Boy howdy am I dooming today. Worrying that it is too late to get a passport, and even thinking about leaving sucks given how many painful conversations I’ve had with my partner about it - in short, he’s not going anywhere, and the idea that I might have to causes obvious stress in our relationship. He says that he will protect me but like, if shit hits the fan he won’t be able to.

I live in a deep blue area which might provide a little layer of protection, but does that just mean I’ll be even more entrenched and trapped when the liberals roll over and turn me in?
