Dear Starshine,
I am an avid Planned Parenthood volunteer and started volunteering to Get Out the Vote in 2008 because I was inspired by Obama to volunteer.
A few years ago, I knocked on your door, and I was kinda fangirling out because I recognized your name, but I tried to play it cool. I always felt bad about intruding, sweaty, into people’s front gardens and peeking into their homes. After 2016, the stakes are too high, though, for any sort of sense of shame or embarrassment about chafing thighs from underwear soaked with sweat, stinky armpits, or knocking too vigorously on the door of a citizen who works the night shift.
