Because I am getting this question dozens of times in my DMs from trans people/parents... If you're trying to move for safety: Countries: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, France. States: Any blue state on my risk assessment map, which I'll update post-election.

Some immediate steps I believe that all trans people should take: - Get your passport. Today. It takes time to come in and this will likely be shut down under Trump. - Update every ID your state allows you to. - Make sure you have a supply of medication in case of disruption

I wrote a piece about the recent events at WVU. As someone who applied to WVU because it was the affordable option, I am so grateful for the education I was able to receive and heartbroken for those who will not have that same opportunity. link.medium.com/N3RjEHsX7Cb
