what are you going to do on Inauguration day?

[CTyankee]

I'm going to the movies but haven't decided what to go see. I am going to see "Loving" soon with a friend (I'm up for a nice love movie right about now) but haven't decided what to see the day that monster is inaugurated...

[bdamomma]

1. going to work and not turning on TV

[workinclasszero]

49. Same here but

I wish I could go to the inauguration and turn my back on the Trumpenfuhrer as he places his pu**y grabbing hand on the Bible and lies before God and man to defend the constitution.

[bdamomma]

61. I wish I could go the march

and in regards to inauguration I wish President Obama makes up an excuse and not go. Say he has to finish packing or something.

[workinclasszero]

62. It would be horrible and heartbreaking

to hand over the White House to that trash and his vultures.

We never knew how good we had it with the Obama's.

God help this country because its all going to hell in the next four years.

People have no idea what is about to engulf this nation IMO.

[bdamomma]

64. it is easy to say

but I don't think anyone who lives in the US to just let this go and normalize it like our (corporate)media is doing, I wish we were more like the Water Protectors. They are not going to let the oil companies screw up their land.

You see how tRump is going out to his supporters if you can call them that he is stoking the fire again.

I hope this guy gets engulfed by his own hate.

[2naSalit]

106. I hope so too.

But I also hope that he never makes it to that moment... and I don't much care how or why.

[ailsagirl]

72. I must have a very weak stomach because just reading your words makes me nauseous

Seriously

[a kennedy]

96. "his pu**sy SMALL hand"

isn't that what you meant to say??

[ailsagirl]

71. God, me too

Dressed completely in black

[snpsmom]

2. Driving to the million woman march

with my mom

[lunasun]

13. Thank you for being there mom too

[snpsmom]

18. If we're lucky

my daughter will be able to join us 😊

[lunasun]

73. 3 generations walk for future ones!

[MFM008]

40. You go for those of us who cant.

Be especially nasty for me.

[snpsmom]

43. You bet!

[spanone]

3. drink heavily....

[smirkymonkey]

5. That would be my first instinct, but I think I will go to the

movies instead. I just need to be distracted from it all.

[MineralMan]

4. Mourn a lost opportunity. That's what.

[MANative]

6. Hope for a meteor strike?

:/

[Eleanors38]

56. Rev Fall Flat has for some time booked Orlando.

[mainer]

7. I'm going to be in DC. Not sure how to protest the inauguration itself.

But I will definitely be in the Women's March.

[Aristus]

8. I expect there wil be a protest at the Federal Building in Seattle.

I've already put in for the day off so I can go. There will likely be members of VoteVets and Veterans For Peace There.

And I hope to see some Seattle-area DU-ers, as well.

[hlthe2b]

9. Hike/snowshoe (depending) a National Park--while they still exist...

and we can see the vista still without a plume of Trump-deregulated industrial smog.

[Tanuki]

10. Since it will be a Friday, I'll go to work and then do something to occupy myself like dinner and a

movie or live music (pretty easy since I live in Nashville). I will stay out until I'm ready to go to bed so I won't be tempted to turn on the tv. I don't want to see or hear one second of media coverage of this travesty.

[stonecutter357]

11. Flagellation

[jmg257]

12. TGIF! Work (we should be very busy), then dinner and drinks most likely.

Lots of drinks.

[world wide wally]

14. Swearing off tv and radio news is the healthiest thing I have done in a while

I strongly recommend it.

[Javaman]

15. are they going to allow us to throw eggs like at george w. moron*?

or will nazi tRumps brownshirts be out in force?

[HughBeaumont]

35. They'll confiscate anything edible or otherwise at the security checkpoints.

Kind of like they did for Der Failure Fuhrer's 2005 coronation. For an Inauguration, that was the least amount of time I had to wait to get in.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

16. I'm going to watch it all.

I hope it's windy and cold. Trump will need a hat of some sort.

It's going to be the biggest shit show ever!

