Yesterday, when she was done with it, my mother took the style section of the Washington Post over to the two gay guys that live next door to give it to the one of them whose mother had been profile as someone who was finally voting for the first time. Bit late of her, especially with a son so directly affected by the politics she seemingly wanted to not care about, but he was apparently delighted to see her written about there, complete with a nice big picture.
Such stories are all well and good, but the more I hear about what's going on, the more likely it seems Trump is going to blatantly steal this election. And meanwhile, there are also stories about GWU advising its students to stock up on essentials and DC residents boarding their houses up, bracing for the violence in the streets we've long known is going to be coming, possibly regardless of outcome. Ours is not a neighborhood likely to be directly targeted for such things, but if things get big enough...well, our house is not far enough from the Potomac for my comfort, honestly.
