Just left the dust gross buthole of texas, and now love my new home in the Minneapolis Metro,and that's despite not having found the right combo of housing/job. I live in my car and have never felt more safe (from antitrans hate) than now.
can't really leave that recommendation without qualifying it: thats probably of because I'm not a POC. I do have interactions with the police fairly regularly. And i'm accutely aware of my privilege each time.*
This is very roundabout and only 1/4 serious... but you could maybe even earn some pocket change becoming a cam-person. Stream with device, with the app backgrounded, and watch the stream from your web browser. There is always a built in delay of a few seconds, and you can make money/get internet bullied.
