Together we can share a little joy, and collect data on USPS delivery times.
How it works:
- You sign up
- I mail a sticker to you
- You tell me when it arrives

Just in time to wank with voting: USPS conducts performance audits. This one is for Alabama/Mississippi. Read 'em and weep.

New Complaint Filed Alleging that U.s. Postal Service (USPS) Committed Electoral Fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election
#New #Complaint Filed Alleging that #US #Postal #Service ( #USPS ) #Committed #Electoral #Fraud in the #2020 #Presidential #Election
"A new development that merits attention. A complaint was filed on Friday before the U.S. District Court in Maryland presenting evidence that the USPS acted illegally in shipping at least one million mail-in ballots from a facility in Bethpage, New York to Pennsylvania on October 21, 2020. The suit was brought by attorney Brian Della Rocca, but the critical evidence was collected by two friends of mine — John Moynihan and Larry Doyle. Full disclosure, I have known John since 1998 and we were partners in BERG Associates, LLC. John, in my opinion, is one of the best financial and forensic investigators in the world. Hands down."

#FedEx doesn't deliver to Post Office Boxes. Until this week. It took phone calls and a few heated words with FedEx, but I stated other carriers like #UPS do this every day, and gave them simple instructions how to do it, simply pull up to the back dock and someone will sign for it. But this FedEx driver had a longer visit as #USPS set their system up to communicate with theirs. Now I got my package safely and not dropped off who knows where. It pays to move things up the ladder until management listens and is willing to revisit policy. The long fight with FedEx is over and now all my packages will seamlessly arrive safely.
Some potentially good news for the USPS. And the rest of us.
Trump's out of office, but DeJoy's still running the Postal Service to the ground. That changes now
FTA: ... Almost three years after Trump appointed Louis DeJoy as U.S. Postmaster General, the wealthy Republican donor's plans to privatize the Postal Service are in full force.
That's because the U.S. Postal Service Board of Governors—the only entity that can actually fire DeJoy—has not replaced him. But two of the current members' terms have expired, and President Joe Biden can nominate replacements who would flip the board of governors' current pro-DeJoy majority. [emphasis mine]
^^ So that's the (potentially) good news. (The article links to a petition you can sign [for all the good it'll do] to encourage Biden to appoint anti-DeJoy USPS governors.)
And here's the Why the fuck was this allowed to happen in the first place?? news:
DeJoy is the first postmaster general in nearly two decades who has not been a career postal employee. He owned a logistics business that was a longtime contractor with the Postal Service, and has financial stakes with many of Postal Service’s competitors.
That alone creates a major conflict of interest, and we have seen this played out in the past three years of his tenure. [emphasis mine]
Read the article in its entirety if you're not sure why DeJoy's departure removal would be a good thing for every sane American.
