I feel the same.

Plus, I think to not expect hugs at a public event of celebration, or support, or remembrance, or all three, is unusual.

It’s sad to think teachers can’t hug kids anymore or ruffle their hair or pat their back.

Joe had a bunch of criticism for saying social norms have changed. But it’s true they have. It’s sad to me.

I think now how Princess Di used to physically touch people. Everyone thought it was beautiful then.

Times have indeed changed.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
