Ready for the Year of Snake? 🐍
This snake year is special as we will have two start of springs (立春)within the same lunar year. With all the craziness ongoing, I simply hope we can have the wisdom to handle things. Springs always bring hope - 💕

When the word "liberation" was used, I almost fell off my chair. I want to see the faces of 46th, 44th, 43rd and 42nd Presidents' during the speech. Where can I find the images, anyone knows?
Donald Trump took office as the 47th president claiming an electoral and divine mandate to immediately invoke emergency powers on immigration and energy, pursue territorial expansion and reverse Joe Biden’s policies on car emissions and trans rights.
Trump declares ‘liberation,’ claims mandate for emergency powers
The new president pictured himself as a transformative figure and previewed an immediate run of policy reversals

Okay. I really hope all the @Tesla drivers plan well for their charging schedule. Not just Tesla but all EV drivers. Let us not make the same mistake as last year. @LESC_Public you can get work from home the next two days... 🔋🔋🔋 For ❄️ 🥶
