>>2897327Guess you enjoy having your luggage tossed around and destroyed by some brown welfare airport worker

Are you too poor to afford to replace it?>>28973303rd world scum smuggle disgusting "food", illegal shit, and products harmful to the country they're going to (diseases and invasive species).

This question is for US passport holders only: have any of you been asked political questions at the airport by CBP when returning to the states from abroad? I got grilled last time about what I thought of the president and other issues while they were searching my stuff. Just wondering if something similar happened to anyone else.
>>2897379Things that happened only inside your /pol/cel imagination: the post.
>>2897073I never even had to empty my pockets on this last flight out of Bangkok, let alone take off my shoes. Only had to pull my laptop out of my bag for transfer security in Taipei. It's been so long since a terrorism that airports are getting careless and prioritizing quick passage over intensive scrutiny.>>2897118Another mentally ill maniac with delusions of being so important that he believes government is spending millions to track and surveil him personally through a network of gangstalkers. >>2897119I was coming back from Colombia on Delta airlines, the first trip on my new passport. Two plainclothes agents stopped everyone in the deboarding chute and made them show documents before being allowed to enter the airport. They were mega assholes, reading my personal diary out loud to each other and stuff. >>2897117They haven't inspected my stuff since 2020 either, even when I entered overland from Mexico. It's like I got put on a DHS Trusted Traveler list after years of being wrongfully placed on the Yellow Alert list with my old passport thanks to a travel history of exclusively Mexican border excursions. Man did I get the third degree and the extensive search every time I entered from Mexico between 2016 and 2020.
>>2897374>>2897379It was under the last two presidencies. Nobody told me why. I assume because i argued about politics with the wrong person (i'm not red or blue aligned)>>2897514Jannies do it for free. So does the neighborhood watch and infraguard. What exactly do you think happens when you get put on a list? It's the equivalent of your neighbors and the local PD getting to read not only your personal diary but your text and phone call highlight reel every day. I hope it never happens to anyone in this thread, jannies included.
>>2897578>It's the equivalent of your neighbors and the local PD getting to read not only your personal diary but your text and phone call highlight reel every day. I hope it never happens to anyone in this thread, jannies included.let them read the stupid cat memes i send to roasties. who cares.
>>2897600They add to it and try to get whoever you're talking to to participate. I won't talk any more about it bro. Just hope and pray that it never happens to you or anyone you care about. Go on r/gangstalking and read it through the lens that the "schizos" are either astroturfing deniability merchants or the victims that couldn't handle the insane amount of pressure they put on you. They try to drive a wedge between you and your family/friends, your god, your sense of self, anything they can take away from you. The goal is your suicide or imprisonment bro. They don't fuck around. Go photocopy your diary and leave a stack of them out in the street and see how many people grab a copy and you'll realize how many will mob up on someone for free just because they can get away with it. Doesn't matter if they like you or know it's bullshit. Theyre like vultures.

I have 0 interest in going to any country in Africa. Like why would anyone want to go there?
>>2897651I want to fuck niggers, but need plausible deniability, so I go do some safari on a couple of days and take pictures for the family. The rest of the time I drown in musky nigger pussy and fuck like a rabid animal.

