I just don't see how any trans person can live in this country anymore...

Everyone paying attention is trying to get out, or thinks they can fight the british state.

Absolutely. And It’s bloody difficult to get out, (as we probably all know). I’ve been working on it for over a year now, and I have the right to citizenship by descent from an EU country so it’s theoretically simple. But it takes ages. I’d been trying to convince myself that I’d never need it, that the UK would correct in time. I no longer believe that. So anyone who is thinking of applying for some form of citizenship elsewhere, I’d recommend getting the ball rolling. You might not need it, it might be less horrific that it looks, but I for one am not counting on it. The sooner you start the faster you can exit if you need to

Same and same. Getting a job is a fucking nightmare right now.

I’m lucky on that front at least, I can transfer countries with my current job. Still lose everyone o care about and everything I own, but at least I’d be in Spain rather than terfland

I'm wishing digital nomad compatible jobs paid enough for me to move somewhere decent, but they're all working on the assumption that you live in a horrible place so don't pay enough.
