First, I wanna be old.

Second, I want all my thoughts and memories with me.

Third, I wanna live somewhere where the government isn’t hostile to me, and where I’m safe.

It’s a lot to ask.

    Edinburgh! I'll go to an old people's home if necessary, good way to make friends and reduce stress.

    not sure, I guess I hope to euthenize myself when I get old enough, and until then where I live will probably be a result of my circumstances more than anything else.

    So maybe live somewhere euthanasia is an option?

    I'm more confident than I was in middle school, but I'm still not sure if I'm gonna make it to 20 or not.

    if estrogen or college doesn't improve things then idk what else I could change to make life worth living lol

    after around 3 months of estrogen I became what I call "irrationally life affirming" - nothing objectively had changed about the world or my circumstances, but I wanted to be alive and felt happy anyway.

    let's hope it does the magic for you too, friend 💖

  • I recently learned about and met some lovely folks involved with a lesbian commune that's been running continuously for over 50 years where some of the current residents are in their 80s. Something like that sounds really nice.

    I want to live where I am currently living. The weather is beautiful most of the year, it never gets cold enough for my arthritis to kick in much, and there is SO MUCH to do in this city/county. It is a high cost of living, but I happily pay that to be exactly where I want to be.

    I want to retire to the backwoods of Nepal and seek employment as a goat.
