I carry the mail. The Girl In The Fuzzy Pink Blanket. Writes words, loves dogs, plays games. Certain as a lost dog pondering a signpost. She/they.

How was work? Here's what my truck looked like at the start of the day.

Time to make my coffee and prepare to confront whatever horrific mess awaits me for Amazon Sunday this week. 😬

Just got a 5-player Royal Fumble final in solos, I didn't even know that piece of shit final was still in this game.

I'm already home! Today was almost the complete opposite of yesterday- hardly any mail, I was on one of the easiest routes we have, and I had barely any parcels. Even with lunch and frequent hyrdration breaks I got it done in less than 5 hours, then took an hour off another carrier.

Don't see a new Techmoan video on my YouTube home page this morning, but I've only watched about an hour of Jeff's new NES rankings episode (in which he gets through exactly one game, Ikari Warriors II: Victory Road) and that's 3 and a half hours long, so maybe it's for the best. 😝

To no one's surprise, the day after the holiday was horrendous for mail. I was on the Other Overburdened Route, 12 trays of DPS (I got it down to 9 by moving some mail around), 7 trays of pulldown, 2 full hampers of parcels plus 4 more chonks that wouldn't fit in the hampers.

"What does my top 10 artists on LastFM say about me?"... it says this is the music I like, what the fuck else do you expect? This subreddit's full of the most insecure motherfuckers I've ever seen, it's pathetic.

Good to know that my mobility aids are what make me unfit for any position of power or influence. For, as we all know, once you're a cripple, you're basically brain dead, too. Critique Biden for a host of things he's done, not for the spectre of perhaps needing a damn rollator.
IMO this is a straight-up ageist and ableist image, no?

A ton of people in the U.S. use mobility aids (I use a rollator sometimes) and the number of people who have loved ones who use them has gotta be huge. Hoping this blatant ableism doesn’t fly with people.

I've had enough wine tonight that one of the hosts of my favorite podcast is going to block me before it's all over, just you wait. 😝

Made one of those 5x5 charts for a post on the LastFM subreddit, and Camila Cabello somehow ended up in my top 5 for the week. You can't say I'm not committed to figuring out WHY I don't like an album.

Fireworks have started, dogs aren't barking, I'm a little surprised considering they go into fits over fucking NOTHING every morning before my alarm goes off.

This is how it's done, but it's a little too late for us to learn the lesson here.

Of course now I have to post the comic based on the tweet shown in that reskeet, because that's actually where I first encountered it.

As the world's most devoted (and possibly only?) Ang Lee hater, I'm not sure if the problem is straight directors in general or just him. Go watch The Ice Storm to understand what I mean. Or try to watch it. I couldn't.
we need a moratorium on straight people doing gay movies til we can figure out what’s going on

I've now opened this bottle of wine, which is probably a terrible mistake since I have to work tomorrow and the day after a holiday's always a shitshow. But it tastes really good. 😝
So I went to bed before 9 last night, because I was so wiped out from working 8 days in a row, didn't even open the bottle of wine I got on my way home, woke up somewhere around 5. 😐

Listening to this again now and it's so good, still can't understand how I didn't see that immediately.
"Could go to hell but we'll probably be fine", Roan sings on "Naked in Manhattan", and that's kind of the overall theme of this record. Yeah, I was unfair at the start but I'm fully on board now, I get it. This album's pretty great!

A lot of rotten people are seizing on the Gaiman allegations in order to score points against the groups and politics he publicly supported. Please do not let this trick your animal brain into thinking he isn't guilty. The publishing world has horror stories about this guy going back decades.

People unironically posting Naomi Shihab Nye’s famous fireworks poem today “No Explosions”. Nye is a Palestinian-American poet and this poem is perhaps most apt for #July4 for the US but everyday in Palestine.

Found the wildest thread so far on r/USPS: CCA was supposedly carrying 2-3 full routes undertime, but was really just delivering SPRs and parcels and bringing back ALL the mail and dumping it in missorted. What the fuck?

Lmao they just changed the title of the piece from “Why I don’t vote” to “Why I won’t vote” rather than tell readers that the guy actually does vote

The Nick Cave who made Junkyard is dead and his body is being piloted by a Zionist like a Gundam, but I am alive and understand the spirit of the genius scuzz trash music he made better than he does at this point.
I want to remind everyone: It's PERFECTLY OKAY to still love art made by people who turn out to be terrible. It's good not to SUPPORT those people, once you know they've done horrible things, but the WORK ITSELF lives in your heart and you own it as much as anyone else does.

The funny side of music snobbery! Also I love that Puccini had a critic who hated him so much as to be described as his nemesis, opera's not that different from pop music after all.
Tosca is like Saw in a way.
