I’d never really considered how voting works when you’re living in another country but still have citizenship. Do you only get to vote in national elections?
This may change with the country but generally speaking, it’s a little more complicated than voting from home. You have to go to your nearest embassy to fill papers and anounce that you will be voting in country X a few months prior to the ellection.
Embassies usually get just a few ballot boxes when not only one, so you can expect a few thousands or so voting in the same box, which makes horrendous queues.
Some “more civilized” Countries also offer more efficient ways to vote when you are abroad, like voting through mail. Which is nice.
Calling the AP US government shills or the government shills shills?
I’ll say it. The US government should keep its piehole shut and let the international media, like the AP, handle this one, the evidence is damning by all accounts and their contributions to any discourse on South American elections are a negative.
Nah homie, there is just no other country in the world that can project power at the distance and scale that the US can. Not our fault y’all are weak AF.
Exactly what we are currently doing. Provide an incentive for free and fair elections. If the election is proven to be stolen then I’d assemble a coalition of local forces to oppose Maduro. Hopefully backed up by other regional players.
Otherwise you’ll see more aggression from dictators like him. Venezuela getting aggressive with more than one regional neighbor like Guyana could be the outcome if Maduro isn’t checked.
I haven’t been able to find it in years, but SB got an email from some chick who wanted to bone him (or whatever PG-13 lingo they used), and accidently deleted it. He panics, then gets another email that’s all broken English, but claiming to be the same person. At first excited, he then says:
“You are not [name]! You are not even literate!” And let me tell you, my 10 year old ass laughed until I dang near pissed myself
Then he’d dream about who’s hotter. Ali or Ali’s sister. And you could click on the pictures and they would cycle through women from Leisure Suit Larry.

Word of advice–be a good person to your colleagues, and let friendship possibly develop after one of you leaves. I’ve made many friends throughout the years once we each know there is no pressure to be friends. I’ve had many job leads throughout the years because people I previously worked with thought I was a great colleague.
