portugal é mais facil de tirar e menos caro q cidadania italiana. vou começar a olhar meus documentos para tirar também, pessoas q conheço q moram em PT estão se dando bem mas querem mudar para outro país da europa.

na minha opinião, tire cidadania PT, aprenda espanhol e vá morar na espanha. todos os europeus preferem a espanha como pais para emigrar. br q conheci e morarma lá falam bem de lá, é só nao morar em madrid/barcelona q o custo e qualidade de vida sao excelentes.

Eu tenho um trisavô italiano e até sei que barco que ele chegou e tal, mas a cidadania portuguesa pra mim acho que é mais confusa (acho que era a avó da minha avó que era portuguesa, então é mais rolê)

How expensive is it to live there? Is it comparable to the US or Canada, or the UK? My sister currently lives in Canada, and it's expensive there but she married wealthy lol
Do you know how the situation is in Cork? Here, the violence also changes for city to city. My own city wasn't that bad compared to some, but it got so much worse after the pandemic. I live in a relatively good middle class neighborhood, and yet we have a lot of homeless around (nothing against them, they're not violent or anything, it just makes me feel like shit to see people living in such conditions) and there was recently a shooting where I usually catch my bus home, which I have never seen happen in my 30 years living in this place. I've never been mugged tbh, but my sister has not been so lucky and even had a gun pointed to her head once. (and firearms are illegal here kek)
Sorry to blog, but that's the kind of stuff that really makes me want to move to a safer place. I wish I could walk home at night, but I can't even do that around my city unless it's like 15 minutes max at a non-shitty place

Are there even work opportunities for immigrants? Or maybe a scholarship?

Pretty expensive. Housing crisis is pretty bad here. Check out daft.ie for an idea of what rent is like.

>Do you know how the situation is in Cork?
I would consider Cork safer than Dublin and the second best city after Galway (there's only four so it's not a big competition kek). I don't walk home at night but some of my friends do. Shootings are pretty rare. The only gun I've seen irl was my farmer uncles.

>Are there even work opportunities for immigrants? Or maybe a scholarship?
There's a studying English Visa you can get

Alternatively I work with a Brazilian woman and she got EU citizenship through an Italian grandfather. If you have any EU heritage you might be able to do something similar. If your in the EU you can work in any of the countries.

>No but in Gnosticism the Christian God is the same as the devil because he made the universe to endlessly torment us. Technically Jesus is still the son of God there because we all are, it’s just God is the most infinitely abusive parent that could ever exist. Jesus isn’t the Devil there though, it’s the Christian God

In Gnosticism, this is specifically the God of the Old Testament, the Hebrew God Yahweh. They refer to it as the Demiugre, who creatd our specific plane of existence. The God of the New Testament, God the Father, is a separate entity, the 'true' source of all creation extending far beyond our known existence and is still believed to be inherently good. In their belief system, Jesus Christ is the son of God the Father, come about to expose the ancient evil Demiurge and show us the true path to escaping this reality. Excuse my autism but just wanted to make that distinction.

Yeah idk if I believe in Gnosticism but it’s super interesting.

Not years but weeks. Which was odd because normal dreams feel like they last 30min max for me.
I was living in a lake surrounded by mountains. For sleeping I would climb up to a cave. The rest of the time I would just swim in the lake. I had no thoughts or desires to be somewhere else, I was perfectly happy with that life. Very tranquil. After waking up I was disappointed my real life is so full of BS.

Reminds me of that Reddit story with the lamp. I’ve never had any dreams like that but I’ve read a few, apparently if you take Seroquel it will give you dreams like that. The spiritual community says it’s past life memories and such but I think it’s just your brain not filtering out dreams personally. From what I know when you sleep you’re always dreaming you just don’t remember it all

>AUDHD LGBTABCQ+- permachild think that they alone can turn a profit in a sinking ship? AAs aren't a full time job, even getting a shitty part time weekend job would provide some stable-ish income

