Assuming You Can Afford The Safest Route, Where Do You Even Begin With Finding Somewhere Else To Live?

assuming you can afford the safest route, where do you even begin with finding somewhere else to live? i might have the privilege to escape but i still dont even know where to start

Consider who's going with you, and what kind of experience you'd like to have.

For ease of access as an english speaker, it may be worth looking into somewhere in Europe. If you've got family out of the country, it could be there.

Personally, my partners and I are looking at southeast Asia. Probably not Japan again, but somewhere in that hemisphere is where we plan to touch down. We ended up going with that region because one of my partner's is black, and we didn't want to go to a country that was especially anti-black, so pretty much every white, english-speaking colonial country was out of the question. If the goal is to go somewhere safe, we're going somewhere we can all be safe.

The hardest part is not choosing the place to go, it's getting started with the process of doing it. Make sure you pick somewhere that will be good for you, and be thorough in making your decision, but remember that you can't run a marathon without the first step.

Look up "One day living in [COUNTRY]", "Trying street food in [COUNTRY]", "First time visiting [COUNTRY]," and other kinds of videos to get an idea of the ground-level living wherever you think to go. Look up things like how much it costs to go to the dentist, how much it costs to ride the bus, how much it costs to rent a house. Look up possible visas, conversion rates between currencies, languages spoken, religions practiced, common phrases and social expectations, courtesies and customs. Get acquainted before you go, and then go.

That is my advice. I'm sorry I can't give you more.

Scout sometimes draws too much

Just imagine… 4am, your day off and this little ankle biter is already knocking on your door with a huuuge stack of his new drawings… And yet you let him in. That's crazy but cute

Scout just NEEDS that ego boost, so he shows everyone he can find his masterpieces ---

-- And then he gets shy cuz of compliments. Yep, the most confident here is red as tomato XD

I'm just thinking of Scout who decided to try painting with a brush and paint (landscapes, still lifes maybe), then he liked it (with his ADHD) and then he thought that it's sappy as hell. So he never showed that kind of his drawings to anyone else

And then there was Sniper :D

--- oohh, now my brain's giving me ideas of Jeremy painting landscape on the canvas at the picnic with his kids while they're running around, laughing, enjoying their life…😭

They'll Fund A Genocide And Let Their Poor Regions Be Destroyed. Don't Fucking Forgive Them For That.

they'll fund a genocide and let their poor regions be destroyed. don't fucking forgive them for that.

my hometown is completely gone from what pictures i can find of it, i have not heard from my family (including aunts, uncles, parents, one sibling, and a grandparent), and the infrastructure in the mountain communities is wiped out. i cannot stress how catastrophic this is, or how difficult it will be for these communities to build back. i am angry, and scared, and heartbroken by everything that's happened.

and our government is spending it's money to fund a genocide.

free palestine, and don't be complicit. realize that this is not something happening that doesn't affect you--although it shouldn't take this to care about the deaths of thousands of people anyway.
