Flies prefer garbage.  He probably hitched a ride with Trump to Florida today.

To his credit, Pence at the inauguration. He has been enough of a statesman the last few weeks that I might consider peeing on him if he were on fire. Maybe. 

I still think he deserves flies.

I’m not crying; you’re crying. Oh, hell, we’re probably all crying.

No, of course I'm not. I'm cho- You know what, fuck it, I'm crying.

Okay, Lady Gaga's outfit is ... something.

He deserves flies to be sure.  I still wouldn't pee on him if he were on fire, but because of his behavior during some of the last two weeks I wouldn't actively try to stop someone from peeing on him.  

So there's that.

But I love the colors, and the peace dove. She sounds good.

Not wild about the outfit, too attention seeking when I want to focus on Biden and Harris, but she sounded good.

And I like her hair.

I think that's the more likely scenario TBH. I will never ever forgive him for the last four years, or pray away the gay bullshit. I would at least consider it though, so that's an improvement over two weeks ago.

She does sound good.

Honestly, for her, that was sedate. Her outfit choices are ... not always the most appropriate.

I’ve just discovered that I had never heard the US national anthem sung before. I know the tune but that was the first time I have heard the words.

I don't think Lady Gaga can NOT be attention seeking. At least the meat dress stayed in the closet.

[danvillebelle]

I adore Gaga.  I think she looks amazing.  I'm a puddle of tears. ❤️

The ASL just sent me over the edge. ?  ?

Yay, Sonia Sotomayor swearing in Kamala.

Eh, it’s Lady Gaga. It’s not like she was going to come out in a twin set and pearls.

I agree - I thought it was the height of decorum for her and orders of magnitude more appropriate than I had expected.  

Can't wait to hear her later - I'm watching with closed captioning.

I've had crying on my schedule for this morning for a long time now, I just didn't know what kind of crying it would be. When I think how hopeless things were looking on election day (and several times since), I can't even believe we're here now.

Kamala looks gloriously happy.

[Destiny]

Madam Vice President. ❤️

[GreyhoundFan]

And Kamala is no longer VP-elect! She's VP and Pence is history!

Hey!  I own both of those things.

J. Lo in suffragette white. Here come the tears again.
