Obviously people like us who depend on the mail for mags should be beyond thankful for the job that the USPS does day in and day out getting us what we need. But now they're facing both delivering the mail during a global pandemic AND they're running out of money, plus some are getting sick. the federal government has (not surprisingly) shown little desire to help them out financially. there's no easy answers here, but in the short term you can buy stamps or even just say thank you! i assume some of you actually know your mailman and interact with them. if that's the case, let them know you appreciate the job they're doing in these extremely trying times. i live in a large building and don't actually know my mailman, so i put a note of gratitude and a $5 bill in my mailbox that they're sure to see the next time they open it, whoever they are. it's not much but it's something, and we should all let them know the job they're doing is very much appreciated.

anyway, thank you for coming to my TED talk.

 
Couldn't agree more!! I always tip our postman for xmas and I will do the same for other carriers as well.....been doing it for as long as I can remember. Now they are getting no additional pay and they are on the front lines doing a thankless job similar to those checking out groceries as the world succumbs to a global pandemic! 

 
@PB&Jelly I agree with you I always tip my postman and garbage man at Christmas. I have missed you so much! I loved talking to you about music we were listening to. I know everyone said Radiohead was the best OK Computer and Kid A are amongst my favorites. What about The Grateful Dead , Blind Melon and Modest Mouse as well as others! I would love to talk to you. You were missed so much while I was sick. I hope we get the fave music thread up and going again! BTW where is @Jellopanda sje turned me onto music in her country.is she sill around?

Love and missed you @PB&Jelly

  10. T @ Thedoccc: Hey y'all, wanted to tell you that I signed that second contract I was hoping for. Which should keep me afloat for the rest of the year, and hopefully 2026 if all goes well. Appreciate your encouragement, love, prayers and out reach. I was really feeling low last week and needed that extra bit of <3
  11. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: hahhah right on man. they spent so much bread.
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: Could b worse dude could be a met fan right now 😂 that payroll and no playoffs 😳 I kinda feel bad for em such an insane collapse and so insanely opposite of what happened last year with them starting terrible then catching fire all the way to the nlcs
  13. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: That Texas playoff series last year crushed out spirits lmao. They wrecked us.
  14. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: No you're pretty much spot on. We've been playing better since the firing of Hyde but I think it's just coincidence. Even though he was terrible at putting the correct relievers in at the wrong time.
  15. L @ Layne_Cobain: Exactly didn’t make a good enough offer to Burnes to keep him and didn’t go after any other top pitching then when things were over come deadline traded away a bunch altho I don’t think any of them besides O’hearn and maybe a reliever or two were doing that well but I could be remembering wrong
  16. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: *bucks
  17. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Just needed pitching. And mister big buks didn't spend sh1it hahhaha.
  18. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: We were stacked and ready to go.
  19. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: I'm in the same boat as you. The blame goes on the owner and Elias (our GM)
  20. L @ Layne_Cobain: I was just thinking that bro I honestly didn’t think Hyde was all that bad but when things go south it’s usually the managers on the chopping block to make the point …I think there’s some decent managers out there looking for a spot
