Edit: I swallowed my pride and posted. Thanks for all the encouragement!

I am emigrating from the U.S. to the UK, where I have citizenship, because my daughter is queer and I don’t think she is safe under Trump. She won’t be totally safe in the UK either, I understand that, but it’s as safe as I can get her right now.

I want to get her out before inauguration day. My wife can leave later because she will need to both get our affairs back in the U.S. in order, but also find a job that will get her a work visa (this won't be that hard, she has a ton of managerial experience and two masters degrees).

My issue is that I really want to have a job lined up before I get there. We'll have some padding for a month or so, especially after I sell my car, and friends and relatives offering to help, but I would feel far more comfortable if I had a job lined up before I left.

So this brings me to Reddit and this subreddit in particular: https://www.reddit.com/r/UKJobs/

I haven't posted on Reddit since I quit not long after the blackout. I hate it so much that this is my current profile:

So do I swallow my pride and go back? I'm going to hate myself but I am so worried and I need to keep her safe. I'm kind of at a crossroads here.

Maybe the 'go back and do it' is the obvious answer, but I need either reassurance or warnings from my fellow Lemmings before I do it because I'm really frozen at this point. I feel so silly asking this of all of you, but I don't know who else to talk to about this because really, only people here in any large group will understand what I'm dealing with emotionally and psychologically.

Also, if you know anyone in the UK who needs a video editor, audio editor, sound designer, videographer, photographer and someone who has a lot of other entertainment experience with a prestigious list of clients, please don't hesitate to let me know your email address in a PM and I'll send you my CV.

Thanks.