[narnian60]

80. I am, too,

so I can see the embarrassing flop that it's going to be. In reality, I probably won't last long though after they show Trump's face a few times.

[maryellen99]

17. Hopefully bringing my husband home from the hospital that day

He's having robotic cancer surgery on the 18th.

[leftynyc]

24. Wishing only the best

for you and your husband's surgery. I know how scary waiting for a medical procedure can be.

[maryellen99]

47. Thank you

It's early stage Kidney Cancer and originally they weren't going to operate due to it being small but my husband also has FSGS which means he could go into ESRD in 5-15 years and you have to be 5 years cancer free to get on the transplant list.

[leftynyc]

48. Oy vey

I will certainly keep you both in my prayers.

[maryellen99]

58. Thank you nt

I kind of hope they release him Saturday because he's having it at U of M and I think there might be protests.

[MFM008]

41. The best to you both

[BainsBane]

19. Protest

and where black.

[Tanuki]

46. Good idea----I will also wear black (to work that day). n/t

[SQUEE]

20. heroin

Fuck drinking, I am going right past the bottle and bong... straight to the needle.

[geek tragedy]

21. Watch Captain America: The Winter Solider.

Hail Hydra!

[Iggo]

26. LOL.

[Initech]

38. All day Marvel marathon sounds like a good idea!

[leftynyc]

22. Wait for Bill Maher's show

which will be coming back that night. I'll watch zero of the "festivities".

[DemocratSinceBirth]

23. Protesting !!!

[MFM008]

42. Yup

[DemocratSinceBirth]

45. There will definitely be protests in L A.

it would be awesome if there was a protest by his star on the Walk Of Fame.

[Iggo]

25. Work. (n/t)

[WinkyDink]

27. Drink some alky.

[SMC22307]

28. Eat tacos and drink lots of margaritas at Los Tios with like-minded friends. (n/t)

[LenaBaby61]

29. No one I know is watching that crap ...

Personally, I'll be watching alternative programming like I have been for years ....

[TBA]

30. Going to an Inaugural Bawl

Theater group hosting a city-wide event. There will be political satire, skits. poetry all kinds of subversive entertainment.

[madaboutharry]

31. Binge watch Scandinavian Nordic Noir.

The Bridge SE on Hulu, Wallander, Codename Hunter, and Beck on Mhz Choice, might watch The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo again. All in the original Swedish and Norwegian, to compliment my dark mood.

[longship]

83. Love Scandinavian noir.

Especially Krister Henrickson as Wallander, and -- OMFG! -- Noomi Rapace as Lisabeth Salander. The books are great, too.

And yes, Beck is great, too.

MHz Worldview was my introduction to this genre (as well as Aussie Rules Football, the latter sadly no longer covered).

Sadly, my antenna rotor died, so I can no longer receive the PBS channel that broadcasts MHz Worldview.

BTW, the NHK (Japanese network) coverage of the earthquake/tsunami was superb, and MHz covered it very well.

R&K

[liberal N proud]

32. Get drunk and pass out by 10 am

[HughBeaumont]

33. Be in DC with sarcastic signs.

Next day, volunteer at the Million Woman March.

This sack of shit getting sworn in represents America's disgrace and official transition to a Plutonomy.

[MFM008]

44. Thanks

For going.

[Jose Garcia]

34. Going to work like any other day

[jambo101]

36. im retired

so i think an extra long nap is in order.

[Initech]

37. Getting out in the streets.

I would like to go to DC but the flights and hotels are outrageous. If I do join a protest I'm hoping to join one in LA or San Diego.

[MFM008]

39. I just bought 13 packs

Of Mystery Science Theater 3000 for x Mas for me.
MARATHON.......

[GoneOffShore]

50. Leaving on Jan 10 for two months in France.

I'll only glance at the tv and the net the day that Cheetolini Sporkhands pisses on the American people and the Constitution.

[Initech]

63. I would love to get out of the country for a while.

Like a couple of months, that sounds awesome. I need a break from the madness consuming our country!

