There was at least one Squid from Lemmy that took a Flying leap to go there.

Hope he got that job he was looking for.
Last I heard, he did make the move. Don't remember if he found a job. I hope he and his family got the help they need. I'm glad he's not spending so much time on Lemmy.
That's also what I heard. And his child was the one he was fleeing to the UK to help out vs feeling like they were targeted with this current US admin.
If he's starting a new job, that's likely why he's not back on Lemmy yet. That shit takes a toll.
New country, new job, new people, new experiences, it's almost like your old life melts away sometimes.
That's likely why he hasn't come back. Lemmy was an outlet for him, for a time, to vent and voice his frustrations of the trump admin and all the shit it was doing to his family. I get it, 100%.
Once he got in a better situation, all that stress and panic kinda goes away. Basically, Lemmy was a drug for him, and he doesn't need it anymore it seems.
Honestly, good for him.
And haven't heard from him since. Wonder what happen to him?
It's funny how the monumental disaster of Brexit has become a molehill compared to what's currently playing now playing out in the United States right now. The UK's "Shoot your self in the foot" policies have been eclipsed by the "Shoot every vital organ you have because they're woke or something" polices of the US.
brexit was largely localized to the UK and US, but the USA was involving every country. and both of these was pushed by putin, weakened the west so they cant support efforts against russia.
putin is also the reason why the right wing govts are gaining power in most countries, and all the anti-immigration effort as well.
So come crawling back, eh?
Those illegal immigrants from the other side of the ocean should be deported instantly! They want to steal our freedom instead of creating their own!
Typical dumb Americans fuck the USA we don't have a king! Proceeds to move to a place with an actual fucking king.
King Charles is far more intelligent and rational than Trump. Europe also aligns better with the values of the left, culturally and politically.
