We need an "I'm an academic expert on fascism. Of you see me running try and keep up" tee shirt
If you see me running, try to keep up*
They're fascism experts, not grammar experts
They study Nazis, not grammar nazis
My therapist called me a canary in the coal mine. I'm trans, I have the means to move, basically it was a "if you leave suddenly I'll know things have gotten really bad". I've almost gotten everything lined up to move on a plan but I'm still keeping my bug out bag around in case something bad enough happens I need to leave day of to try and get past the border
Any advice for someone starting this sort of planning (beyond "you should've started a year ago)?
Be born with Irish grandparents.
Hah! I wish. Last 4+ generations of my family were born in the US.
Ehhmm.. Would you happen to need a live in maid, assistant, gardener, groundskeeper..anything wherever you end up? Asking for a friend.
Straight up if I find a place with enough space and I can afford the rent, I'm going to try and bring in another person and give them free or greatly reduced rent. I can't help with the residency permit stuff but helping someone land is the least I can do
Same as the other comment. That's very generous of you.
Housing is pretty much the main concern for me regarding moving at this time.
