Horrific, I fled the US a few weeks ago and things are getting worse here as well. I’m surrounded exclusively by transphobic far-right cishet white men. I was sent to an all boys school and it sucks here. Some new kid showed up who loudly declared that “Muslims don’t deserve rights”, the school administration is requiring I respect his opinion because apparently his opinion is respectable. Meanwhile all of my viewpoints are shut down as extremist (even when all I say is that dehumanizing and othering people is bad). I hate this country, I hate these people, and I hate this dark cruel world I live in.
I’ve spent a lot of the week crying. My heart is truly broken for my fellow trans people in the US who no longer feel safe. I feel like things here in the UK will not be so far behind in another five years or so.
I decided my resting heart rate wasn’t high enough from stress and decided to get my COVID and flu vaccines this weekend. I feel tired and icky, but it’ll be worth it.
Everyone take care of yourselves, you are important 🫶🩷🩵🤍
