Just a vent post but whatever.

I'm a queer guy In this shit hole country. my original plan was to finish my business bachelor program and apply to exchange programs during that time, make connections and then maybe find a white collar job that gave a workers visa.

But now I remembered the mandatory military service. So I have to extend my studies for 5 more years then I planned (I'm 18) or bite the bullet and be a slave for this corrupt Russias Fleshlight of a county for a year.

I'm miserable, living with my parents sucks, if I want to live by myself I either have to take out a loan (that Ill have to pay off for 10 years, minimum) or share rent with roommates in some apartment, I guess renting is the solution, since owning an apartment doesn't make sense if I want to live abroad, but having roommates sounds horrid considering how fucking immature and annoying most of my peers are.

I don't suppose there are underground queer communities, are there..?

Idk fuck me I guess

I've only met a few Georgian Touhou fans, so I'm wondering if there are any more. It hasn't been that popular for over a decade now, although it has been gaining some popularity its still not as popular.

ისეთი სამსახურია დაწინაურებები არ ხდება, უფრო სხვადასხვა პოზიციებზე მუშაობენ და ერთი პოზიციიდან ერთი თანამშრომელი გაუშვა და მითხრა ოქტომბერში უნდა ვეძებო მისი შემცვლელიო. ხოდა როგორ ვუთხრა რომ მე მომცეს ეგ პოზიცია. ასე პირდაპირ თქმა მიტყდება.

I don't know if it's a good idea, are there any doable hikes around completely solo without a car? Or should I rather book a day trip? I don't like groups so I am looking for what I can do alone, or perhaps I will find another girl who would want to join me! <3 Much thanks!

Gamarjoba! We have a short 1-day stopover in Tbilisi coming up, and I’m trying to figure out a couple of logistics.

We saw those massive swords on IG Reels and it looks super cool. Since we don't have a car, is it actually worth visiting on such a short trip? If so, what’s the best way to get there and back from Tbilisi? Are there good tour/private driver options that will drive us out, wait for us, and bring us back?

I also wanna get your advice on how to efficiently spend the night time. Our flight leaves super late/early morning, so we aren't booking a hotel just for a couple of hours. We plan to head to the airport around 3 AM. Any recommendations for cool 24/7 spots, cozy bars, or things to do late at night in Tbilisi to kill time until then?

Madloba in advance

წინადადების ბოლოში როდესაც იყენებენ "და"-ს, მაგ. "არ მინდა, შემეშვი და" - ეს რომელი კუთხიდანაა?

We adopted a dog just over 3 months ago. She is an absolute angel and we adore her. She was a rescue from the streets in Georgia. This isn’t a situation of her having any behavioural issues, she has adjusted to our routine and responds to her name, knows when I grab her leash we’re going for a walk, she loves to cuddle, but it has slowly dawned on me that she clearly does not know English and she’s not just ignoring me at times. Which makes a lot of sense considering she just came to Canada earlier this year and spent her whole life in Georgia.

She is an older dog, but she is so well behaved, so gentle, literally the perfect dog, so I know she’s had some kind of training at some point, we don’t know her full history but her and her sister were found with their mom on the streets as puppies and have spent their whole life in the shelter.

I was wondering if anyone can help me learn some basic commands in Georgian, specifically for dogs? I almost feel more bonded to her since English wasn’t my first language either and I’m a fob as well, so I want to learn her language so she can feel more at home and feel understood and also just to reinforce safety commands. I know I can look up basic words, but I know in my language we talk to animals differently than humans so any dog phrases/commands I can learn for her the easier her life can be. Also when I use Google Translate it never has the speaker option to hear the word pronounced.

I’d love to learn the phrase for “stop” and “come back”, and if I can learn how to say “my beautiful princess” and “I love you” that would be a bonus. She’s had such a rough life, I’m not interested in her performing any tricks, but I would love for her to understand those commands if god forbid she slips out of her collar or something like that.

Thank you to anyone in advance who takes the time to teach me a new word 🤞

idk the georgian gd comunity is really small so
