    As one of your southern neighbors, I agree with you. This is not a safe place for you or anyone from any other country right now.

    Hell, it’s not a safe place for me.

      I’m just counting the days 'til they declare trans people like me not just unpersons but actively illegal, and hoping the passport I requested actually shows up…

        I hope your passport shows up too… but I have a friend of a friend who is post-transition, but had their passport reverted to their birth gender because DoS is apparently doing that now. If that happens to you: I think maybe you have a good case to drive up to the Canadian border and request asylum/refugee status or something like that.

        It’s fucking insane that I’m even suggesting that to another American, in America. And it’s even more insane that it’s a reasonable and feasible idea.
