@ProPublica
Its not incompetence, they might mess up the grand plan.
Its a basic rule of a crime family; you can do what ever you want as long as it is not messing with the Dons plan. another words, stay in your lane and you will be ok.

remember the grand plan, raid the #SocialSecurity , #medicare and #USPS retirement fund. These cons shall never show up in the media. As long as your cons dont impact these you will be fine.

Race

In my previous post I speculated on which of the two packages I have shipped over the last few days would arrive at its destination first, thus winning the race. Would it be the USPS package full of 35mm film that shipped out on Saturday or would it be the FedEx envelope with my passport renewal application that shipped out last night?

I have the answer.

The film has arrived at The Darkroom. I can expect my scans to be uploaded to my account in 3-7 business days. In other words, an eternity. Disney and New York on film… coming soon.

Hong Kong says fuck you Conald.

“The Government of the United States (US) announced earlier that it would eliminate the duty-free de minimis treatment for postal items despatched from Hong Kong to the US and increase the tariffs for postal items containing goods to the US starting from May 2. The US is unreasonable, bullying and imposing tariffs abusively. Hongkong Post will definitely not collect any so-called tariffs on behalf of the US and will suspend the acceptance of postal items containing goods destined to the US.”

Repeating, this is not legal.

It must be able to function via snail mail.

There is no requirement that forces people to have internet access.

It goes without saying that there was no internet when SSA was created. X was not around then either.

If the US Government wants to provide free internet to everyone, fine. Hell, give everyone a free spyphone.

But, there is no fucking way anyone should have to create an account on X.

This is flat out totally illegal, and insane.

Dear USPS,

What the actual fuck? Why is everything shipped from the US marked as delivered to Glendale Heights? I don't give a flying freep in a rolling donut about how your internal routing works. I just want to know roughly when the package will be at my COMMUNIST EUROPEAN doorstep.

Are you cheating yourself about delivery times by claiming Glendale Heights is where Europe is? Is this a result of a byzantine COBOL system?

I care not. Fix your shit.

Wow.

Ten voting House Republicans have now signed on to a resolution that says Congress "should take all appropriate measures" to make sure USPS remains an independent government agency and "not subject to privatization,” including Reps. Sam Graves and Thomas Kean

I’m stunned Kean signed on to this. He’s a total trump stooge but this is good news.

The pandemic showed the #USPS is critical to this country

#BettyWhite now has her own #ForeverStamp from the #USPS , thanks to Boston-area artist #DaleStephanos .

It took him about a year to design and complete. At the request of Betty's family, he included references to her work championing the cause of #AmimalRights , the most obvious symbol being the pawprint earring.

Stephanos' image of Betty brilliantly captures her sense of mischief and fun, by perfectly portraying her joyful smile and sparkling eyes.

#BettyWhiteStamps are now available for purchase through the U.S. Postal Service.

The goal in privatizing the USPS is to make sending regular mail unaffordable to the point most communication occurs online, not in real life.

While the public recognizes mail is a service to the public that is not supposed to be for profiteering, the cheeto admin doesn't care that the costs of online services to the poor & elderly are far in excess of sending & receiving mail.

They just want to skim off as much as they can from people.
