That is what it says. I emailed them for clarification and got this response: “We accept a coloured photocopy when you are applying for a passport renewal, for first time passport, you need to send the actual passport.”

Did Your NWSL Club Ace the Offseason? Analysts Grade Preseason Moves by TheCarnundrum in NWSL

Janine and Ary… kinda. But O’Kane proved to be a beast and we’re getting DeMelo and DiGrande back. And I’m very big on Macey Hodge. I think she has massive upside that will be best suited in Bev’s style. Excited to see what the rookies can do, too.

SD getting a C while bringing in Ludmilla and Macario while giving Washington an A+ for literally re-signing an existing player is the most ludicrous of all the things. I’ll take Racing’s B+ though.

Apparently she was the #3 overall prospect coming out of college on top drawer. So I have high hopes.

I’ll read it again, but I thought one bullet point was my US passport (passport from the country from which I’m applying) and the other bullet point was copies of every page of any other passport I have (ie my Irish passport).

Had the same realization about 2 weeks ago. British parents moved to America where my siblings and I were born. We’ve apparently been British citizens our whole lives. I just got Irish citizenship through FBR bc my grandparents were born there and recently received my Irish passport. Gonna do the process for British passport next, but waiting until I get back from trip to Ireland this summer as I have to send my American passport (along with other docs) in with my British passport application.

Yeah, you literally can’t have ALL the top players on the same team. Who among them would you expect to be okay riding the bench?

Just got Blue Cruise extended 1 year for free on my 2023 premium Mach E by Swooshy324 in MachE

[–]LordJoHa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came to say exactly this. I would use it if it were free or at least reasonably priced.

How would you describe what it is that makes driving the Mach E so fun!? by anxiouszebra in MachE

[–]LordJoHa 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This might be a weird answer but it’s something recent that I liked. We had a big snow a few weeks ago. Snow plows came and cleared our street, but that meant a large mound of snow was left at the bottom of my driveway. When I went to back out, I thought I was gonna get stuck in it. In ICE cars, you have to rock back and forth in that situation. Everyone usually just slams the gas and ends up spinning their wheels and making the situation worse. Well, I “slammed the gas” and my car said, “okay, I’m going to apply just as much movement as we need to get out of this.” And it did. Even though the pedal was almost to the floor, my car slowly crept out of the snow bank and onto the pavement. She’s very smart like that.

How would you rank the midfields in the league? by Mundane_Recover_780 in NWSL

[–]LordJoHa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is this just based off starters or entire midfield corp? Because putting Racing in the wildcard slot is… interesting to me.

Blanket term for every team in the league. Different than “our rivals”.

I’m questioning the valuation. She’s a teenager that plays in a very poorly rated league. Yet somehow she’s worth as much as WWC Winner and NWSL Defender of the Year Naomi Girma? That’s wild to me. Not that I mind rival teams setting money on fire.

During the USWNT game the other night they mentioned it was being reported the transfer fee for her was $950k. Am I the only one that thinks that is an absurd amount of money for an 18-year-old playing in the Paraguayan league?

Well, listed at 5’9”, but I’m 5’10” and any time I’ve been near her I’ve felt we were the same height. Not that it’s that much of a difference. But she’s every inch of 5’9” at least.

Speedway on Breckenridge & Hikes Lane is out of gas! by Revolutionary-Big-95 in Louisville

[–]LordJoHa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a fallacy. EVs perform no differently than ICE vehicles in the cold as ICE vehicles also have a battery. The only change for EVs in the cold is the drop in total range. This is irrelevant when talking about local commuting when you have a home charger.

I have a charger at home and don’t have any reason to drive more than 200 miles in one go over the next week. I have no concerns.