They don't want that! Artists with a little of common sense and who actually studied how the art field works know that art doesn't pay a living unless you are a million artist or in a studio. Sheltered tifs are sheltered tifs, that's it. They see people online making money with yaoi ships and go "Oh, I like yaoi too!" but cannot grasp the idea of merch or actually making art to sell, they draw their yaoi bois standing next to each other and then cry because they fail to understand that that's not the yaoi per se that sells but how marketable the piece is and they lack self reflection so instead of improving their art and selling skills, they cry "hater!" and play pity. Anyone with a bit of common sense knows how nightmarish is to keep up with FOTM merch and the best way to sell shit is being original and survive on your own brand but they're not creative so they don't do that. They attend every shitty con for exposure but don't realize that you can have it too if you're consistent with your art and posting it online, getting to actually know and engage with other people. They think that claiming themselves to be disabled due to anxiety and some fybro that magically dissolves in con (and thus failing to realize that anxious people don't go to cons or even show their faces), people will feel more inclined to buy to "support" them when it's just feeding into their delusion. I know a lot of normal sellers who use their regular paycheck to pay for a little stock merch con but it's all extra income, they won't go bankrupt or get eager to do discounts the day after the con to get back the money spent and they are chill about it, meanwhile these tifs and autistic fandom girlies are constantly and chronically online to catch the waves of the FOTM anime, sad. I saw a tif I know speedrunning Dandadan merch lol. They could use the hotel + con money to advertise themselves on social media if they really want that sweet exposure, minus getting out of home or do shitty merch that will get trashed in a month. They don't think long time and they most likely do merch that they will never use or wear in the first place and that's one of the biggPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I love love love merch that looks like videogame items like cute food, potions and weapons, little fairies etc. I usually browse for original merch and if something catches my attention I try to replicate the topic but not the style.
For the overrated cute trend, I also like gotchis but og gotchis, not gotchi+random fandom. I also love anything cyber tribal and funky cute gore (I only wear it on my free days/in theme outfit ofc). I wish people made some catholic aesthetic stuff like angels and crosses in pastel blue instead of bblack and blue because I like that jpn trend with blue and white kawaii angels, idk how to call it.

>DEBORAH DORBERT WAS five months pregnant in November 2022 when she learned that her baby was not going to live. Late in the second trimester of her pregnancy, a scan revealed that his kidneys and lungs were failing to develop; a specialist diagnosed the baby with Potter syndrome, a condition that occurs when there is a lack of amniotic fluid in the uterus. He would not survive more than a few hours past birth, Deborah and her husband, Lee, were told.
>Her doctor advised that the safest option for Deborah would be to induce, and end the pregnancy as soon as possible. But because of restrictions that had taken effect in Florida that summer, a week after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, that option was not available to her. Instead, Deborah was forced to carry her pregnancy to term: three and half more months, living with the knowledge that her child was going to die.
~~~
>Deborah: Shortly after nine o’clock, I remember my doctor handing me a baby boy that was blue and cold. His eyes were closed and he wasn’t crying. And I remember her putting him on my chest, and the next thing I hear is him gasping for air. I just felt numb and just cried because my son was suffocating. He was struggling to breathe, and not knowing how much pain he was feeling, and feeling like there wasn’t anything I could do. 
>The room was just so quiet and dark and just cold, and I remember my husband walking him back over to me, saying, “I think he has passed.”
>He laid him on my chest, and the nurses came over to listen to his heartbeat. There, the nurses said that they could not hear his heartbeat, but they had to get the NICU [neonatal intensive care unit] doctor to come down to confirm, so the NICU doctor came down to listen, and she could hear just a very faint heartbeat, and she went ahead and did an exam on him.
>And by the time she was done with his exam, he had passed. He took his first and last breath on my chest. He was only alive for 94 minutes.

A thread for the discussion of personal finances.

>give and seek advice
>celebrate financial accomplishments or luck
>share what you've been doing to save or make more money
>discuss investments

Feel free to go as in depth about your financial situation as you wish to paint a clearer picture. Don't feel embarrassed to share whether you have -$37 in your account or you're a trust fund baby.

Some basic rules:
>no shitting on each other's financial status
>no shitting on each other's job(s) or other means of income

It's fine to debate the merit of someone's financial advice or point out things someone could do better to save more, but don't derail by shitting on someone for being too poor or rich for your liking, or for earning money in a way you disapprove of.

I got the amount I can spend without feeling too irresponsible down already, it's more about the fact that money just lying around in the bank won't do anything for me, so I'm trying to determine whether I should dump everything I have left at the end of the month into index funds, when I have no other use for it at the moment, anyways, or if it's smart to save some of it, still lol.

Usually the former.
Physical is safer because you have full control over it, but paper gold(stocks, ETFs, etc) is more convenient. If you plan on holding for a long time, physical is better, plus it may be more tax efficient depending on where you live. You can get either coins or bars, the price of a bar is determined by its gold content, whereas a coin with the same amount of gold will cost more due to numismatic value. Apparently coins are easier to sell, especially the well-known ones.

I'm not sure how it works in countries other than mine, but what if you kept some amount in cash and put the rest into multiple short-term (like less than a year) bonds/t-bills/equivalent? You could space them out in such a way that every month one of them matures and you get the money back + interest, and decide whether to put it into a new bond to keep the rotation or spend it if the times are rough. Takes some time to set up but sounds like a good system to me. And after it is set, the new money can go into riskier financial instruments like funds and stocks
