short Twitter video of Doug Jones taking oath of office, with Biden next to him.

Pence is administrating the oath, I love it when he comes to "take this oath of office and without any purpose of of evasion:" part.

Same oath Trump took.

I want the kind of winter that Game of Thrones has.

Binging on re-run of GOT.
In this scene Jon snow is taking his first "elevator" ride up the Wall. The permanently frozen wall.
Got to be as cold there as it is in the north here, IRL.

So why no hat, gloves, on any of the men at the Wall? Ever! yet.

Thing like that could almost ruin the series. Sigh.

Is there a special food you eat on New Year's day?

Another thread reminded me...my very southern neighbor always brings over a dish of black-eyed peas, for luck, she says, on Jan.1

Any tradition where you are?.
