Tbh sometimes that doesn't even need to be a talent, it could just be someone who can be there to accept people and just Be Around as a friend, since that allows someone to experiment and test their perception around others.

You don't need to have therapist-levels of social perception skills to be that, sometimes you can just be Thomas, the person who you can still be friends with, despite everything.

US will require EU citizens to give all biometric data including DNA in new ESTA requirements

It's an attempt on intimidation, because supposedly for the person travelling it's a lose-lose:

  • provide all your data, and allow the US government (and any connected entities (big tech)) to use it to track and sell that data
  • don't provide all your data, and when the US government suspects that you did that, they can bar entry for little reason, and/or have legal grounds(/excuse) for go after you

All around it's a humiliation and intimidation exercise
