Nation states are real if you believe in them!
Be a pretty good gig to be the customs agent there
21st century version of the Victorian garden hermit.
Had to google what that was, lmao what the fuck?
I wish I had an island house
Yeah, that looks cozy as hell
Oh well,
I’d be lucky to own a home at allI’d be homeless if weren’t for my family
At least you know stuff about computers. I’m getting forced to learn that shit against my will becuz capitalism
I’m sorry ;w; that really sucks
I can’t even find a job in computers cuz I’m not degreed
I just go from treat servant job to treat servant job
What do you want to do?
But honestly any work that is ocean related would be nice, I live in a landlocked country and I really miss the ocean.
That would be cool…
I’ve never even seen an ocean tbh
Me? I don’t give a fuck anymore. Strange that you don’t get a job though I figured programming BS wouldn’t require a degree.
It has been a while since I applied anywhere… but they all want degrees and professional experience last time I looked :(
Idk maybe I should start applying again sometime. It’s not like I have a resume to show them beyond retail/supply chain work though lol. I don’t even have contributions to open-source projects to show tbh. I never finish any of my projects.
It’s pretty much the worst kind of house to have, enjoyable only by the ultra wealthy who visit every once in a while and leave it otherwise uninhabited. Having to take a fucking boat to get groceries or do anything sucks ass, saltwater-air is bad for basically everything humans make, etc etc.
Oh yeah the upkeep is probably insane, but idk there is just this weirdo inside me who wanted to live in a lighthouse.
Being a lighthouse keeper definitely has a certain appeal, but yeah I definitely wouldn’t want it to be my lighthouse that I’m expected to pay to have maintained lol
Of course not ;) but honestly that’s what’s shitty about owning any property.
dude that’d be fucked like what kidn of business plan would you even need, like what you’re gonna row out into a storm to demand payment from every ship nearby
Subscribe to my lighthouse or I’ll track your route and turn off the light whenever you’re nearby
Word. You’re either rich, or wearing squirrel skin britches you tanned yourself, and there’s no in between.
saltwater-air
freshwater island
Having to take a fucking boat to get groceries
what if you couold grow your own food tho
do anything
?? this is hexbear none of us ever do anything
I highly doubt it’s even the world’s shortest international bridge. Many nations’ borders follow a tiny brook or stream, which will likely be bridged at some point.
yup, went to r/borderporn (not a redditor just remember that one!) and searched “bridge”, found tons of examples, especially in the schengen zone
“El puente de El Marco” bridge connecting Spain and Portugal:
tiny footbridge connecting Latvia and Estonia in Valga/Valka:
I’m late to respond, but heck yeah, thanks for this reply. Exactly what I imagined.

^T… and can anyone explain why he hangs a D*tch flag between the Canadian and US flags?
they’ll probably smugly point out that it’s tongue-in-cheek and both island are on the canadian side of the imaginary line that runs through the st. lawrence river but it’d be kinda funny if some border patrol agents decided to wait on the “american” island to tackle and arrest the homeowner for illegal entry or something
Nationalism is a tool like any other and while there is some absurdity to it like borders broadly being an imaginary concept, we should not be cynical about borders existing because sometimes it does benefit the leftist cause primarily when it comes to indigenous sovereignty and land ownership among other things. Of course when it does not benefit us like the existence of every colonial country we should bring in the fucking clowns and make a joke of the concept. With borders we should act like it’s an old cartoon and whenever the border guard is not looking we quickly move the line further into their territory. Once the revolution is achieved we will look back at borders not with laughter or hatred, but with complete fucking indifference because it doesn’t matter.
What if he grew weed in his backyard and brought it into the house to smoke?
is the center of the bridge the territory of Hungary or Yemen? must’ve been some wacky surveying mishap to lead to that.
Would make for a fun joke to celebrate Juneteenth with Canadians but insist it only be celebrated in the Amerikkkan backyard.
why’s there a sideways italian flag in the middle
It’s in honour of the first Italian man to crawl across the bridge.
now a time-honored tradition hundreds of Italian men complete every year
Neoliberals, famous border respecters
