Yeah, the responses on Instagram have been tough to watch. Some straight up let their feelings known how much they didn’t like the situation. Others were more “Oh well” about it, and some were chipper as if they’d wanted to do that anyway.
But it was the sad and confused ones that bothered me the most – and the ones smiling through tears (metaphorically) , doing their best to appear positive.
