i like the happy vacuum. <3

i, too, have a friend that in all-in for elon and made tons of money with tesla stock; he is an elon and trump supporter, etc.

we talk politics regularly, and almost always disagree in these conversations. it can get a little heated sometimes, but we are pretty good at catching ourselves… after all, politics are all opinion-based, so our politics being on the opposite ends if the spectrum are understandable.

if talking politics is too much for the friendship to handle, then i recommend talking about it less (even though it can be difficult when every other story in the news is about it rn). if he brings up a political point, tell him you would rather not talk politics (i say this to my father whenever he comes over, too; its a lot easier to enjoy someone’s company through an enforced facade)
