      I did notice your username, so I suspected this might not apply to you, but maybe it’ll be helpful to someone.

      All I can really offer you is ‘good luck, hang in there and this too shall pass’, which is probably not a lot of comfort.

      I wonder if there is any point at which China starts to look more appealing…? I know that’s easy to say as someone with no experience in China, but we are speedrunning the dystopian shit here.

      • Its funny how my mother has did some arranged marriage thing for my older brother and… basically I overheard some talks about visas and that he was going back to China for marriage or something (相親 is the term for it I think), and by marriage, I assume they’re gonna live in the US since all the family assets are here. Like they already exchanged WeChats… I have no idea how that’s gonna go, dude has no social skills, probably worse social skills than me lmfao.

            Depends on your overall score. If you’re currently in the black, you’re a little closer to being able to buy plane and rail tickets. If you make it to the red list, you might even get “reduced administrative burdens” which I think is a euphemism.
