Truthfully, I’ve been a complete existential-dread ridden anxious wreck ever since 2013, to one extent or another, because I kept having my worst fears for the US come true.
I’m legitimately surprised that I’m handling this latest spate of bad signs better than I have in the past. But I am.

I really did spend much of 2013 and 2014 - when I was in grad school at Stanford, immediately after Cambodia - utterly destroyed by anxiety and dread about the GOP extremism I’d realized was coming swiftly down the pipeline in the US. I was a *wreck*.

That was a nice couple of years or so there. Not ecstatically happy or anything, but probably most content in my life. I'll treasure them always.
