I don't know exactly how rough the market is now, but I've been happily using my moto g8 power (intl) that I bought for 170$ in 2020 when I lost my old one. Motorola makes some very good, cheap phones that can also be rooted (I'm not knowledgeable on this, I just use pared down apps on mine because I mostly value the 3 day battery life and regular phone/email features).

I looked into redmi back then but even w/o the US ban it wasn't worth it.

Works just fine, just make sure you do your mail forward with the paper form, keep your payments current, and do the verification of the forward in person as is required. Fwiw you can use any address you have access to to start the PO box or other accounts as well, even if you won't have that access for long. Source: I do mail

The good news is that your post isn't really something you have to worry about(social media is propagandizing this), it's only going to impact state funded housing for people and aim to funnel money to private prison contractors for any homeless people who assault ICE or w/e other federal agents. The bad news is that its rooted in hate and going to damage section 8 housing access, generally making people poorer/more worse off in the long run.

  1. use an address you can access for at least a week
  2. get your initial documents
  3. go paperless and have the mail all RTS

Job done, nobody will bother you and you can use electronic statements as proof for accounts. Just don't commit fraud with them and nobody cares.

He's not? The EO is theater, nothing changed but that. Nobody homeless is copping federal charges anyways unless they assault feds. The OP is also sensationalizing things, you can use a valid address and say you receive a bill at it to claim residence aka not homeless (even if you functionally are). I see it all the time. Often people stop paper bills and use electronic stuff as proof of residency.

I'm imagining Mads Mikkelsen at different sizes and scales. Once he becomes as big as godzilla, there's no hope.

The good thing is that the score doesn't matter and you can still talk to people.

It's a perm, but for the youths!

For unrelated reasons, yes, but I'm considering the possibility that payment processors know they'll be asked to prove they aren't facilitating illegal transactions, and may have asked Valve to make purchase details available to them for that purpose. If Valve agreed to remove content from the store instead of blowing up user privacy, that would be a win.

But it might just be the PPs being dickheads.

Totally agree.

Having written supremely fucked up content doesn't mean he has "known pedophilic tendencies". People have made assumptions about authors who wrote all forms of horror or produced other media because they are repulsed by the content of the media. As an example, Rob Zombie has made films about mass murder, rape, incest, and the guy is a friendly vegan.

Without knowing his intent, I think this is an example of poor phrasing. If anything that's supported by his later tweet:

Did Epstein traffic young girl(sic)? Yes, of course. Is there a client list? Doubtful. Conspiracy fodder.

For sure, but he doesn't exactly have to care if people read their own meaning into it instead of what he originally intended. I think it's telling where people's biases are if they assume he's a pedophile for a tweet like this. It's way more important to go after the real ones than the people who fail one person's personal purity test.

Or he's mocking the administration for insisting they had a list and suddenly heel turning on it. Given who he is, one of those is a bit more likely, don't you think?
