  • On the one hand I’ve been thinking about leaving the country. I really don’t think Canada is a safe move. Especially because it’s the first thought for so many left wing Americans and it’s so close. I also don’t think it’s inconceivable that a more dictitorual Trump ends up invading Canada…I’ve been thinking about trying to live in Vietnam myself… I figure if they can keep the USA out then international politics isn’t something id have to worry about to much there. They’re actual leftists and the money I have here should stretch even farther there to help the transition. I’ve also tried to talk a few friends into coming along with me if it goes bad we’ll see how that works I’m going to try to get 15ish friends to agree hopefully at least a few will follow through.

    The other side of my mind thinks that’s extreme and doesn’t want to leave. That side does think that getting some rice and beans one of those giant rechargeable batteries with solar panels is a good idea though.





  • Consistently go to a group that is centered around an interest of yours. Consistency is key.

    Use apps like meetup to find these groups.

    If you’re nerdy/geeky Aunt like computers and making stuff or 3D printing. I recommend looking in the maker spaces. There a lot of them around. They are communities where people can contribute what they have and people get together and make stuff and learn from each other.

    If you’re kinky, I recommend looking into local BDSM clubs. I find the crowds there tend to be very leftist.

    Those aren’t your speed. Maybe something more basic like a hiking group. Maybe there are salsa dance classes at a bar/cantina near you every week. Doesn’t really matter what it is. Just find a group that’s centered around something you like. Then attend that group regularly. Do that long enough you will make friends.

    I hope that helps comrade 👈😎

    Also remember most people suck so if you make a bad impression or piss some people off they were probably shitty people to begin with. Don’t let it discourage you. 😊
