    I’m boycotting vacations in the United States and I’m an American. I just got back from a 4-day weekend in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Other countries deserve our vacation dollars more than ours does. Until it stops being led by children making stupid fucking decisions.

    As a joke I asked a cashier at the NSLC where the bourbon was. She laughed. She knew I was fucking with her. For those not in the know, Canada boxed up all their bourbon and sent it back in retaliation to all of Trump’s bullshit with tariffs and what not.
