I was talking to one of my friends and he mentioned staying home on July 4, citing how there are a lot of really ugly things going on in the US.

After thinking about this myself, I’m starting to feel the same way. Instead of being proud of the country, I’m feeling like I’m just another wallet that companies and the government are trying to suck all the money out of.

The cost of living is going up, the housing market is a nightmare, I don’t feel very confident in our government at all, the job market is a nightmare…

I think I’ll be staying home this year too… anyone else?

      See, you can’t even get that right. They just sprayed my lawn!

      Sheesh, dude. It’s like you’re not even trying! Oh, wait… ʕ ͡° ʖ̯ ͡°ʔ

          Oh, god. You’re so boring!!

          LIVE A LITTLE!

          I’d say it won’t hurt, bit I lie. Don’t worry, though; it builds character. 😆

          But seriously, go away now…

              Bruh, you consistently get -15 for every comment and only browse Lemmy, yet complain endlessly about it.

              And I don’t know how you do it, but like with schizophrenia you seem to read replies that aren’t there.
