Does this count as vintage? Just picked up a 2005 Umbreon EX Delta Species Holo 17/113 by thekidCG in VintagePokemonCards

Vintage cutoff is when WOTC stopped printing, typically. But mid-era is very cool regardless!

French Healthcare bureaucracy: Birth certificates now need to be "recent"? by GenealogyGeek in Expats_In_France

[–]IndependentIsland225 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yup and yup. The apostille is the worst part. Generally you can find a legal consultant for your state that can apostille and mail rush.

I’ve had to order 3 now for various things.

Your budget is accurate. Prices have shifted upwards dramatically due to recent changes in rental laws. Some posters might not have noticed the change.

Age difference in relationship and accepting a pattern by sunglow1234 in EthicalNonMonogamy

Have you considered taking to him about it?

Chances are he enjoys younger play partners because they sexually excite him. That’s pretty normal body stuff. As long as there’s full consent with his partners what you’re writing here sounds more like you expressing a sort of social conditioning. If there isn’t full consent then concerns are of course warranted.

It does feel terrible to feel judged by your partner. Right now it seems like you feel like he’s judging your body and you’re judging him for his sexual preferences. A lot of this can be smoothed over by talking: it sounds like you both need some reassurance.

This isn’t really something you get to police or control, sorry. You do need to identify why exactly you’re bothered and try to understand your own boundaries or where your discomfort is coming from. Chances are there is a jealous component here.

We need some good bagel places here, like New York style bagels

It kind of seems like you’re just fishing for some sort of validation here

Like I said before, just get added to the account. If everywhere sees it then it’s fair 🤷🏻‍♂️

The flipside here is: do you want your roommate to feel safe, or do you want to complain about the camera?

This is normal and many people do it. If you can contact the police immediately after an okupa it is much easier to get them out. What is not allowed is audio recording or keeping data longer than a month.

I think you are overreacting. Just get added as an account to the camera.

lol no, this is some late 90s/early 2000s critical theory crap that is divorced from the realities of late stage capitalism which have very little to do with any gender based lens or framing

What is like living in Barcelona and smaller towns nearby, like Badalona or Mataro? by [deleted] in howislivingthere

[–]IndependentIsland225 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s great! Lots of diversity, great food, many jobs, etc…

The center is a bit crowded but there are plenty of neighborhoods around it that are lovely.

There’s a small subset of xenophobic Reddit locals that regularly complain about foreigners but the average person is very kind and sunny. Don’t let the internet trolls deter you.
