A friend of mine had Nitro silently activated on her account. No payment method attached, no transactions, just Nitro. They emailed support who replied with "Oh it's our new promotion! You get to try it for free, no need to pay or add your card. We'll ask for your money once it's done."
Which is absolute batshit evil drug dealer energy. I bet they rolled that promo out while the CFPB's corpse was still warm.
Just wait until our first harvest season without immigrants!
"The Guitarists" is basically my favorite genre of music tbh
and their kids don’t get to go to school anymore.
This part is actually a feature. You think desperate farmers are going to let crops rot in the field while their kids attend school? And that's just family farms! Just wait until the inner city high schools start getting tapped for factory farms!
Negative income tax solves the "rich people getting 12k/yr they don't 'need'" issue. Beaurocracy/overhead has already been mentioned as another reason.
Drag them too long and you may find your feet shackled. Plus you could potentially move back later on, depending on how things shake out. Stay safe!
Yeah, that's what I've found so far as well, mostly crap postings (though frankly it feels little different in the US). I've had Sweden in mind for awhile, have done some digging and have the Pimsleur Swedish course downloading. Found an email for an aerospace professor with research in my field of interest but haven't reached out yet. Did reach out to a former professor/research lead to pick his brain about emigrating in general this morning but haven't heard back yet.
Frankly though, the career, mission, dream I was striving for is in the hands of a manchild throwing fascist salutes at the US presidential inauguration and that pisses me the fuck off. I'm trained as an engineer but am not opposed to wearing multiple hats, Ukraine looks like it could use a hand and I'm all about mutual aid.
Yeah, this is what I've heard. I'm absolutely willing to learn a new language, but understand that 'willing to learn' and 'already knows' are two different things. Do you know of any websites that aggregate job postings with visa sponsorships?
Germany would be pretty excellent actually, the part of Wisconsin I grew up in has a long German heritage. I did look into it, but my German ancestors came over in the 1850s which appeared to disqualify me from automatic citizenship. Are there websites or recruiting companies that specialize in finding jobs in the EU for foreigners? Thank you!
Reject urb-spreading!
High density, mixed-use, walkable neighborhoods for whoever wants to actually live a healthy urban life.
