There’s dozens of us! (I wish)

Haha…hahahaha. Please no.

It’s not in this article, there were plenty of others posted where it was mentioned.

I am saying that from the view of border control. What I read back then as advice was very mixed and seemed to depend on you having luck that the person in front of you didn’t care. Already back then without the political climate we have now.

Yeah, with you on this. I know in the past these arrangements have been very lenient but the recent political developments just show this isn’t the case anymore. It is very silly right now to admit you wanted to work on a tourist visa.

About having no bookings yet, that part was always sketchy. I went 15 years ago to the US for a 4 week trip and had only lined up the first hostel for a few days, the rest I had not planned yet, luckily got no questions but worried about it back then already… Guess this is a thing of the past now.

The treatment however is definitely over the line.

These travelers were denied entry after attempting to enter the U.S. under false pretenses. One used a Visitor visa, the other the Visa Waiver Program," CBP Assistant Commissioner Hilton Beckham said in a statement. "Both claimed they were touring California but later admitted they intended to work – something strictly prohibited under U.S. immigration laws for these visas.

Not that outrageous, other than the treatment. If you plan to work in a country, inform yourself how that works.

Now, maybe they wanted to do the “work and travel” bit that is quite popular for younger people to support their traveling. How that works with visas I don’t know, supposedly the agency setting you up with that should inform you.

So you are not wearing the big hat, I presume.

Yep, you seriously put some hand drawn picture online that says “no AI” on it and you are outraged that someone puts it through an AI image generator? Welcome to your first day on the internet.

Not a single person handing these out has actually ever the read the bible. Calling it.

Aiaiai!

In the beginning it was kinda funny. But it went downhill pretty fast, got super cringe regarding the guys trying to get girlfriends, then the creepiest one of the lot gets one. Just ugh.

Strange how he is accidentally always there when it happens, right.

Can you just buy a single month, get updates, then leave it be another year? Not sure the contract allows single months.

Thems the rules.

Figuratively, 1987.

Gotta respect the commitment.

Lemmy.floppy when?

Catbus looks awesome! The Totoro, not so much, bit too minimal for my taste.

To be fair, that was quite some time ago. Disgraceful but a different context to the movement we now have going on.
