I mean, I left but I still have to file taxes, can't use any retirement plans in my current country (yay, PFICs), and otherwise get fucked by the government for daring to want to invest in my retirement. This is mostly why I still also vote.

would you change yourself from your genetic baseline
Yeah, I'd get rid of Celiac's for one. There are other potential inherited conditions that I'd enjoy not having as well (colorblindness, etc.).
I think I'd keep aphantasia since the opposite (and the inner monologue that is actually heard) seems like it would be hell.
The neurodivergence I'm not sure. I would probably want to keep it even though it does sometimes (often?) cause pain.
Physically, I'd repair a lot of damage done to my body (metal rods and plates hold together parts of me, among other things).
You should probably tie it back into the actual question that OP had since I'm not sure everyone would make the connection between bras and what you wrote. I assume the other downvoters just hate the idea of a boob reduction.
Generally, the worst intensity stuff is actually over in the first 48-72 hours depending upon various factors. That's not to say outside is completely safe after that (it wouldn't be), but the level of danger is very different.
Especially when the job market contracted with all the IT company layoffs, some people may be stuck in jobs they hate because opportunities are few and they'd rather not be homeless or have their kids not have food and so on.
There are. Certain groups don't even believe in anything supernatural and don't really take the bible literally at all.
Hah, same. I would hope that part would go without saying.
Correct. I just didnt want people to have the impression that there aren't problementic archaeologists.
I mean, tons of archaeologists have historically been idiots and loved white-male-splaining (among other 'splainings) things to indigenous cultures and discounting their works because no way could these black/indian/female/whatever people possibly be able to conceive of such a thing as this! Some of it could even have arguably spawned the ancient aliens bullshit because it must have been some kind of intelligent race and certainly not the ancient people of this land. Old antiquarians were often even worse.
I get the feeling I'm the only person who doesn't use fingerprint readers (due to this and just some bad experiences with them not working right in their earlier days on phones).
We sat around, even when I was young, watching the news every night with my family whilst eating. I can tell you I remember some things from the end of his presidency. Right after it, when the Berlin came down, I remember watching the news about it as we were actually at my grandparent's house for dinner that night. On the other hand, I don't remember the challenger explosion even though I was in gradeschool at the time. Maybe I've just forgotten about it as an adult now in my 40s.
We also had mock elections in gradeschool with the actual presidential candidates. I did misunderstand it and my parents refused to believe, as I did, that I had actually voted and found it hilarious.
Another shocker for others, maybe, is that many companies require you to use those same pool of days as your sick leave. Get sick and no vacation for you. Japan does this as well (though Japan actually has ma-/pa-ternity leave which is more than I can say for the US)
