We know we don't have much time left so we've been spending a lot of time with America for its last birthday. Plenty of hugs, taking pictures. My niece is in film school, and got the camera out and interviewed it about what it was like growing up, just trying to record memories while we have them.

Whoever is the Democratic nominee, I hope that people are aware that there are going to be MAJOR protests at the Dem Convention in Chicago. People are going to be protesting US ongoing support of genocide and much more. I hope this doesn't lead to more social media freaking out.
