Nothing makes me feel more American than waiting for Canadian relatives to arrive. And on July 4, too!

My sister sent me photos of her and the kids on the flight, and I almost didn’t recognize them. I haven’t seen them for exactly 18 months. (We talk on the phone constantly, for hours, but we don’t do Zoom meetings.)

By the way, nobody asked the 5-year-old to wear a mask in the airports or on either flight.

The only people I know who won’t be traveling in July are two very heavily pregnant women and their husbands. Everybody else is off to a vacation destination.

It’s only when you hear about everybody’s travel plans that you realize that it is really over. The collective insanity of our times is done and over.

On July 4th, many people ask themselves what made them feel really American. Here’s a great article by Katya Sedgwick on the subject.

The process of withdrawing welfare is going to follow the same path that everything else does in neoliberalism. It won’t be withdrawn by force. No, you will “choose” to give it up yourself.

Look at the part I circled in red. Horrid.

Also, the first point on the list is quite terrifying. These are deeply perverted people who hate language, hate civilization, and really really hate children.
