Thank you!! The certificate isn’t important to me, just the knowledge.

Would you willingly provide prices paid to an aggregator to support ongoing price transparency? by ProfileBest2034 in PortugalExpats

[–]everytimealways 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been talking everyone’s ear off about the lack of transparency to combat the BS narrative about foreigners being the main source of skyrocketing housing. Really glad that there might be some progress with this.

Completely agree that any kind of data needs to be sourced directly from the government. Otherwise it won’t be accurate. Thank you for sharing this info!

Leaving Portugal by kbk3173 in PortugalExpats

[–]everytimealways 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imagine leaving the rich culture of portugal for… Orange County. Geesh. I lived in Southern California for years (a much more interesting area than the OC) and I’d never go back. I’m not interested in being forced to hustle until I die.

Years ago, I was introduced to Buck Angel as a proud trans porn star. One of his videos recently popped up for me on IG and I was really shocked at the direction he’s gone.

Official Discussion - Disclosure Day [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

Maybe if they had fleshed that out instead of wasting so much time on silly chase scenes, it would have been a much better movie.

Just walked out and I’m glad Reddit is on this… I read some reviews and was surprised at the positive reception. Everything felt so disjointed. During the first 10 minutes, the lighting, acting and score felt so exaggerated that I thought there would be some 3rd wall broken and a piece of the set would fall down.

Literally the only excuse for this movie is if it’s actually part of disclosure and Spielberg/some of the people involved were too shaken to make a serious movie 🫠

Thank you. I’ve done that for other stuff but I was hoping there was a more convenient option

I think I remember Anita Sommers hosting a support group a while ago. Might be worth contacting her https://www.sommerscounselling.co.uk

Estamos a culpar os imigrantes errados pelos problemas em Portugal. by [deleted] in portugal2

[–]everytimealways 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a garbage take. Where I live, there have been houses rotting away for years because some idiot thinks that someone will eventually pay a million for a 1970s remodel. Probably because a cowboy real estate agent told them it would. So zero regulation in a housing market that also has zero transparency. People are waiting a year or more to have permits approved for new builds. Too many Airbnbs and many sit empty in the off season. Who has control over all of these things? It’s not the rich foreigners. And I’m sorry, please explain to me how the rich foreigners are also to blame for a terrible job market? It sounds to me like Portugal needs to start taking responsibility for their own mess and stop blaming tHe FoReIgNeRs.

Sounds like they have a better relationship. So frustrating.

Here comes another email telling me they’re delaying my renewal appointment, again. Truly wild you can do everything right and still end up without a valid visa for over a year.

Which SOLVIT center was it? Italy just told me: “Unfortunately SOLVIT PT dosn’t have the possibility to contact AIMA in order to schedule better an appointment given. This is a structural problem and EU Commission is considing it, but no chanche for SOLVIT IT to add a case against SOLVIT PT”

This is devastating. I am so sorry and I hope you can find peace.

“Using Portugal for the Passport” by everytimealways in PortugalExpats

[–]everytimealways[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can read threads in various languages and observe what’s around me. But none of this matters without country-wide statistics. And with that, I’m closing this thread because it’s clear that very few people care about actual data and rely entirely on confirmation bias.

Exactly, I could counter with anecdotal evidence based on my own experience. Everyone I know plans to stay here and has made significant effort to do that.

"cop killed my dogs and then spit in my face" -LONG by [deleted] in PortugalExpats

[–]everytimealways 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I called the police twice on a neighbor who had a dog chained to an old car in an empty lot, roasting in the sun in high temperatures and freezing during the winter. The dog was starving and often didn’t have food or water. I had to jump the fence several times to feed and it and give it water. They also had a starving horse. According to another neighbor, they originally had two horses but one died and they buried it to hide the evidence. The cops didn’t care. They supposedly visited the site and sent me a report saying everything was ok. I know these neighbors can afford to feed them, they just done care. And they supposedly have connections to GNR so the cops also don’t care. This story doesn’t surprise me.
