Normally I’d post some kind of post for the 4th of July that’s a little celebratory post, but this year just isn’t the year for that. There’s just so much going on in many fronts that it doesn’t feel right for me to celebrate.
Yet the fireworks are going off in my area. People are partying for the 246th birthday of the United States while I sit here watching old AVGN episodes and snack on some chips before bed.
The theocratic fucks who run this country are stripping away the rights of citizens at an alarming rate, inflation is an absolute bitch, the national housing situation is still crap, mental health care in this nation keeps getting worse, and fucking morons across the country seem to think the President just randomly sets fuel prices — no Cleatus, that’s your oh so precious capitalism making you pay more at the pump. Your de-regulated “free” market that you wank off to regularly, that’s the cause.
Anyway, my point is I’m not feeling as much like saying “yay USA” today as I have been in previous years. Hopefully in 2023 things will be better.
