman 2025, same with the DCEU, it was terrible from the get go with horrible films like MOS and BVS, at least there were some decent movies like WW, Aquaman, and Shazam, but overall it was a terrible universe.

  @bekeestitches Shazam was never the problem. The real issue was everyone underestimating what he could become and how much power he actually carried. They judged the kid instead of understanding the hero.

  sometimes a problem arises that you just have to figure out .. someway, somehow . It's not like I was installing tiles on The Space Shuttle or solved cold fusion .. It was a carpentry problem""" .. and the problem was " How are we going to install these interior doors " .. this is generally where all the ding ****'s that built a picnic table or fixed a decking board on grandma's singlewide trailer kick in and say " Well all you gotta do " .. Like Delbert Kent stepping into a phone booth and coming out Super-Carpenter .. The problem was multifaceted and I learned a lot ,, found a new way to set doors so perfectly that they would be approved by NASA .. , Standards and Measures.. atomic clocks would be calibrated to. It was a one time deal but each had to be done 50+ times unerringly .. This was a 20 million dollar home for the owner of a baseball team . contemporary and designed by someone using massive amounts of shrooms .. The doors came in components and the parameters were . . the jambs had to sit on flooring that was pickled in France and had to fit with aircraft tolerances . the jambs were 10 ply exotic wood that was as flimsy as a wet noodle , they had an automotive finish and couldn't be fastened through .. only in the hinge mortise and the casing was also automotive finish and couldn't be face nailed , screwed or any visible fastener . That in itself kneecaps a carpenter . " No way to connect and right " only hot glue or an adhesive that once you commit to .. your doomed .. It'll take explosives to remove .. You got one take . One zinger is .. the flimsy jamb had to be set first precisely .. Not the conventional way whereas the door is in the jamb and it assist in margins and racking .. Nope .. jamb must be perfect first and when you hang that 200 lb blast door for NORAD .. all the reveals , alignments and tolerances better be Shazam .. no do overs !! .. heavy doors have a tendency to pull hard on the upper hinge and open margins on the strike side and scrub the jamb .. This would be unacceptable .. no pre-stressing . no mockup . 5 carpenters stared at these doors and mulled theoreticals for a week . the superintendent was becoming disturbed . every idea I lobbed up got swatted down .. naysayer galore since I was the knuckle dragging carpenter and didn't look like Norm or Bob with matching plaid . .. then I had an epiphany and procedure ... All the naysayers bellowed out " It can't be done like that " .. I already did it in my mind !! .. I spread my tool belt , shined my hammer and took flight and they left me alone for the duration of the job .. I won awards as " The Mad Scientist " .. I let the math do the walking .. It was Genius !! . 😎😜

  @TeaRoseKent If, on the other hand... Once had to take a 25 pg brief down to 15 pgs in time to file, with only a couple of hours and without changing any legal arguments. Took out all the transitional phrases. Shazam!
