    What happened? I’ve been trying to avoid the news.

    I really hope they get out safely

      Too much has happened recently to give a comprehensive thumbnail sketch, but basically the USA is imploding. I’d continue to avoid the news if possible, unless you have friends/family over there.

        Thanks. I would see some but just can’t keep up, the most recent was not allowing trans people to fly? It’s like a gish gallop of fascist bullshit and I can’t even process.

        I’m really sorry and hope your family members make it out safe

        there’s a lot of talk by Trump

        I’m not sure what has actually happened other than hasty job cuts and some foreign policy missteps
