As a US citizen who was born in the UK, how risky is it to leave and reenter the US right now?

As a US citizen who was born in the UK, how risky is it to leave and reenter the US right now? - Lemmy.World

Until now this would have been a stupid question - this is my home. But we’re in a strange timeline. My background is I was born in the UK, met first husband, married, got green card, that went tits up, divorced, met husband 2, found forever love, married, naturalized in 2021. Have my passport and everything. It’s my dad’s birthday, and he lives in the UK. I want to go back and celebrate, but I’m nervous about reentry into the US. I naturalized during the Biden presidency, and I am a Democrat, I feel nervous that I have a target on my back. I have a home and pets here. Am I ridiculous for worrying or should I be cautious about leaving right now?

Do other people 'edge' going to sleep? Why is this a thing?

Do other people 'edge' going to sleep? Why is this a thing? - Lemmy.World

I’ve got a great life, I am not trying to avoid tomorrow or whatever, but I just really like staying awake when I’m absolutely balls ass tired. It’s kinda addicting, like the sleepier you are, the more insanely good the sleep will be. So I find myself struggling, on purpose, to stay awake. I force myself to read books, or watch shows, or go on Lemmy… and I only just realized it’s because I love feeling sleepy. So uhh, anyone else got this?

IDK if you remember Struggles, the lookalike cat that belonged to our neighbor and got left behind when he moved...

She’s a proper part of the family now! After two failed attempts, she’s landed at her forever home. She seems to know it too - she waits at the top of the stairs when it gets to bedtime and screams until we go up and tuck her in with us.

I am obsessed with entering competitions, and I’ve won quite a few by now (I got free tickets to the same music festival seven years in a row due to my dedication). I love hearing stories of what others win and how they use their winnings.

Ladies of Lemmy, do you also get the shits on the first day of your period? - Lemmy.World

It seems like a thing that happens to most people, and yet no one talks about it. I’d like to talk about it.