I want to post about my travels on social media, but I don't want to use facebook or instagram or twitter, cuz I don't like how the sites are run - is there a meaningful alternative? Tiktok you can only post videos I want to just post photos and text too.
>>2895789nobody here gives a shit about the places I go, not sure what you are looking for but it's not what I do
>>2896505>Not sure what>It's not
>>2893693I think the way to go is to make a semi-anonymized profile that only your friends know about. Avoids the random relatives and people you don't know well, but couldn't decline their friend request, from jumping into the comments on every post.But honestly, just make a blog. It's current year and anyone can grab a domain and bang out a little website so you can write and post pictures. Some randos will find it, but also you can just link it in your socials.
>>2897231What about facebook? There's lots of super knowledgable local boomers on there and I want to tap them for info but almost everyone uses their real full name on facebook and I don't wanna I guess you could use a fake name but it would be weird if you met them and you weren't that person I just am not sure what to do. I sorta used social media in 2005-2006 and gave up. >But honestly, just make a blog. It's current year and anyone can grab a domain and bang out a little website so you can write and post pictures.I just get so exhausted traveling and timing is so tight getting to bed early it would be hard to write and organize a blog and travel I guess the appeal of Instagram is short form blogging.
>>2897231OP wants a community, but without any of the huge amount of effort it takes to build one from scratch. Even if you went that route you still need to bootstrap it from normieslop sites. Word of mouth will get you a bit of the way but only once there's enough people to justify it.
Any recommendations? I've seen these trtl pillows being recommended, wondering if anyone has any experience and think it's worth the $50
>>2897420It's worth it if you fly or travel by bus a lot. Better than those foam shaped ones by far.
>>2897420Neck pillows are doodooshit. don't bother using it. I've used it as a body pillow every time instead.
>>2897495Wouldn't let me use mine in the exit row today fuck I've been carrying that shit for nothing
>>2897420Jesus christ they're $50 now?they're good because they keep your neck stiff like a neck brace, nothing like those retarded donutsI like to put it on my chest and rest my chin against it so I can tilt my head forward.
>>2897495They are shit, its more neck protection than a pillow, even on a cold ass plane the heat makes it unpleasant by default.You want a camping pillow, not inflatable, one of those rectangle shredded latex or latex chunk ones, compact down to nothing. More versatile, with a window seat is bliss and can sleep anywhere with it rather than that other shit. Also it's funny watching people who have those shitty things when you pull it out and its nearly a full size pillow kek
What should I do in Finland for 3 weeks in September?
>>2896736cont'-Kallio: The best neighborhood for bars and drinking. There's a lot of young people but as per the Finnish drinking culture also plenty of old drunkards. Nowadays also a growing number of zombie style junkies doing alpha-pvp.Imatra: A quiet town on lake Saimaa 2.5h by train from Helsinki.-The river Vuoksi running through city center is called a national landscape. There's a dam and a hydropower plant also right in the city center. Most evenings they run water from the dam and you can watch the water rushing through the channel. Also in the center are glacial potholes or giant's kettles.-Valtionhotelli: I'd stay in this hotel, a jugend style palace building from 1903.-It's also a hotspot for gravel cycling (or cross country skiing in the winter if you're into that xD).

Sure the rent here is cheap but anything for a gym focus is actually fucking insanely stupidly priced no wonder everyone's a twig here. Everyone posting made it sound like they were total gymrats and this place was a hidden gym. Why did this place get so much praise? I leave in a couple weeks and my gains are mid at best even though my gym routine is solid I am spending insane amounts on food to hit calorie and protein goals. Is this place full of DYEL's who think as long as they aren't walshart hogs they are /fit/?

Hello everyone. Can you tell me where I can go to escape from a possible mobilization? I'm from Russia with a Crimean passport.
So you supported Russia's illegal annexation until it personally affected you? Having trouble getting gasoline?
>>2897367Someone tell this anon to go run away to some Ukrainian controlled place but I am too dumb to do that.
>>2897372he can probably go to Belarus and then Turkey. Could end up in Armenia, low cost of living. I knew a Belarusian who didn't have refugee status but was able to escape their dictatorship (during the protests) recently by working in Thailand.