[mcar]

51. Fly to DC for the Million Woman March

[chillfactor]

52. retired...

so going to watch movies, play scrabble on my laptop, and read ebooks...plenty to keep my busy and entertained...better than watching the horror show.

[Zoonart]

53. Meditate

...at the Buddhist monastery near my home. I hope there will be a lot of meditating and hate reducing compassion flooding the universe on that day.

[aka-chmeee]

54. I think participation in the inaugural parade would be nice,

perhaps in a million man moon.

[Doreen]

55. I do not know.

Though I will be mourning the loss of a great country. I do not yet know how to say goodbye to the USA and have The Corporation Of Trump forced upon me and others. I never dreamed of a day that the USA would die and be ruled by a dictator but it is happening. On January 20th we will be living in the COT ( Corporation Of Trump ). I fear for the people of this country.

[lunatica]

57. Watch Netflix and drink

[sdfernando]

59. I'm thinking of having a wake

for the former United States of America.

[Runningdawg]

60. I'm starting a journal

detailing the coming civil war and the death of America at the hands of Trump and his administration.

[neeksgeek]

102. This is a good idea!

I'm going to go through my various news bookmarks and make PDF files of all these stories. Good reference material for if/when all the online articles go down the memory hole. But I'm not waiting until the installment (I can't call it an inauguration).

[Runningdawg]

107. Thanks

It's not an original idea. I was lucky enough to read the diary of a friends grandma who survived Nazi Germany. The one thing she wrote about that I can see already happening - the razing of the media.

[ismnotwasm]

65. Laugh and laugh

[CaliforniaPeggy]

66. I will be in the hospital, recovering from my second knee replacement.......

The right one, this time.

I expect to watch the "festivities."

[mnhtnbb]

70. Oh, CalPeggy. Ugh.

Sorry to hear about the surgery.

How long after the first surgery did it take you to feel like it was "normal"? How long did you wait to do it? How long did you put
off this one?

I ask because I just saw the x-rays for the first time Tuesday of my left knee: bone on bone.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

74. You know, my dear mnhtnbb........I am looking forward to having it done!

The recovery is long.........months long. Lots of PT.

I am so glad I did it. My left knee was bone on bone too, and damn but it hurt. I had trouble standing or walking. After the surgery, those problems vanished. It was months, maybe most of a year, before I felt normal.

But it was worth it!

With my right knee now, it just recently got pretty bad, even with the steroid shots. I realized that my life was miserable with this pain, and I told my ortho doc that enough was enough, and let's just replace it! He was fine with it.

I really didn't put it off at all. I remembered how bad my left knee got before we operated, and I didn't want to go through that again. I know I will recover again and even though it's going to hurt for a while, it will ultimately pay off. I'm really tired of limping around like an old woman!

You should seriously do it. Your life will be on hold for several months but you will feel so much better. The post-op pain is readily handled with judicious use of narcotics. Best of luck to you!

[CTyankee]

82. my husband had two spinal surgeries. I finally had to get him back into serious 3 weeks of rehab

since the rehab after the surgeries just weren't enough (he refers to my doing that as "putting me in 'the home.' yep, sure did!). He was a mess! Rehab made it possible for him to live in our house altho they advised me on modifications I needed to make to accommodate his disability. I handled to whole project and was proud that I did!

[mnhtnbb]

84. I have two friends who had knees replaced

and it took them the better part of a year to feel "normal", too.

My husband and I have booked a 2 week trip to France in April. I will have to wait until we're back to do it. Not looking forward to it
given my husband's health problems.

[MFM008]

77. Been there

One in 2009 and other in 2010.
Good luck.
Do your rehab!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

85. Yup. This will be my second knee replacement too. The first was 2012.

Believe me, I will do my PT!

It makes a world of difference.

Thanks for your good wishes, my dear MFM008!

[BigBadDem]

67. Take a huge dump

.

