Kill Your Inner Sorkin
This evening I went through and unsubscribed, un-boomarked, or otherwise dropped out of a bunch of political fora, subs, newsletters, etc. I felt the usual "good, college-educated liberal" twinge about doing it that I feel whenever I deliberately unplug from information sources. For years I thought I was someone who "was really into politics." I kept up on the polls, got excited about primaries, watched every debate, watched convention coverage, etc. etc. That was what was modeled to me as a kid. I remember being really sick during the 1980 Democratic convention and mom making a pallet on the living room...
