Well as a Canadian I have no say ( tho my country will certainly be affected). I normally work w an American MD Fri am's but instead am going to a symposium. I don't want to deal.
so folks, what are U doing? Watching the inauguration to bear witness to history? Marching, protesting leaving the country? Working on impeachment?
How will u deal as we all move into the actuality of a Trump presidency?

I'll work -- as I usually do Mon through Fri -- and carry on with my life because no one man has the power to limit that; short of ending my life. My ability to make money, enjoying success, and achieve greatness continues on... regardless of what nonsense and tomfoolery happens down in D.C.

I'm spending it working on some new music that I'm composing. I'm coping through art.
Sidenote - As much as I despise Trump, I do not want him impeached because a Pence presidency could be even worse. Pence is a smarter, more exteme, farther-right version of Trump who will wreak havoc.

Pence is indeed a monster, but I think he's at least stable enough to not use nukes. Small victories.
Anyway, I am working 12 hours on Friday so won't really be able to watch anything- not that I would anyway. After that I'm meeting some friends for drinks and heading to the march on Saturday.
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

I'll be at my cousin's house and I hope she doesn't plan on watching the spectacle of horror. If she does, I'll go into a different room and knit.

I'll be at work, as I would any other Friday.
Regarding a Pence presidency, in many ways we'd be a lot worse off, and I'd fight him every step of the way. However, at least he acts like a grownup and won't start a nuclear war because someone was mean to him.

It's 2017, not 2016.
But I'll be hoping for national unity and that we can come together. I remain hopeful for President Trump and I pray that his presidency will do the nation good!

This is the 1 day I wish I was scheduled to work. On the otherhand, if my 1 coworker wears her Made in America shirt like she did the day after the election, I might be fine missing that.
I have an appointment to get my hair cut. And plan to watch the US figure skating championships. And if I finish my Anna Kendrick bio, I might start reading Fun Home. Oh yeah, and I will also watch the last episode of Girl Meets World.

Responded partly to correct the title down-thread. I'll be researching open source licensing options for an app that I've been working on in my spare time forever. Trump's will be the first presidential inauguration that I've shunned since Carter's.

Michael Moore and Mark Ruffalo are holding a big anti Trump rally in front of the Trump Hotel at Columbus Circle tomorrow at 6PM. Given that I live 2 blocks away I doubt I will be going anywhere unless it is further north. On Friday I am unplugging the TV. The only thing I would be interested in seeing is Obama and his family leaving The White House. I will miss his dignity, grace and humor. God help us for now it will be four years of a reality nightmare,

Prayer?? Not a hope in Hell----all the volitile solvent in the amount of hairspray needed to keep that coiff stiff HAS to affect the brain. Scientists have been looking into the long term use of toxic ingredients in hairspray because of complaints of sore eyes/rashes itchy and orange bloated skin.
We can all pray for a VERY windy day on Friday.

I've taken the day off and will be going off the grid. I do not expect to be a very sociable person tomorrow.

I'll be at school, but if I had a choice I'd watch it just so I could see the Clintons

I'll pretty much be living my normal life on the last day of the holiday break (I work at a university). I do plan to wear my "Donald Trump is only for now" button, acquired at last year's flea market, to the gym.

I'll listen to music, read, take a walk in the park if the weather is nice, and then have afternoon tea.

Going to work, as usual. I'm going to get a massage and a haircut after work, then come home and cook a nice dinner.
Then on Saturday I will be attending my local march.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

I'll be at work, focusing on a project that funds scholarships for students from families below the poverty line.
I won't watch the DC Travesty, but I'll certainly be aware of the ongoing decay of our country's intelligence and sense of ethics.

I'm a newspaper editor, so work as usual. I have a special editorial to post online. Then dinner with the husband, followed by a concert featuring legendary guitarist Pat Metheny and Birdman drummer/composer Antonio Sanchez. On Saturday, when I should be taking the day off, I am going to publish as many pictures that I can on my paper's website from local women attending the March on Washington.

I am going to watch the FRONTLINE Series The Divided States of America, how United States went from Hope and Change to Make America Great Again. I think it will help me understand what happened.
At a time when the CEOs were voting themselves huge bonuses while everyday Americans saw much of their savings lost, Obama did nothing to punish them in that meeting -- even as insiders tell Frontline that the bankers expected some pain and were willing to accept reforms.
"Divided States" not only chronicles that moment, it also places it in the greater context of how it contributed to the populist backlash against Obama's administration that helped propel Trump into the White House.
Frontline has been both deep and daring in its political coverage during these tumultuous times, and "Divided States" continues that pattern
