Hey everyone,
I’ve recently gotten really into Lebanese cinema, especially films released between 2020 and 2026.
I’m curious to hear your personal top 3 picks

1) Lebanon – Top 3 films (2020–2026)
What are your top 3 Lebanese movies from this period?
Why do you consider them the best? (story, acting, direction, themes, etc.)
They can be anything: classics of the period, recent releases, or hidden gems that didn’t get much attention.

I’m open to everything: social dramas, indie films, festival favorites, or underrated movies that deserve more recognition.
Would love to discover new perspectives and expand my watchlist

Thanks in advance

Hallo guys, I’m a future international student and I’ll start in September. Right now I’m trying to find a place to rent but honestly idk where to start

Is it easy to find rent while still being in my home country or is it kinda difficult if I’m not already in Huddersfield?

If anyone got tips, trusted websites, student groups, or advice about avoiding scams, pls let me know

Thank you All

I’ve been thinking a lot about Sufism and why it creates so much debate among Muslims and even non-Muslims. Some people see it as the spiritual heart of Islam focused on self purification, remembrance of God, inner peace, humility, and love. Others argue that over time certain Sufi movements introduced practices and beliefs that were never part of early Islam, such as excessive veneration of saints, shrine culture, mystical interpretations, and concepts like unity of existence.

What’s also interesting is that many non-religious people and even some atheists seem more attracted to Sufism than to other Islamic movements because of its philosophical, poetic, and spiritual nature.

So where do you personally draw the line between spirituality and religious excess? Do you think the issue is with Sufism itself, or mainly with some practices that developed later over the centuries?

I’ve been thinking about something lately and I’m genuinely confused about it.

Why do religions split into so many groups and sects over time?
For example in Islam you have Sunni and Shia, then inside Sunni there are different madhabs, and inside some groups there are even more branches and interpretations and for Shia as well.

The same thing happens in Christianity and other religions too.

If religion is supposed to come from one truth or one God, why are there so many disagreements between believers themselves? And how does an average person know which interpretation is the “right” one when every group believes they are correct?

I’m not trying to attack anyone, I’m honestly curious and I’d like to hear how atheists or ex-religious people think about this.

Hey guys, I’m traveling to Algeria soon (I’m from Tunisia), and this will be my second time there.

I’m still confused about how the currency works on the street because I keep hearing people talk in “thousands” and “millions”, and honestly I don’t understand anything .

I usually think in euros, but it seems like most people there use these terms instead of exact dinar amounts.

Can someone explain in a simple way what alf or million actually means in dinars, and how I can quickly convert that into euros in my head?

Also, are there any tips or tricks to understand prices better as a foreigner? I just want to avoid confusion and know exactly how much I’m paying when someone tells me a price.

Thanks a lot

guys please i really need advice and i hope u read this even if it’s long, my life feels like it completely stopped, before my twenties everything was good i had dreams, goals, motivation and i knew what i wanted, but after i got my bachelor everything changed, now i live here with my mom while my dad and my two brothers are abroad, one of my brothers is normal and not a problem but the middle one is the problem, he is 28 but acts like he is 10, he has been in europe since he was 16 and now he is 28 and has done nothing with his life, he lives there with my dad and my other brother and now it’s been a year without work, and honestly he keeps getting worse every year, when he was working he was wasting crazy money like 300 euros in one day and god knows where it goes, he brings random ppl into the house when my dad and brother are not there, does drugs, lies a lot and even steals which is something that never existed in our family, like it’s only him who became like this, and the biggest problem is the stress he puts on my mom even from far away, she never has peace because of him and it affected her health a lot, she is getting sick, losing weight etc, and she already has problems with my dad’s family so she is carrying too much, i stopped my whole life just to stay with her and support her because she is here alone with me, i’m 24 now and i feel like i did nothing in my life because of this situation, and we all tried many times to help him, my dad, my mom, me and even my other brother, we always talk to him, give him advice and even find him jobs, but he never stays, his employers always call because of problems and he ends up leaving or getting fired, so nothing changes, and he doesn’t even care about anyone, one time he even brought a girl into the house there and my dad caught him sleeping with her and he still didn’t care, recently he even got called by the police because he stole a phone and still acts like nothing happened and goes out like everything is normal, and on top of that he calls my cousin who is struggling here just to ask him for money even tho he is the one living in europe, like it makes no sense, what hurts more is that everyone dreams to be in the place he is in and get the chances he has but he doesn’t care at all and keeps wasting everything, and there are ppl who risk everything and go to europe illegally with nothing and still manage to build a life and make their families proud, while he had everything since he was 16 and still chose to do nothing, he doesn’t even think about building his future or focusing on something like studying or improving himself even if he already wasted a year, to be honest he wasted years and years, and even when he was working if u look at him he lives like someone homeless and this year is even worse than all the years before, and my older brother who lives with him doesn’t even want to get married and leave him alone which makes things more complicated, i feel like one person destroyed the peace of our whole family and i’m stuck between staying for my mom or leaving to finally live my life, i’m tired mentally and i don’t know what to do anymore, what would u do if u were me?

thank u all
