How do you celebrate today?

[pErvinalia]

I half feel like staying up to watch Biden's inauguration (at 3am) just to know the exact moment that orange cunt is no longer president. I hope it all goes off without right wing violence.

[Hermit]

OK, my mood has unexpectedly turned about. I'm celebrating. The change crept up on me while watching the build-up to the inauguration. There it was - all the pomp and ritual I always despised; the gawdawful music belted out by the military band; the pompous dress uniforms; officers decked out with gold braids and medals; people making their entrances in order of notability; protocol from end to end; Crappy from end to end.

And yet ... and yet, this signalled something out of the ordinary. It signalled the end of a nightmare that culminated in an attempt to destroy what passes for democracy, encouraged by a psychopath who wanted to retain his role as head of the United States of America by undemocratic means. He invited a bunch of hooligans to halt the traditional process of handing the office of the presidency to his democratically elected successor.

This otherwise despicable ritual signalled that the psychopath had failed in his endeavour. As such it touched me in an unexpected way. Starting tomorrow there will be disappointments galore. The about-to-become President guarantees it. I wrote about the reasons why he will earlier. But now I am elated, to say the least, that the ogre has left the scene of his crimes. In a way it is a good thing he broke with tradition and, with tail between his legs, retreated to his lair. so, cheers.

Fuckit. There goes Lady Gaga. I'm standing. how fucking ridiculous.

I took the kids to the pub first thing so we were the only people there. We sat outside by the water and stuffed ourselves silly with one of these:

My run might be cancelled, in favour of a bush hike with my sweetheart. Sunset in the boreal forest, holding hands with my love...if it could be better, I can't imagine how.

If any of you still want to run, I'll make time, but it will have to be after dark, as my sweetheart outranks Biden, Trump, Hermit and all the rest of you.

[Cunt]

I hope it all goes off without right wing violence.

I hope it goes off without ANY violence.

Not sure either flavour is better than the other...

Does she know you play a Cunt on the Internet?

I'm very pleased to say, she knows me better than anyone. Certainly better than me.

Heck, she might have a sock here, or stalking my other accounts. Would likely be bored, though.

You would be lucky to merely have a friend like her. Her relentless care and gentleness with others, punctuated by the occasional incisive round of questions, has been a treat to be near. I'm better because she is on my side.

I wish you a better life than me, but I doubt you could show it in any way. Maybe a better 10k time...

Yeah, we're still gravely ill, but the tumor has been excised.

[Sean Hayden]

It's worth a bit of for now at least.

[Animavore]

Celebrate today. Get over the hangover for the next four years.

[Joe]

Hangover, chemo, something like that.

I was born in Delaware, Wilmington General Hospital, to be precise. Lived my first 6 years in Dover. I remember eating blue crabs and cherrystone clams on the half shell as a mere sprat of a lad. Been a few years since I've visited, think the last time was in 2016.

They make probably the best sub sandwiches on the planet, MUCH better than that soggy ass soft bread shite from Jersey or New York. The bread is chewy and crusty, you need good teeth. Great place for seafood.

Then there's George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers, they're Bad to the Bone.

Does she have a right wing bias too?

[Cunt]

Does she have a right wing bias too?

Depends how left the person asking is.

I'm mostly left, on issues. Seen as right mainly because I won't hate who I'm 'supposed' to. For instance, I still don't believe Trump is more 'racist' than Biden or Harris. It changes how I perceive a priori arguments where the initial premise is that Trump is racist...
