Becoming a civilian again after being in the military was interesting. Simple things felt weird all the time; I kept feeling like I had to show my ID to buy groceries, stuff like that. But probably moving to the East Coast (NoVA) from Colorado in 2002 was the biggest. I was in absolute shock at the price of housing, hours of commuting every day, and most of all, how horrible the people were. Mean, rude people, angry all the time and intentionally threatening on the roads. Being there made me cry a lot in the first year.

I assume nearly half of the country hates her for being black and/or a woman, while some other large chunk of the country hates her for being "a cop." I think she's fine. She's done the job a hell of a lot better than a whole list of other VPs I could name. And since I'll be voting against Republicans no matter what, if a Biden-Harris ticket is the opposition I'll be checking that box. No problem.

Tough question, but I found The Gone World by Tom Sweterlitsch to be very disturbing. It really freaked me out in places.
