I'm trying to strike some balance in the middle. I don't want to fully commit to moving just yet and definitely want to finish the last two semesters of my degree (an advanced STEM degree likely probably helps with any needed moving too), but I also don't want to get too comfortable and get caught off-guard if the relatively safe bubbles I live in within California and Massachusetts get unceremoniously popped at some point. Besides having always lived in large cities, there’s intersectionality to consider too. I could easily be visually mistaken for one of the people who are high priority to deport and I’m also neurodivergent in multiple ways.
