Westerner who has been multiple times, and spent months on end there. It’s felt like Mecca for me personally due to my hobby and nature interests. I also greatly appreciate the cleanliness, hygiene, and adherence to societal and social expectations. I understand some consider those aspects stifling, however I do not.

This being said, I don’t have a desire to become a permanent resident at any point. I just want to vacation there indefinitely.

EDIT: Their public transportation systems are also pretty killer.

she wanted me to download and burn Landman season 1 to DVD and I refused and said Taylor Sheridan is a hack, who just sees someone doing a tough job and is like “thats so god damned american” and writes a new show about it

No

but when I said it I said it kind of sarcastically just in case it meant something bad

I didnt want to ask her what it meant because I felt like itd mean she won the fight, so I just acted like I understand and said thank you

Your persistence in trying to gaslight me into doubting my interpretation of something I saw is bordering on pathological, i.e. super weird bro.
