I wonder if third and fourth generation immigrants living outside of the USA will say "Oh I'm an USAsian Australian!" or "I'm an American German!" and come back to some random bar in the middle of Ohio and claim that their great-great-grandmother was from "this town!" and see if they can get a drink for free.

En septembre 2022, au moment où Vladimir Poutine annonçait une mobilisation militaire en Russie, de nombreux jeunes hommes ont quitté le pays pour éviter d’être envoyés sur le front. Ils ont ainsi emboîté le pas à ceux qui, dans la foulée de l’invasion de l’Ukraine, avaient déjà fui. Deux vagues d’émigration qui ont divisé la société, observe un chroniqueur du média russe “Republic”.#émigration #europe #société #russie #ukraine #guerreenukraine

Anecdote from a friend in Lancaster PA:

Was at the post office today and have NEVER seen the line that long for passports — at least 15 if not 20 people deep! Joked with guy behind me about people wanting to be sure they can get out … and then I wondered how many of the darker skinned people standing in that line just wanted irrefutable proof of citizenship. I hate it here.

Tip for USian LibreOffice Writer users applying to positions overseas:

In your CV and cover letter, go to Tools > Language > For All Text > More... and under "Default Languages for Documents", you can set "Western" to "English (UK)", "English (Ireland)", or whatever.

Now it'll red-squiggle on color but not colour, etc.

And you can leave "For the current document only" checked if you don't want to make a full, global change just yet.

We're an inch away from book burnings!
The administration is using the FBI to go after researchers that successfully received grants on climate topics.
Are academics leaving the US already or is it like the protests that are supposedly happening but strangely don't show up at all on any media including here?

"Tell me, do you really think you go to hell for having loved?
Tell me, enough of thinking everything that you've done is good
I really need to know, after soaking the body of Jesus Christ in blood, I'm so tired of America"

@uvok

Da muss man selber recherchieren und abwägen. Irgendwohin ziehen und dort bleiben zu können ist ja auch ein Privileg – kannst Du das, bist Du "#Expat", wenn nicht, fällst Du unter "irreguläre #Migration".

Hilfreiche Indizes zur Welt:

Nicht zu vernachlässigen natürlich auch Amtssprachen, Sprachkenntnisse, Lernfähigkeit.

Zum Gesundheitswesen habe ich leider noch keinen international aussagefähigen Index gefunden, gerne Hinweise als Antwort.
