No - that strikes me as an end game move. It’ll enable me to cross the border, and if shit hits the fan that’ll be good enough to then figure out the next steps.
I would need to do WAY more research on prospective point-B’s before diving into dual citizenship.
That said, I don’t really know shit about expatriating, so if anything I just said stands out as glaringly wrong, please do school me!
At least I got chicken!
Honorable mention to Charlie the unicorn.
I got a passport, and am wrapping up a degree in nursing.
It’s not necessarily my intention to jump ship as soon as I graduate, but knowing that it’s an option will be a great comfort.
Other than that, I stopped eating eggs.
Neither A nor I, in fact!
IDK, my standards are pretty fucking low as long as we’ve got Trump acting as the contrast against ‘the other guy’.
At this point I’d settle for a magic 8 ball as president.
Stupid fantasy, but hear me out: Trump’s bullshit successfully kills the two term limit: Obama jumps on the opportunity to run again, and the two compete for a 3rd term. We then get to enjoy watching Trump lose to a black man.
Many yes but to the Elon goal is can deepen kill yourself with plus one messages.
Hey a dopamine hit is a dopamine hit. Someone liking your post enough to upvote it is basically getting an internet first-bump. It’s not much, but getting that approval from people does feel good.
…we all have the super-power of literally administering a tiny dose of dopamine to nearly anyone in the world.
If God is real, he’s evil.
…could he just skip to the part where he feeds himself a bullet just like daddy-Hitler, already?
The real shitpost is always in the shitpost.
There are definitely risks, hence the infection warning at the end there. Mechanically speaking, it’s pretty simple… think of like a pump action squirt gun ‘super soaker’ or w/e from when you were a kid, except the end of the gun loops back into the tank it pulls from: so you push the mechanism to build up pressure, then pull the trigger to release that pressure.
Instead of pump it’s a button over a one way valve that’s on the reservoir that hangs out in your scrotum like a 3rd testicle. That’s filled with a few mL’s of saline, and when you press the button it squirts the saline into prosthetic balloons that match the shape of your corpora cavernosa - the two chambers that run the length of your shaft that normally fill with blood to enable fun times. Anyway, push the button until it’s hard, engage in fun times, then push another button that’s basically just another one way valve to release all the saline back into the reservoir. Everything is internal - you feel the buttons through the skin of your scrotum.
There are pictures (animated - nothing gory or anything… it does depict a penis and this is a sfw thread, so I won’t direct-post it here, but it’s about as sfw as a picture of a penis can be… high-school health class textbook type of image) in the link I posted down toward the bottom of the page if you’re curious.
I always thought it was kinda cool - we can restore a pretty significant part of someone’s life with just a couple balloons, tubes, and some saline, and it’s not like most prosthetics where we’re replacing something (i.e., total knee replacement uses a prosthetic femoral head and tibial plateau, but before we can place those, we break out a powered saw, and things like a hammer and chisel to cut out the original femoral head and tibial plateau… it’s gory as fuck). The penile prosthesis just kinda sits in space that the body already provides.
So, if your doc hasn’t already discussed stuff like this with you, you’ve got a shitty doc. But, 100% there are treatments for that.
I’m a surgical tech, so my brain always jumps straight to the surgical option - there are probably things to try first, but just in case nothing else works and your vasculature really insists on being a… well, dick; there are still options:

I’ve been in a few of those surgeries, and it’s literally just putting a balloon in the chambers that usually fill with blood to produce an erection. You fill the balloon manually from an internal reservoir when to get it up; then release the pressure back into the reservoir when you’re all done.
In any case, sexual health is part of health: don’t let social anxiety or fear of awkward or anything like that get in the way.
And if you go the surgical route, FOLLOW YOU PRE AND POST OP INSTRUCTIONS TO THE T!!! I’ve also done a revision of one of those implants cuz our patient didn’t keep himself clean during the immediate post op period, and got an infection that is the stuff of nightmares. Definitely don’t be that guy.
What about the pilots tho
In unrelated news, the graphics for the Switch 2 are fucking incredible - look at this shit! This is wild!
This seems to happen way more often than actually eating the onion, cuz reality is more ridiculous than most of what they put out.
Puking an onion? Idk what to call it.
That is definitely an intimidating step. I speak a little Spanish, but was never particularly good at it, and that’s hailed as one of the ‘easy’ languages. …'course, the stakes are a tad higher now than when I was studying that stuff in highschool…