[Solly Mack]

68. With any luck, I'll be recovering from surgery and feeling happy on pain killers.

[mfcorey1]

69. I am going to wait for President Obama to walk out to Marine One so

that I can salute him with a glass of champagne from a bottle that is chilling as I post. An era will end. Salute to the chief as his family and him exit the White House for the last time. I will thank him for a job well done despite the circumstances!

[Squinch]

75. Not turning on the TV. The next day, though, I'll be going to the million woman march in DC

[dhol82]

76. Ignore the (gag) inauguration and get ready for the march in NYC on Saturday.

We are meeting at Union Square and marching up Fifth Avenue to The Tower.

I will probably cry a lot.

[Thinkingabout]

78. Watch some good movies and ignore the news for a few days.

[SoCalNative]

79. Not watch

and will be wearing all black that day..maybe will wear nothing but black for the next 4 years.

[kerouac2]

81. No TV... can't watch anything obscene with the kids around...

and this con man and his conspirators are obscene to say the least.

[TheLibIn615]

86. I'm going to be traveling to Wisconsin for a beer festival the next day.

I can think of no better way to spend that day then 40,000 feet above this fucked up world.

And I can think of no better way to spend the next day then getting so obliviated that I don't even know my own name.

[a kennedy]

95. This is the best beer festival......not going to make it....but it's great. eom

[TheLibIn615]

97. Been there each of the last three years!

I lived in Madison from 2013-16. I moved to Tennessee for work, but I plan on going to all of the Beer and Cheese Festivals for as long as they exist!

[tinrobot]

87. I'm not going into work, not buying anything, not watching media.

I think a long hike might be in the cards.

[Raine]

88. Taking a drive up the coast nt

[greatauntoftriplets]

89. Downton Abbey DVD marathon!

[elfin]

90. Great idea. Me too.

Will be the first one I have missed since JFK.

Even thru the Bushes, watched for the pageantry and panoply of our version of a "coronation."

Can't bear the image of the Obamas leaving. That will be even worse than The Dumpster strutting, his mutant progeny beaming, except for poor Barron staring emotionlessly until the sordid spectacle is over.

[CTyankee]

91. well, this is bad. I won't do it. CAN't.

[Hortensis]

94. Should be a march in the nearest city, and if so

I've decided to drive in and join it. Peaceful, not a protest but definitely a statement of resolution.

[Dem2]

92. Same thing I do every day

nothing special. Obviously won't be watching it.

[madinmaryland]

93. Laughing at all the assholes at work worshipping tRump as they have yet to realize

they will be working until they die. Stupid motherfuckers. No retirement as 401K's will be decimated, medicare destroyed. Fuck them, just as I will be fucked.

FUCK THE REPUBICANS. (BTW, regardless of spellcheck, I did spell Repubican correctly).

[Adrahil]

98. gonna print out a picture of the new President

And piss on it.

[romanic]

99. Same as always

Just live my life and work, not gonna let Mr. Toupee affect my daily schedule.

[LWolf]

100. Here on the left coast,

I'll be working all day. When I'm done with the work day, I will meet some colleagues at a local pub for burgers and beer before heading home. Once home, I'll clean the barn and feed the horses; at that point, I'll feel some satisfaction that my barn holds less manure than the White House from that point forward. I'll go in the house, make dinner, call my family to confirm Saturday's family plans, and curl up with a book. Neither the tv nor the computer will be active.

[AgadorSparticus]

101. I am not entirely convinced the monster will be inaugurated.

But if he is, I will continue with life and avoid ALL media. I am so thankful I made the decision to get rid of cable years ago. It had helped to keep the garbage out of the house.

[lonestarnot]

104. Neither am I, but I'm with the guy below and his/her countdown clock to implosion of the yammering

yam.

[SeattleVet]

103. Start the countdown clock to the end of his administration.

Providing, of course, that the ones that voted for him don't run him out of office when they realize how badly they were scammed.

[CTyankee]

105. I don't think I know anybody who voted for him, but if I did I'd wait patiently for him to screw

them over and say "Are you feeling great again?"

[Lyric]

108. Take lots of my Klonopin and try not to vomit
