I'm too afraid to ask my dad. I think he's content, and I think T electors almost all are because otherwise it means realizing the terrible mistake they've made...
-
@claritus you mean people who are e.g. Iranian + Canadian? I agree @ThePomoHipster, I never truly imagined myself moving into a fascist country. I guess noone but his electors thought all of this would actually happen.

I don't think you should worry about obtaining a visa, it's very clear that their restrictions target Muslim countries only...

Double-post: OK so now that he's banned immigrants from 7 muslim countries, should we expect more terrorism in the US? Are we going to DIE, folks?!

Thank you @Wyatt's Terps, I have to say reading you yesterday --and having one or two beers too many-- made me cry a little <3 I still have much more privilege than other individuals, though, so I don't think I deserve so much credit. But one way or another... Let's do this, people!!!

Yeah, I've also thought about not moving to the US anymore. However, wanting to attend a US grad school is motivated by reasons other than academic interest, and I decided that my personal reasons were stronger than Dump's presidency (which I hope to be shorter than the expected 4 years). As a queer woman, I feel threatened of course--but in a way I feel it is important that the progressive and "smart" people stay in the US and fight.

Yeah true, English = complit at Columbia! -
Thank you for your website, @tvethiopia! Very helpful. I'm terrified at this point. I knew there would be damage done, but I didn't really want to believe it. About the scientific twitter accounts protesting censure, do you know if the Trump administration had been really following protocol, or if they are 100% right to be rebelling? I thought I read something about them all being asked to not communicate during the transition, but I'm now I don't trust any source on the internet or even in newspapers.

Personally, I'm moving out of my apartment end of May and will spend the summer with my mom until I leave. Since I'm in France right now and will be moving anyway, whatever the outcome of this app season, and since I'll just be done with my BA, it's a little easier for me. I'll probably leave in July, so I can stay with my dad a little while and get my driver's license in Florida. And help with the transition before I leave to wherever!

The thing is that Berkeley said it would have sent out answers by Feb so I thought I'd know by now -
I'd also wait a little. I don't it's very appropriate to ask, or maybe not now. Gotta be patient like the rest of us

Working on planning my moving to the US, and naturally on my back-up plans. Honestly it feels good because I'm so scared of grad schools that my alternative options are to my liking too.
