I'm trans, if I ever set a toe in that shithole I'm gonna get shot

Thank gods Europe is still free (at least for now)

They're not shooting us YET but I'm sure it's coming. I'm trans and HERE and scared as fuck.

yeah... :((((

take care of yourselves, this is gonna get rough. I'm sticking it out where I am until I have no choice but to get out, and seeing what we can do here to help people relocate to relative safety. I have tentative hope that some states will effectively resist this, at least for now, but no matter where you are it's definitely time for a flight plan if you can make one.

we may have lost the battle for now, but there's time still to bolster our communities and survive this. at least I have to hope so.
