I haven’t felt patriotic since the 90s. Every 4th feels like I’m surrounded by deluded people.

Day off? Lol

Quitting is too much work.

Just stop working and see how long it takes for them to fire you.

Yeah, patriotism always felt fucking weird as a kid growing up in the 90s.

I've been pretty ashamed of my country for a long time.

I haven't worked for twenty years now I just show up and walk around with a clipboard and my phone out.

I'm proud and ashamed
Every Fourth of July
You got to know the truth
Before you say that you got pride

I work a 4/3, my normal weekends are long weekends. Stat holiday Mondays make for an extra long weekend. Canada Day was a Tuesday this year so I took Monday off and got a 5 day weekend in exchange for 1 vacation day.

9/11 ruined it for me, specifically the “proud to be an American”, flag on cars garbage—while we passed the Patriot act and started more wars.

Call it what it is: nationalism. I've been weirded out by it since I stopped saying the pledge of allegiance in elementary school.

Fun fact: the pledge was created as part of a campaign to sell more flags to schools.

Nothing to celebrate. Once you wake up to the reality of the world, nothing to celebrate.
