    It’s definitely shitty and stressful a lot of the time that’s for sure…

    The air is changing in the area (especially compared to when I was young) in a good way but the ones that have shitty views are getting more blood thirsty in how they talk. The youths are getting more progressive here, hell I was getting ice cream with a boyfriend a few months ago and we overheard some teens openly talking about being queer. When we were that young we wouldn’t have dared to do that fearing for our lives.

    If shit does hit the fan (like we do fear) at least my friends and found family have plans for how to make it out the other side alive. And hopefully inspire others to continue the fight no matter the odds.

      Yeah, think it’s the “cornered animals” phase of this societal transition, cement-brains are losing their shit left and right. Hopefully, empathy and reason will eventually triumph over this utter bullshit…

      If not, as you’ve said, when shit hits the fan, we’ll slap it right back at them. I mean, enough is enough, someone has to knock some sense back into’em…

      In the meantime, I’m happy to hear you’re not alone out there, and I wish you and the ones close to you nothing but peace and love! Stay safe and stay strong! Us sinners gotta stick together!
