    Our crew is currently heading to a consulate for more German Visa steps. In just our family, two STEM phds, multiple kids going into engineering, and other college grads are moving out of the US.

    I’ve lost funding for my research here. Yet again due to Republican anger at education. Every time they take control of power they fuck over my career. So, I’m done. I’ll go do software engineering research in a country that wants me.

    When you look at the list of groups attacked and burned by the Nazis in the past, we check multiple boxes. I’m not subjecting my children to that.

    We’re insanely privileged to be able to make this move and I know most others left behind don’t have this luxury.
