I'm an American living in Germany and, yeah, if it can ever be repaired, it will take decades at least. Perhaps more than a century.

Here in Germany, the only American product that remains popular is Coca-Cola. Pretty much everything else is no longer purchased, and the US itself is boycotted for tourism. Jack Daniel's has been running an extensive advertising campaign, but Johnny Walker has seemingly captured their business.

Here's one that's come back into heavy rotation with me recently:

That was the original that I had back then as well. I lost it in a particularly nasty break-up in the late 90's and then repurchased an omnibus version around 2010 to reread it. :)

I picked this up at a CD store in Germany back in '91, and it introduced me to some bands that have remained with me ever since.

From an American living abroad, Canada is beautiful, and the people are really friendly if someone wanted something "America-Light".

Many countries are already developing strategies to exclude the US in their dealings, specifically.

Do you think that the rest of the world is ever going to be as welcoming to American involvement after what has already transpired in the last 11 months? We still have at least 3 more years of this... our relationship in the rest of the world will only be damaged further.

Is there any plan or action whatsoever to try to clean it up?

heh That would just make it a calendar, though. :)

Those of whom he does not target should stand up as well. Tell those on the sidelines to get to work.

Just remember, Advent started yesterday on November 30th. Go ahead and treat yourself to #2! :)

Switzerland is one of the most expensive places to live in the world. 1.5 million is not enough to "retire" there.

As an American living abroad, I would say that Trump has already damaged the reputation and sentiment towards the US and Americans for generations. It will surely be even worse in 3 years.

What are your thoughts on refurbishing existing empty housing rather than continuously building new? I have always thought that a mixture of the two makes the most sense.

V.A.S.T. opening for Orgy. Orgy played a half-hearted 40 minutes and left, whereas V.A.S.T. also played 40 minutes but utterly captivated the audience, elevating the experience to become the only memorable part of the show.
