They're in China... (my family's country of origin)
I don't have a passport yet... submitted application still waiting for the US State Department... 👀
Also requires visa from PRC Embassy...
I thought it was too much hassle to have to deal with VPN and firewall issues and I didn't bother...
If I knew I'd feel this lonely, I might've tagged along
That reminds me, haven't been on a plane since we arrived in the US in 2010... 16 years away from my birth country... 👀
Also my brother seems to think I'm trying to harm him or something... mom asked me to help with finding the cheapest plane tickets, then there was some webpage loading issues, then he just said he would just do it on his computer instead...
And then I was curious and asked which seats he picked... I mean I'm always curious about stuff
He didn't respond...
Like c'mon... it's not like I'm gonna put poison on a plane seat lmfao... wtf bro?
So yeah...

👀

Guess I'm selling my soul to corporate lmfao
I really dont think you need Facebook for that. You can just look up some bigger clubs in your area just by searching the web or even using wikipedia if its up to date. I myself have joined a computer club in my area fairly recently and its feels great to have some like minded people that are just as "weird" as myself. I know that getting into that can be daunting but it really is worth it.
Or make some online friends! We need like a Lemmy equivalent of gaming discord servers
