Gay man here in Missouri. A lot of my trans friends and me are very concerned about our futures.
You should be. We should all be concerned about our futures. I’m a white, CIS guy, and I’m concerned. We’re completely off the rails now.
I’m concerned about your futures too. My daughter is queer and as of 2 am this morning, we’ve been working on plans to get to the UK, where I have dual citizenship.
Doo it. You should me able to get a family visa as long as your daughter is under 18 and your family income is over £29k.
We’re working on it. My wife is sending out resumes today.
care to take 3 along with you?
I wish I could. I wish I could take my daughter’s girlfriend and her trans friend with me.
That would be much better for sure
Godspeed
Any chance you and your friends can hijack a decent State and dig a giant moat around it?
I think our best hope is to move to California and then wait for The Big One to break CA off from the rest of the US.
Move to Alaska. We need more left-leaning people. We’re already starting to go purple and our population is so low that it probably won’t take much to get us to go solidly blue.
Plus, you won’t have to wait for a massive earthquake to separate you from the rest of the country. Canada will do that.
What do you actually believe is going to happen to you? Why didn’t it happen during his first presidency? Unless you were killed and are talking from beyond the grave? In which case I’m sorry you’re dead.
Some of it did happen, including a million unnecessary COVID deaths. The rest didn’t because Republicans didn’t control all three branches of government. They will in January.
People are really showing America’s ignorance on basic civics. It’s so depressing.
Never kill yourself for something that’s somebody else’s fault.
Don’t forget what happened with O’Brien next.
#facts right here!

I have to believe that it can get better.
Will it have a chance to get better?
Maybe. But not for a long time. Probably not in our lifetimes.
Sigh… yeah.
Rome fell too, once upon a time, long may it continue in our hearts.
I wish I shared your optimism.
Don’t confuse optimism for desperation:-)
But Star Trek is a great example of what can come after e.g. Bell Riots.
We learn and grow through pain.
You seem to have missed the global nuclear war that happened between the bell riots and shiny space communism.
Wouldn’t mind avoiding that, though it seems like thats getting more and more probable.
Things might get better, after everyone dies for stupid bullshit, but that’s hardly a comfort.
Well, I did say after:-).
All that we can hope to do is to give it our best shot.
Edit:
I wish I lived to see Cochrans first warp test but it’s the Bell riots for us instead. Fuck I hate this timeline
Well to be fair, the bell riots happened on the way to Cochrane’s big test. Mind you, we now have WW3 to look forward to…
It’s not a phaser, but… I’ve thought about it today.
Yep.
