  • This is why I hate the way the media and people talk about these issues. Here you say Lebanon, but the title is talking about Hezbollah. But honestly I’m sure Israel looks at it as Hezboollah is just a part of Lebanon. Why isn’t Israel allowed to defend itself from missiles being launched from Lebanon.

    I mean it’s a legitimate political group in Lebanon that’s firing missiles at Israel. Why is that considered okay, what is Israel supposed to do?




  • I’m also curious about the role pregnancy plays into all of this. Obviously everyone back then would need to help out in any way they could back then, but without contraceptives how frequently would women be pregnant? It seems like that would play the largest contributing factor into roles/responsibilities and the article seems to ignore that issue.

    While today you could breastfeed while running a marathon, there wouldn’t be a way to keep the baby close by back then. Additionally, while for the first couple months a pregnancy might not impact your ability to hunt, eventually it certainly would.


  • It was nice to get a new adult animated show that tried to be more than just a raunchy comedy. The plot was intriguing, even if it never really found itself, and the setting was fun and unique.

    Since you liked it you could also check out Krapopolis. It’s a interesting animated comedy set in ancient Greece about creating “civilization” with some pretty big voices.


  • I watched through the end because I was curious where it was going, but I think it got a last season just to wrap things up. Most of the plot lines made no sense or didn’t really get wrapped up.

    It kept feeling like it was building towards something, but it never delivered on any level. Humor was okay, but really shows Groening should stick to an episodic format.



  • I wouldn’t say worst, but maybe greatest difference in expectation vs reality - “My Time at Portia”.

    Cutscenes and voice acting were janky. The UI felt like it was originally an MMO and feels odd for a single player game. The gameplay loop felt tedious and seemed to disrespect the player’s time.

    Maybe I needed to give it more time, but for a game that I thought had generally good/great reviews, it wasn’t clicking for me.
