      I would like the option. Being an American citizen is now like not unlike a soiled piece of toilet paper: Unpleasant and not worth keeping. After all, Project 2025’s backers don’t give a damn about citizenship or American society.

        Ok here’s the plan:

        Move to Minnesota.

        Canada joins the EU.

        Minnesota joins Canada.

        Probably not likely to happen or work, but uh… fucking who knows these days.

          There are a lot of in demand jobs, from nurse to developer if you don’t mind working in those specific fields you can skip a lot of those steps.

            I am unfortunately currently disabled… got maimed, my full time job is PT for myself.

            I do have decent job experience as a software dev, db admin, data analyst… but yeah I am kind of fucked at the moment, legs fucked, barely mobile, wrist is fucked, can’t type for more than short bursts.

            The PT is working though, and I have considered various kinds of skilled tech laborer style visa applications… but its all gonna have to wait untill i both figurstively and literslly get back on my feet.
