Been having nightmares and interrupted sleep from the last few weeks of news about trans legislation pushing through many states in the US. I'm scared for the future, and for my family's safety in this nation, I had a talk with my husband about possibly fleeing to Canada if legislation pushes through in Michigan to hurt and marginalize trans in state and we ended up in a bit of an argument on the time it would take to get passports for all of us just to flee the country. 1/2
At the moment, I'm feeling helpless, scared and uncertain of what happened to the safety and security I once felt in my own home nation. 2/2
@MississippiGoneCoastal I may convince my husband to consider that option, but I fear Mexico is just as bad.
@PaganMother No place is better than home. Hopefully whatever thing we are going thru is ending and better things are on the way.
@PaganMother Hear ‘ya. MI better off than other places w/ Dems in control there though.
@jaunty That's true, I worry for the folk across the nation though. There's so many out there suffering and scared too.
@PaganMother Me too. Do you get Erin’s newsletter? https://erininthemorn.substack.com/
@jaunty No, but I'm signing up to receive them now.
@PaganMother 💔 I wish I could offer more than my good wishes.
@stueytheround Just expressing it helps honestly. Knowing I'm not alone in this is a huge relief Stuey, thank you.
@PaganMother @stueytheround I feel your pain and send my best wishes. If out of the country isn't an option Massachusetts has several protections in place and is and always been a democratic state. Let me know if you need anything!
@PaganMother If they put tangerine king back in we are going to try to get temporary residency in Mexico.
