It's so nice to look at DU in the morning and not have to wonder,

[raccoon]

„WTF has he done now?“

Happy holidays to everyone!!

1. I remember when he first got to the White House

It took me about 2 weeks to go from "Did he say/do/tweet something stupid while I was asleep?" to "What stupid thing did he say/do/tweet while I was asleep?"

What can I say? A whole 2 weeks is what it took me. Should have taken about 3 days.

11. I was already stressed out and on edge

Because I was battling cancer.

I didn't get much sleep. Oncologist saw that I was stressed out, and asked if I would consider Paxil for my "off the charts" anxiety, or at least Ambien to get me to sleep better. I hate Ambien, and don't trust Paxil. So I toughed it out.

Took me until my radiation therapy was done and all cancer declared in remission to start sleeping like a human again. That was sometime in mid-2017.

I joked to my oncologist that it wasn't the relief of the cancer being done that had me sleep better, but sheer exhaustion forcing me to do it.

I had also adopted the philosophy that whatever the slimy scumbag might do was out of my hands. It's all on that...thing, you can't change it, so get some rest, at long last.

2. Excellent point!

Happy Holidays!

3. Yeah, no kidding. The dread I felt prior to the 2020 election was so justified...

and the relief I feel now only increases.

[malaise]

4. He's been busted

Happy Holidays to you and yours

[nightwing1240]

5. That really is a relief

One I think most of us share. Happy Holidays!

[KarenS]

6. Did someone tell him to 'lay low' or am I just not seeing things

anymore? Granted I don't look for what he's been saying,,, but it does seem strangely quiet. Don't get me wrong, it is a huge relief.

9. He's still spouting bs daily, just nobody is paying attention.

faux news is silent and that was how average right wingers got their Lil donnie fix. The world is better off for it.

[Ferryboat]

7. The existential dread in waking up in the morning is lifted

Wondering wtf did he do overnight is gone.

A new day, a brighter future.

Merry Christmas everyone

[SouthernDem4ever]

8. Don't count him out just yet

he's probably busy working on a new set of NFT's - the only thing he hasn't tried is the porn version.

[rubbersole]

10. Not before breakfast!

[Genki Hikari]

12. OMG

Kill me now.

[niyad]

16. I nearly spit out my coffee. Tiny mushroom porn?

[SouthernDem4ever]

19. LOL

[mnhtnbb]

13. I still look every morning

Hoping to see his obituary.

[pandr32]

14. It felt like we were all victims.

There was so much worry about what might happen next. Our security--everything felt threatened every single day.

[Danascot]

15. Between Trump

and the pandemic, a large percentage of us have PTSD.

[pandr32]

20. Agreed

[Martin68]

17. It's nice to look at DU in the morning and not have to wonder if we still have a country.

Or that we still have a government booing by the constitution.

[FoxNewsSucks]

18. I will continue to wonder that,

and what the fascist enablers have done, as long as MF45 remains free.
