Tonight, I had a food stocker and a deli worker at the store I shop for Instacart stand behind me and titter away with giggles and cheery banter saying to each other that they were so excited for the new world that will begin on January 20th. They just can't believe all the new and fantastic things that are going to happen. They know my political standing and were doing this only to antagonize me. I acted like I was deaf and did not respond at all. So they got louder with their breathy excitement and I walked away into the dog food section. They were pissed and stopped their hyper and shrill giggling immediately. It dawned on me that they didn't refer to a single thing that they were expecting. Their act was simply for show because... you know... they won!!! Now I do have to say that one of them is a 16 year old junior in high school whose father was just arrested for threatening someone with a gun and the other led a loud protest against the library for PORN in the children's section. She had four old women in her group and made the local TV news which was their goal! Ah yes... such political activists live in my neighborhood right here in good ol' South Carolina!!! I figure the next four years are just going to be a continuous episode of the Jerry springer show!!! Along with an out in the open robbery of our US Treasury!!
Wow. How sad for them. They may be laughing now, but there’s a world of hurt coming for these people. Good for you for refusing the bait. Nobody won, except the grifters getting ready to sell America off for parts. My hope is their ineptitude will somehow save us.
I’m with you, Margo! I refuse to let the Orange Man & his Clown Car steal my holiday happy time. Took me a couple of weeks to understand & accept that my life must go on.
That, my new FUCK ring and wine will get me through this season! Can’t guarantee anything after that. 🥴

Oof. I praise your restraint. I think I would've started chucking dog food cans at their little new world order pates.
