Welcome back to the good old USA. In the media, everything seems like a toxic waste dump ... but when I go on walks or go the grocery store, I love my neighbors. Funny huh?
Thank you! I'm glad to be back. So far, people have been way nicer than I've feared. I knew a few people in Japan who'd visited the US and said the vibe had totally changed in recent years, but they visited different areas of the country.

Welcome home, and yes, the political atmosphere and the increased sectional hate is more toxic than I remember in my lifetime.
Thank you. Everyone has been kind and friendly so far, especially compared to what it was like in Philadelphia, and I lived there prior to 2016!
