well…here’s the post I hoped I wouldn’t have to write. Trump won. And by all counts and measures, he won by a lot. The imagery of a red wave is pretty apropos. I hope the kids feel good about voting nonetheless. It sure was a polarizing first experience. So disorientating for steph and I waking up this morn. Not like the loss of a parent or anything. Just like being forced to tune into a channel you never wanted to watch. A massively collective, abrupt reflection of our national identity.
