29. Shocker...
Wed Sep 3, 2025, 12:16 PM
Wednesday

I live abroad but I'm currently in the US visiting family. They're the only reason I step foot on US soil anymore.
My partner will not come over until the immigration situation changes dramatically, and he's not even worried about them looking at his phone or socials.

On a related note, I'm amazed at how weirdly normal everything seems here. And how expensive stuff is (holy crap is it expensive!)
