Hi Blueskyers!✋
Well.... I´m finally getting around to migrating from The Other Place That Shall Not Be Named...
Flying around in exploration of these new horizons, and hoping to connect with friends old and new.

When he showed up to an immigration meeting in Memphis, Kasper Eriksen thought he was on the verge of becoming a citizen.
Then ICE arrested the Mississippi father of four, not even giving him a chance to say goodbye to his wife, whisking him away to a prison.

The evil far right are rising.
Yesterday there were local elections in some areas. It's shocking to wake up and see the Reform party has taken seats.
People can see what brexit has done to the UK. They can see what maga is doing in the USA and yet they voted Reform.
A nazi party rooted in hatred.
