Yep! We fled Lebanon during the war. I live in the US, but have been back a few times since.

Are you Druze? If so, we may be related 🤣

Marhaba! My family is in Abey and Abadiyeh. My cousins are ok as of yesterday.

So glad to hear you are safe habibi. Thank you for sharing.

I have watched it off and on since it first aired and I can’t remember ever seeing Trump. In fairness I haven’t watched much the last couple years.

Mr. Garrison isn’t Trump, no matter how much they nod and wink.

Obama wasn’t portrayed by another character and neither was Bush and neither was Clinton.

Did they ever actually show Trump? Or was it bs Garrison as Trump?

Looked out of curiosity and seems the answer is no. Also, they literally said they were scared to make fun of him.

They’re such wusses.

During W’s reign they used kid gloves. Always been like that with conservatives.

Why is something as vital if not more vital than US Mail left to scummy private companies?

We’re well into the 21st century. Many businesses will direct you to their website when you call in.

Having affordable internet access is not a luxury it’s a necessity.

It’s petty third world mindset to allow these rent seekers to continue to profit off of awful service. Especially when they actively seek to block municipalities from setting up their own ISPs.

I honestly would get one if I could afford it.

It is significantly more. I mean, it’s one of those things that isn’t that much more in the scheme of things, but when you’re scrambling to replace a roof, it’s a lot.

I paid $8k for a new roof a few years back. I got estimates. Metal would have been about twice as much.

Hard to justify when a decent shingle lasts 15-20 years.

Doesn’t film have a definition roughly equivalent to 2K?

Not sure why they didn’t just do a digital transfer to 2K.

You literally cannot imagine the doses of oxytocin and dopamine when your kid looks you in the eyes and smiles for the first time. All the wonderful moments are like a goddamn fix.

It’s literally the only reason (most) parents don’t murder their kids when they’re being shitty little assholes.

But seriously, you simply don’t realize how heady a hit of emotional bonding-feel good cocktail it is until it happens to you.

And this is coming from someone who spent half the 90s candy flipping.

This sounds so cruel and dystopian.

Surge pricing is just another name for price gouging.

I wonder if she calls him “one of the good ones”.
