Amateur Titanic Historian, Baseball Nerd, and Simpsons quoter. I make money by giving you stuff you don't want every day. The United States Postal Service does not sanction or endorse anything I have to say about anything ever.
There's a type of postal customer who rushes out to the mailbox when they hear you coming so they can clear out weeks worth of mail, and then rush back inside before you arrive, and it feels like the adult equivalent of kids pushing a mess under the rug when they hear mom in the driveway

Trump getting blocked by one court just to appeal to the Supreme Court is like asking one parent's permission to do something, not getting it, and immediately putting on a pair groucho marx glasses and asking yourself in the mirror.

What are people even picturing when they think of the "golden age" of flying? Every Pan Am flight pre-1980 came with like a 30% chance you'd end up with an unscheduled layover in a country with no extradition treaty
As travelers head to the airports this holiday season, the U.S. government wants them to rethink their travel checklists, their behavior — and also, their outfits. It's a part of a new campaign by Sean Duffy, the secretary of transportation, that he called “The Golden Age of Travel Starts With You.”

The reason no one should ultimately care about Mamdani meeting with Trump is because Mamdani knows full well all you gotta do is walk in there, say some shit like "looking radiant as ever, Mr. President," and he'll turn on the magical federal funds hose with zero concessions.

Sorry but wasn't there a huge outcry the last time people tried to dox JK Rowling like this
An enormous wall of trash about 500 feet in length and up to four stories tall was recently discovered near a highway in the English countryside, leading to a national outcry across Britain. nyti.ms/4oP3vbP

A lot of joy to be found on the job in the little kids who smile and wave at you, or the excited families who see you bringing a last minute gift to their door. But hands down, without doubt, the single greatest part of the job has been discovering the bizarre world of hyper specific trade magazines

Having a postal worker get crushed inside a giant mail sorting machine only to have USPS release a short statement confirming that mail operations have not been hindered is maybe the most On Brand Thing USPS has ever done.
everything about this is horrifying.

Democrats should have made a much bigger deal out of this reform when they initiated it, and should be making a big deal out of it now that it's being rolled back. This is the kind of populist shit people gobble up, and it really underscores how hollow and fake Trump's populist appeals are.
Airlines in the US must refund passengers for canceled flights, but are not required to compensate customers for delays. The European Union, Canada, Brazil and Britain all have airline delay compensation rules.

Every single day, the 900,000th worst thing a Trump admin employee might do that day is a thing that the right wing media would dedicate a news cycle to covering if a democrat did it. A tweet like this would have been used to indict the entire democratic party as slandering "real Americans"
