I am glad for the change in government. I deplored 45 for thirty years before he became president, and I think it was the worst government I've experienced in my life.

I have little interest in politics. Which party, which president, has never been a big determinant of my situation. I have my ideas about what would be good governance, and I have little-to-no chance of ever seeing them manifest anywhere - and zero chances of having them realized in the US.

So, there's that. It is not that I'm completely apathetic - like I said, I have my ideals, but they are Utopian, and we are not close in this world to a Utopian society with an ideal (my definition) government.

And I see no danger of an outbreak of virtue in Washington, DC, even as its opposite has left town. 

I'm grateful for all the privilege that allows and has allowed such detached musings, and for my past political involvement, which has formed my present indifference to the same.
