Some folks to remember instead of celebrating

On 2026-07-02

Other countries used to like us.

I don’t intend on celebrating the fourth of July this year. I was six years old during America’s Bicentennial. I don’t remember much of it and I was really looking forward to the 250th. I feel cheated because Americans have become so stupid they happily elect con men to all facets of government and gleefully clap as they watch these con men plunder America’s wealth reputation. We don’t have a functioning government. We have pedophiles and pedophile protectors enriching themselves as Americans are forgotten and drown in preventable issues.

A honey bee approaches a flower as it searches for nectar in the flowerbed outside Riverside Discovery Center.

“When are we leaving?” Paul said.

“For what?” I said.

“I’m so tired of this clown show,” he said.

I still don’t know if I’ll be able to vote again

They always come at you sideways. The 19th amendment to the U.S. Constitution gave women the right to vote. Republicans have been pushing since early 2025 to get the SAVE Act passed. It would disenfranchise millions of people, but I want to focus on women in particular.

Trigger warning: The video above is a bit much to take.

I’d encourage you to watch the four-minute video on YouTube. Johnny Bananas does some good work and deserves the click on this one.

@aidanetcetera It was a shitpost. Check out Know Your Meme for more of the history on it, or john ganz, or my newsletter #kirk #owo ♬ original sound – Aidan Walker

I’m not going to wade into the political realm anymore, but, over the past few days, it’s become pretty clear a lot of people don’t understand the memes used by the alleged killer of Charlie Kirk. I post these two videos only for understanding of what they mean in case you are struggling to wrap your head around them. Aidan Walker does a good job of clearing things up in his two videos in a clear and concise manner.

Oh, hey, look at that alliteration I accidentally did with my title. Anyway…

I had lunch yesterday and the day before with two really good friends whose opinions I value and respect. For the last year, I’ve been toying with the idea of two different blog posts, but have been hesitant to write them. Ultimately, this is my blog and I can write what I want, but I also want to be respectful of other people and not come off as an angry bitch.

Random things in my head

Little yellow bastard outside my front door.

There are days I have thoughts in my head I want to write about, but can’t flesh them out into anything more meaningful than a sentence or two. Sometimes it’s because of the PTSD. Sometimes I can’t find the right words to express myself. Sometimes someone else said it better. Sometimes there isn’t anything more to say.
