Since this wasn’t apparent the last time I asked… no, I’m actually not a US citizen or green card holder (permanent resident). Just happened to be in this country for a long time due to career reasons.
Get an FBI background check, and get it apostilled. Easy to do from your local post office in the US, difficult and expensive to do outside the us, and you will need it for many things you might want to do in other countries
Why would you need an FBI background check outside of the US?
you need it if you apply for citizenship in some countries. they’ll ask for full criminal records of all the countries you’ve lived in.
Actually the only time I’ve ever needed one is outside of the country. You need a police report from anywhere you lived for more than six months to apply for residencies, get teaching jobs, etc etc. the only authority in the US that can do this and provide a report acceptable outside the country is the FBI.
This is a pretty important step!
Get a few public library cards. Then abroad you can use it to borrow ebooks and audiobooks for free.
Those libraries won’t be around much longer, unless heavily curated and basically useless.
Mine are 95 percent county funded in a blue zone. State is already trying to lay down the law only to discover they don’t give much in the way of funds. No bucks no leverage. Only law they passed got overturned.
I have to renew mine in person every 3 years or so.

Libraries are not a US only thing.
Libraries with access to the enormous amount of English language content are usually only found in English speaking countries, though.
Good luck finding more than a few books on niche topics in, say, Dutch (ask me how I know).
I deeply regret not hanging onto my US library card.
Understandable, just another reason to learn the country’s language then.
He just said there weren’t any in Dutch on his niche topic. Your suggestion to learn more Dutch doesn’t make sense.
She, but thank you, this was my point exactly.
Yeah, I completely misread the comment, I’ll just take the L sorry.
I speak the language fluently; that’s not the problem.
It’s the fact that there are a much smaller number of books available on most topics because the country is so small.
My bad, I misread your comment, sorry.
Yosemite
Grand Canyon
Yellowstone
Avenue of the Giants
Add to this list any national parks you were thinking about visiting. After this administration, they may not be around anymore.
I’m just imagining them filling up Grand Canyon just because.

Close the door firmly after you leave.
So others can’t get out? So others still can’t come in? So we don’t let out all the AC?

If you have the money to leave. Buy a couple people on the street loaves of bread or a sleeping bag or something.
Take me with?
Pee on Kissinger’s grave?
So many graves to piss on, who has that kind of time.
Or bladder volume…
Drink water until your piss is crystal clear and you’ll be doing 10 or more graves per day.
(Not so) fun fact, but you can actually Die from drinking too much, because you may dillute your blood up to a point where your blood cells are bursting, because the osmotic pressure outside of the cells is to low to hold against the inner pressure of the cell.
Borrow a lot of money and then declare bankruptcy. If you’re feeling generous, buy up people’s medical debt for pennies on the dollar.
Take sometime to learn about what you will do with your 401k if have one.
