I feel the opposite. I would not have approved had Democrats done this when Bush was elected as that was a legitimate win by an actual politician (one I massively disagreed with, but...). Trump is dangerous and he needs to be treated as the illegitimate POTUS that he is. To act as though any of this is normal is not acceptable in my eyes.
I'm with you. This should not be normalized. There's too much at stake and too much that's just WTF levels of shady and wrong.
We're not in a case of politics as usual. We're in a case of motherfuckers, show us some spine and some strength and resist, because there ain't no reasoning with the incoming shitshow.
I think making a statement up front can be important and as the inauguration is mostly optics anyway that's as good a place to do it as any, as long as they show up and do their jobs (unlike the bulk of the republican congress for much of the last 8 years) the rest of the time.

Weather~ma, msbelle.
Ugh, Epic, hope that is easily resolved.
I have never been a watcher of inaugurations, I am not actually certain how much they matter either way - attending or not, I mean. Witnessing the oath of office could certainly be spun as readiness to hold accountable, yes?
Been a busy few days for me and today I don't really want to do anything but stay in my pajamas and watch TV. Which is not entirely ok, none of the stuff I've done has been housecleaning or laundry and there are minimal standards to be ready for the work week that I have not yet met.
Attending the first Obama inauguration was a true celebration for me and mine. It just felt like a global party.
I was working during the Clinton inaugurations, and in mourning during the Bush's.
This time, I'm just tense about what might happen to my neighborhood.
Timelies all!
Got to see Rogue One with Gary.
On the down side, got a call from daycare that Mr.S woke up from his nap with one eye gunked shut. Took him to the pediatrician who determined he had conjunctivitis in that eye =and= an ear infection. Joy.
re: Beep Me. Buggering fuck.
Yeah. It sucks a whole lot.
I was wondering since he hadn't posted what was going on.fuck cancer. fuck 2016.
