I didn’t realize your articles were paywalled now. As a subscriber, I see no indication of that, and when I share it with friends that can’t read it, it’s a frustrating experience.

Moving countries is one of the most stressful and ungrateful experiences you can choose to undertake on your own. Here’s an example where
@monzo.com
just rejected my application, potentially because I don’t have a credit history here yet. And the messaging is so aggressive. No exceptions.

It's been 9 years since l arrived in the US. Next month I'm moving out. It's been a great time, and I made great friends. However the constant aggressive developments towards immigrants and the LGBTQ+ community made me reconsider everything.
