The #PostOffice is just another privatization target for the #GOP. Turning it into our enemy is of course a see-through tactic. We're going to unprivatize. And decentralize the privatize. Y'all got to learn how to be legal thieves. Take all your money back.

@peterbrown Sainsbury's and Facewatch deny this is a computer error. Unfortunately, after the Post Office scandal, I for one am not remotely inclined to believe them. People seem to find it incredibly hard to believe technology can go wrong, or even acknowledge that it might, and common sense goes out of the window. Black becomes white. It's infuriating!

What's funny is that the mailbox is reasonably straight while the legs are comically wonky.

Hype for the Future 258/284: ZIP Code Numering
Overview With the development of the postal system, in general ZIP codes today increase alphabetically in many suburban prefixes and in era of development and location in many inner-urban prefixes, with many lower codes within a prefix either early in the alphabet or closest to a central business district in question and many higher codes further removed. Also of interest are geographically-defined ZIP code prefixes.https://novatopflex.wordpress.com/2026/07/18/hype-for-the-future-258-284-zip-code-numering/

My first decision made when writing "Lena and Miss Cawkwell" was that Lena would be the village postmistress during the war. All that cycling around the village and surrounding farms met her needs in more ways than one! My research led me to not only the Home Front but also the Front Lines with the PO Rifles. Please drop by my blog and read about it here: https://juliebozza.com/lena-and-miss-cawkwell-the-post-office/
I'd love to know what you think!

Constitution vs. Your Mailbox
I keep watching people argue about the United States Postal Service like it’s some sacred, untouchable relic carved into stone tablets. It’s not. It’s a government service. Those get rewritten more often than bad sitcom plots. Here’s the part nobody bothers to read before firing off hot takes: the United States Constitution doesn’t guarantee USPS as it exists today. Not even close. What it actually does is give Congress permission. That’s it. A bureaucratic green light. In […]https://ericfoltin.com/2026/04/27/constitution-vs-your-mailbox/
