a small piece of good news

I reordered some circumflatulation supplies from the same place in Virginia as last time. Pre-fuckery USPS delivery time? Three to five days. Last month? Fourteen days. This month? Three days. Don't mess with the US Mail.

I'm so upset about the post office. My mom works for the post office and she's worried she's going to lose her pension. :(

It hadn't occurred to me that that's a possibility, but these days? Of course it is. Goddamn.

[novel_machinist]

Yeah. The post office is required to PRE-fund their pensions. That's been a major problem for them as they get no government funding at all. If they go private, what happens to those funds? Do the employees get them?

I'm not hopeful :(

I had to google 'circumflatulation' and was a little embarrassed b/c I thought it might be something kinky that I am too out of touch to know about. Good word.
