I never knew there was a Rosie the Riverter Day! This is quite a litany of celebrations, and well worth recognizing. That said, HAPPY PRIDE 🌈!

You forget the uncountable times every one of us hears the appreciated and mildly annoying "thank you for your service" EVERY time we use a discount. One more pride parade, and there won't be enough time on anyone's calendar to repeat that phrase at the register. How will us vets go on in a world like that?

Amen. This may help explain why our delusional fascist neighbor came over to confront us about our Pride flag. His exact words "do you think it's fair that veterans who got burned in a burn pit only get one day, while 'the gays' get a whole month?".

My husband's reply: "my dad flew planes and dropped bombs on nazis so you could say stupid things like that".
