News Spider-Man: Brand New Day Spider-Man: Brand New Day Trailer Is Full of Growing Pains and Other Villains Spider-Man: He’s just like us! (Lightly stalking his ex via social media) By Molly Templeton | Published on March 18, 2026 Comment 0 Share New Share Spiders, according to an unseen Keith David in the brand-new trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, have three life cycles. Peter Parker (Tom Holland) seems to be between two of his. This is a vulnerable time, and his DNA may be mutating, which—Dr. Banner (Mark Ruffalo) tells him—would be very dangerous. (Banner does manage to make “dangerously mutating DNA” sound kind of fun, though.) But can Peter Parker focus on just one problem at a time? No. Peter and a perfectly grumpy Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) seem to be fighting a tank, and the ninja gang, the Hand, is hanging out in fancy red robes, and there appears to be someone, or something, jumping around from body to body. So, yeah. Dangerous time. Brand New Day picks up in the wake of No Way Home, when poor Peter had to make a choice to save the world—with the consequence that no one remembers him. As is inevitable, this leads to some awkward encounters with his once-girlfriend MJ (Zendaya) and bestie Ned (Jacob Batalon), who are now freshmen at MIT. How Peter finds time to angst in around the plethora of villains that turn up here, one can only imagine. Along with the Hand and the mysterious body-hopper, Scorpion (Michael Mando) is here, as is Tombstone (Marvin Jones III), and somebody playing Tarantula. We have had Spider-movies that are overstuffed with villains before; let’s hope this isn’t one of those. To be fair, it doesn’t look like it. There’s a lot of charm in this trailer, and a lot of mystery. Severance superstar Tramell Tillman pops up for a single line. It is suggested that the body-hopping may be orchestrated by someone in a hood, which immediately led to a lot of speculation that the unseen Sadie Sink is playing the telepathic X-Man Jean Grey. It’s also still unclear who The Bear’s Liza Colón-Zayas is playing. Tom Holland has promised this Spider-Man will go old-school, and given the references to the animated ’90s Spider-Man cartoon being bandied about among Reactor staffers, it seems to be succeeding—so far. Brand New Day is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton (Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings) from a script by returning writers Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. It swings into theaters July 31.[end-mark] The post <i>Spider-Man: Brand New Day</i> Trailer Is Full of Growing Pains and Other Villains appeared first on Reactor.

By the author of How to Prep When You’re Broke and Beyond the Prepper Stockpile We’ve talked about the medical supplies you should stash away. We’ve talked about the skills you need to develop so you can use those supplies.  But there’s a ton of medical advice on the internet that is just terrible, as this video with two professional paramedics discussing first aid myths shows. It’s important to note that giving the wrong first aid treatment can sometimes be more harmful than no treatment at all. It’s important that you call 911 if you can. Their operators are trained to help callers remain calm and to walk them through the correct steps. First things first, remain calm. Remaining calm is of the utmost importance, as Selco noted in this article with a video of an example of terrible first aid. It’s perfectly natural to be adrenalized in a first aid situation, but with the proper training, you can put that adrenaline to good use. Without undermining those folks’ wish to help, it must be said that they overreacted in treating a wound that looked absolutely like a wound that does not require the use of a tourniquet. In the survival movement (and not only there), a tourniquet is seen as a magical device that saves lives, and that almost should be used whenever blood occurs. In reality, the explanation when you should use a tourniquet is very simple – whenever you can not stop the bleeding in any other way. The bleeding in the video looks like it could have been stopped by good old direct pressure without any problems. However cool the use of the tourniquet may look, there is (or there should be) common sense in using it. Again, you use it when you can not stop massive bleeding in any other way because by using the tourniquet for example, on a leg like in the video, you are obstructing blood flow to the leg. From the point of application of the tourniquet, in other words, the leg is not getting blood and eventually, it will “die”. That is the reason why you should use it only when other means are not stopping massive bleeding.  