Pretty wild! All states give you at least 30 days to dump your baby, no strings attached. Some states give you 60 days!

I feel like more people should know about this! It seems like a highly under utilized ability.

    The US is simply where the highest number of anglophones reside. You’d have to sum up the next three nations to get more English speakers than the US (according to worldatlas.com).

    Assuming an English speaker on the internet is American is still rude, but not exactly a bad guess - and hardly chauvinism imo

      Anglophone is an incorrect metric.

      There are more non native English speakers than native English speakers.

      On English speaking websites and communities there is no difference between those two as long as the website or community is not specifically for that purpose.

      Most people on Lemmy do not live in the US.

        Again, and I’ve tried to be very clear about this, I’m not saying they’re correct. We agree that it’s a mistake. I’m explaining how it is an easy mistake to make.

        This is a frustrating conversation.

          For a while, I was trying to start all my comments with things like 'to add… ’ or, ‘just to clarify…’ if I was agreeing but context pr more info or whatever

          etc since it seems like the default is to assume any response to a comment is conflict / disagreement.

          May be time to bring that back
