If you’re American, you should keep your nationality. Instead, apply for work visa and later, permanent residency at your host country. Reason being, the American citizenship makes the local government think twice about sending you to the gulag etc plus you could seek refuge at a US Embassy anywhere around the world. If you migrate to Aus or NZ, they don’t particularly care that you have two citizenships, so you can become a citizen there but secretly don’t tell the US gov. Bear in mind, you have to pay US taxes as a citizen even if abroad.
Regarding a country to move to, try Japan and become an “English Teacher”. Japanese schools regularly take in native English speakers not so much as English teachers, but more of a cultural exchange teacher. There’s a very low qualifications requirements but be aware that you will be assigned to some school in bumfuck nowhere rice fields. Go search for vids on youtube about this topic.
Guys, guys. Hear me out. What if (tokes) yeah…what if like if we like yeah. Oh? Sorry. What if we train pigeons to shit on traffic camera lens. It could be done. The military had trained pigeons to guide bombs against warships. Let’s train and breed pigeons to do this and release them in the wild.
The 737 design has reached its max (heh) potential. There’s no more milk to squeeze out from this cow. Boeing has to bite the bullet and design a new plane from the ground up. Surely those billions in tax payer funded military contracts can be invested in R&D.
Imagine if a French director made a movie about Queen Elizabeth II but made a her a slutty party girl who fucked Prime Ministers on the side. Anglos are masters of slander.
Google Bard recently gained the ability to watch YouTube videos and then answer questions about the video. I asked it to watch a video from a maker who doesn’t share the recipes directly in the description (though he links to it), Joshua Wiseman, specifically the Popeyes Chicken Sandwich But Better video. I then asked Bard to...
The best recipe is from your mum or grandma. Learn from them as soon as possible before they’re gone. It’s recipes honed by decades of trial and error and best of all, they are very likely to your taste since you grew up on it.
Almost every star has a planetary system or at least asteroid rings. There are 100 billion stars in our galaxy alone. If any civilization has mastered FTL travel, there is literally unlimited free real estate everywhere and thus no need for wars. Simply hop to another star system.
Pepe frog memes. It was originally a “sad” frog meme used by cut-me-own wrist R9k users but Hillary’s hillariously inept interns claimed that it was a dogwhistle for Nazis becase Le 4chan bad. That made 4channers mad and you don’t want underwater basketweaving forum enthusiasts to get mad at you. They then used meme magic to get Trump to win.
The bended knee schitck should go away. Marriage should be approached the same way companies approach mergers: via sober meetings and lawyers. Both sides should understand that marriage is more than romance and sex, but an economic and social union too. As with any mergers, a lot of money will be involved, so there is no space for surprises.
I’ve exhausted things I can sleep to on Netflix, and it’s literally impossible to sleep to things on Prime (so I barely watch anything there; it’s not worth falling asleep to something I like, since I might be punished for it), so I’ve started putting on YouTube in the evenings since it won’t wake me with silence at...
The best charity work in terms of bang for the buck is to do what you do for a living but for free. E.g., if you’re a programmer, contribute to an opem source project. If you’re a lawyer, do pro bono work. If you’re a builder, go repair poor people’s houses etc etc.
Palm oil is used because it has the highest yield per hectare and requires little maintenance after fully grown. This means kg per kg, palm oil uses less land compared to any other oil crop. The tree keeps fruiting for 5-10 years, requiring no replanting for the duration, unlike soy or corn which needs replanting each harvest. Replanting uses more pesticides, fertilizers and degrades the soil. The tree also pretty much can grow anywhere in the tropics. You have to cancel out all of these advantages before saying you have created an alternative.
A country that has to “reclaim” ecologically important marshes and seabed, should not be using such land for worthless crops that uses tons of fertlizers and pesticides but you can’t even eat them. At least plant grains.
