Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

If you are born in a small country, you're stuck in a small geographic area out of a massive world. I mean sure you can travel, but its really hard to permanently move somewhere unless you have special skills or something.

If your country goes through autocratization, you kinda fucked.

I wish the future just have one "Worldwide Schengen".

I mean, right now we have: visas, passports, citizenships, like wtf. So tribalistic...

Humans should be able to move as freely between countries as money is allowed to.

This might surprise you, but there are actually a lot of rules about when and how money is allowed to move between countries, starting with the fact that you’re generally not allowed to bring more than $10,000 in cash with you when crossing an international border.
