  • As someone from and currently still living in middle America, Trump winning wasn’t surprising in the least. Part of me still blames the Democrats and “coastal left” in general for not paying enough attention to what has been going on here over the last thirty years. There was a time when these states could have become a bulwark for leftism with the right campaigning and political tactics, but by ignoring and culturally minimizing them it guaranteed that Christo-fascism would take hold. Ultimately though, people’s choices are their own, it’s just not worth it anymore and my husband and I are moving to New England in August and never looking back.













  • My husband is FTM trans and we’re starting to get worried, living in Ohio. We’ve made the decision to move to Vermont this August because I just can’t guarantee his safety anymore. His family is wholly unsupportive and mine, while not malicious, just doesn’t get why we’re making such a big deal out something so small. It’s always “well [town name] is [town name], it’s always been rednecky, you just need to hunker down and wait for it all the blow over”. Not like this, and I don’t want to move into one of the 3-Cs just to have the whole state go tits up. It sucks, but at least in VT he’ll have access to a doctor. That and Ben & Jerry’s.
