I’m almost finished reading it. So far, it’s the best translation of the Odyssey that I’ve ever read. The language is more accessible and modern and it flows and reads much more like a novel.

I minored in classic civ in college and have read 2 other versions of the Odyssey previously. She did a great job.

Maybe if the US and other countries didn’t put a 100% tariff on Chinese EVs…

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 🤣

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.
