But that would require travelling to the US. I'll have to pass on that until some semblance of sanity returns there. I don't expect to see that in my lifetime.
Welp, thats entirely fair.
Yeah... we're kinda all completely beyond fucked these days, over in the US.
I guess our death rattle will at least serve as the most extreme season of reality TV that's ever been created, so... woooo for that I guess...
You probabaly won't have to wait too long. At this rate, the US is going to fracture soon and as a result I predict a large part of WA will become a new Canadian territory/province.
I'm Brazilian. For the first time ever, this month I started seeing ads from the US' tourism department or something. I used to see ads from Brazilian traveling agencies that take people there, never ads directly from the US. I thought it was quite absurd to think anyone would be going there for leisure purposes any time soon, but turns out the idioms school a block from my house is taking people there every year and the 2026 group is apparently larger than usual.
