Agreed, I’ve seen other posts from them that led me to label their account “Russian Propaganda” so it’s definitely a pattern.

This was an interesting read, thank you for sharing. I’m not sure that I find the advice completely applicable to the threats I perceive though. She is describing a situation of open warfare and siege. Our family has tried to prepare a bit for upcoming unrest but I don’t think we foresee it as open siege on a city. In the USA, military might is so advanced that I think any sort of siege/operation is likely to be catastrophic and quick.

The scenario I think is more likely is a more extreme version of the mass supply chain disruptions we experienced during Covid. Longer periods where multiple items just aren’t available. In such a situation it would be good to have extra rice and beans on hand to get you through gaps in availability. Also feel like I should mention that you can get a cheap bidet that you can install yourself from hardware stores for like $100 USD - in case toilet paper disappears again.

What an absolute trash take on these events.

He wasn’t taken to a hospital but instead was transferred to another cell where he was found dead seven days later.

I just was thinking about how horrified everyone should feel about this sentence. Like in what planet is it ok to be legally responsible for another person’s safety and not find them dead until 7 days later. Even in situations where you aren’t restricting 100% responsible. Imagine:

“…transferred to another hospital room where he was found dead seven days later.”

“….transferred to another table at the restaurant where he was found dead seven days later.”

I’m so tired, boss.

I wish it was that simple my friend. I’m a medical doctor but unfortunately English is the only language in fluent in. Although many Europeans speak English, and I’m willing to learn other languages, realistically there is no way I will ever be proficient enough to practice medicine in a second language. So my options are pretty limited in where I could go and how many jobs there really are available to me.

Have you tried smiling more?

I have a Samsung fridge and the app is the same - it demands always-on precise location or it refuses to function.

Absolutely. Fucking. Not.

If I (a US citizen) subscribe for this challenge, does that count as foreign election interference?

And your phone will likely be confiscated and you will be barred entry in the future - definitely worth considering before planning your actions.

It’s a covering for a finger, kind of like cutting the finger out of a latex/nitrile glove. It looks just like a tiny condom made to fit on a finger.

As the title says, bought some nicer furniture which is being delivered and curious if I should tip the delivery driver.

Edit: I’m in the USA.
