I like your thought process and just want to wish you the best of luck!

I can identify with all of that. I'm seeing plenty of people and orgs so ready to "fight back" already, and I'm nowhere near ready for all that yet... this clusterfuck of nominations doesn't help anything.
Just my 2 cents, but the logistics part is substantial. Our jails and prisons are already overflowing (with the highest incarceration rate of the global north) so there's no quick process that is feasible. We should have plenty of warning as to what's coming down the works... as for having the means and ability to do anything about it? We shall see.
You're not helpless unless you don't take action. Build your community and celebrate the small wins. Find meaningful work(even volunteering) and build more connections to others. Having some of that to fall back on has kept me saner lately, and now I'm driven to focus more on that, least for the short term.
Okay, I'll bite and take a few minutes to refute yet another of your seemingly patently false statements that you provide no evidence for.
Are you talking about the expanded child tax credit that the senate didn't pass(the house did)? If so, that's not on the president.
I downvoted you at almost every opportunity bc it seems like you're just talking out of your ass, which isn't helpful. If I missed something that you're referring to for poverty, feel free to share and support your argument.
There's likely no 1 magic solution... it'll take multiple fronts: education, community-building, better(less misinformation) social media...
Is there, though? I was trying to come up with some examples yesterday and all I can find from my admittedly lefty algo are fears propagated because of Trump's words or incoming cabinet appointments. They are at least based on actual recorded words as opposed to cherry-picked data or "feels". I guess the left could be cherry-picking data to support their arguments also, but the logic seems more sound, at least to me.
Appreciate the info!
If they don't already exist, it sounds like a niche need for a third-party company that has some preset templates of different options? Add a lawyer and some legal aid and could be very helpful for the system.
Well the best 2 tours were the Golden Circle and the southern coast, where you visit a volcano, some geysers and waterfalls, and the black sands beach. Seeing the Northern Lights was amazing and the whale watching boat trip where we saw dolphins was another highlight. We've learned to schedule a guided food tour as our first excursion, as those guides are usually well-versed on the nuances of local spots/issues. We were blown away by how delicious all the food was there, except for the shark... it's worth it for the experience, but hard for me to recommend as the taste is so powerful. The museums were well worth visiting!
Beautiful stuff, y'all. Keep hope alive!
I really enjoyed visiting there a few years ago and definitely want to go back! I've since paid more attention and at least from what I've seen, statehood seems like the best path forward. My wife and I also visited Iceland last year, but that island is in a completely different situation in multiple ways. Their geothermal power is awesome though. PR could certainly benefit from renewables but more local control and growth. You're asking some good questions though.

Have you shopped other companies for rates? I switched earlier this year and cut my insurance costs by more than half! Was fucking ridiculous how it just kept climbing.
