The Apkallu are fish-men sages who brought wisdom to humans after the deluge.

Don't care, still better than the ads.

I'll sit for 2 minutes in front of a black screen and it'll still be better than 45 seconds of ads.

Greece and Turkiye have that problem - not a war or anything but they have an open conflict about territorial waters and islands that's been going on for a long time. No one wants to get involved.

so I guess it depends on who in NATO the US gets shitty (shittier) with - most big countries in Europe act like they're ready to stand up, but we'll see if they actually get physically involved or if it's more finger wagging. Looking at Greenland...

Not if you get to the scene from the back of the car, where the sticker is and from where you can't see the seat.

A delayed movie is eventually good, but a rushed movie is forever bad, or something.

That's after he buys a new place, past the halfway point of the show.

They're not all upper class, Joey starts as a small background / ad actor, Rachel and Phoebe do small jobs like waitress and massages - Phoebe living in the street as a kid comes up a few times. (well, Rachel is born rich but she starts the series getting cut off and left with nothing - after she dumps her dad's credit cards she had) An episode has Joey, Phoebe, Rachel point out that they're poor and often out of a job so they complain that they aren't nearly as loaded as Chandler, Ross, Monica, and they have a hard time keeping up with their lifestyle. Also confirming Chandler, Ross, Monica are indeed well off. Later, Joey gets a good acting role, Rachel has a good job, and Phoebe gets a good place at some point.

Are they all developers?

In their action, not between their legs or their skin color?? You are misreading what I said.

By this logic, insulting the person at all is denigrating all of humanity.

No??

When you show transphobia, racism, mysoginy, homophobia, fatphobia, etc. you are not disrespecting the one person, you are denigrating an entire section of humanity - you are associating the harm this one person caused you to this one trait that a lot of other unrelated people share. And that's how it becomes a crutch for you to use against anyone you don't like, and then at some point, that's just what you are - racist, homophobic, mysoginist, etc. Even unconsciously, you start thinking that anyone who shares that trait risks doing the same things to you personally, that's just how it happens.

So no, you shouldn't throw around the N word or the F word or berate someone's gender because they are abusing you. Blame them for what they are doing to you, not for what they are. You don't owe your abuser respect, but this isn't disrespecting one person.

AIPAC doesn't leave a lot of names available.
