DeShrillification?

Despite my part-time membership in the Order of the Shrill, BuzzMachine's post-election pledge sounds utterly welcome. I just heard from my father earlier today a couple stories of longstanding friendships and even, maybe, a marriage falling apart over disagreements about the election. My bootless hope is that by next week, we'll be the guys in Ghostbusters II shaking ourselves to our senses as the bad-vibe slime is hosed off.
