It’s not “losing money” any more than air traffic controllers or public highways or street lights or fire departments are “losing money.” It is a government service. It’s not SUPPOSED to make money. It’s supposed to reliably deliver to anywhere in the US, even the unprofitable places.
The USPS faces a tight squeeze. With fewer people using the mail, it’s lost more and more money: $9 billion in the 12 months ending in September alone.

If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career

The ban on trans kids’ healthcare is likely DOA in the senate. It probably isn’t going to become law.
That said? You should be furious with these evil motherfuckers.
We owe these terrorized kids a better world.
For their sake, don’t ever fucking let the GOP win “to send a message” again.

Call your senators when you can, folks. It's late for a lot of the US, but the fight's not over.
BREAKING: The House of Representatives passed a bill that would criminalize gender-affirming care for transgender youth under 18 and put doctors in prison for providing this care.
This bill is an unjustifiable threat to the well-being of trans youth and their families. The Senate must reject it.

I had to watch Alabama's ban on gender affirming care for minors go into effect. It impacted multiple people in my life. It is cruel beyond words.
Pick up the phone. Call all of your reps. Don't tell me it won't matter--I call Tommy Tuberville. EVERY FUCKIN' TIME. I won't gift them silence on this.

This is possibly the most significant attack on trans rights in this country yet, and I can count the number of posts on my timeline about this on my hands.
If you're trying to dismiss this thinking "It'll die in the senate," DON'T! Sound the alarms now!

1. Led by Elon Musk, the far-right has exploded in a campaign to get Netflix to remove shows with queer and trans characters.
If Netflix capitulates to their demands, an already strained market for LGBTQ+ animators might become even more dire.
