In college- we were winning. We'd successfully helped to kill anti queer legislation, the SOU LBGTQ, we'd marched through Salem Oregon, yelled at legislators, raised holy hell, argued, made our voices heard, and the whole country seemed to be shifting in that way.

*cups your cheeks and can't hold back the tears anymore, and just hugs.*
Meminisse — Yesterday at 6:49 PM
The saddest fact of my life, is that I spent so much of my youth fighting against what has happened now.
And I think I am very likely going to die, watching every last step of what I fought against win.
I can't escape this country.
Because no where else wants an ill, aging, queer.
And this country itself doesn't want one either.

I know, tremendously well, how horrid, and wretched this nation is. I am stuck living in the cesspool of hate whipped up every day, and I see what it's done to my friends, and my family. I've seen the effect of the anti logic campaigns.
There has been a resurgance of Measels.
And Polio, in New York City.
I'm trapped in my apartment.
Because of the anti vaccine and anti mask campaigns.
Because Covid would likely kill my partner, or I.
*rubs her face*
I know very well how terrible America is on a personal level. What's more, as to the fervancy of the toxic 'facts don't care about feelings' crew? I haven't forgotten what shirts they wear to their protests.
Camp Auschwitz
6MWE
Jersey's with the number 88 on them.
So...
*wipes her eyes*

There are reasons, so many of us queers here don't consider ourselves human.
Our only exposure to humanity is people who want to harm us in the name of God.
*laughs bitterly*
Gott im Himmel.
I hate it here.

Please.
Understand.
I don't mean this hyperbolically.
This place is killing me.
Slowly.
