that sounds a little harder than what I’m trying to pull off. I heard there’s this super secret scumbag lifehack where if an autistic person picks a country different enough from their own, their social symptoms tend to just appear as average immigrant idiosyncrasies.

I’m pretty repulsed by my own country’s culture so I’m hoping I’ll be spared that “grass is always greener” fallacy that tends to befall other expats.

take my energy, blahaj ✊ evolve to your next form

trying to emigrate. I can’t die here this sad and this alone. I’m motivated by self hate and a delusion that since I was happy one time it could happen again

that too

holy based

Couple of these here 50 states gotta go. I’m annexing them on behalf of Rhode Island. Try to fuckin stop me. Wait does anybody know my powers only work for 48 hours? Cuz otherwise I think I can bluff

my super-ignorant American take:

Pakistan, really really hates India. I hope it can be healed but I don’t know enough to dare saying how. Poor but admirable aspirations at space exploration. Zealous about parenting and proud of their culture. Probably more similar to my own background than a lot of people would feel comfortable admitting.

Qatar, rich from oil deals with America. Corrupt but it’s our fault for lavishing them while we raped the rest of the middle east for plunder. Intolerant but could probably be won over to be less outwardly hateful of new ideas since they’ve tasted wealth and desire to join the international community. The things that their religion makes them hate tend to be things that most other Abrahamic religions also hate, which could be grounds for friendship? I don’t think it works like that but it’s fun to joke.

Americans are pretty racist but these two nationalities get less hate than others. Or would if American’s bothered to learn the difference. Most of us can’t point to Qatar on a map. I hope this was amusing to read.

I have to assume so since other versions that have been “activated” the same way do. Real big shout out to you-know-who, btw. They make Microsoft software viable at all.

Unironically, yes. I was already aware of those and take them into account

Could have been worse. My first initial on reading the title was that some enshitification factory like Fandom. com or Microsoft had bought it

edit: wait nevermind. Chosen apparently is a literal enshitification company

Not that I have a strong opinion one way or the other but Linux people’s lack of self awareness or discretion has hurt its spread more than Microsoft has.

Having a teensyweensy bit of occupation with image goes a really long way

I just rage-downgraded back to 10 a couple days ago. is there any reason why I shouldn’t just keep using it after this year? are we ever going to see a risk for zero day exploits for it like happened for XP after it depreciated?
