Learning recently I’m much more fond of government agencies than many folks in the US (many serve communities and employ my colleagues!) But I’m especially fond of the USPS. I can send and receive little gifts across the vast country! I chat with the mailperson! Stamps are so cool!

Enjoy Black Friday folks 🖤🖤🖤. ‘Cause next year you alone (not the country we are importing from, not our government) will pay the tariff on the products that are assigned them. Black Friday 2024 brought to you competently by non-fascists, enjoy.

One wonders whether Trump recalls that he might have expired of COVID if he hadn’t gotten blue-ribbon care.

I’m seeing how well my husband is being taken care of by Medicare right now. I hope it is there for me and the Trump train wreck doesn’t slash it.
