I lived in China for +15 yrs. Left 2 years after Xi. I saw what was coming and what was no more. Still an expat in a different country, lease out a house in the U.S., and pay my taxes. No regrets in not living in the U.S.
Nowhere is perfect but where I am is very good and the people are kind.

srament.bsky.social•132 days ago

I’ll be watching a Repair Shop marathon. Lighting a candle and honoring the British gods of fixing things.

sarcasticcanuck.bsky.social•133 days ago

Hoping he has record low turnout.

teasa.bsky.social•133 days ago

I think a lot of people will be watch Netflix or napping those two days 😂

wutthewut.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’m planning something on January 20th that takes me off the grid.

alwaysinabook.bsky.social•132 days ago

I wanna go off the grid!

wutthewut.bsky.social•132 days ago

Me, too!

alwaysinabook.bsky.social•132 days ago

We need a plan! 🏝️

wutthewut.bsky.social•132 days ago

Absolutely. We need to organize an off the grid day for 1/20/25. #OffTheGridDayJanuary20 How’s this for an example?

mulhaley.bsky.social•133 days ago

We have the same plan. We’re paying him as little attention as possible.

rondafaye.bsky.social•132 days ago

Let’s all vow not to watch the inauguration coverage — not one bit of it. Low ratings will devastate him.

agnesbrowne.bsky.social•133 days ago

Sounds like a plan!

calsantafe.bsky.social•132 days ago

I’m not watching, but CNN
and MSNBC must run a real time factcheck crawl
during the coronation address

ogkramer67.bsky.social•133 days ago

Find a Women’s March and join it. Let the Women know you have their backs.

princefan-1.bsky.social•133 days ago

I have Monday off n I sure as hell won’t be watching it

andyknudsen64.bsky.social•133 days ago

Yeah, I couldn't bear to watch it either. I can't stand the sight if his face and, believe it or not, I get a wave of nausea when I hear his voice nowadays. Weird.

hoolie97060.bsky.social•133 days ago

Right there with ya!! 👊🏼

sierranicole1426.bsky.social•133 days ago

With luck for Dem leaders he will not make it. He is still a Dem. Republicans used him to get votes. He is no longer needed. Watch what happens

bcool84.bsky.social•133 days ago

Good plan. I was just thinking about what I want to distract myself with that week. Maybe a roadtrip to the coast.

bluerose55.bsky.social•132 days ago

Not working on Jan 20. Already took the day off.

odonato77.bsky.social•133 days ago

Kind of a great idea!

beavbee.bsky.social•133 days ago

Make it to be low raaattttiiinnnnngggssss

dbrat.bsky.social•133 days ago

I didn’t watch last time and I certainly won’t watch this time. As far as I’m concerned, it’s a fucking abomination. I will continue a news blackout since 11/5/24. I’m having fun, cooking, knitting, being outside with the puppy.

tresicharming.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’m looking into the same thing.

motorcitygal66.bsky.social•133 days ago

Oh I didn't watch the last one. I just saw clips. The one of George Bush saying that was some weird shit. 😅

treenlund.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’m plotting a trip to the beach overnight 1/19 and hoping my BFF will go with me. Not tuning in.

aardman.bsky.social•133 days ago

I wont watch it - I won’t EVER look a him or listen to him and when he dies I’m going to celebrate.

jastuart68.bsky.social•132 days ago

No fucking way will I be watching. I will be doing anything else. I would rather spend the time reading the terms and conditions of every app I've ever downloaded.

blueeyedgranny.bsky.social•133 days ago

My friend and I are doing the same.

vonnie.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’m not watching. Screw him and all of them 😠

tim-dunn-defunct.bsky.social•133 days ago

Let me guess: someplace out of the country? (OpSec sez don't say where.)

aquashna.bsky.social•133 days ago

Didn't watch in 2017, and I won't watch in 2025.

aryastarksmom.bsky.social•133 days ago

We’ve got a West Wing marathon planned for those particular days and the ones that follow… Same thing we did last time he invaded the Oval Office.

