Umm… Juneteenth is the 19th. Hence the “teenth.” Of course FJB screwed it up and declared the 17th as Juneteenth, a federal holiday. Your post office is extra crispy special if they’re closed today because of a holiday that is 11 days away.
And, yeah, Texas is the birth place of Juneteenth, so…

Well, it used to be a very regional holiday marking the emancipation of slaves in Texas. You see, at one time we didn’t have the internet, nor phones, and the telegraph was iffy. And, the post hadn’t evolved into snail-mail yet. It took the arrival of an actual US army general (one General Gordon Grainger) in Galveston to bring the word that the war were over and the slaves were no longer slaves.
Fun Fact: Slavery existed legally in the North after the Texas slaves were freed.
any excuse to drink today is a good excuse to drink .
Grape drankria
The Clearwater slang would be, grape drank.
We'll see, I'm going to start night fishing or crabbing here very soon, sooo, I will be back up to speed on local slangs soon

Maybe I mis read the sign, but what the hell its good to be proactive. Better early than late unless its for a beating.Your USPS is celebrating a little early.
It’s an extra day off at work each year so at least there’s that
The newest woke holiday!
Cane pole + bucket + bridge. Combine those and it's the rosettastone of ebonics.
Oh I love that shit
“For us, by us”
Oh that’s cool, so it’s made in like Chicago or some other urban utopia eh?
Oh shit!
Maybe the biggest irony is the calendar shows juneteenth and Fathers Day on the same day this year. I am so over with the pandering to every special class of idiots.
So this Juneteenth holiday was celebrated June 6th by the Post Office as stated by the OP? I look on my iPad calendar and it shows Father‘s Day and Juneteenth on 6/19 but my store bought calendar shows June 12th as Father’s Day and Juneteenth….2 Father’s Days will mean firing up the BBQ grill an extra day I guess
I don't see a conflict with juneteenth and father's day being on the same day.
Fathers Day ….the most confusing day in a black man’s/woman’s life
I get June 17th off this year.
Yeeha!
Yeeha!
