I think Monaco is a different country, but I’m not sure about Schengen at the time and how it works for ships. I vaguely remember the ships captain has to tell customs when they approach a harbor with foreigners and someone may come to check passports. If that was necessary at that time and they didn’t do it, but dock with you on board anyway, it was technically human trafficking, because they basically smuggled you in secretly.

Just bought some US stocks that I thought were too expensive earlier. As a EU citizen: Thanks Trump, for making stocks cheap again 😂

Maybe I’ll use the dividend to buy a few eggs 🤣

I wish

the ICE detained some foreign looking words

Until it adopted them, because the people won. The people wanted more freedom and convinced others and it became policy.

No, Democrats are silent because they know that’s what the winning voters wanted. It’s over. They’ll maybe have a chance again in a few years. That is, if their bodies don’t end up in some mass grave.

No, that’s not true. Starting in the 70s, the US slowly pioneered freedom for many previously oppressed or discriminated groups inside the US. This started worldwide movements. Many of those groups are still oppressed or discriminated against in other countries to this day.

However, European countries overtook the US in the 90s.

Meanwhile the US is now even going backwards, led by so called Conservatives, even though, this is clearly not conservative, but retrograde.

mention egg prices

a few dozen nukes make other military strength less important. an army of a few hundred soldiers could destroy a whole other country. so nations could focus on more important things.

people who have to show up to work under business dress code often dread it and ditch it whenever possible

Sure that’s a beacon and not a balrog?
