I don't have any "social media" accounts. I guess they won't believe me, and would deny me a visa based on the assumption that I am lying.

The US probably has the ability to call your bluff on that. NSA says hi

You say that like it's a bad thing.

(I have family and lots of close friends in the US. I miss them all. But I don't intend to visit given the way things are over there these days. _Maybe_ after the next administration change? Depending on how things change? But I've come to accept I may never visit again.)

I already missed a funeral on account of all this bs. But it just doesn't seem worth the hassle any more to go there. It is frustrating because I have more friends on that side of the Atlantic than I do in the EU. But the last interaction with US border patrol was enough to sour me for the rest of my life.

I only have bluesky with only work posts, nothing else. I've gotten a visa in last few months. Even though I never went because of the situation. Needed to get a visa for potential work related stuff which eventually could be worked around.

You do have an HN account. And it's public! Just don't get caught giving a shit about facts.
