Nationalities aren’t Skyrim races. You don’t get special abilities.

“It wasn’t until I learned that I was 90% British that it all made sense… my inhuman ability to queue for hours, my fastidiousness surrounding permits, and hatred for the French… I knew I was special, but I never imagined how special.”

Correct, but looking for a more specific answer. What about these are all connected beyond simply Amtrak.

Floridian, Cardinal, Borealis, Hiawatha, The City of New Orleans.

[Edit: Spelling mistake]

They were for a while in the 1970’s through the 90’s (I think), but it was in partnership with the American Motors Company. When AMC went bust, Chrysler bought them out and ended the contract.

What really shocked me the whole time I worked there were the number of parents that gave their kids just way too much autonomy… like eight and ten year olds roaming around without a guardian anywhere in sight. It’s not a cruise, the parks are not safe places to do that… there’s Code Adam training for staff and a ton of security, but theme parks attract PDF files by the bus load.

Lol. Fixed it.

Haha, missed it. Fixed. Lol.

I have four passwords I memorize: my password manager, my main email, my work login, and a throw away password for stuff that doesn’t matter too much (signing up for giveaways, throw away social media accounts, etc). For everything else I have the password manager create some twenty character monstrosity.

The four memorized ones are all nine letter words with numbers and symbols replacing letters usually always including a comma somewhere as I heard once that a comma makes a password hardet to crack (but, now thinking about it, I don’t know where I heard that and it sounds like a myth).

It’s all of North America really… folks in the US and Mexico get railed as well.

American here, we’re on an AT&T family plan at $50 USD/month for each line. Yeah, it’s expensive, but you get a lot for that price; unlimited talk, unlimited texts, and unlimited data (with no throttling); there’s no roaming anywhere in Mexico, Canada, or the United States and no charges for calling international between those three countries (and I think that might also include the Bahamas, but I could be mistaken). We also get a 60 GB hotspot per line per month, but that part might be inside the US only, I’ve never used it during trips to Mexico or Canada.

Even the characters at Disneyland have specific meet and greet areas where you’re supposed to take photos.

For a while I worked at a theme park in central Florida. Yeah, it’s that one. Some of the guests went wild.

One time I was walking through a guest area on my way to the break room when a dude pushing a stroller ran into me without looking. Apologies on both sides and then the dude tried to hand me something. I put my hands behind my back as a kind of “no thanks,” we’re not really supposed to take things from guests. I looked down and it was a used diaper. He thought he could just hand a park employee his child’s shit filled Pampers and that we’d take care of it. There was a trash can literally right behind him, but thinking on it later where did he change the diaper? There’s trash cans in the bathrooms and they all have changing stations… did he just change the kid outside? Is that a thing parents do?

Another time I was helping the transportation department during a park closure. Up on the monorail platform I was shoulder to shoulder with like a thousand people. A train arrives, the doors and gates open, and people start boarding. A woman who’d been standing near me stopped at the doors, turned to face me, poked her finger into my chest and shouted “YOU RUINED OUR VACATION!” She stared daggers into my soul as she walked backwards like a Bond villain into the car and continued staring me down as the doors closed and the train left the station. I have no clue who this was or what I had done.

Finally, I had to break up a fight where grown ass adults were yelling at each other and had started spitting on each other’s children (like WTF). No idea who started it or even if the two groups knew each other, but shit was looking to come to blows and the security people weren’t quite there yet. Another park employee and I stepped up between them with a “come on folks” and “this is a place for families.” Both of us were big guys so we made a wall between them, I’m 6’2 and was about 280lbs at the time (128cm [typo edit: 182 lol] and almost 130 kgs [edit for my fellow Americans: that’s about one refrigerator in height and around weight of a Shetland pony]). Saw the parents faces drop from anger to embarrassment immediately realizing how dumb they were being when security jogged up and a manager on a Segway rolled in.

The most magical place in central Florida really brings out the strange in some folks.

Renault is a good brand, but unfortunately for me and my fellows they’re not in the US market. There was talk of them coming back into the market (or was it Peugeot, maybe both?) a few years back but apparently that fell through. I know both Renault and Peugeot have a presence in Mexico but (even before Trump’s threatened tariffs go through) importing cars (especially new cars) from outside the US as anyone other than a licensed dealer can be really cost prohibitive.

Vivaldi works so good on my phone it’s insane. Outlook, Teams, Workday, and so many other work apps I no longer need to have because Vivaldi just runs them so smooth.

Vivaldi has been very good on my desktop as well as on Android. It’s a chrome fork made by some people who left the Opera dev team.

It could be a romantic however not necessarily a sexual attraction (aesthetic attractions also exist). I’m asexual, but still have romantic and aesthetic attractions to people.

Could you imagine trying to get there to be libraries today if the concept was new? “We can’t possibly just let people read for free! What, do you think literacy is a right? It’s a privilege!”

I’ve definitely been fucked by a few landlords, but it’s not a service I’d recommend to anyone else.

Not talking down, not trying to demean you, but that’s a doom spiral. If you can, go to a therapist. There’s tons of resources if you cannot afford it or don’t have insurance. Check with your local health service. Chances are good there’s low or no-cost options. Life is worth living, you are worth being here, humanity is worth saving.

So… zero consideration for the crew. Not a chance they did some malicious actions under duress of say, I don’t know, a government’s intelligence service? No shot anyone from the FSB or MSS could have been holding someone’s family if certain actions weren’t taken or failed.

No, we should just immediately kill the people we suspect of doing wrong.