cinnyton.bsky.social•133 days ago

Wonderful idea, we have the box set

dkst0426.bsky.social•133 days ago

We had booked a house in DC through Tuesday. Obviously not going now - kids still wanted to go somewhere, so we're NYC-bound! 🗽

prouddem4ever.bsky.social•132 days ago

Didn’t watch the first. Won’t watch the second. Actually not watching any MSM since the election.

celia11.bsky.social•132 days ago

I went to a car show that horrid day, before. Old dude told me to get the Hybrid SUV “Before the tariffs start.” I took him for a trumpster, but No, he was most definitely not! So glad I listened to him- he knew.

culturelover.bsky.social•132 days ago

I just bought a new washer, dryer and fridge to beat the tariffs. I’ve read that companies are already raising prices to offset the coming impact.

celia11.bsky.social•132 days ago

Autozone already.

scooterdawg.bsky.social•133 days ago

Hopefully it snows like shit to further decrease crowd size. And I hate snow.

thebeachesfan.bsky.social•133 days ago

You’re talking about a 2 day trip what are you going to miss

ftp13.bsky.social•133 days ago

Hopefully his obit.

wtfgop.bsky.social•133 days ago

That bullshit inauguration. We’re turning off social media. And going to enjoy some peace

thebeachesfan.bsky.social•133 days ago

Ok you do you just don’t leave me hanging

madisonfly.bsky.social•133 days ago

Hoping 74mil+ will do the same….we don’t want to give him “crowd size” to lie about (bc half w/be there protesting against him). He craves the attention. Also no desire to see/hear the washed up talent…

arabellaspireship.bsky.social•132 days ago

marysez.bsky.social•132 days ago

That is my partner's b-day & we will be doing fun b-day things & we will not be watching any of that BS!

mothergeese.bsky.social•133 days ago

Good for you. My tv will be off that’s the best I can do. Have fun on your trip.

serenediane.bsky.social•133 days ago

Good plan. They call this a peaceful transition. When your heart is broken and your soul is questioning how the hell we got here - nope, nothing peaceful about this transition. I also will avoid watching the "transfer of power" and focus on healing the power from within.

jhfhockey.bsky.social•133 days ago

My mom and I are taking a mini-vacation to Canada just in case. I'd rather be out of the country when he declares a national emergency and begins the purge.

rosegardener.bsky.social•133 days ago

didn’t watch it the last time certainly not watching it this time. Good idea to GTFOH. Like camping in a tent deep deep in the Santa Lucia’s

dillonlc.bsky.social•133 days ago

I don’t have cable, so I’m just going to play games or watch Netflix. Not going to watch it that’s for sure. He will have no respect from me that’s for sure.

tme23.bsky.social•133 days ago

I am not going to watch the fucking felon. Lucky for me, I have to work and they do not allow political caca in the office. Plus, it is my younger brothers (twins) birthday.

vividpurple71.bsky.social•133 days ago

Never!

earthdweller65.bsky.social•133 days ago

I won't be watching either!

cle-ml.bsky.social•133 days ago

I know. The thought of that puke getting sworn in on a Bible is disgusting. I wouldn’t put it past him to switch out for a printout stack of sycophantic tweets.

ladyjustice28.bsky.social•133 days ago

Right. The. Fuck. On!!!!💯💪🏼 Enjoy your time away... This dumpster fire will still be here when you return (so maybe delay it 4 years or so).

vspouse.bsky.social•133 days ago

we will not be watching that bum either. I don't want to see his face; when his stupid af commercials come on, I turn the channel; I don't listen to his sh*tty voice; and basically I don't have any use for that smelly,
decrepit pos.

*end of rant*

bonbonk5.bsky.social•133 days ago

Agree

jackiegardens.bsky.social•133 days ago

Good timing

mrsholden2019.bsky.social•133 days ago

Great idea! I'm definitely glad we have that day off of school. I'll be celebrating MLK Jr day instead. ❤️

jodiewithane.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’ll be touring Thailand. No time for that crap.

maggie88.bsky.social•132 days ago

Please folks make his crowd the smallest ever

bj25.bsky.social•133 days ago

Inauguration Blackout❗️

davewithturbos.bsky.social•133 days ago

Sounds smart tbh.

