Tell me where you stand politically without telling me where you stand politically

@LeahRay44 @FactsAboutTexas My first East Texas rainstorm I stood out on the porch staring at it. My buddy who was local asked why I was watching it rain. I said: “That’s not ‘rain’. We have ‘rain’ in California. That’s some Wrath-of-God type shit!”

To all of our World Cup visitors, THIS is a Texas sized storm 🤠

@elsathora I’ve seen this one! It turns out the news is trying to stop me from leaving because I’m in a TV show!

I’ve traveled to every continent on earth, there is nowhere like the USA
The standard of living, the opportunities, the safety, the freedom
You don’t realise how lucky you are, so many of you take what you have for granted

I’m drunk I want to be American

It's gonna keep happening. They're gonna keep not doing anything about it. I'm just going to ignore the UK.

You are absolutely part of the fight. Voting is only one dimension. The best way for you to fight is to thrive. Be an example of what an immigrant or refugee is supposed to look/act like. Serve as that example. Become self-supporting contributors. The agencies can annoy you, they can’t really stop you.
English
I do believe the problem lies with the Left wing resettlement agencies. They really try their best to make life difficult for "Trump's refugees".
We are technically not part of the fight, we cannot vote for the next five years and we only want what is best for our new country. Every American should want the same......

@camdenmike @sourpatchlyds But firmly believed that revolver practice should be conducted outside the flat. What a pansy.

@sourpatchlyds Doctor Watson had a Webley revolver as I recall.

This is relatively new. Arthur Conan Doyle was writing about a doctor with an EDC as recently as the early 1900s.

@Arajandonnar @FightWithMemes Luty, FGC-9, two pieces of pipe and a sharpened bolt, whatever. American teenagers made zip guns out of car antennas in the 1950s. A tube, a spring, a round. Fuel+oxidizer=energetic material.
English
@Lefty_Kitty @FightWithMemes well philip luty kinda proved that though with some caveats

How the British would react to the r*pe gang inquiry if they still had any guns

I want to know how much ranch has been confiscated so far to need this PSA

If you’re visiting for a very large sporting event & you happen to discover RANCH while you’re here… pls pack it in your CHECKED BAG on the way home. Thank you.

It's funny how many people mention the big things, but I'm starting to think it's the everyday things we'll notice most.
Reliable electricity, orderly traffic, and not having to constantly think about contingency plans for everything.
Those little things add up to a lot of peace of mind.
English
We’ve done a lot of research on the big things, weather, schools, crime, natural disasters, red/blue states, but there are so many small everyday things we still don’t fully understand.
What’s one thing about daily American life that you think every newcomer should know?
Or… what’s something that surprised you about American culture, even if you grew up in the USA?
Things like:
- Grocery stores & food culture
- Friendships and community
- Church life and Sunday routines
- Healthcare, doctors, insurance
- Small talk, manners, or social norms
- Holidays, seasons, or family traditions
We’re still in South Africa waiting on our flight, but we want to arrive prepared and respectful of our new home.

Zayin - Faith & Freedom@Zayin_7_119
Do you believe in signs from God? Have you ever experienced one yourself? This is how our journey truly began… On 6 February 2025 my husband was cleaning his bakkie when he found a US dime inside. The coin clearly said “LIBERTY” and “IN GOD WE TRUST”. We had never seen it before and had no idea how it got there. The very next day, 7 February, President Trump signed Executive Order 14204. My husband saw it on X and immediately felt the dime was a clear sign from God. We prayed deeply about it because his brother, who had a stroke the year before and needed full-time care wouldn't be able to leave. Then on 8 February, his brother suddenly passed away in hospital while the whole family was praying around him. It was heartbreaking… but we knew in that moment God had answered our prayers and opened the door. His brother was now safe with the Lord, free from all pain and suffering. We sent our email of interest to PRM as soon as it was released, and in February 2026 we had our first contact. We are still here in South Africa, waiting on our refugee flight in the next 2–4 weeks, standing in complete awe at how God has guided every single step. Thank you for walking through this miracle with us.

@Zayin_7_119 @abwinkler999 The residents of Buffalo are maniacs on the subject. Bones or boneless, which wing place has the best, which are hottest, which dipping sauce, etc. They’re famous for it.
English
@Zayin_7_119 @EGANSgrammie Most Americans are pretty terrible at recognizing foreign accents, i.e.: Can’t tell Scottish from Irish or Aussie from Cockney, so don’t be surprised if you actually get asked where you’re from constantly.
English
🤣 Oh, there will be no hiding where I'm from.
My accent is VERY Afrikaans.
Our children, on the other hand, have spent years playing online games with American kids and chatting for hours, so they've picked up little bits of an American accent along the way.
It's the cutest thing when I hear it. ❤️🇺🇸
English
@abwinkler999 @Zayin_7_119 If you move to Buffalo, specifically, the first opinions you’ll get, whether you want them or not, will be about wings.
English
@Lefty_Kitty @Zayin_7_119 Plus, if you move to, say, Buffalo, New York, they may not have very strong opinions about tornadoes but you will want to listen to what they have to say on the subject of snow!
English
@meowsternator I think we can, if we’re describing a British person, i.e. “Piers Morgan is a wanker”.
English
Can I use “wanker” as an American or is that appropriation of British culture
English
Yes, it’s hard to describe how much so. Some universal things you’ll notice everywhere: Infrastructure is much better, consistently, especially power grid. Outages are rare, usually weather-related, and brief. Traffic is busy, sometimes congested, but generally very orderly. It’ll take you a little bit to catch on to who expects a tip and how much, things like that.
English
@Lefty_Kitty That's something I've been noticing more and more.
Americans keep talking about how completely different Texas, New York, California, the Midwest, and the South are from each other.
English
@elsathora Get out on the water and enjoy Copper Canyon. Make sure you sunscreen EVERYWHERE.

@EGANSgrammie @Zayin_7_119 Garage sales as well. The advantage to thrift stores is that they’re open whenever you want to go, you don’t have to wait for opportunity. The myriad things needful to run a “starter” residence: spoons, towels, basic furniture, etc. are all available there cheaply.
English
@Zayin_7_119 @Lefty_Kitty Another source of cheap items, especially kitchen items is Estate Sales. I can give you a website when you get here. There are estate sales everywhere in the US. Just need to know the city location.
English
This video came at exactly the right time… 😭🙏
The waiting has been really heavy today. It’s been over a week since our tentative travel email and we still haven’t heard anything about cultural orientation. We don’t know the exact date or even which city we’re going to.
Packing feels almost impossible right now, what do we keep and what do we get rid off when we have no idea when we’re leaving or what the weather will be like? Some moments we’re excited, other moments the uncertainty weighs heavy.
But this powerful reminder to take that first step of faith even when the path isn’t clear… it strengthened my heart again.
We will keep trusting God and walking forward when He opens the door.
God bless the USA. ❤️🇺🇸

This powerful video “The Walk” from UFC Freedom 250 hit hard tonight. A man must still stand ready — even when the path ahead isn’t fully clear. We’re still in South Africa waiting on God’s exact timing, but when the call comes we will walk forward with courage like the pioneers we are. Link to the video in the comments below 👇 God bless the USA. ❤️🇿🇦➡️🇺🇸
