Watching Asshole's July 4th party and everyone looks bored.

Watching the flyover and Melania wants to be anywhere else. Crowds beyond the WH are sparse. Looks like another dud.

off the fucking TV and stops rewarding the advertisers, ineffective media and crooked politicians. Rejoin life. Find peace and some joy again.

I've been outside all day in the garden/yard for the most part.

No TV, but if I log in to DU it's because I'm interested in what others have to say about what's going on because I don't watch it myself.

If it bothers you what people on DU are posting about, use the various features to filter out threads.

Or better yet, take your own advice.

The scolding! Oh my goodness.

Used to 'party' at the Mall, with family and thousands of others, and no one was bored.
