Tariffs will be the smallest issue here. Without illegals picking fruits, harvesting vegetables, caring for farm animals, or working in all kinds of food processing factories, food prices will go through the roof.
But that is 100% GOP strategy. People at the brink of catastrophy, those living paycheck to paycheck, are perfectly exploitable and controlable.
It is their choice, and I won’t tell them to do it or not. But in this case it would be rather futile.
Don’t take your real phone with you. Just get a cheap burner phone that you can reset after customs went through it.
So, basically exactly what Putin told Trump to do for this job.
The female MAGA-“brains” will not join, anyway, so they will continue to procreate, while the reasonable half of the country heads towards a frustrated extinction. Congratulations, feminists, to that rousing success.
The two issues with making soup without a lid: heat loss and evaporation.
The first is important as the soup must simmer, not boil. With a lid, you can easily create a mostly uniform heat, without it will probably be too cold at the top, and, as you have to feed more heat, it will most likely be too hot at the bottom.
The second is not unimportant, as you usually cook a good soup for quite some time (my beef broth takes about a day), so evaporation will be quite relevant to the overall consistency of the soup, too. Adding lost water will also add to the temperature inconsistencies.
Many people attack if a post does not reflect their world view. I have learned that in most cases, this is primarily an issue of their limited world view, and not one of my post.
Simply ignore the idiots, and, if they escalate, just block them. Don’t let them control you.
Well, you need a certain lack of intelligence to switch from Dem to Rep, so it fits perfectly.
It also fits with Trumps desire not to look to closely at Russian interference.

I read for work and fun.
I like a number of different genres, historical novels, fantasy, SciFi, thriller, and many more. No crimes or romances, and biographies are a waste of paper 99% of the time.
I’m married with adult kids, and having a family and work curbs my reading time.
I started reading digital books a few decades ago, and have roughly the same amount of real and digital books, both in the five digits range.
I’m a fast reader. As a kid, I read a few novels a day. All libraries within bike range knew me, and I rarely needed a library pass. I still read faster than others, and I switched to reading English books (English is not my native language) to intentionally cut down my reading speed to 100 to 200 pages per hour. I currently proof read and edit English books for fun.
Depends how they behave. If they behave like “Expats”, who don’t care about integrating into our society, don’t care about learning the local language even after years, they are not welcome.
If they integrate seamless (and this does not imply giving up their identity, just to make sure), and become a good member of this society, be welcome.
Reminds me of an old joke:
First dog owner: I’ve got a problem. My dog likes to chase cars.
Second dog owner: Why is that a problem? My dog does the same.
First: Yes, but my dog catches them and buries them in the garden.
November 30th. End of the year party of our LEGO user group.
Absolutely my creed. In my industrial niche, touch screen never took hold - when your action is actually (or at least perceived) important, nobody wants to rely on touch screens.
Wait until academics leave the county for greener pastures.
First I thought “WTF is period data a thing that should concern the government”, but then I noticed we are talking about the future Handmaids Tale country here.
Hardcore Trump fans will still fuck and procreate. I don’t consider sex abstinence a viable long-term strategy.
Smart move for a country with a birth rate going off the cliffs and a terminal case of xenophobism.
About language barriers: have you ever considered actually learning your host countries language?
