Awesome, hope you and the wife love them! And I didn't even know about the sustainable sourcing, that's so cool to hear.

I got a set of micromodal boxer briefs a year ago because they were deeply discounted (new product launch) and they were such a game changer that I bought a few more sets at full price and threw away all my cotton ones. They all still look like the day I got them, no pilling or visible wear. They're currently the only micromodal clothes I own, but I wouldn't wear anything else for underwear.

Better yet, those states form the independent nation of Cascadia. Include southeast Alaska which is politically progressive and culturally Cascadian, and cut out the MAGA trash parts like eastern Oregon. Sign trade deals with Canada and the EU, and defensive pacts with any other sane independent nations that break off from Trump's America.

Unfortunately it's headquartered in Delaware and it's subject to US law even though their servers are in the EU.

Also try micromodal which is even softer than bamboo!

I've heard it's great, but it's based in the US.

Similar: I cut down on dairy by limiting my consumption to only the last week of every month (and I don't go crazy that week, just a wedge of Cambozola or so). My skin is clearer and has a healthy glow, and I can eat a big non-dairy meal without feeling overstuffed.

OP mentioned they have a criminal record. Canada is notoriously difficult to enter if you have a record (e.g., a single DUI on your record means you're barred for life from entering Canada). Canada also prioritizes skilled migrants and a lot of Americans don't meet the cutoff.

I'll leave for Europe (dual citizen) when things get bad enough. For all the horrible news coming out of Minneapolis, nothing really has changed locally where I live (major metro area, very progressive) and I've seen no ICE/CBP raids. I understand why some want to stay and fight, but taking up arms against our military is a death wish and this country isn't worth dying for.

I agree that for OP the SE Asia route might be the best. They should get a passport ASAP if they don't have one, and get any US university degrees converted to their foreign equivalents.

Interesting theory and I've definitely made posts and comments critical of Israel. I've switched ISPs since creating that Proton account and I wonder if they'd restrict me again (not going to try though).

I suppose you worked at every Amazon location a decade ago? I think I'll trust my girlfriend on this over some rando on here.

My girlfriend worked for Amazon doing finance stuff around a decade ago. They treated their software engineers like royalty and everyone else like robots. She said they had open bars and chefs preparing gourmet meals on demand that only the tech staff could use, while she was brown bagging her lunch every day. Maybe that's common in that industry, I don't know, but hearing that made me laugh because it sounds so Amazon.

Polis works so hard to appease the Trump regime that I'm surprised by his stance here.

That happened to me. I wasn't even on a VPN when I created my first and only Proton account, and within minutes they restricted it so I couldn't send any mail. They said I would have to upgrade to a paid account if I wanted to send mail.

I would never trust Proton after that. I'm just glad they immediately restricted my account instead of waiting until I'd switched everything over.

 

This is maddening, what am I missing? In the hamburger menu in the top left, tapping on Guest switches to my username and loads the local communities feed, while tapping on my username switches to Guest and loads the subscribed communities feed. I can't seem to do anything with either my username or Guest -- no way to view my profile, posts or comments.

How do I get to my profile, saved posts and comments?

Also, does this app have an inbox/messaging feature? I don't even plan to use it, but I don't see it anywhere. I feel like a big chunk of the app is missing.

I tried searching and couldn't find an answer.
