I feel very attacked

  • It depends on how you feel. For instance, I have a few friends that are born in Norway, but their parents are Vietnamese. Those friends would always described themselves as Vietnamese while in Norway; they are a part of that community, their ancestry is important to them etc. While traveling abroad however, they would say they are Norwegian. The context is different, and citizenship is more relevant. Some of them have lived several places, but their roots and citizenship were the most important pieces of nationalidentity to them.

    Myself I'm an immigrant. I don't tell people I don't really know what county I came from; it's private and not relevant. If people ask me (not abroad), they usually mean my accent is off, which is rude.

  • It's so funny, because in my case airdrying is one of the worst solutions. My hair gets very frizzy and flat while still curly. What I have to do instead is to immediately lie down with wet hair and kinda squish it against the pillow. When I wake up in the morning it's voluminous and mostly not frizzy.

  • On a more serious note, it makes sense; pigeons don't build nests, they just make sure the egg doesn't roll away. It's good enough. Junior bird worked very hard, but it wasn't necessary. A few sticks did the trick and required no time. Now you can focus on other tasks, that's efficiency.

    Privacy-oriented alternative to Skype credit

    I am looking for a reliable and preferably privacy oriented alternative to Skype credit - a service that allows me to call landlines and mobile phones via an app or website. I've heard of Yadaphone and Yolla, but I don't know much about them. Do you guys have any experience with these? Do you have other recommendations?

  • What a great read! You seem very reflective and aware of yourself. I don't really have any advice, but it seems you're on the right track just by knowing yourself and taking steps to wrap your head around it all. Good luck!

    Temporary phone number for Google account?

    I need a Google account to sign up for a service I'm interested in, so I want to create a bogus account for that. Problem is I need a phone number to verify it. I obviously don't want to use my actual number, so I tried some of those online temporary number services, but none of them worked. I get different error messages when trying to use them: "Number has been used too many times", "Number can't be used for verification", stuff like that. Do you guys know of a way to get a working number?
