    Oh I can tell you who’s out. Way the fuck out before the end of January and probably not coming back in the foreseeable future:

      Sad, right after that library was built. But these are the real consequences of fascism

        Yep. And we have been talking about it on and off for a while, especially back when Biden was still running. But life has to go on until we’re ready to go.

      I am doing my best too, but my two youngest kids are now over 18 and I am unsure how we can bring them with us. Plus I own my own business and have a lot of inventory to unload so we have the capital to get out of town.

      I wish we had not been complacent for the last 4 years and had spent that time getting ready for today,

        Yeah, it’s going to be a lot of work, but I have a leg up because I’m a dual US/UK citizen. But we’ll still have to sell the house, get us and the dogs over there, find a new place to live, find work…

          My wife works for a company that has offices in multiple EU countries and was authorized to work from any of them. But we also have the house to sell (which is a double wide mobile home not on a permanent foundation so it will be very difficult to sell), and animals to move too. Best of luck to you and your family.
