Good to hear from you, Chris, and thanks for reading. That's great! Glad you had a good time here. The city has so much to offer. And yes, I think a lot of people resonate with that aspect of many college experiences in this era.

I avoided much of the leftist stuff on campus. But in December 2019 i move to Portland, Oregon. 2020 and the covid stuff in the yeasrs following really made me dislike left. I’m just now starting to see a devout leftist as someone I’m willing to associate with.
