Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Bah. Also, feh.
Are there any other Chicagoistas who have Comcast that are not getting the Cartoon Network when they should be?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I don't have cable, so I'm no help.

I get every single channel I'm supposed to except for Cartoon Network. So they actually have to send someone to my place to try to fix it. (I was thinking they could reset something from their office, but no.)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I get it just fine, tommy, but I'm probably on a different system than you since I'm in Oak Park.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
I do not care. I am going to talk about Brotherhood, even if people are too cheesy-cheap to buy Showtime.
It is about how women are the moral compass for a family. If the compass points only to "family", or the compass is too stoned to pick a direction, the men flail about, wondering which way is True North.

It is about how women are the moral compass for a family.
Any distinction made between "moral" and "ethical" here? Or are are they conflated? Also, if women are the moral compass, then are they held responsible for anything men do wrong? So how does this show avoid misogny? Or does it?
Hey, in discussing a work of art it is wonderfully freeing to know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about it. Leaves rooms for all sorts of question and opinions that would be impossible to hold if you actually saw the thing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, misogyny or no, doesn't look like the show avoids sexism. Or misandry. If Gus's read is right, I mean.
