    I feel physically sick right now. I don’t have the money to leave. I’m an openly gay man. We’re headed for a christofascist dictatorship. I just wanted to stay alive long enough to bury my mother, that’s all, and I probably won’t get to, not in the new American Reich. I know Harris winning wouldn’t fix every problem this country has but please fuck not like this

      Take it easy friend. I understand your sentiments, we’re all in this together, humans can and will endure. All your friends who cared for you before are still there, and we’ll fight together to protect each other.

        I don’t have any really good friends and judging by the conversation I just had with my family they aren’t taking this seriously enough to want to help me leave.

        they’re going to sit by and wait for it to be too late for me to get out.

          If it’s any consolation, Trump is an incredibly ineffective and shitty leader. He might not be able to do what he wants out of sheer incompetence.

            Oh no, that was the first term.

            Him and his cronies have a plan now, and that plan is Project 2025. We’re fucked. We’re very fucked.

            … in fact, I think in january I’ll be signing off, I think it’s best I disengage from the internet/socializing and just hide under a rock for the next 4 years, or until it’s safe. Or until I get disappeared, whatever’s first.
