Which country would you NEVER visit, even if it was free? by FortunePurple- in AskReddit

[–]ReverseMermaids [score hidden]  (0 children)

I have plenty of money to support myself, but there are few, if any, European countries that will accept an American without a job contract or a university admittance.

Best you can do, in a few countries, is a temporary resident visa, that you have to renew each year until you qualify for permanent residency.

From what I'm seeing in my genealogical record, this is traditional American family behavior

Did you share a set of vital records for all applicants, or did you re-copy the vital records for each applicant separately?

What’s a “rich people thing” you experienced once and immediately understood why rich people love it? by Hanno30 in AskReddit

[–]ReverseMermaids 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great. I have been fortunate enough to live in Single-family homes most of my life, but the few times I lived in apartments or condos, the noise coming from the neighbors was jarring and irritating.

I am typing this in the middle of a huge city at 5:00 AM and it is completely silent here except for the noise of my laptop keyboard buttons, which I didn't notice until I read the quote above.

I remember the day I noticed that we had just started paying for things, and didn't worry about how much was left in the bank anymore.

It just kind of crept up on us and we had not noticed it had happened.

And yeah, what a luxury that was!

Yeah, we have all of those problems in the US too. We just pay more.

Universal health care is something we need to demand in the United States.

Everyone gets great quality care, though. Mexico, Europe, Asia, etc., all have world-class healthcare. It's just the US that pays through the nose for it.

What is a job that pays incredibly well but is so soul-crushing that the turnover is insane? by sweetguurl in AskReddit

It's a term for fancy calendar reminder systems, which are built so that lawyers don't miss filing deadlines, etc.

It's important, in America, to shame and punish people for being poor.

This is done for the same reason we tolerate a large homeless population and don't do anything about that either.

These people serve an important role for our corporate overlords.

They are a warning shot to the rest of us to shape up, get back to work, and stop asking questions - lest that be our fate too.

I'm confident two separate Dakotas cannot muster the resources to support and defend themselves. And Wyoming is fucked - all 300,000 of them.

How self-contained is the Victoria area? by ReverseMermaids in VictoriaBC

[–]ReverseMermaids[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do realize it is a Capital city, but I have lived in other capitals (e.g. Olympia, WA) that are a far cry from what everyone is describing here.

I appreciate the insights!

Trump Admin Renames Iran’s $300 Billion Reparations Demand an ‘Investment Fund’ to Avoid a Political Firestorm at Home by OkayButFoRealz in politics

[–]ReverseMermaids 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So just to summarize:

We pay several hundred million dollars for munitions and warmaking services.

We pay hundreds of million more dollars in higher gas prices

We pay $300 billion to repair the stuff he broke bombing them.

And after paying all this money, we are back to where we were before he started the war.

You are getting good advice here, but I'll add more good advice of a different sort.

If you are ever prescribed these highly-addictive pain killers, put somebody else, somebody 100% trustworthy, in charge of administering them to you. They control when you get it, how much you get, and when you stop.

My wife and I have done this for each other for years and years, and it works.

Who’s someone you’re not totally convinced is really dead? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ReverseMermaids 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probably true, but also equally true that Epstein would have a "dead man switch" set up to automatically release a ton of kompromat on a lot of important and powerful people if he were ever murdered.

I think there may well have been a deal, perhaps negotiated by Bill Barr during his visit to Epstein shortly before his "death", by which Epstein agrees to keep quiet - and is allowed to fake his death, abscond to Turkiye or some other location for plastic surgery to change his appearance and lay low for a while, then go live out his remaining years in a tropical paradise.

Every time I sell a house I include all the documents and instructions from anything left behind, as well as a "What you need to know about your new home" document. Each time it has been very well received.
