[jayschool2013]

I'll start:

Instead of watching a deranged lunatic deliver a string of lies, I watched on Nugs.net a replay of Billy Strings' fall tour finale from Austin, Texas.

Now you go.

[orangecrush]

1. I went on the air

On ham radio bet with other hand and had fun.

[thomski64]

2. I turned off the TV altogether..

..and did a crossword puzzle, where words still have meanings...

[Mr.Bee]

46. I turned off the TV

Then I turned it on to see if he was done. Nope. Still going.
So I simply turned it to Democracy NOW!

[B.See]

67. watched grass grow.

[mwmisses4289]

3. I watched Kpop Demon Hunters.

I had forgotten it was supposed to give a speech last night, and quite frankly, really didn't care.

[Trueblue1968]

64. I watched repeats of Grimm. It plays on Comet tv

[Paladin]

4. Watched a repeat of an old "Law and Order" episode.

Glad I did so.

[berniesandersmittens]

5. played Zelda

Breath of the Wild

[Emile]

6. I watched a recorded movie, Elf.

[YepYep]

7. Blue Christmas

I attended our church’s Blue Christmas. A moment of reflection and peace for those who are lonely or troubled during the holiday season. Oh, and there was soup too.

[SheltieLover]

8. Read about Jack Smith's Congressional testimony yesterday

[Danmel]

9. Had physical therapy then met friends for Margaritas

And fajitas.

[boonecreek]

10. Watched 2 meh movies.

Olympus Has Fallen and London Has Fallen. At least they have Morgan Freeman in them.

[NewHendoLib]

11. Watched "The Fall"

[EYESORE 9001]

12. Installed a new clothes dryer & then took a nap

Infinitely more productive and therapeutic than watching that bloated sack of protoplasm.

[OldBaldy1701E]

13. Pulled my own hairs out one at a time with a pair of needle nosed pliers.

It was less painful than trying to watch that hooting gibbon.

[peggysue2]

14. Instead of watching a deranged lunatic . . .

I switched on Netflix and continued watching the Q Dept series. Despite the gruesome nature of the show (murder, mayhem, vengeance kidnapping), anything is better than watching Agent Orange lie to the American public and humiliate the country for the umpteenth time.

Btw, a movie to calm the heart and soul is Train Dreams with Joel Edgerton. It's a beautiful film with superb performances. Highly recommended for the crazy times we are a-living. Available on Netflix,

[jayschool2013]

15. On the top of the "to-watch" list

Thanks for the rec!

[peggysue2]

21. Once you watch, let me know what you think

I was blown away and wondered how I'd missed the film. The narrative is based on a Denis Johnson novella which I don't recall reading but plan on downloading to my Kindle.

Enjoy.

[Attilatheblond]

47. Absolutley LOVED Q series!

The characters are wonderfully interesting and quirky.

[peggysue2]

54. Yeah, I'm enjoying it.

The characterization is a definite strong point. I like the balance of Detective Morck's instability with his clear-eyed and very decent assistant, Akram. I'm only two episodes in but there's definitely lots swirling around in the background. Acting is very good and the story thus far has kept my interest. I'm one of these movie streamers who quits early on if the story or characters fail to grab me. Life is too short.

So far, so good.

[Attilatheblond]

63. Only 2 episodes in? Buckle up, cuz things get even better and characters develop in interesiting ways.

Now I wanna watch it all again. Such a good series!

[lark]

16. I walked around while smoking a bowl and surveyed our plants to see how they will holding up with the chill.

Hubs insisted on listening, thinking krasnov would break some news - nope! Just lies, lies, lies, lies, etc. is what I heard during the 1 minute I watched before walking out. Hubs even tuned out, despite his desire to watch, it was just so unwatchable and every word was a self serving lie.

[The Wizard]

17. Watched a hockey game.

[madinmaryland]

18. Watched Miss Scarlett on Masterpiece Theatre.

[StarryNite]

19. My daughter came over and we went for a walk.

[Hugin]

24. Winner!

Awww…

[durablend]

20. Watched dust collect on the shelf

[Hugin]

22. Longed for gum surgery or colonoscopy prep.

Something comparatively fun or less invasive.

