So many people still believe reason will prevail. There is no socially acceptable way to talk about my world.
-
"How are you doing?" "Um. Seven states are trying to criminalize being trans. My country was sold to Russia. Freedom of speech is at risk."
-
"How was your day?" "A not insignificant number of people in my social graph are legitimately worried about being political prisoners."
-
I don't want to go to jail. I don't want to be killed. I want to continue building beautiful worlds and being among the people I love.

But it's a lot harder to do that third thing when I'm desperately searching for solutions to the first two things.
