if USPS has a million fans, I'm one of them

if USPS has 5 fans, I'm one of them

if USPS has 1 fan, that is me

if USPS has no fans, I'm no longer alive

if the world is against USPS I'm against the entire world

till my last breath I support USPS

I joke but actually USPS is the literal lifeline for so many housebound disabled people who receive lifesaving medications through it- especially housebound people in rural areas. so many private shipping companies do not serve rural areas. try getting anyone else to drive hours into the middle of nowhere to deliver. try it. not all disabled people live in urban areas. USPS saves disabled lives ‼️ without USPS many housebound disabled people will die.

USPS is a disability rights issue

watched the stalks of a lavender bush by the bus stop dip and sway from the sheer amount of fat little bumblebees on it and you know what. some things in this world are good

You can always spot which Tumblr users migrated over here from LiveJournal because we consistently call the Read More button ‘the cut’.

and another thing actually,

jaime is just an endless cycle of dreaming that life could be like the songs, having his dreams crushed, and then dreaming that maybe life actually could be like the songs anyway.

he spends his childhood dreaming of being a legendary knight and within two months of becoming a knight at 15 he ends up alone in king's landing at the behest of a psychopath rapist who burns people to death for funzies.

despite this, he is still always striving to be the perfect honourable knight but does struggle because all of his oaths are constantly contradicting each other.

  • protect the king and your sister - the king is raping and beating your sister
  • obey your father obey the king - the king wants you to go behead your father
  • protect the king and the innocent - the king has ordered the destruction of an entire city full of innocent people

it goes on and on but he never gives up trying to be that ideal knight he dreams of. even while disillusioned and even when people constantly misinterpret his actions and assume the worst of his motivations.

  • he names his sword oathkeeper and gives it to brienne so that she can protect sansa stark with the remnants of her father's blade
  • he works hard to learn to fight again with his left hand and fantasizes about being called 'goldenhand the just'
  • when given the choice between retirement as the lord of casterly rock, and continuing to serve in the kingsguard, he chooses to continue serving in the kingsguard
  • he says sansa stark is his last chance of honour and then drops everything when offered the chance to go save her

That’s funny, ‘cause if I’m being honest, all week, I’ve just been so sad. I just feel like my expectations were too high, or… I just feel like, as you get older, you have to justify your life, you know? And your choices. And… when I’m with you guys, it’s just so, like… like, transparent what my choices were, and my mistakes. I have no belief system. And I… Well, I mean, I’ve had a lot of them, but… I mean, work was my religion for forever, but I definitely lost my belief there. And then — And then I tried love, and that was just a painful religion, just made everything worse. And then, even for me, just, like, being a mother, that didn’t save me either.

The affected voters — those whose paperwork was mishandled and whose voter files lacked their SSN and driver's license — have until FIRDAY, APRIL 18th to contact their local board of elections and attempt to cure their ballot. If you voted in North Carolina last November, you can check whether your vote has been challenged at "The Griffin List" website: link.

Speaking as a native North Carolinian: Allison Riggs won. Griffin is a crybaby who is trying to cheat the system any way he can. Check for your name if you voted in NC and make sure that Riggs stays on the court. The NC legislature has already tried to strip as much power away from former Gov. Cooper and now Gov. Josh Stein, and Griffin wants to make it so that Stein is unable to perform the duties of his office. The Republican Party has played dirty in NC politics for decades and we have to ensure that the checks and balances of power in North Carolina are fair and balanced and if we set a precedent that votes can be thrown out without due diligence, we set a precedence of corruption.

Check your name and make sure that your vote counted!!!