Vs a hotel. Worth it overall or is it a headache?-How much cheaper- 20%?-Are they typically shit rooms next to loud dorms so you’ll hear partying all night?-I’m 35 solo traveling, though fit 12% bf, not bald/creepy, above average, look younger. Would it be weird to be in a hostel even in a private room? I’d be open to banging younger girls in the hostel if the signals are clear, but not going to inject myself autistically in their social scene
>>2897388>you’re a larping incel and your thread is discredited >No>noooooooo you can’t do that, just shut up and let our fat fingers type incel at you so we don’t feel bad about ourselves
>>2896628The more functioning societies in the world. You know, the normies, the ones pushing the world along because there is no alternative besides destruction.
Random Indians on the street are so much friendlier to a white guy than the IT grad jeets who stay in Indian hostels. They only want to talk IT and business, nothing else. Two noteworthy hostel friends I met (in Malaysia and Los Angeles) were from Sri Lanka. They see meeting people and breaking ice as the whole point of travel. But neither were IT snobs with 1 lakh laptops.
>>2897358Still posting that photo from some /fit/ thread huh?I'm 36, stay in hostel private rooms, never have issues. Then again I gym regularly, have a full head of hair no weird hairline BS, low BF on my face anyways, and a slew of hobbies so it's a non issue. I like them because I get a kitchen that isn't BS, good place to work, and often closer to public transportation than some alternatives. As long as you aren't trying to hit on someone barely legal as a +30 year old you're fine.
>>2897409Why would you want to talk to any of them
>people just blatantly ignore thisIt’s time to discuss if it’s based or they should be violently beaten for not following the rules
>>2897511>90% of Americans actually make effort to be polite and considerate of othersLiterally nothing more infuriating that Asians standing 5 atoms away from each other and even if you ask in the local language to get by they think that is optional.The consistency of every fucking asian family stepping off the plane and simply stopping to check if right then if they have everything and act like everyone can phase through them will never make my blood not boil. HEY CHANG YOU FUCKING RAN TO GET OFF THE PLANE KEEP MOVING
>>2897511>You are in cattle class if you don't have a separate business class boarding chute.Not all gates or airports support itOr on premium heavy configurations there is still a smaller business section after turning right at the second doorOne time I was at AMS, there was an announcement before boarding deeply apologising to all business class passengers that only one jetbridge could be used, and you may choose to board last if you don't wish to see the cattle walk past.
>>2897506>old Asian guy proceeding to rewatch the nude/sex scenes in a movie on repeatThis is based, though.>>2897511Then move out of my fucking way, brownface.
>flight in TX/FL/PHX>latino families on this flight>PA system says spanish and english for instructions like seat # to check, boarding zone, etc>completely ignored by spanish families>walk up constantly trying to board whenever others walk up>turned away each time because they are in different zones or whatever>just sit wherever seat assignment doesn't apply to them>person in my seat, family taking up entire row>call over attendant to speak out the seat, speaks spanish to them on why they are in the wrong seat>they just play the dumbest fucking cards like "no understand" or "my family is all in this seat" (all in wrong seats)>finally move after 2-3 minutes of back and forth and begging to stay in the seats they randomly found>start the taxi they assume now is the time to stand up and do whatever they want and go find other family membersI will never understand
>>2897243whites breaking the rules is usually just people not understanding how to fly, when told to do something they apologize and try to follow it.
Japan is great but I do think the western autism obsession has made it grossly overrated, especially in the golden route locations it's tourist hell,This is subjective but I think the urban locations in Singapore look cooler aesthetically and the country is more English friendlyIf you're someone like me who into anime going to Japan for your first trip to Asia makes sense but try and be open minded to other locations in Asia if you travel often
>>2897051Stfu already
>>2897283But you can get around via MRT pretty easily and anywhere you'd want to go is within walking distance or at worst case a bus ride.>>2897224It's really not all glitzy and modern. It's got a lot of character to it IMO.>>2897347I agree. I've been there three times now and as much as I like it I'd probably only go there for a layover now because I've done everything worth doing.On the other hand I'd love to live there for a year or two.
>>2897051Geographically, Singapore is no comparison to Japan. It's one of the most lame countries on earth in terms of geographical appeal.
>>2897517You only say that because you're poor and hate seeing rich asians. You wish you could afford to shop in our department stores.
>>2897523As a real traveler I struggle to find anything would want for free in a department store.
