how's everyone enjoying the last night of free america

I don't know what to do tomorrow, either. Or the day after that or ANY of the days after that. We'll have to make it up as we go along. If it's any comfort, that seems to be Trump's plan, too.

I know there are protest marches planned for the 20th and ESPECIALLY for Saturday. And that's a great idea. I'm glad to see they're happening in "red" states as well as in D.C., Los Angeles and NYC.

But I was thinking...

Another thing you could do tomorrow, and Saturday? But ESPECIALLY tomorrow?

Leave your TV tuned to a channel like Turner Classic Movies or National Geographic or any channel that will have zero inaugural coverage. Then turn off your phone. Then shut down your computer.

And then -- IF you can afford it -- go find a struggling theater company and pay to see whatever play they're putting on. Or a struggling art gallery or music club or museum. Leave 'em money and see what they're about. Go see an indie film that's got stellar reviews and no audience. Or a new restaurant or other small business that needs friends and customers. Download a new band. Go to an independent bookstore and buy something from a small press. Go to an open mike. Or see any comedian. Tip your barista or barkeep a little extra.

In other words, do all of the cultural and aesthetic things that Trump thinks are worthless. Make a whole big chunk of existence suddenly spike in importance. And then keep doing that, if you can.

And if you DON'T have any money? Go knock on your neighbor's door and see if they need anything. If you have a friend who's Muslim, or gay, or any one of dozens of people that Trump has sneered at or hinted darkly about, go say hi and just ask if they're okay. Tell 'em you've got their back. That they can come over any time, knock on the door, even if they just need someone to yell "gently caress" with.

This is going to be loooooooooooong, tense four years. We elect leaders to take worry and tension OFF of our plates. We have enough of that as it is. But for some reason, we decided to put someone in charge where the everyday weight of keeping the world from cracking apart is COMPLETELY on our shoulders, along with everything else we already have to deal with.

So if we're really going to fight back, and resist, the first thing we have to do -- and it's only a little thing, really, but it's gotta be everyday -- is an ongoing, gentle blowing on the tiny spark of sanity that's still left, to keep it glowing.

We've got a President who bellows cold ignorance from dawn to dusk, and he could give a poo poo if he kills that spark.

So keep it lit. And keep things light. And huddle up.

This is gonna be bad. So be good.

Which did you get? I got the 30 mile Mohu Leaf and have been pleasantly surprised with the quality and amount of channels I get but I was expecting a bit more. I wish I would have ponied up the extra money for the 30 more miles.

That said, between that, Amazon Fire TV with Kodi/Exodus, Netflix and the internet streams for literally everything...I don't regret not having that crazy TV bill every month.

I misspoke, I got the 50 mile one. I live downtown in one of the biggest cities in the country and even with the 50 mile version if I don't have the antenna upright I'll lose channels.

I can sleep almost any time, anywhere. It's cool, but it makes waking up not the easiest thing. Getting older is making that less of a problem though.

For some reason I pass out as soon as I get on an airplane. I'm only awake for takeoff about half the time.

Yeah something about the recirculating air and the full body pressure exerted as the plane is taking off knocks me out quick

But I'm a broad tall dude who takes the aisle seats and the drink cart tags my shoulder every time so it's short lived
