@Kierkegaanks@beige.party It sounds a bit like the mutual assistance treaties signed by the Soviet Union with the Baltic States in 1939. A year later they were occupied by the Soviet Union and annexed.

@miffyhelen Does it have wheels so you can have the fridge come to wherever you are.
(I am at the beach and I want some leftovers.) "Fridge! Bring my leftovers to my spot on the eastern side of the beach near the stairs."

@BathysphereHat@mastodon.online one academic sent me a free dictionary of the Tangut language from Japan because I enquired (and I can't remember why) if it would be possible to buy a copy.

@CarveHerName@mstdn.social I found out about her from my grandparents (one of whom came from a mixed Australian-NZ background), who also lived in Port Macquarie (from the late 1980s to the late 1990s).
