Taxes filed, hope to get my legal refund. Then, updated W4 filed to withhold *only* the legally required minimum.
Not breaking any laws, just a legal level of resistance in one of the ways that I have to interface with *their* administration. Not my president, not my government.

Refer to IRS Topic 306:

I'd highly recommend checking your personal vaccination records and getting whatever is needed to get current.
Just in case vaccinations get banned for a few years.
My wife and I just reboosted our COVID boosters because it turned out our insurance allowed it.

I'm treating it like lockdown - avoid contact with certain people, keep social contacts up, work on health and projects.
Also doing my stock up shopping - TP, anything imported with tariff impacts, canned fruits and veggies that won't have workers.

I like to read and set the yearly challenge on Goodreads high. Should easily hit 120 books for this year.
And not all are easy reads. 5- 10 pages per day on thick tomes or tech will get you there too.
