Is your goal marriage or just dating?

If marriage, consider that anyone from B with whom you may otherwise find compatibility may not be comfortable in A.

If just dating, stay in B for a while. Date people and learn what you need/want in a partner. Treat it like practice for finding a partner—while respecting and being open and honest with the people you’re dating. Then move back to A when you’re ready to put down roots. Maybe you’ll be lucky and meet someone in B who is amazing and would like to live in A—has been there and is as comfortable as you there. Or, you move back to A and maybe broaden your preconceived notion of who is an acceptable partner.

Don’t rush anything, be prepared to adjust your expectations, respect the other person’s needs and goals.

It sounds like you’re from a culture/religion that is somewhat insular. Consider that there may be people outside your culture who will respect it and be compatible as long as you respect theirs.

Really wish that was a 1 instead of a 4.

Sales must have been so low that a refund was a lot cheaper than a class-action lawsuit.

I’m sure Thomas Kinkade is the easiest artist to replace with AI.

There’s a broader space exploration sale on Steam right now. This might just be for that.

That was back in the early 19th century.

I think you mean 20th century. There was no jazz in the 1800s.

There’s the adage, “spend your money where you spend your time.”

If you’re going to spend a lot of time in front of a TV, get a nice one. Cook a lot? Get the good knives and pans. Don’t read much? Don’t buy an e-reader or book subscription service. Not big into DIY? Get cheap drill/driver for the rare times you need it.

There’s plenty of exceptions but it’s a nice general rule.

In addition to the other points made, not nearly as many people use Lemmy so it’s not as much of a target for bots.

The alt-right/Trump content on sites like Reddit and Twitter is amplified out of proportion by bots.

There’s a reason they chose Johannesburg, the movie is an allegory for apartheid.

Tides don’t rely on the sun but are affected by the sun.

All bagels are baked. They are boiled before they are baked but they are definitely baked.
