The people in the city have learned to shut the fuck up about politics. Everyone has already had that conversation a thousand times. They know how it will go, and we’ve distanced ourselves from the people who won’t shut the fuck up about it.
If it were a movie, it would be the quiet tense part where everybody looks at each other but no one says anything for fear of setting off the bomb in the middle of the room.
You know who the people are and what will set them off, you give them space. And you watch them for mood swings. If ol Carmen comes in to work like a bat outta hell, you give him a LOT of space.
We’re talking about it here, but we’re doing it with people we know, over text, or in person.
