May 2020

after the election even though it wasn't due for renewal for another year because I expected incompetence, delays, and possibly outright refusal to issue passports from a Trump administration.

It pains me to see this become reality, although I absolutely did not see a pandemic shutting down travel. I don't expect to travel anywhere by plane in the foreseeable future. My current passport will expire in 2026.
