@familyfunguy I know Canada wouldn't accept me unless the circumstances were dire. They're not fond of felons or people with neurodivergent conditions, as it were.

@Heartlander I sadly opened an amazon package today thinking… if I lived in a different country I probably wouldn’t have gotten this next day. could I survive and thrive? meh, yeah I think so

@Akimbo75 We do seem to live with a sense of urgency in the US ... or have progressed to that over the past 50 years.

Remember when people fed that urgency by putting things on "lay away"? Where a store would hold the merchandise safely and the customer paid a little at a time, then received the merchandise once fully paid for. Remember when banks had Christmas Savings accounts? Now, 50 years later we can get things with ZERO down and 10 years to pay, or putting things on charge cards with unlimited years to pay.

Just this Sunday morning I put in a $300 food order at Walmart and it was delivered to our doorstep at 6 p.m. I could have received it earlier. With Amazon I sometimes think they are in time travel and delivering before I even order it.

Does that urgency exist anywhere else on earth?

@KingofBones1 very reasonable.

@AthrillatheHunt true but the antisemitism in Germany seemed to come as a shock since they had been so assimilated for a century. That is why many didn't make much of the Nazis thinking it would pass. The similarities here are astoundingly worrisome.

@samueltyler2 If you believe the statistic that 2% of US is trans that puts their numbers at 6 million , same as Jews who were gassed . Where will the trans nation state be ? Maui?

@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays that was terrifying to listen to.

@Akimbo75 I love in NJ, so my vote certainly doesn't count like one in Idaho, etc.

@AthrillatheHunt That does sound awesome. Maybe a little off topic, unless I missed something lol

@MrBrownstone Me too. But one with no weird bugs.

@PHlover19701 they only want those already self sufficient to live there

@AthrillatheHunt i was really surprised because it was not a great trip for me.

@akindheart oh whys that? They are super stand-off ish but very good people.

@Unefilletrescurieuse that makes you an awesome american.... good heart and soul. but you are always welcome to visit us in canada 🤗

@beermeplease Thank you 😊

@Maya15 who is the bully?

@Unefilletrescurieuse The United States of America

@Unefilletrescurieuse as far as why not leave. i don't understand where you're going with that.
i don't like russia that well either. will moving make me like them better?
i think i'd just not like either from somewhere else.
i don't know if i'd be happier not liking the US and russia either.
so i really don't see where you're going with this.

i have a right to live in the united states and nowhere else so i wouldn't want to be arrogant and entitled presuming some other country should let me live there.

@samueltyler2 Why wait ? Go ahead and leave now .. you know .. beat the crowds

@BrandNewMan i sometimes wonder when it is time to leave and where to go? It is as of i amivong in 1930 Europe and see the storm clouds rising.

@samueltyler2 same

@BlueGreenGrey Italy Portugal and Albania are all good destinations

@AthrillatheHunt i mentioned here that american doctors and nurses are pretty much guaranteed a job instantly if they want to come to canada.....we need them badly 🥺

@beermeplease no country in its right mind would say no to a western educated MD.

@Seashell Facts are stubborn things. Is there anything else you'd like me to explain to you? Happy to help.

@graphite
You ARE struggling with them... tisk tisk

@beermeplease I've been to Sluggers, but not the other two.

@BizSuitStacy i've been to both as well as many others....been down a few times for whitecaps/sounders games. a couple of seahawks/mariners games as well as a pearl jam concert and g'n'r in tacoma

@beermeplease nice
