In reply to the discussion: I was not going to go to the No Kings Rally tomorrow.. but have had a change of heart [View all]madamesilverspurs
(16,459 posts)31. Even though I can't go, my signs will be there,
along with my heart. Friends are stopping by this afternoon to pick up the signs.
Sounds like we're the same age, dealing with assorted debilities. I have one of the "rollerators", cracks me up that my walker has brakes; it's gotten me to many events, indoors and outside. Right now it's the side effects of my meds that keep me home and close to plumbing, most frustrating.
That said, I maintain a supply of poster board, foam board, corrugated cardboard, markers, paints and brushes. Over the next three years we will have ample need for protest, as this misadministration has no problem generating objectionables. Just because I'm stuck at home doesn't mean I'm muzzled!
Go for it!

There ya go! If you feel up to an outing, tomorrow is probably a fine day for such a venture.
