What will you be doing during the Inauguration ceremony/"celebration"?

[CTyankee]

Since my idea of going to Paris got nixed by my husband, I haven't decided what I will do....

[Sneederbunk]

1. Not watching.

Will rely on W. to tell me if it is some weird sh*t.

[CTyankee]

3. I was just remembering that from the first go round....loved it!

[Freddie]

2. Watching my grandchildren

No school that day (MLK Day). TV will be on shows they like as their mom doesn’t like them to hear cursing.

[Marigold]

4. My birthday is a few days before that

I'm going to Canada for the week to forget both.

[SharonClark]

5. I'll be at a brunch honoring Martin Luther King day

and collecting food for a local food bank.

[CTyankee]

8. That's wonderful. A truly great idea.

[snowybirdie]

6. Probably

Doing laundry

[nitpicked]

7. Hopefully won't be sick

So I have options on what to do.

[The Wizard]

9. TCM and gummies

[JanMichael]

10. Watching V for Vendetta and drinking

[sakabatou]

11. Probably watch or read stuff I need to catch up on.

[hlthe2b]

12. I will renew my access to ESPN Sports just that month via Youtube TV to watch the

The 2024-25 College Football Playoff National Championship Game is set for Monday, Jan. 20, 2025, on ESPN at Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta. I expect it won't coincide with that actual disgusting event in DC, but I will take a long hike with the pup, weather permitting until then.

I will no more watch the horrorfest in DC than I did his "American Carnage" spiel in 2016. I am only curious if GWBush* will attend again to say that "was some weird shit"--probably the only thing I could both agree with from him and find slightly endearing. How painful it will be for any of them to attend, but HRC, Harris, and the Obamas in particular.

[CTyankee]

13. I would like to see them. I know they will add class to the ceremony, but the MAGA crowd will probably boo them.

It will be a national spectacle. I just hope I don't throw up.

[DaBronx]

14. Brushing up on the constitution

[Ping Tung]

15. Doing something more enlightening ......like listening to hear grass grow or snails marching. ing.

[moonscape]

16. Getting out into nature. Yeah, weather

won’t be ideal, but as long as it’s not raining it will be okay since my climate doesn’t make that prohibitive.

And if it’s raining, a long drive along the coast, stopping somewhere for some fresh fish.

[Climate Crusader]

17. I would love to see a giant, charity concert event to benefit

Civil Rights, Legal Defense and Social Support organizations. Huge stars, big acts all, at the very time of the inauguration, raising miney for the resistence.

[milestogo]

18. Working.

[Boomerproud]

20. ...and ignoring what's going on.

nt

[milestogo]

21. Actually if that is a holiday

I may go to a MLK Jr. celebration.

[Boomerproud]

25. I would do that if I were you.

[Emile]

19. Maybe go ice fishing, of course that depends on the weather.

[a kennedy]

22. Not watching that's for sure.......

Maybe I’ll do a little gambling so as not to even be near any of that shit show.

[mr715]

23. Drugs n/t

[msfiddlestix]

24. do you live some where you can go for a long hike? kayaking?

I"'m thinking of holding a nice, day long pot luck jam session.
Or maybe I'll just head out to the coast.

[CousinIT]

26. My TV will be off the entire day or I'll watch my favorite shows, reruns of them, or movies.

I will absolutely NOT be watching the funeral of our Republic.

[niyad]

27. Making poppets! After I return from the MLK breakfast at my college

(assuming it is not BITTER COLD like this year's)..

[TommieMommy]

28. Cleaning floors then Netflix and chill with some comfort food

[underpants]

29. I wonder if I'd get in trouble for shooting off a flare

Just shoot it up or down the river where everyone would see it.

[kimbutgar]

30. Wearing black and not watching it.

Probably do my weekly grocery shopping, maybe working one of my two jobs,

[lkinwi]

31. Hopefully I find something to do at h on YouTube.

[surfered]

32. Some channel should replay the Obama inauguration.

[haele]

33. Getting ready to deal with competing idiots at a quarterly project review

Juggling existing baselines with delivery expectations, funding and several year schedule delays. Oh, and already contracted vendors with their own schedules and constraints.
And trying to teach the grandkids how make a dozen 19th century style fruit cakes for next year.

Haele

[Crunchy Frog]

34. Sleeping hopefully.

Probably hung over.

[electric_blue68]

35. Somewhat before oath I'll check 2 see which Dems are there, then off it goes. Turn to other TV, or movie. Check news...

later for protests.


Was at Prs Clinton's first, and both of Obama's Inaugurations. Thrilling.

Kamala's would have been amazing.

And I certainly won't be watching any Inaugural Balls - unless there's an "Anti" one.

[nitpicked]

36. I may just keep it on Faux Weather

Or turn on a local PBS channel broadcasting NHK.

[carpetbagger]

37. Hanging out with my girlfriend's Canadian family.

In Canada, they argue greatly over politics, one's a socialist union rep who was once told to fuck off (those words) by Joe Lieberman, one's a right-wing retired RCAF veteran, president of the Canada Persian Gulf Veterans who spends his days sharing FB memes against Trudeau. In America, they're all well within the Democratic tent.

[Mossfern]

38. Monday is a therapy day for me

Neurofeedback 9:00 - 9:45 am
Deep Brain Reorientation 10:00 - 11:00 am

Take a few hours to let things "take " - maybe draw or paint.

Psychotherapy 4:00 - 4:45 pm

It's an exhausting day for sure and I will not spoil any progress by watching the inauguration
or even thinking about politics.

[Oopsie Daisy]

39. I'll do some winter cleaning. At this point, I just need to keep my little corner of the world feeling cozy *

* and tidy and comforting.

[Richard D]

40. I don't know what I will be doing . . .

. . . but I'm 100% certain of what I won't be doing!

[Meowmee]

41. If I am not working

I will probably sleep through the whole thing since I’m nocturnal mostly now. I didn’t watch the last one and I don’t plan to watch any of this further demise of the country for the most part. If everyone stopped watching the news and all of this, it would at least take his narcissistic supply away to some degree.
