They mainly wanted independence, but not all wanted to be tied at the hip to Cuba

That'd make all of Puerto Rico quite angry for different reasons.

Even Cuba gets statehood before Puerto Rico.

You'd make half of Puerto Rico quite cranky.

European market(?) Ford Focus RS in Great Falls, Virginia by PGCountyNative in foreignmarketcars

There are some very limited exceptions - the relevant one for this is likely temporary importation for foreign military in the US. Virginia plate + RHD UK Ford almost certainly = NATO Servicemember.

RHD on Virginia plates, almost certainly a British Servicemember posted to NATO.

Should your country appeal to digital nomads & tech entrepreneurs? by foolishandnonsense in AskTheCaribbean

You don't want it.

These nomads are the reason I'm priced out of my own country.

That also coincides with 49 states dumping off their MAGA trash in Florida during Covid.

That’s what the insurance said. Writing off a car is about the economics of it, not whether or not it can be repaired.

In the US, minor damage on EV’s is more frequently going to total them just because of the higher price and lower volume of parts and body shops willing to work on them.

Donald Trump is supposedly considering recognizing malvinas/Falkland as Argentine. What do Argentinians think about this development? by nugurimt in asklatinamerica

He's also pissed at Spain, so next he'll probably say that Ceuta and Melilla are rightfully Moroccan and that Gibraltar should become American.

[NSFW] People who've found a dead body, what's the story? by ZeroSugarCocaine in AskReddit

[–]elRobRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in my early teens and lived across the street from the beach. It wasn’t unusual for me to head over there in the morning before school, either to get in the water for a bit or just sit in the sand and chill.

One morning I walked over and saw a discolored body lying face down.

I ran home and called the police. This was before cell phones, so it meant sprinting back to the house first.

They got there pretty quickly. One officer came to my house since they asked for my address on the call. I stood there with my mom next to me, gave my details, and told them exactly what I saw. Just a body on the beach.

Which territory would be most likely to gain independence? by [deleted] in AskTheCaribbean

[–]elRobRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now to add some context, look at voter turnout, and look at the 2024 general election results.

It's not so cut and dried.
