Resolution # 3: Don’t go down “what if” rabbit holes ⤵️

@selectedwisdom #6: Read about Susan B. Anthony (or Thurgood Marshall!) and feel inspired.

@selectedwisdom . . . what did I do? I made sure everyone at the party was registered to vote and I got them to promise they'd vote. (I know how they'll all vote. So I asked for promises that they would.)
