Not ashamed to admit that I shed some tears watching the first woman VP sworn in.
Same. So cool to see her making history like this
.
Absolutely lovely inauguration. The speeches were wonderful, the performances beautiful and moving. I know we've got a long road ahead in terms of all that needs to be repaired and improved and whatnot. I do not for one minute believe things will be resolved overnight, nice as that would be, nor do I envy Biden and Harris the Herculean task ahead of them.
But I definitely wish them, and the Democrats as a whole, well in their efforts going forward. I hope there will be many significant positive changes coming our way at long last, and that the dark days of Trumpism and all the ugliness that comes with it will soon be nothing but a distant, awful memory, and an important lesson we carry with us going forward, so we never go through this sort of nightmare again.
In the meantime, today, I'm going to celebrate and breathe. I'm going to rejoice in the fact that Trump is at long last GONE, and I will no longer have to give a shit about what he said or did today, and I can feel safe and comfortable going to sleep again at night. It's a strange feeling to adjust to, but I'm definitely enjoying it.
I just hope somewhere, Trump is watching this and weeping uncontrollably.
I hope he and his family are nervously staring at their door, awaiting a potential knock from law enforcement, and worrying about which criminal/civil battles they'll have to deal with first.
