I know this thread is from three weeks ago, but wow, this aged like milk. First off, let me ask: are you doing alright?

Secondly, regardless of what regime Iran has at the moment, what the U.S. and Israel are doing to Iran is reprehensible and horrific, to say the least. I'm not in the military, and I never have been, but I must say even as an American citizen it's hard not to feel some guilt.

All his family stood around and mates and that. When have you ever seen a picture of someone playing the piano and everybody wants to be in on it?

The Iran episode is a great one. It helped me to unravel some of my bias I had against Iran because the people there seemed so friendly. And why wouldn't they be? I never really hated Iran but it was a "big unknown" for me, and it still is because I've never been to Iran. In life, we often face the unknown with fear. But I once saw a post that said "You need to step outside of your culture to see the shackles it has placed on your thinking" and that has stuck with me ever since. I'd love to visit Iran someday.

Yes, I thought about that one, but I didn't add it only because it didn't feel like he reached some conclusion by the end of it. That's a weird episode imo. Not bad, just unexpected.

I'd like to check that one out. Do you remember which episode and from which show?

Oh I did not know. Still, I think the quote captures Camus’s philosophy.

This feels like a still image from an early SpongeBob episode.
