That’s what the UN is for! Plenty of Syrians in refugee camps in neighboring countries they can background check and then take in!

Sometimes I think educating people is worth it. If someone’s being civil, I’d rather have a discussion be a honeypot I can flag and dismiss from.

It’s not — whatsapp and skype exist, and Europe has much better 4G coverage than America. I’m in Sweden, I get 7gbs a month on 4g for under 30usd a month. Set up a mobile hot spot to share with your buddies and you can facebook message and whatsapp to your heart’s content.

I’m pretty sure clothes come in different sizes? Maybe they had iphones from before their houses were rubble (there are a lot of upper class Syrians), or have older model used phones?

Flag and dismiss!

All I’ll say about that is that high end clothes have been donated, and you can get a used basic smartphone for like 20 USD. Worth it if it’s the only connection you have with family/friends.

My absolute favorite is Daria and Jane. To be weird and different and okay, to be allowed to be negative, to wander aimlessly around town and go and eat shitty pizza.

Jönköping isn’t near Malmö, thank you very much. (It’s also the home of I’m From Barcelona, The Mary Onettes and ABBA’s Agnetha).

As I’ve told others, I’m going to read this cover to cover as soon as it comes out, then go back to pretending the epilogue never happened and Snape isn’t dead.

My mom would love that!

I saw it originally on Swedish TV, but I don’t know where the footage is originally from.

Life on Mars happened because the same thing happened to Bowie:

Never said she was credible, just that based on her past behavior this is completely unsurprising.

Not really suspect, just not surprising. She hates the Clintons and has ammo, and she’s using it.

Have a CBS report from 1998

Apparently he’s doing a Louis Theroux-esque documentary series for CNN starting in April called United Shades of America.

I still miss Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell....

I’m DYING. Clearly you need to jump on that mentorship program, because I can imagine Samantha Bee monologuing the shit out of this.

Yep!

Really? You’re not going to mention Ridge’s ill-fated run as Head of Homeland Security?
