  • Write down questions about specific things that interest you. Look for online communities about Vietnam, immigration, expats, etc. Once you learn the basics of the language, you can look for a language exchange partner or pen pal to get practice and also learn about their country and culture.

  • What in particular do you want to learn about? As I said before, a good first step would be identifying where you want to go, because the rest of the steps, opportunities, and challenges will depend heavily on that.

  • First, try to figure out exactly where you want to move and what options you have for long term residence. Employers will usually sponsor you for work visas if you either have skills that are in high demand, or for seasonal jobs (resorts, hotels, agriculture). Pursuing higher education or doing volunteer work can also get you a visa in some cases.

    I definitely recommend learning the local language. Not only will it improve your chances of finding work, but it’s the respectful thing to do if you plan to stay somewhere for an extended period of time. You need to think about where you will live and how you will afford to cover your expenses. Some of the seasonal jobs might offer a living space, but I wouldn’t count on it. You could also try finding remote work and living as an expat before committing to moving.

    As for food, keep an open mind and learn to cook. It will help if you don’t like the local food, save you money, and is simply a good skill to know in any case.

    Lastly, people usually migrate to places where they have something and someone familiar. I would advise learning about the culture and getting to know people who live in the place you want to move to first so that you aren’t in for a shock.

  • While I wish generative AI never existed in the first place, I accept that it’s an inevitable part of the internet now. So at the very least, I wish all AI generated content was labeled as such so that people can decide for themselves if they want to see it or not. I don’t blame the average user for being curious, but what I hate is when they try to pass off AI generated content as their own creation.

    Edit: My statement was a general one, but it applies to NSFW content too.

  • Fun fact: while almost all calico cats (tricolor coat) are female, around 1 in 3,000 are males with an extra X chromosome, a condition known as Klinefelter syndrome. As a result, they are almost always sterile. About 1 in 10,000 male calicos are fertile.

    Also, around 80% of orange cats are male.

  • My friends and I used to watch some of these kinds of films as teens, I guess out of morbid curiosity. As you said, most of them are made to be as shocking as possible without any real substance. Just gore. You might like Audition or Martyrs.
