I think this is one of those things that's stunning, in all the worst ways, and most of them aren't obvious.

@Impossible_PhD I know so many trans people who've recently fled to Seattle from Texas, Florida, etc. The ones who first moved had connections, jobs, housing to land in, money. But I'm seeing more and more who don't know a soul, don't have networks, don't have money or jobs or housing, and capitalism and our high cost of living is a different kind of disaster when they get here.
