Happy America Day, Americans!
You're in a bad place, America. A really, really bad, scary place - and on Saturday when Canada Day rolled around, I struggled to find a compliment I could pay you beyond your fabulous supply of exceptional bloggers. This past weekend, though, my Twitter feed was going like mad all day. It was almost all coming from @stephenathome - Stephen Colbert's personal Twitter account.
There was some kinda' "American Greatness" hashtag, and while it certainly didn't serve to endear me to the horrifying political and social situations in your country, it served as a nice reminder that there remains a lot of beauty south of the 49th parralel.
Good luck. I hope you get through this.