You use a tourniquet only in life-threatening situations. Now, you as a prepper add to the fact that in the world without a running system (and hospitals) you should be extra careful when to use it, because “help is on the way” might not be an option. By applying an unneeded tourniquet on the leg, for example, you might turn a small wound into a situation when complicated surgical procedures might be needed. Remaining calm will allow you to think clearly and help the victim. The more training you have, the more likely you are to remain calm. 12 First Aid Myths Luckily, most people who have taken recent First Aid courses know that these myths are false. However, the last time I had to take a family member into the hospital for a concussion (just a couple of years ago), the doctor told us to wake her up every hour or so. Check out these first aid myths. Are you missing any important supplies or skills? I’m up-to-date on my first aid training and have most of the items they mentioned, except for the defibrillator. They’re pretty expensive additions to your medical kit. (The type they showed us how to use in the video is about $1400 and prices just go up from there.)  If I had a family member with heart problems, had the budget, and lived in a place where the ambulance wouldn’t reach us in time, I would invest in one. Here are some articles related to what they talked about plus a few other important pieces of first aid knowledge how to help someone with a concussion learning how to stop bleeding cold injuries first aid for choking how to clean a wound how to use Narcan on an overdose victim how to diagnose and treat heat illness and injury first aid for burns how to treat a snakebite first aid for stab wounds how to perform CPR first aid for a seizure Make sure you keep a physical copy of a good first aid manual like this – it’s a really good price, too. Did you believe any of these first aid myths? Were any of these first aid myths a surprise to you? Did you believe them previously? Are there any myths or common misconceptions you want to add?

ABC/CBS/NBC Spend 0 Seconds on Trump’s Popular Voter ID Bill Network Evening News Spends Only 8 Percent of DHS Shutdown Coverage Blaming Democrats After Terror Threats, How Did Big Four News Apps Respond to Schumer’s DHS Shutdown? Erasure 2M VIDEO More Iranian Soccer Players are Being “Death Marched” Back Home     CENSORED! ABC/CBS/NBC Spend 0 Seconds on Trump’s Popular Voter ID Bill Complete Media Blackout on a Key Election Integrity Measure: Despite the House passing President Trump's Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act on February 11, 2026—which mandates voter ID and proof of citizenship to prevent non-citizen voting—ABC, CBS, and NBC devoted zero seconds to covering it over the subsequent weeks.  Overwhelming Bipartisan Public Support Ignored: Recent polls demonstrate broad popularity for the SAVE Act's core ideas, with a Harvard Caps Harris Poll showing 71% overall voter approval (including 50% of Democrats, 91% of Republicans, and 69% of Independents), 81% backing voter ID requirements, and 75% supporting proof of citizenship.  Censorship Undermines Informed Public Discourse: By censoring coverage of a highly popular proposal supported by strong polling data, the networks are effectively shielding viewers from policies that could enhance ballot integrity and voter confidence, raising questions about journalistic impartiality in election-related reporting.   Network Evening News Spends Only 8 Percent of DHS Shutdown Coverage Blaming Democrats Networks bury Democratic blame in DHS shutdown coverage ABC, CBS, and NBC gave just 8% of airtime (125 seconds total) to blaming Democrats for the February 14 shutdown—despite their demands blocking ICE/immigration funding—spreading blame vaguely across "Congress" on only 9 of 30 days. Focus on traveler/worker hardships shields Democrats from accountability Over 90% of coverage highlighted airport chaos, unpaid TSA staff, food-bank lines, and delays, while rarely linking these to Democratic obstruction on enforcement policies—framing it as neutral "congressional inaction." Clear double standard vs. past Republican shutdowns Networks (NBC 3%, ABC 9%, CBS 10% Democrat blame) soft-pedal partisan responsibility here, but would hammer Republicans nightly if they blocked funding amid national security or travel risks—exposing ongoing media bias by omission.   