I just started bawling reading that. It’s crazy how many pent up emotions I have. I feel like they are just all going to come flooding out in relief this week.

It’s hard to plan my meeting schedule on Weds when everything is TBD, but I get it. Yes but we already know of the ‘firings’ in advance. So at least there won’t be any surprises 😂 But what if we are interested in the military flyover for Trump?

Many years ago, vendors would bring me gifts for the holidays. One smaller vendor brought homemade cookies. My boss was shocked that I was eating one as she wouldn't trust other people's food. I asked how it was different from the treats her mom would send or the restaurants we went to often. I will always appreciate the treats others think to send and the food dropped off after having a baby were my favorite gifts.

Many of you have articulated so well my feelings when shared food comes up on these boards (and elsewhere on social media). I grew up with food insecurity at times, and can’t imagine turning my nose up at food just because it wasn’t prepared in my own kitchen or a restaurant. It doesn’t sit well with me.

MTP just shows a poll that 30% of republicans disapprove of Jill Biden. First, I don’t think most of them could pick her out of a lineup. Second, why? They probably know nothing about her at all other than she is a woman. An educated woman who plans to keep working! Gasp! The horror!

This article I'm reading in today's WaPo just reminded me that Jen Psaki will lead the Inauguration Day press briefing. No yelling about crowd sizes!

I rolled my eyes at Jill Biden’s disapproval from reps. Y’all just hate educated and independent women huh?

I will never turn down food. And it has to actually be bad/spoiled to not get eaten. You dont waste food. Its a privilege to do so. It means you have $ to not need that food.
And the poo poo at unseasoned food or canned vegetables annoys me. I grew up with just salt and pepper, sugar and cinnamon, cocoa powder at the holidays. Eventually italian spice mix and garlic powder, and lawrys seasoning salt about high school. I grew up with mom buying canned veggies when they were in sale like 8/$1 and being thankful.
Now I go to market on the move for lots of produce, the govt farmer boxes (currently unavailable from trump administration)
and salvaged food from restaurants at closing and they are BAD at labeling. Meaning heres a gallon ziplock bag of mystery white sauce from olive gardens kitchen, chicken legs from walmart, hamburger patties and mcgriddlers from mcdonalds. All frozen, but who knows what date.
I share this with 4 neighbors who are struggling and will take anything I offer.
If a neighbor/friend drops off a pie, cake, casserole, its exciting. Free food!
As to the lasagne thing, id buy a frozen lasagne and call it good.

Oh boy. This is a whole mood. I love it. I have suspicions about her and her involvement. I love that she just outed herself as the member offering tours and others are also a little curious about her motives.

I have a *feeling*, nothing to currently back it up, but a *feeling* that there is going to be shit coming out about Boebs involvement. MTGreene is a whackjob but Bobbypins is fucking actively scary.

I love the “what’s your favorite political moment” tiktoks and I saw one where Trump says the economy does better under democrats. I was loling.
Also the tiktoks with the White House Correspondent Dinner and the roasting of Trump is amazing to watch.

Biden is very anti-death penalty and cites his Catholic faith. I'm hoping it goes away while he's in office but I'm willing to bet the moratorium will go back in place quickly. I don't know how ACB can say she's this huge Catholic and rationalize voting to put people to death. I mean, I do know, but it's disgusting. I guess I'm gross too. I am ok with putting some to death. Nary an eye blink about it. 🤷🏻♀️ I am also well aware of the Innocence project and the things that do. I just feel some can and should be put to death. And I'm catholic. I'm also pro it's your business and I don't expect my religion to legislate for anyone. I would be fine with if you have DNA and know it was you and you were a serial killer or child killer etc. You can go. I don't feel we should be housing feeding clothing and giving you medical. I don't think the Night Stalker should have died of cancer 20 years later. I think Derrick Todd Lee should have been put to death but instead died of a heart attack. 🤷🏻♀️ I give zero cares if a persons religion dictates their feels on these topics. It’s when it comes into legislation that it’s an issue. The hypocrisy between abortion laws and the death penalty was my main point there. And unfortunately death row and executions don’t always have that 100% “they did it”.

So we are going to the mountains tomorrow. We rented a cabin through air bnb and it’s our first time away from home since June. We desperately need this break. I’m going to do my best to unplug and enjoy nature.
But best believe I’m going to have inauguration coverage on whenever we’re inside. I’m just gonna immerse myself in a winter wonderland where Biden is president. Cannot. Wait.
