Hej, söta bror. I think you meant to post a reply to OP and not me.

Might be true there as well. I’ve only met, like, two french people who may or may not be from Paris.

I know quite a few who moved here (norway) from Texas, as they didn’t like how the state overall went from being traditionally conservative to radically regressive.

One of them recently got his Norwegian passport and I of course had to accuse him of forgetting the Alamo.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from working with Texans, it is that they’re Texan first, american second.

I’m 42, and I feel like I’m cosplaying and LARPing as an adult. I’m able to convince everyone but myself.

Mortage, kids, and a pretty nice career is my equivalent of a fursuit - something to hide behind in an effort to find acceptance from likeminded.

What you can do is to register with a bogus email and reach out to the admins for manual activation.

That’s what I did, but with three important caveats:

• I used all the charm I could muster.
• The admins in question are exceptionally hoopy froods.
• I had (and hopefully still have) a reasonably long track record of being active on Lemmy with little to no scumbaggery.

I’m sure I could still put on a pretty good foundation, white powder, and eyeliner, and then “misc additional black colors”.

Source: I’ve worn corpse paint to many concerts. It’s been a while, though.

Are you saying Jordan Capri lied to me during a very formative period of my life???

Note: farm-to-blackjack-table and free-range hookers. No big farma here.

Kinda random. I create new accounts from time to time (you will never guess my previous two usernames), and this time I ended up on SJW because the admins were OK with activating my account despite using abbogus email address during signup.

Years ago we tried Karate-Chess at my Dojo. It was fun as hell.

Does chess count?

Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s the guy whose job it is to redact all the damning stuff about politicians. He was planning on having christmas off, damnit!

Did he give a rationale as to why?

Is he in the files himself? Is he a slowpoke who didn’t know that his king already approved of it?

My theory: He’s on the committee that has to go over every page and redact everything.

I’d offer you an animal as symbol of your success, but I presently have none in store.

I’m a 7.62x51 kind of guy

Don’t need, don’t own, kinda want (because I like shooting), but I can’t be arsed. Besides, I really should not pick up another expensive hobby. Plus I take firearm safety very seriously, and I don’t have a practical way of keeping it safe and secure.

I still use a wallet when I’m travelling, as that’s the only time when I actually need cash. Plus it also holds my passport, seamans books, vaccine booklet, and misc other useful stuff.

When I’m home-ish I only use a card holder. It has most of my cards (duh), and that’s it really.

So THAT’S why the long face…
