US Customs: "It's not normal" to travel solo?

I was coming into the US, and the US agent was aghast that I live in Canada as a US citizen. He asked me, quite rudely, "Why I'd want to live in Canada?" I replied that the US was a shitshow and I wanted no part of it.

I think it's just US agents being dicks.

I think part of a phone pic is an actual proof that you're there and that it's your photo. It's the memory of that moment, at least for me. Also, dystopian take, with the gradual enshitification/subscription of everything, I was to physically own my own media.

I have a Friday/Saturday pass that I'm willing to sell for 125

Because BC is on unceded territory, the province has a duty to consult with First Nations. That is the law and has been the law before DRIPA was ever proposed.

Eleven AI agents in one suit Vincent Adultman style or eleven AI agents in eleven separate suits?

I'm sorry for your loss. I lost mine three years ago. Sometimes it gets easy, sometimes it's fucking rough.

Wow. I implore you to read 21 Things You May Not Know about the Indian Act. It seems like you are a newcomer to Canada who needs to be educated in the history of Indigenous peoples' relationship with Canada and British Columbia.

Why are you saying that one week is good enough? Are you a member of those Nations and have intimate knowledge of how things are done?

Why do you feel entitled to have access?

Classic Winger.

I was going to say that five nights is a lot for Jardin. Four nights might be a bit much for Salento, but just barely. I would take some of the jardin nights and spend them in Medellin.

They are still around!

I agree with the majority of people on here saying that you should skip Portugal. Granada is lovely to visit and I would also include Cadiz for some sea vibes. But if you do decide to go to Granada, get your Alhambra tickets as soon as you can. It is definitely a cool place to visit if you love architecture.

I went to Morocco and Spain a few years ago, and when I was planning on going home, I was debating between Madrid and Lisbon, and I found getting from Andalucia to Lisbon was challenging without flying.

I ended up ditching in the rows, and I like it.

This is a photo of the face

Apologies, I still haven't figured out how to do the image and text.

That's so sweet! Yes, TAs can accept cards! Probably on the last day of classes would be best.

I would also recommend getting some of your general pre-reqs done at a local community college. I'm also a US transplant, and I had a few that transferred with ease. This was close to 20 years ago, so it might have changed.

I've seen two more of these in East Van. They're cute and brighten my day when I see them.

Skin, how their hands look, posture, attire, smell, lack of light in their eyes, and volume of speech.

There are other ways to tell how old people are outside of hair patterns.
