I love it. 1776 done up in 2026 style. And for seven day. Blows my mind. Make each day about something wonderful that helped define the U.S. The first moon landing (TOM), when equality finally became law, celebrate the music, the science, the sports, the many contributions the US made to the world, both front page and quiet moments like being kind with yourselves and with each other. All this helped build the U.S. brick by brick. Remember Woodstock and keep it chill, keep yourselves safe, no confrontations needed. Just Power to the People. And then let the joy burst through on July 4th as all of you sing a very happy 250th birthday to yourselves. And end it with a finger flip.

In Judaism, 'shiva' (meaning "seven") traditionally lasts for seven days of formalized mourning immediately following the burial of a first-degree relative." I offer this as a devoted reader to note your emphasis on "seven days." But unlike the sadness of our rituals, your days will be spent with courage, audacity, and well, love. Although mostly my adored satire, this essay reveals the muscles behind the merriment. At 87, I'm not primed for travel or muscle-busting demonstrations, but I'm asking you to pack my gratitude. Also tuck in my admiration. And find a place to safely store my prayers for the end of the most vile admininistration in the history of our country. And I should know, witness my lengthy age.

We must do whatever we can to help.

The camaraderie, fun and triumph helps us cope and brings us joy. It’s a wonderful feeling to make a positive difference and knowing that we were on the right side of history.

This article and the Ugly Fuck Worms article have caused me to become a paid subscriber. Thanks for the laughs and the photo of the Ugly Fuck Worm, the image of which is now burned onto my retina.

I believe that some of the correspondence to King George telling him to Go Fuck Himself is missing. I think our founding members would have been more erudite and understanding. I'm pretty sure they would have said: "Go Fuck Yourself King George and use a sheeps intestines as a protective device so as not to infect anyone around you with syphillis"!
