If you’re not a US citizen - in fact, if you’re not a natural-born US citizen, seriously consider whether you want to go at all. There’s a significantly higher chance they’ll stick you on a plane somewhere and ignore much or all of the bureaucracy that was intended to prevent systemic abuses like this in the past.

Pls explain 🤔
- Comment on "Americans can't coo-" 3 days ago:
Disagree. The can and brand matters for a fully authentic version.
You can do an elevated version that uses haricots vert and fried onions and homemade cream of mushroom made with shiitakes or chanterelles or something, but that’s kinda a different dish.
- Comment on "Americans can't coo-" 3 days ago:
My point is it’s not that. It’s the can.
- Comment on "Americans can't coo-" 3 days ago:
For non-unitedstatesians: “French Onions” does not refer to the nationalty of the alliums, or the manner in which they’re cooked. They come from a can:

Because the monied interests in charge of the two-party system want you to think it is

Glad to be of service. Spotting ears on legs is one of my many talents.

Why she got an ear on her leg
- Comment on How much of a risk is it for naturalized US Citizens (or those with Derivative Citizenship) to protest against the US government, compared to natural-born US Citizens? 6 days ago:
Right now, I’d say absolutely don’t do it. Especially don’t do it if you live in a red state, or are in/near one of the “flashpoint” areas/institutions that are making splashy headlines now.
It’s fucked up, but that’s pragmatic advice. If you cannot deal with the possibility of being illegally detained and deported with zero recourse, you really do need to keep your head down right now, regardless of your skin color… but at the same time, be doubly careful if you’re not white.
I can’t believe I’m writing this about the United States.

This is the traditional baby-holding pose employed by republicans. It ensures the brain never gets enough oxygenated blood, and makes the spawn easier to indoctrinate late.

And a low velocity marble would translate to a bowling ball bumping into your toe, so I’m not sure what you think the advantage would be there
- Comment on rule 1 week ago:
So, I actually shaved all body hair (save for the gentlemen’s region) in high school for big swim meets - it was a thing that the swim team did. Doesn’t actually make a meaningful difference unless you’re legitimately an Olympic-level competitor. I was always SUPER thrown off trying to sleep the night before the meet because sheets feel SO WEIRD on my skin without any hair on my limbs and chest.

- Comment on Does presidential immunity mean you're immune from bullets? 1 week ago:
I don’t even think it’s that wild of a conspiracy theory. Trump was BIG into pro wrestling for a while. Between the fact that his ear miraculously healed with nary a scar far faster than it should have and that, I call bullshit. He just got some color.
- Comment on What Did You Do Last Week 1 week ago:
Im not usually a fan of LLMs in general, but this is 100% an appropriate, reasonable, and correct usage of it.
For what it’s worth, cheers for not succumbing to despair and finding a creative solution for a bullshit task. Though (if I may be cheeky), since we’re talking about the DoD, there’s a lot of silly make-work to keep the troops busy (dig two holes, put the dirt from hole 1 into hole 2, and vice versa), and the enlisted types always seem to find a way to maliciously comply in a fun and entertaining fashion.