After Terror Threats, How Did Big Four News Apps Respond to Schumer’s DHS Shutdown? Erasure Democrats' DHS Shutdown Endangers Americans During Terror Threats Amid Iran conflict and four U.S. terror attacks since Feb 14, 2026, Democrats are blocking DHS funding to force ICE limits, body cams, and detention curbs—leaving half the department furloughed, TSA agents quitting, unpaid agents on the front lines, and FEMA aid delayed. National security is being held hostage for political demands. Big Four News Apps Buried the Democrat-Caused DHS Crisis MRC review of 2,300+ top stories (Feb 14–Mar 14, 2026) found only 1% mentioned the shutdown; most framed it neutrally as a “standoff” without blaming Democrats. Coverage skewed heavily left (71% on Apple News, 67% on Google, 100% on MSN), with zero right-leaning sources on Apple/Google and almost no headlines tying it to Democrats’ ICE demands. Big Tech & Media Shield Democrats While Terror Threats Loom Unlike past shutdowns where media always blamed Republicans, the Big Four apps are sanitizing this Democrat-driven crisis to protect them. Frontline agents work unpaid as threats rise, yet these platforms—tilted toward Democratic spin—offer silence or soft coverage. It’s not balance; it’s concealment in a time of real danger.   2M VIDEO More Iranian Soccer Players are Being “Death Marched” Back Home The Dire Plight of Iranian Women's Soccer Team Members: The captain of Iran's women's soccer team has withdrawn her asylum request in Australia and is returning home due to her family members "disappearing"—a hallmark of fascist regimes that target political dissidents. This is the fifth team member to abandon Australia's asylum offer amid threats to their families, forcing these women into a perilous "death march" back to Iran. Hypocrisy in Selective Left-Wing Activism: While "free Palestine" garners widespread protests, campus shutdowns, Hollywood speeches, social media campaigns, and media outrage over women's rights, the forced repatriation of these Iranian women soccer players elicits only silence—or "crickets"—from anti-fascist groups, celebrities, and pundits who claim to champion anti-dictator causes and gender equality. UN's Inconsistent Stance on Human Rights: The United Nations, quick to criticize the U.S. for any hesitation in funding, has remained mute on this crisis involving an entire women's soccer team facing family abductions and repression in Iran, highlighting a glaring double standard in global advocacy for women's rights and against authoritarianism.  

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel is a man who wears accusations of having Trump Derangement Syndrome as a badge of honor, but on Tuesday, Kimmel’s TDS led him to applaud Joe Kent's resigning from the Trump administration over the Iran War. According to Kimmel, Kent is just some disillusioned MAGA follower, not a foreign policy radical who has flip-flopped on the very issue he resigned over. Kimmel began, “One of Trump's top intelligence officials caused him some tumult by resigning today in opposition to the war. Joe Kent, Trump's director of the National Counterterrorism Center, wrote, “I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation.”   Jimmy Kimmel hypes flip-flopping Joe Kent's resignation, "this is not some radical deep-state operative left over from the Biden administration. Kent was a big MAGA guy Trump appointed. You get the sense every one of these Republicans has their ass cheeks clenched tightly right… pic.twitter.com/fsYt3exrjm — Alex Christy (@alexchristy17) March 18, 2026   Kent previously claimed he was a big supporter of wiping out Iran’s ballistic missile program, and now he’s resigning because Trump is doing precisely that. Nevertheless, Kimmel also claimed, “And this is not some radical deep-state operative left over from the Biden administration. Kent was a big MAGA guy Trump appointed. You get the sense every one of these Republicans has their ass cheeks clenched tightly right now, hoping he puts an end to this war as soon as possible.   New media post from Donald J.

Israel did not manufacture the Syrian Civil War. If Joe Kent took a job in the Trump administration knowing that his views were not aligned with the White House, then that is on him. The fact that he has fallen to conspiracy theorizing about his own wife’s death is an indictment of him, and the fact that Jimmy Kimmel and his band of writers roll him out as the voice of reason is an indictment of them.