[justaprogressive]

23. Cleaned the kitchen!

[Ping Tung]

25. We had a 12 hour electric outage. But neither of us like to endure a rambling self advertisement by anyone.

We both listened to our books on Amazon Audible.

[Mossfern]

26. watched some episodes of season 5

of Arrested Development.

[PikaBlue]

27. Cleaned the drains in my bathtubs and showers.

A task infinitely more edifying.

[Blue Full Moon]

[yardwork]

52. How was it? I'm planning to watch it.

[MustLoveBeagles]

32. Watched Ghost Adventures

[Sneederbunk]

33. I washed my socks.

[Aristus]

34. ...watched Rob Reiner's timeless classic, "The Princess Bride".

A devastatingly funny film, but I found myself crying at a few points in the movie. Some of them, because of the magic of a film you know inside and out, and love to quote; and some out of sorrow for the murdered director.

[redstatebluegirl]

35. Watched Bulwinkle cartoons.

[Rebl2]

36. Forgot

it was on. Did watch something I recorded earlier in the week.

[Hey Joe]

37. We went on Netflix

And watched the last episode of an Italian murder mystery.
It kinda sucked but was far better than listening
(and looking at) that narcissistic sadist ranting and lying his kankles off.
Fuck that lunatic with a ball of rusty fishhooks.

[MiHale]

38. Didn't even give it a thought...til this morning....

Watched too many disaster stories, could figger out the plot without a second thought.

[Endlessmike56]

39. Watched Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol on YouTube

[Cheezoholic]

40. I dosed some Golden Teacher and watched Nugs.net replay of Billy Strings' fall tour finale from Austin, Texas ;) n/t

[jayschool2013]

61. Now that's a great combo! n/t

[EuterpeThelo]

41. Put up the Christmas/Yule tree

with my daughter and cats.

We like to do it late in the month so it will still be around for NYE (because we don't go out on amateur night).

[MissouriDem47]

42. After a full afternoon of Christmas Shopping

I went to sleep on the couch while my wife dozed in her recliner.

[littlemissmartypants]

43. I created and replied in a post quite similar to this one.

https://democraticunderground.com/100220874382

N

[Coventina]

45. Was watching Percy Jackson and the Olympians

[Attilatheblond]

48. Skritched dog bellies and rumps

Infinately better than listening to deranged idiot who has finally noticed the nation hates his guts and thinks he can win people back with more lies and deeper shit shoveling.

[cate94]

49. I watched my favorite Christmas movie

It’s a Wonderful Life,

[twodogsbarking]

50. Got boxes ready for recycling.

Save the planet. Vote Dem.

[PhilG]

51. BritBox !

Watched an old episode of "Death In Paradise" on BritBox. The wife did it. Just remember, it's never the evil SOB you see/meet at the start of the show but somebody else

[milestogo]

53. I watched a "horror" movie about a camper who was killed by a black bear.

Not as scary as watching the crazed lunatic.

[Niagara]

65. Do you remember the name of this movie, milestogo?

I'm interested in watching it.

[milestogo]

66. Its called Backcountry.

I think I saw it on AMC. Its filmed in Ontario, Canada and loosely based on a true story of an event that happened there. I've always been told that black bears don't attack people, but I guess that is not always the case.

I don't know why its called a horror movie when an animal behaves according to its nature.

[Niagara]

68. Thank you for the name of the movie

I'll watch any movie at least once.

There's a magazine called The Week, it's published each week.

There's an article for this week called "When The Bears Come Back" (December 19th, 2025) issue about a woman being attacked by a black bear.

I found the same article on Longreads.com if you wanted to read it. It's a little graphic but I believe an important read.

[Enter stage left]

69. After scrubbing the toilet for the third time, I shampooed my bald head 5 times...

Then ate the garbage I'd been accumulating for the last 6 months.

What did you do?

[Deep State Witch]

71. Washed my Ass

Well, I took a shower. Washing my nether regions was part of that.