synn99.bsky.social•132 days ago

💯

alaskarights.bsky.social•133 days ago

I will honor Martin Luther King Jr Day by boycotting the inauguration coverage, walking in Anchorage snow, taking deep breaths, & preparing for being a resister. and we r not alone; we will stand together.

joelwoodruff.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’ll be going to DC to peacefully
be an asshole that day

justskeets.bsky.social•132 days ago

💯💯👍

rollbarann.bsky.social•133 days ago

Good plan- For years, on an acutely tragic anniversary, I sat around feeling like shit & decided “fuck it I’m going to do something I like!” planned a trip & now that trip is a family tradition we’ve done for 7 years that everyone looks forward to. #LemonsLemonade

mjdavis1988.bsky.social•133 days ago

Great idea. Think we'll do the same.

darlingebony.bsky.social•133 days ago

I didn't watch his first inauguration.

everyvotecounts24.bsky.social•133 days ago

I hope you have a good trip. Sounds nice. But before then… I hope you’ll make sure your ballot was counted and also request an audit in your area if irregularities with your vote or the election occurred. Let’s see what happens when we verify the vote to the fullest extent possible. 🗽🇺🇸 ❤️

amyallen.bsky.social•133 days ago

Get this! That’s my fucking birthday!! I thought I was going to get to see the First Woman President inaugurated on my 46th birthday. I literally do not know how I am going to survive that day.

treenlund.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’m so sorry!

amyallen.bsky.social•131 days ago

Thank you! I will need lots of emotional support that day 😭😢

krazy-kat.bsky.social•133 days ago

I'm not ever watching that orange fuck face on TV the important news will filter out

sunnymarrs.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’m leaving Oklahoma for the Catskills with some like minded friends to process, write, and not discuss TFG

grumpybumpy123.bsky.social•133 days ago

Leaving Oklahoma? Why return ?

sunnymarrs.bsky.social•133 days ago

🤣🤣.. I hear you.. I’ve been looking at other places.. it’s too bad

grumpybumpy123.bsky.social•133 days ago

Catskills are nice .

sunnymarrs.bsky.social•133 days ago

If you like funny people google my friend Alex Auder.. I can’t think of a better guru to lead us into the void that weekend

sunnymarrs.bsky.social•133 days ago

Yes! I’m doing the same thing..

karenlv1350.bsky.social•133 days ago

bethgharris.bsky.social•133 days ago

Excellent plan. I’m not acknowledging any of that bullshit.

underthematrix.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’m with you. I can’t stand the sight of him. I’m focused on my local community and how I can use this platform to help in other ways.

zemuron.bsky.social•133 days ago

I love the fact Jan 20 th is also MLK day ..🤣

tim-dunn-defunct.bsky.social•133 days ago

But not in 2026 or afterwards.

kapsmom.bsky.social•133 days ago

It makes me feel kind of sick, that 🍊 thing being inaugurated on a day to honor Dr King.

treenlund.bsky.social•133 days ago

Same. I was thrilled when I realized Kamala might be inaugurated on MLK Day.

upalag.bsky.social•132 days ago

She still should be!

alwaysinabook.bsky.social•132 days ago

She won!

panicmode2.bsky.social•132 days ago

I'm getting my last vaccination on January 19th and also will be up to date on all of my CMS and HEDIS quality metrics before that. That is if CMS continues to exist...

madgreek2024.bsky.social•133 days ago

Why watch it at all? I am more curious about Jan 6 2025

cololisa.bsky.social•133 days ago

I will be celebrating the late, great Dr. Martin Luther King on Jan 20th. No time or energy for the Annoying Orange.

carolekilgore.bsky.social•132 days ago

We're going to Canada for a few days.

dadabygrace.bsky.social•132 days ago

Same! I'm going to mexico city for my birthday which happens to be the 21st. Alone if need be

melissa0numbers.bsky.social•133 days ago

Last time this happened my son lived in DC. He and his friends booked a trip to Puerto Rico for 5 days. I have never watched his inauguration from then and I won’t be watching the next one.

oclh.bsky.social•133 days ago

I'll be visiting my mom at skilled nursing that day. I'll be watching either Hallmark movies or Magnolia Network so I will happily miss the damn thing. I'll be binging something all day and wearing black.

