Il Governo evita la corsa agli sportelli: le carte d’identità cartacee non scadute restano valide anche oltre il 3 agosto 2026 e fino alla data indicata sul documento, ma con alcuni limiti. Ecco cosa cambia, quando serve la CIE e cosa devono fare i cittadini.
La logica da lotteria ha pervaso gli uffici consolari. Vengo a sapere che, a partire da Agosto 2026, le carte di identità cartacee non verranno più accettate. Ci vuole la CIE.
Bene. Creo un account su #Prenot@mi, per poter prendere appuntamento al consolato, e ottengo solo una finestrella di errore.
Invio una mail e mi rispondono che bisogna connettersi dalla domenica al giovedì, dalle 20 in poi, ma meglio alle 19:55, perché i posti finiscono subito 🤬
Certain terms really annoy me.
If you go to live and work in another country, you are NOT an #expat, regardless of how long you're gone. You are an #immigrant. Screw your white, English privilege. You go through #immigration, not expatification...
I will never refer to you under the privileged term YOU CHOSE. You also chose to leave. Own up to it and grow up. Many people didn't have a choice. They NEEDED to leave, usually for safety reasons. Stop trying to seem special. You're not.
🌍 Living in Finland as a developer from Pakistan:
Things I didn't expect:
→ Work-life balance is REAL here
→ Silence in meetings = thinking, not disagreement
→ EU companies value senior devs who can communicate
→ Remote-first culture is chef's kiss
If you're considering a move to the Nordic region — do it. The quality of life is unmatched.