>decide to take the plunge and live in asia, get told to just buy stuff there>go looking for items, can't find it in stores or find expensive knockoffs>go online to look and ask>"huh? why do you need that?">"anon just order it online at <place>">to order online need resident or alien registration card>find mirror to forward>login through all the hoops>sorry we don't deliver to hotels/ :)I never realized how coinvent amazon shipping was back in the USA, I must be doing something wrong in my travels how do you get shit shipped properly to you when abroad. In Korea and it's fucking impossible to do most things without some local phone number, citizen card or whatever, and local bank acc. Is there some must have service living in asia for goods online?
>>2897516Anon, I can't find the sizes needed. I am glad everyone here fits the 5'2"-5'6" 160lbs size 9 shoes so shopping in asia is a no brainer. If you're over 6 and are active(average 25k steps a day 5hr a day out seeing the sites and city), you burn through things my dr scholes inserts more or less vaporized, finding replacements that are worth a damn? not the easiest.Of course I am going to default looking at amazon when abroad since they are huge and what I have an account with.
>>2897577Im an analog nomad and when spending a year in Asia i had to fly to Kuala Lumpur to buy shoes that fit. Lots of western expats there. Check out the big malls by the Petronas towers
>>2897516>>being so stinky you need to apply industrial grade destinking goop to your skin every day, multiple times a day>At this point you should just pajeetmaxx and smell up the room without a careI get this is 4chan but anytime I hear this and recall the soaps and cologne you get in Asia I'm always wondering if this is just lack of social awareness or something. It reminds me of the fat people who tell me after I decide to go to post workout meal "how to eat healthy" and "yeah I gym a lot" who are 300lbs with +30% BF and what "snake oil vitamins are".It's better to have some quality deodorant or something than not enough, I don't walk around as a walshart american but you can't tell me you don't start smelling after being out and about in Asia with the heat and humidity and random smells that will start sticking to you. No I am not going to wear axe or random Kimmy's smell so good bodywash that has menthol in it.I've never been worried about smelling good, but I have been worried about smelling bad. I'd rather smell like some bodywash than whatever mystery smells have clung to me that day along with my own sweat. If this was winter, sure I could see criticism for being as anal if this was winter, but summer? come on.
>>2897638Cool great, I'm no where near the equator, doesn't really help me anon.
>>2897295>You can't really travel the world fulltime remotely unless you have your own business due to tax reasons."because tax reasons" Funny because I met someone who explained this meme to me, makes more sense when you think about it. Now that I am in a semi management position it also makes a lot of sense. #1 reason for this is the boss you have simply doesn't trust you to report on time, focus on work, worried you just do something dumb and they have to explain "well actually anon was in bangkok with our company laptop and data...". For me I work 90% of stuff in the cloud remoting for work, if my laptpo went poof I just download VPN, reload my configs to connect, login to my Azure VM and roll on.Tax reasons is a grey area most people are going to throw their hands up to and just say it's not possible. Now if you are trying to fille one of those weird tax loopholes where you get tax exemptions, that could be valid but I just turbotax my W2 and next through it pay whatever the USG says I owe
I am a German of Lebanese heritage on holiday in Brazil. I am visiting my Uncle who lives there. Been here two weeks and love the place. Told my uncle wish I could stay here. He laughs and goes just get a girl pregnant they let you stay. I think he is joking and laugh. Later on in the week I go boy I really do love it here, i wonder if a wagey like me could genuinely move here, he looks at me and goes, i told you just get a girl pregnant you can stay. I look visibly confused. He laughs and goes how do you think I came here you idiot, I was unemployed on welfare in Germany and I came here on holiday with your other uncle and I fucked the maid in our villa and got her pregnant and shes now your auntie. I google it and holy shit, you can literally just nut inside a brazilian girl, stay until she gives birth and they open citizenship pathway to you lol. How the fuck is this real, why are wage cucks and NEEToids not doing this? I am in Foz do Iguaçu, it will cost me around 200-250 euro a month for rent, another 200 for food a month. I can literally become a brazillian citizen by fucking a big ass brazillian girl. I am doing it im going to proposition as many local girls as possible. YESSSSSSS this is sick.
>>2897097>Then once i have it and my baby has it, i will apply to move to Germany and bring my dependants. It will be acceptedIsn't the whole point of the post about staying in Brazil?
>>2897097> ok so how I plan to do it. I faked a chronic back issue that got me disability awhile agoTypical shitskin leach mentality
