Can I leave the United Sates? Norway or Switzerland would be great. Or Ireland. Or Canada. Look man, can I just get the fuck out of here with my cats?

Oh... No... I can't? I'm not a doctor, or an engineer, or a billionaire, so I'm trapped here? Cool.

Norway or Switzerland

You just happen to mention some of the only countries in Europe (Iceland and Liechtenstein complete the list) where tuition fees at university are the same for citizens and non-citizens and they are close to free. You'd have to learn Norwegian or French* tho, but that's not an unatainable goal.

*Don't learn German, Swiss-German differs as much from real German as Dutch or Danish. It's simply misleading that it's called German and not it's own language. You wouldn't understand it after you've taken German classes.

I mostly know Swiss German from drinking songs or whatever we would listen to in german class, and damn that's a wild language lol

This was a happy accident to find out when I applied to UniGe

You were expecting American style tuition fees when you went there? That must've been a pleasant surprise!

[–] bananon@hexbear.net 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah it was. I had applied to Copenhagen University too, but student visa holders don’t get many benefits and it would have cost +20k

Spain is pretty nice, that's my go to recommendation

It sure is efficient to just ask random people to deport themselves

Doge is the most incompetent tech company around

[–] mathemachristian@hexbear.net 29 points 1 week ago

i feel like the problem with doge is not their competency. i much prefer an incompetent doge over a competent one

[–] FloridaBoi@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago

I can’t imagine the intent behind it was to be “competent”; it’s all hack and slash. From a different perspective they’re perfectly competent because they’re destroying undesired things and they provide a lightning rod for public ire.

They probably want to target people who applied for “parole in place” which often applies to spouses of the US citizens.
