When I was younger and went out all night often me and my flatmates used to wake up and watch that until we felt better. Like 4 hours of it every saturday and sunday morning.
Watching game shows like the voice or masterchef of other countries to get a feeling of “real” language/accents. Usually movies or the news use a more formal and clear language but when you understand these shows you know you can understand people in everyday conversations.
I’m not sure about how it works in Europe, but in the U.S., military surplus clothing is an excellent budget friendly, durable option. I will say that the stitching can sometimes be spotty, but if you know how to sew, you can get a pair of pants that can stand toe to toe with brands like Carhartt and Dickies for 20-30 dollars less.
Also you can’t just make your own micronation wherever you want. It has to already exist.
This kind of makes the concept of a micronation useless. The point is that anyone can make their own nation with their own rules wherever they are or go. If you have to pick someone else’s, then it’s no different than picking someone else’s recognized nation.
This republic, retroactively dated to 1636, encompasses the Theater District in the borough of Manhattan, in New York City. In the late 1970s, a dispute between Montmartre’s founder and New York Telephone, over whether the micronation could be listed in the government pages of the phone book, ended up in front of the New York Public Service Commission. The commission vacillated, alternately issuing rulings in favour of each party, and listings for the republic did appear in at least a few editions of the New York Telephone book.
All of life is basically a series of interlocking musicals, and I’d aim for some ministerial position. I’d like to work for the Idina Menzel administration.
Nation of Pacifica/Cascadia
This one isn’t on the Wikipedia page for some reason, but it’s a pretty active concept.
It’s basically the west coast states and territories, ranging from British Columbia to Baja California, with the idea of being some contiguous subset of those areas. I’d just want to make sure it includes the Bay Area and LA.
