Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Timelies all.
I am still in Florida, so no marching for me. Not that I would be marching if I were at home. (For one thing, Mr. S is home this weekend and taking him would not end well. For another thing, I’m a federal employee and I don’t want to risk my job.)
Otherwise I am ok, if sick of deli.
Virtual rallies are just not the same. Which would be one thing if I hadn't waited for weeks.
Planning to drive by our downtown park rally/protest as soon as our housemate comes home with the car. We'll honk in support; one of us is too disabled to march, so household solidarity it is.
Times Square was pretty damn crowded.
The crowd was much bigger here than June. Not, thankfully, Times Square crowded. I'd have lasted much less time.
We had about 100 in Old Forge, which is a tiny Adirondack community, so impressive. Lots of beeping, thumbs up, peace signs, and onlookers cheering. Tourists were almost all supportive, with some blank stares, and a tiny number of thumbs down and obscene gestures. We cheered and waved at them like we assumed they were with us. Considering that the library was too late to have it listed as an official gathering, and it relied solely on word of mouth and some FB posts by locals, it was a success.
eta: it was scheduled 3-4 and that was pretty much when everyone gathered and dispersed.
