Champagne? Opening the front and back doors to let the old air out and new air in? Will the new air really be any better?
How will you celebrate?

I plan to book/get a tattoo that reads “I outlived the clown” under a cute clown face. I’m a circus performer so it’ll be a fun talking point

It’s sort of like a cancer patient having a tumor removed. There’s still a long road ahead to recovery, and plenty of opportunities for new tumors to replace it.
So I’m going to breathe a sigh of relief, take a few moments to enjoy the reduced weight of the world, and then prepare for the next steps.

I guess take a long nap to get ready for all you fucking libs to go back to brunch and forget there’s still an empire to fight.

Unrequited love is a hard thing but I imagine unrequited hatred must be worse.

Was that the brunch comment? No biggie. It’s not a super serious discussion- just an internet post on No Stupid Questions. A certain percentage of responses are expected to be negativish. That’s what keeps the web spinning.
If all the magats who posted HE IS RISEN yesterday (for their friends to see) actually went to church, my favorite brunch places would be easier to get into.

You might not be wrong, but you can still choose to be a prick about it, I guess.
Which I guess is good for me to see and remind myself that when I feel the same frustration with people for believing things I think are stupid to believe, raging at them doesn’t help much. Doesn’t relieve my anger and frustration, and certainly doesn’t change any minds.
It sucks, though, because it’s not fair to read all the things idiots write that are achingly stupid, and have to try to keep replies not making oneself look like an asshat. I constantly fail at that.

Yeah you have a point I don’t think I’d come at someone IRL like that over wanting to celebrate Trump’s death. I just…don’t feel any victory in that moment and already hear centrists gearing up for another right wing democrat president taking everyone’s attention.

We’re going to be waiting a while.
When we see him coming out with sunglasses, and perched up between two guys who are suspiciously close to him, only then can we estimate the time down to a couple of hours (depending on how many ads for Goya beans there are).Restaldt@lemmy.world 5 hours ago
Not a thing. I won’t do a single thing differently other than a sigh of relief. Then I’ll get back on with my day.
He wants nothing more than to be remembered. To be the center of attention.
I won’t give them any more power over my life than they have already stolen.

I’ve seen people say they’re going to pull their Christmas lights back out; that would be pretty…

I’ve said for awhile that I refuse to wish for the death of anyone. Just bad Karma there.
BUT, I never said I wouldn’t celebrate the death of a bad person. So I’m ordering a bad person’s recent quote about another person’s death to be printed on a T-shirt I will only wear twice: on the day the bad person dies, and on the day of that person’s funeral.
…
I may wear it subsequent times on the bad person’s birthday.

I don’t have a problem with wishing bad things. My wishes don’t have any power. They won’t change a thing.
I also don’t believe in karma. Too many bad things happen to good people and vice versa.

ClockworkOtter@lemmy.world 5 hours ago
Maybe much the same as when we last had a general election in the UK.
daychilde@lemmy.world 7 hours ago
I won’t celebrate. Not because I’m not pleased, but because the fight is not over, and unfortunately, many who “woke up” to fascism thanks to Trump will happily go right back to sleep and stop voting and stop caring, which helps the fascist Republicans continue to attack our democracy.
Trump is evil, but it’s not like he’s the only evil man in a sea of reason; Republicans are fascists and in many ways (i.e. sans dementia) as bad or worse.
Also, depending on how he dies, his cult will absolutely go bug-fucking bonkers, making him into a martyr, or maybe it’ll spark violence. It is unlikely to end well.

He’s a symptom, not the cause.

He’s arguably doing more damage to the fascist movement than he is supporting it lately. I think they will be the ones celebrating when he is gone, but they will not stop pushing fascism. The infection has metastasized extensively, and once he is gone it will really get to work.