kcl65.bsky.social•133 days ago

We already planned a day away from the house and tv as well. Nope, not watching either!

wayneinseoul.bsky.social•132 days ago

You may have invented the anti-holiday. Refusing to commemorate a day that doesn't happen.

dianamurray231.bsky.social•133 days ago

Great idea!!!

mhwfg.bsky.social•133 days ago

I hope you can get out before that apparently everyone might be recalled you have to have his permission to leave.

chenoite.bsky.social•133 days ago

I have no intention of watching.

mayladyagh.bsky.social•133 days ago

That's a good idea

dita1960.bsky.social•133 days ago

Last time he was in office my brother died September of 2016 I didn't give a rat's ass about anything and then right before the inauguration my dog died never was on any kind of TV and we will continue that tradition this time

missourimule1953.bsky.social•133 days ago

Enjoy the time off

kcubd.bsky.social•133 days ago

2024 ⏩ 2028

austexdav.bsky.social•133 days ago

Agreed! I am out of the country that week for work, which feels like a blessing.

kapsmom.bsky.social•133 days ago

I can’t afford a trip so I think I’ll just have a stack of books, a pot of tea, and chocolate by my side, and immerse myself in self care.

idushka.bsky.social•133 days ago

My dream is Joe an Jill and democratic elected officials don’t show up.

ldea.bsky.social•133 days ago

I was so pissed at that pic of Biden smiling like that while shaking hands with the orange POS. In 2016 the Obamas were civil, but you could see they didn’t want to be. Biden could at least read the room, respect us. All of a sudden I really don’t like Biden

moemaltese.bsky.social•132 days ago

Who else here wants Biden to boycott Trump’s inauguration and for all flags to be lowered to half mast?

alanhowe.bsky.social•133 days ago

We can stop this if everyone would read the plan and share it enough to make Biden do the right thing. If we lose our Democracy to Trump it will be because we surrendered instead of fighting back.

Fight back.

elizagatfield.bsky.social•133 days ago

By Refocusing our attention away from Trump and his circus we are actively denying him the full power ( and ratings) he craves. Let's not feed the beast if we can help it...

mariodt.bsky.social•133 days ago

I'm planning a day of old movies. Almost all that are in black and white,none that are political.

fiercemom.bsky.social•133 days ago

There is no way I will watch 🤮

amynm69.bsky.social•133 days ago

It just sucks it falls on MLK Day. 😭😭😭

alwaysinabook.bsky.social•132 days ago

Definitely not tuning in, I’m pretending it’s not happening.

jbatnc.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’ll be hiking in Tasmania on certification day and hiking in S New Zealand on Jan20.

maureenbrotherton.bsky.social•133 days ago

I was gonna take the day off. Now I’ll work. I got rid of cable tv, just have Netflix etc. Really glad I didn’t book the trip to go to DC. Wonder how many people canceled rooms etc?

arsey00.bsky.social•133 days ago

I’m actually also going to be travelling. It wasn’t intentional, but now you mention it I’m glad for it.

teelbee.bsky.social•133 days ago

Before you go, think about attending…

Inauguration & MLK Day celebration fall on the same day. I’m celebrating MLK

luannebaar.bsky.social•133 days ago

I am considering this also.

sunshineforalways.bsky.social•132 days ago

I propose we wear mourning black on January 20, no watching the news, treat the day like the funeral it is.

grumpybumpy123.bsky.social•133 days ago

Make sure it’s a trip to a Democrat place . We are thinking Madison Wisconsin for a couple days .

cutbush.bsky.social•132 days ago

Go to Quebec City. You won't even think about it.

rosebanditquinn.bsky.social•133 days ago

I do want someone to film John Roberts’ face when he gives the oath of office, since he will likely be complicit in a crime against the constitution. Will he be ashamed, knowing that the Rapist will neither uphold the constitution nor follow the law ?

springer294.bsky.social•133 days ago

He has no shame. They are all complicit

rosebanditquinn.bsky.social•133 days ago

True that. Anyone who thinks the president is above the law absolutely defies common sense. There shouldn’t have been ANY question about immunity. No one should be above the law.

paulatrif.bsky.social•133 days ago

I will NOT be watching. Boycott the inauguration!!
