There are days my fellow USPS carriers complain about their jobs or working conditions. Who doesn't fuss from time to time? But I never take for granted that absolute peace in which I walk my mail route every day. It is a privilege many do not recognize. Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the post workers!

When you grudgingly share mom's lap with your pesky new sister, but then end up having to put her in a headlock! 😂 Misha is still learning to love (tolerate) Marigold and Marigold needs to learn to be less bitey. 😅🐈‍⬛🐈🖤🧡

When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds. I come into the peace of wild things RIP Wendell Berry

We are projected to spend $268 BILLION on deportations — costing the average American taxpayer about $2,358 (according to @epi.org). But somehow we “can’t afford” to make sure hungry children can eat or ensure everyone, no matter their income, can access healthcare. Priorities.

Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.

There are some beautiful little blooms in the vegetable garden. Lovely to look at now and they will turn into delicious food soon! Ichiban eggplant, bell pepper, cucumber and yellow potatoes 🌿

The thing I love best about the Obama Presidential Center is that it's not just a library that houses documents & artifacts from the Obama administration, but that there is an *actual public library* inside! 📚

We get stand-up talks nearly every month about dogs. "Don't look at the dogs. Don't talk to the dogs. Don't pet the dogs. Don't even think about dogs." But, seriously, there are some really great dogs out there! 🥰🐶

The richest 0.1 percent of the global population are hiding nearly $3 trillion in offshore accounts to evade taxes — more than the wealth held by the entire bottom half of humanity. It would take about $93 billion per year to eradicate extreme hunger by 2030. Taxing the rich is a global necessity.

Let’s be clear: Russia attacks, Russia refuses a ceasefire, Russia chooses to continue its war of aggression every single day. Ukraine has offered an unconditional ceasefire and wants peace. While Ru refuses to stop the war, Ukraine defends itself and retaliates. Ukraine has never attacked anyone.

Management bloat is real. On an average weekday morning our office has a postmaster, station manager, & 3 online supervisors all standing around watching the carriers & clerks do their work. Aside from reading us our "numbers" & pressing for downtime there is not much they are accomplishing.

Gov. Pritzker ordered flags to be flown at half-staff in IL in honor of Rev. Jackson, but I have yet to see one flag in our town in compliance with that directive & some flags that regularly fly are not being flown at all rather than being lowered in respect. 🙄🫤

The Biden admin could have/should have done more, but Ru has massively escalated their attacks since Trump has come to office & just ramp it up more every time there are "peace" talks.

The key for people who choose mail in voting, to be certain their ballot is processed in a timely manner, will be to take it to a post office sales counter & request the clerk to "hand cancel" it. This will put a clear, dated cancellation stamp on the ballot envelope.
