Especially the media from outside us

I’d love it if they just went like “man walks nude in white house” and then show a picture of some guy walking around in a white house, focussing on the headline instead of the body of the text

The Onion can’t compete with this

Don’t spoil The 100

Might not be the year to break laws though, considering even judges can’t save you

You could register on couch surfing, it might be a good place to meet people once you start exploring options in Europe. You can also ask questions and advice, there is also events organised by people so it works a bit like a forum/ social media platform. You don’t have (the intent) to host or stay with someone to use it as as a source of local info: https://www.couchsurfing.com/

Also maybe this is valuable (maybe less if you’re only interested in moving around in the Schengen area): https://www.passportindex.org/passport/united-states-of-america/

Well I’m sure as hell not gonna forget, can they just stop already

I read the headline and couldn’t believe it

O thought you meant power-broker as in energy-seller, but I guess you mean like being the spider in the web

How do you become a power broker if you are a net-importer unlike Russia and the US who produce more then they consume?

More on this here for anyone interested:

I agree with you about the severeness of this event over the others (except for covid, none of those crises were global for example), but during each of those crises I’ve heard experts say these are things that just happen ‘once every century’ with an example of how that thing happened less than a century ago. Just like once-in-a-century floods, although they are definitely not as global (imagine that!). The only thing thing I haven’t dealt with twice so far is a pandemic, although if you look at what’s happening in the us that might also not take another century.

I hope so too, but my guess is that the most you can get is them trying harder to do it undetected. Gathering, spreading, controlling and using information seems to be their only modus operandi for getting others to do what they want.

My condoleances. I hope your city and state will come out the other end unharmed.

But we also had the banking crisis, the euro crisis, the refugee crisis (which wasn’t necessarily economic), COVID (which wasn’t only economical) then the gas crisis / inflation crisis / cost-of-living crisis or whatever you call what happened in '22/'23 and now we have the Trump crisis / Tariff crisis or whatever you want to call the mess in right now. Sure they are all related in some way just like the world wars were related to the great depress but it sure is not feeling once-in-a-century. Hell, this one doesn’t even feel once-in-a-decade.

Edit: I now see the article writes about a once in a century economic shock, which I would say is a lot less bad than a crisis, but ok.

:( what is you’re country getting?

Either statisticians don’t know what centuries are or someone rigged this one

Even 3 months ago I’d agree with you, but if I see how much unthinkable stuff Trump did get done. Who knows he’ll invade Mexico, kidnaps the gangs and then hires them to take control of Canada’s oil fields & pipelines. Or hires Russians to throw Canadian politicians and oil field owners out of windows until Canada surrenders.

Europe here, we need it too

That sure is a good thing and we’re going the right direction, sure, but globally we are still burning more fossil fuels than ever and also the effect fossil fuels have on the climate take 20 years to kick in (don’t ask me for details IANA scientist), so now we’re experiencing the damage we did until 2005 so yeah brace yourselves
