Like what with all the fascism going on, Trump teasing a third term, and even now passing a law to be able to deport U.S. Citizens. I can’t imagine people taking these threats lightly. So basically, how are you holding up?

I’m trans, lesbian, and Hispanic. Next week I’m permanently leaving the US with my partner.
This week has had a lot of crying. I cried at my work goodbye party on Tuesday. Yesterday I hosted a going away show for my community at an amazing bar (I’m a performer). Have you ever seen 50 people crying simultaneously at a bar? Today I cried when I said my last goodbyes to my coworkers, since they are actually great people.
So overall very heavy with mixed feelings. I’m thrilled that I have a ticket out of this mess, I’m terrified for my friends and family who are staying behind, I’m beyond furious that this is all happening, I’m mourning the life I’m leaving behind, and I’m exhausted from everything
This was a heavy read. I really felt that in my heart.
I’m a cis straight man, and I welcome you to Europe if that is where you are going. Please enjoy your stay. Hopefully it won’t have to be permanent and you can reunite with your family and friends one day. ❤️
Best wishes to you wherever you are headed. I imagine soon the sane countries will offer queer people asylum.
I’m wishing you safe travel, good luck, and all the love in the world
