The US army is just as corrupt as any organization. https://www.thedailybeast.com/inside-fort-hoods-prostitution-ring Women were being turned into prostitutes for the officers and when one of them complained some random black guy got labeled a pimp and took the fall for it. And that was like more than 10 years ago.

The invasion caught them completely off guard, and it feels likes Ames and Dolan have been trying to hedge their bets since. I hope they go back to normal soon.

I am watching Neon Genesis Evangelion and wonder if John enjoyed the scene where the gruff navy captain is mad that Nerv get all the government grant money instead of the navy.

Why is it impossible for John and his wife to get permanent residency anywhere?

I think they are a mixture of extremely bad at paperwork and extremely naive with the bureaucracies that handle it, which is a death combo for immigration paperwork. Perfect at paperwork and it's fine, everything goes as planned. Good at dealing with bureaucracies and when they reject you you can get a decent answer on what to fix. They seem to do the paperwork poorly then when they are told no they just say "oh ok, next country".

And that this point they have a global history of bad paperwork that follows them around. They could move back to the US and Katherine could easily get a conditional green card shortly afterwards, but I don't blame them for not wanting to live here.

you'd think that with all the friends they have all over the shop, someone would be able to help them out. but alas, they are doomed to roam the lands searching for off-season holiday resorts at reasonable rates!

I can see John being way too truthful on his visa applications and interviews. Protip: hire an immigration lawyer

I think there have been people helping them, but ultimately with immigration paperwork you have to be the mover on it and they just don't really try to push anything through. The Irish citizenship debacle always stood out to me since I'm somewhat familiar with that system. Their lawyer was getting frustrated with them for not actually acting, and then finally their reason for not pursuing it was that their application was initially denied because there was no Irish Civil Birth Certificate provided - They just need to be able to show a Church record, baptism record, etc, or basically any documentation of the person living in Ireland as a child, but instead they just moved on and dropped it.

yeah not disagreeing with thread consensus and I think they'll settle eventually, but: there is something weird that happens to us when we get old where it's easier to do what we've been doing our whole lives, even if what we've been doing is loving up and objectively much more difficult than what most people do. edit: he wasn't always "loving up", of course, he was moving job to job. I just mean even when you want to change course later in life sometimes it takes a few gently caress ups to stick. A normal person would be desperate to make sure the paperwork worked out so they didn't have to uproot their entire life, he's kind of just going through the motions because moving is what he's used to. pangstrom has issued a correction as of 17:12 on Jan 31, 2023 |

yeah i think the big issue is that either john or catherine or both of them don't want to live in the us. they've been married long enough that there shouldn't be any "married for papers" obstacles or suspicion in the way of getting her a green card. can't really blame them i suppose, too bad about italy.
