    100 Days of Javier Milei

    That's true. He is pretty astute about not biting the hands that feed him.

    Biden. He absolutely needs to insult Biden. That would be epic.

    Country Wide Strike..?

    To the people who posted here and on other forums fearmongering about "Oh, all the businesses and restaurants are going to be closed for the strike." Um....no. As of 4 p.m., every business and restaurant in my neighborhood of Monserrat is open, business as usual. In fact, the restaurants...

    Cleanliness of Palermo or Other Safe Neighborhoods

    Argentina still has a way to go before it's as expensive as the US. And the Dollar Blue is rising again.

    What is his position on immigration generally? Does he want more or less? Has he proposed any changes affecting expats?

    Renew Tourista Visa online

    Has Milei weighed in on this? I wonder if his libertarian leanings would be just to live and let live with us coming and going every 90 days (I hope so.) It does seem like he has bigger fish to fry for the foreseeable future.

    Argentines bought a fifth less at food and drink stores in December

    The Chinese grocery near my apartment has a lot less traffic than a couple months ago. I walked in there last Saturday evening and I was the only customer in the store. The only company I had was the cashier and the resident store cat.

    Mosquito Invasion

    Having spent most of my life in South Florida, mosquitoes are just a part of life for me. It's the rainfall amount that drives their population up and down, so yes, El Niño. I worry about dengue, but even in Florida we've had mosquito-borne encephalitis outbreaks and even recent reports of...

    Has the best way to get USD changed at all?

    I keep missing these jumps in the dollar blue by a day or two. It's true what they say, you can't time the market SMH.

    AmericaTeVe Miami claims Cuban Intelligence is behind anti-Milei protests

    Cuba today is a sclerotic technocracy whose elites are focused on maintaining their power and privilege. They're heavily invested in Venezuela thanks to Chavez and you have to wonder if privately they wouldn't prefer to be out of that quagmire. The idealism of "spreading communism" died with, if...

    Alberto Fernández celebrated the New Year in a luxurious hotel in Madrid

    I still find it interesting that no one has ever seen Alberto and John Sutcliffe from ESPN Deportes together in the same place.

    Thread: Milei's DNUs as they happen

    He's probably not a fan of River Plate, either. What's your point?

    New official exchange rate: 800 pesos per dollar

    <<Aerolineas doubled their ticket prices domestically today.>> Was it only domestically? When I saw the story I got so spooked I booked Latam for my upcoming SCL-EZE flight. Got a great deal, at least.

    I'm shocked how few businesses have live websites

    Fortunately, I'll be dead in 30 or fewer years. Immortality would be hell, just trying to keep up with all this nonsense. Don't even get me started on QR codes.

    New official exchange rate: 800 pesos per dollar

    Somebody please bottom line this for me. I've been living in Buenos Aires, but I'm in Chile right now until January. Should I bother to come back?
